Chapter 203;

Seeing them like this, Lu Yaoyao didn't explain anything, just got up and went to the study, took out a book, opened it, and handed it to Lao Kang.

"Look at it."

Lao Kang took the book in doubt, and his pupils shrank when he saw it.

"Will it really appear?"

"I don't know, but judging from this record, there is a high probability that it will appear. You don't need me to tell you that this thing is terrible."

The conversation between the two left Qiushuang and Qiuyu puzzled.

"Miss, what are you talking about?"

Lu Yaoyao went to the seat just now and sat down.

"As the old saying goes, locusts are born in extreme drought. According to records, there was once seven years ago, and it was still a small scale."

"You all know how big this drought is now. Although I don't know if it will happen now, but if it happens? How big a disaster will it be?"

"We have to take precautions before they happen. Besides, we don't have no place to consume those chickens and ducks."

"As far as I know, our Baizhen Building consumes more than two hundred chickens and ducks every day."

"What is twenty or thirty thousand?"

"And isn't this just buying wheat? If it doesn't show up by then, we can also feed it with wheat first, and we won't lose money."

At this time, Lao Kang carefully thought about what she said, and made some calculations in his heart, and then nodded repeatedly.

It's just that he still doesn't understand, why buy chickens and ducks?
"Miss, what is an extreme drought and a locust?"

"The plague of locusts."

Qiu Shuang turned her head to look at Qiu Yu and spit out two words.

"A plague of locusts?"

Qiu Shuang trembled all over, she had seen this thing before, the densely packed locusts, thinking about it now, her scalp was numb.

"Yes, every year of severe drought, there will be a high probability of locust plagues. You all know how severe the drought this year is."

"There are too many places covered, even if there is no place in the capital, but what about other places?"

"When this thing appears, it will become a piece, and it will move. Who knows if it will come to the capital by then?"

The three of Lao Kang nodded repeatedly, which is really hard to say.

Just seven years ago, it wasn't a problem in the capital, but didn't the locusts also fly over from other places?

"Then why buy chickens and ducks?"

"Of course it is to prevent locust plagues. When the time comes, let's ask the people in the village to circle some fences on the edge of the field and form a circle."

"Enclose all the fields in it. If there is a plague of locusts, not only the chickens and ducks can be eaten up, but some of them can be eaten, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the three of them suddenly realized, and then they thought, this thing is really feasible.

"Will the twenty or thirty thousand be a little less, or five or sixty thousand?"

Lao Kang thought for a while and proposed.

Although Lu Yaoyao's farm has only [-] mu of land, as far as other farms in the capital are concerned, the crops are almost dead by drought. If locusts really come, the green crops in their farm will definitely attract locusts The place.

"That's fine. Anyway, we can slowly consume this thing ourselves. We won't lose money, but we have to trouble someone to take care of it."

"It doesn't matter, we don't send people in the village now."

"Okay, you can arrange it. As for the fences and fences, you can see if there is any free time among the people outside the village. Pay the wages and let the big guys work together."

Lao Kang nodded again and again.

After asking some other questions, he retreated, and then hurriedly found the people in the village and started to discuss.

As soon as the heavy rain stopped, everyone inside and outside the village took action.

The next day, more than [-] shimai had already been delivered to the village.

Looking at the piles of wheat, Qiu Yu was a little puzzled.

"Miss, this stuff is cheap, but isn't it too much for you to buy so many?"

She wanted to ask, did she burn too much money and panicked?

"You don't understand, just watch carefully later, Miss Ben will teach you how to turn decay into magic."

Wheat is a good thing, but direct boiling and steaming are not so good.

But if it is turned into flour, there are too many things that can be done.

Leaving aside the delicate pastries, let’s just talk about steamed buns, which are good things that can satisfy your hunger.

Three pennies a catty of wheat, and then grind it into flour, that can make a lot of big steamed buns.

Earned, earned big.

Now people outside don't know the usefulness of this wheat, which made her pick up such a big bargain.

"Miss, what you want is ready."

In the distance, Qiushuang walked quickly towards this side.

"Come on, let's watch your lady do magic tricks for you."

Lu Yaoyao brought the two of them to the kitchen. Last night, she had asked someone to get some wheat to grind into flour, and then according to the results of the search, she got some yeast.

After working in the kitchen for more than an hour, a basket of big steamed buns exuding a fresh wheat fragrance came out.

Seeing these white and tender buns, everyone in the kitchen was shocked and curious.

They never expected that Maizi would become like this in the hands of their young lady.

Lu Yaoyao finally picked up a steamed bun and took a bite. It was soft and fragrant, really good.

"Don't be dazed, try to see if it tastes good."

When she spoke, Qiu Yu hurriedly took a steamed bun and bit it down.

"Is this really made of wheat?"

It was said that Lu Yaoyao rolled her eyes, but she asked someone to prepare all the materials. Who in the kitchen didn't know?

Are you stupid to say such things at this time?

Qiushuang also took a sip, also shocked.

"good to eat."

"This is delicious, miss, you are really amazing."

Those people in the kitchen also tasted it at this time, and they all gave a thumbs up in admiration.

Originally cheap and unpalatable wheat, after a change, it can still make such delicious food.

Most importantly, this thing is still hungry.

"Have you all learned the production method just now?"

Everyone nodded.

"Then hurry up and get busy. People inside and outside the village at noon today will have a steamed bun for lunch."

After getting her order, everyone started to get busy.

If there is not enough manpower, we ask the wives of other households in the village to help.

At noon that day, there was an extra white and fat steamed bun for lunch in the whole village.

Except for Lu Yaoyao's master and servant, and the people in the kitchen who had tasted it a long time ago, everyone else looked confused and curious when they saw this thing.

"What the hell is this?"

"The white and fat ones are pretty good-looking, are they for food?"

"That's for sure."

"But what kind of action is this?"

"It should be rice noodles."

"No, rice noodles can make such a white pastry?"

"It doesn't matter what they are made of, if the lady can still harm us, I will try it first."

Everyone is talking.

There is one person taking the lead, and the big guys are not talking nonsense, no matter whether it is people inside or outside the village, they all trust Lu Yaoyao very much.

"Delicious, this thing is delicious."
