Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 311 Yuzhou Insect Plague (Part [-])
Not long after Emperor Qianwu left, Li Changfeng also returned home.

This matter is not enough for him to stare at it himself.

the next day.

Li Changfeng woke up naturally after sleeping, and was going to visit the air force base after breakfast.

After all, Emperor Ganwu entrusted him with such an important matter, and he didn't go to see it for almost a month, which is a bit unreasonable.

On the way, the chat of two servants caught his attention.

"The past two years have been full of disasters. Shangzhou was flooded last summer, and Yuzhou was plagued by insects this summer!"

"Who says it's not? Our Highness solved the flood last year, but who will solve the pest problem?"

"Your Majesty has issued an announcement to solicit solutions from all over the world to solve this pest, and perhaps a solution will be found soon."

"Difficult! I don't think so! I heard that it is very big and runs very fast in the paddy fields. It is too difficult to catch."

Hearing this, Li Changfeng couldn't help frowning.

For pests, he really has nothing to do.

In the current world, the development of pesticides is still too far away, and it is bad luck to encounter such a thing.

He was about to leave when the next chat between the two servants caught his attention.

"Hey... that thing is too big, thicker than a thumb, with two big pincers, it looks very powerful at first glance, how can the rice seedlings withstand the disaster!"

"Who says it's not? I heard that the pliers of this thing are quite powerful, and can easily pinch anyone's fingers!"

Hearing this, Li Changfeng was stunned for a moment, stopped in his tracks, and asked in surprise, "Is the pest you're talking about as thick as a thumb and red all over?"

The two servants hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Your Highness, I heard that it is indeed red, but it seems to be dark red, thicker than a thumb, densely packed with many legs, it sounds scary!"

"Yes, I heard that the magistrate of Yuzhou sent a basket to His Majesty. His Majesty summoned many ministers to discuss countermeasures, but there was no way."

Li Changfeng became even more suspicious.

Could it be that thing is not working?
If so... that would be great.

Thinking of this, Li Changfeng showed some anticipation.

"Prepare the car, my prince is going to the palace!"

Since Emperor Qianwu has it, you have to go and confirm it yourself.

Seeing Li Changfeng's leaving back, the two servants looked at each other, both a little surprised.

"Your Highness hastily entered the palace after hearing about this matter. Could it be that there is a way to deal with this pest?"

"Well, that's right, it must be, our Highness is an omnipotent existence!"

……

Royal study.

More than a dozen important officials in the court looked at the densely packed pests in the basket, helpless.

Emperor Qianwu had his hands behind his back and looked at everyone with a gloomy expression.

"You are all ministers of my great power, so there is nothing you can do? Are you going to watch Yuzhou's millions of acres of fertile land fail?"

The officials bowed their heads in silence, not daring to speak.

If they had a way, they would have mentioned it to Emperor Qianwu yesterday, so why wait until today?

Seeing that the officials were silent, Feng Quji had no choice but to say: "This kind of natural disaster is the same as the locust plague. There has been no good solution since ancient times. The only way I can think of now is to let someone catch it. It is so big, at least bigger than the locust plague." Locusts are much easier to catch."

Gu Tiancheng, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, sighed and said: "My old man's hometown also has this thing, don't look at this thing that runs slowly on land, but it runs very slippery in water, although it is not small, it is not easy to catch at all! "

The other ministers also nodded in agreement.

"The paddy field is full of water, so we can't let it go and catch it, right? How can the seedlings in the paddy field grow like this?"

"Yes, if you release water, they will run into the ditch, and if you store water, they will come in again. How do you catch them?"

"The announcement has been posted for so long, and no one has come up with a solution. I'm afraid it's... hey!"

"..."

Hearing what everyone said, Emperor Qianwu couldn't help but secretly sighed.

Thinking that he fought south and north to conquer this great world, he could easily destroy the army of millions in the previous dynasty, but now he is stumped by this little bug.

At this moment, the door of the imperial study room was suddenly pushed open, and Li Changfeng hurried in.

"Father, what kind of pests are you talking about? My son wants to take a look!"

Everyone knew that Li Changfeng had the privilege of directly facing the saint without passing through, so he was not surprised by his appearance.

What puzzled the officials was why Li Changfeng had such a look of joy and anticipation on his face?
Could it be that there was a pest plague in Yuzhou, and he was very happy?
Emperor Ganwu also noticed this, and was annoyed in his heart, but he didn't say anything in front of so many ministers, and pointed to the basket on the ground.

"Here it is, see for yourself."

Li Changfeng stepped forward quickly, lifted the lid of the bamboo basket, and was overjoyed.

"Haha! Good, good!"

That's right, there are crayfish in the basket!
And the size is not small, especially the pliers, it is really too big, the meat inside must be indispensable, this would be a rare commodity in the previous life.

Now most of them are dead, and there are only a dozen or so alive. Li Changfeng can't just watch them die and look up at Gao Dali.

"Old Gao, get a basin, put some water in it, remember to make it cooler, it's best to put some ice cubes, put them in it, don't die!"

Gao Dali looked dull: "This..."

The ministers were stunned.

His Highness the Ninth Prince actually treats this pest as a treasure?
I'm afraid I'm not crazy!

Everyone secretly looked at Emperor Qianwu, watching his expression.

Emperor Qianwu's face was so gloomy that the water was about to drip out, and he snapped, "Bastard! Do you know that this is a pest? Do you know that this pest will make Yuzhou's crops worthless?! Do you know how many people this pest will eat?" Unfed?!"

Emperor Qianwu asked again and again, feeling very disappointed.

He had great expectations for Li Changfeng. It was fine for Li Changfeng to be careless and out of shape on weekdays, but how could this be the case today?
How do people in the world think of him if he doesn't take the livelihood of the people of Yuzhou seriously?

Li Changfeng was stunned for a moment, and then he understood why Emperor Qianwu got angry, he laughed and said: "Father, my son came here to solve this matter!"

Emperor Ganwu frowned, originally wanted to reprimand him to back down, but thought that what Li Changfeng is best at is what others can't do, so he held a glimmer of hope and said: "There is no joke before, this kind of thing is not a joke, Do you really have a way?"

At this time, all the ministers also turned their attention to Li Changfeng, their faces full of suspicion.

This is a pest, not an enemy.

You can't blow it up with a cannon, can you?

"Of course there is a way!" Li Changfeng laughed, "My son can not only eliminate this harm, but also make the people of Yuzhou make a lot of money!"

Emperor Qianwu couldn't believe it.

Can the people of Yuzhou make a lot of money?
Just outrageous!
All the ministers thought the same way, and no one believed his words.
