Your Majesty, Madam called you to farm

Chapter 206: Chapter [-]: Mass production of matches and throwing them into the disaster area

"Of course I have time now, so Miss Rao Shi will show it to me." With a smile on her face, she continued, "I have already sent someone to try to drive away locusts with fire."

"The local officials said that it is very effective. As long as the fire is lit, the locusts that were still eating food in the field will immediately leave in fear."

"This fire is extremely effective against the locusts, and the local officials also tried to use fire to kill the locusts. It is really easy to use. It can cut grass and roots, but it is just that fire is not convenient to use."

"I was worrying about how to use this fire conveniently. Miss Shi has just entered the palace, and it has relieved my urgent need. Let me take a look now."

Shi Mishuang didn't expect that the fire was indeed extremely effective against locust disasters, and he had a smile on his face: "Since the fire is effective, it's fine, as long as it is effective, there is no problem."

"Your Majesty, our display cannot be in your imperial study, otherwise it will be very troublesome if there is a fire. How about we find an empty place, so that it will be convenient for the display."

The emperor was only thinking about the convenience of using the fire, so he nodded immediately, "Then go outside, the place outside is big, and it won't be easy to burn."

So the three of them went outside, and when they got there, Shi Mishuang held the wooden stick in his hand and then used flint and fire, and it caught fire quickly.

The emperor was very pleasantly surprised, and with indescribable joy on his face, he said: "Okay, okay, Miss Shi is really capable, and she can even handle fire so conveniently, she is really a talent .”

"According to Miss Shi, the use of this fire will no longer be a problem, and the fire stick in your hand is also very useful when dealing with locusts. Wonderful, wonderful."

Seeing that the emperor was so happy, Shi Mishuang immediately extinguished the fire, and said seriously to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it is very simple to make such a thing, and this kind of flint is also very common, but the most important thing among them is sulfur. "

"As long as the emperor is willing to supply sulfur, the women of the people can make a lot of these things. This is also a good solution to the locust disaster."

The emperor looked at Shi Mishuang with a firm face in front of him, and couldn't help but smiled lovingly from the heart and said, "I can't ask for what Miss Shi said. As long as Miss Shi is willing to make a large amount of sulfur, how much does Miss Shi want?" how many."

Shi Mishuang was very happy when he heard the emperor's answer, and immediately thanked the Lord for his kindness: "The daughters of the people thank the emperor for his grace. It is a blessing for the people to have a monarch like the emperor."

"Minnv thanked the emperor for the people in the locust-stricken areas. As long as the emperor took out the sulfur, the minnv would go back to make it, and she would be able to make a lot soon."

But the emperor shook his head, Shi Mishuang originally thought that the emperor's words were reversed, but unexpectedly the emperor said: "How can we leave all this matter to Miss Shi."

"I still have a lot of sulfur in my treasury. I will send someone to fetch it. It is enough for Miss Shi to teach my guards in the palace how to make it. I will let them make it."

"The amount needed in the disaster area is too large. Ms. Shi is too hard on her own. Just leave the production to the guards of the Zhen Palace. If there are more people, the return will be faster."

Shi Mishuang was shocked by the emperor's decision. She didn't expect the emperor to care about it so much, and she felt something in her eyes, and she immediately thanked: "What the emperor said is that women must do their best to teach and teach them."

The emperor also nodded in satisfaction, so Shi Mishuang taught the guards in the palace how to make matches, because it was really simple, so he taught it after a while, and all the guards immediately made matches quickly .

It is true that there are many people and strength, and the speed of these guards is also very fast, and they quickly made a lot of matches. Seeing that the number in front of them is already very large, the emperor stopped.

After it was done, the emperor immediately sent guards to take the matches that had been made to the area plagued by locusts, and because he was worried that it was not enough.

They also deliberately took away more than a dozen boxes of sulfur. Now Shi Mishuang and the emperor are relieved and have done what they should do. The next step is to see the performance of local officials in locust-affected areas.

The local officials in the locust-stricken area were also very responsible. On the first day after getting the matches, they gathered all the people together and distributed all these things to the people.

In addition to matches, there are flints, and they are taught how to use them. After teaching all the people, they lead the people to drive the locusts out of the fields.

Everyone has also felt the usefulness of matches. When fire was used to drive away locusts before, the common people also heard about it. Knowing that fire is very effective for locusts, they also have some confidence in their hearts.

But now, after getting so many matches and learning how to use fire, everyone's hearts are full of strength, and now these locust plagues will no longer be a problem.

The people were all energetic and held matches and went to drive away the locusts together. Not only to drive them away, but in order to prevent the locusts from going to other areas, they worked together to drive the locusts into a thatched house with fire.

After burning all these locusts to death with fire, the locust disaster was resolved, and the people were very happy, but for some reason.

The common people also knew that the making of this match was thought up and made by Shi Mishuang, and the common people were full of gratitude to Shi Mishuang.

Shi Mishuang has also gained a great reputation in this area, and this deed has been widely spread, and soon spread to various places. The people are also full of curiosity and gratitude for Shi Mishuang.

After knowing that the locust disaster has been resolved, Shi Mishuang also put down a big stone in his heart. A disaster like this is simply a disaster for the people. Without food, the people will lose everything.

Fortunately, the locust disaster was solved, Shi Mishuang was quite happy, and the emperor was also very happy, so he wanted to reward Shi Mishuang.

But Shi Mishuang didn't want the silver money, and asked the emperor to donate all the money to the areas plagued by locusts to make some contributions to them.

The emperor then sent all the money to the area affected by the locust plague, and Nian gave Shi Mishuang a plaque for his contribution to this matter.
