Chapter 1731 Five Volumes 38 Having Fun in Hardship (7 More)
The emperor nodded obediently, "What Huang Ernie said is true. The common people live on the fields, and who would like to see locusts ruin their livelihood for a year. Therefore, the common people naturally put all their efforts to attack the locusts... It can be seen that the effect is minimal, so the The son had to send officials to supervise."

"It's not that the people don't try their best. The people are still superior in numbers, but they can't be effective. So the son thought, maybe the son and the ministers used the wrong method."

The empress dowager was also worried about the locust plague for many days, so she couldn't help but stare at her son, "Emperor, tell me in detail."

The emperor nodded and said, "...the migratory locusts are a disaster, and the people generally regard it as a natural disaster. When the people go to hunt the locusts, it is like using human power to fight against the will of heaven. Because of the lack of confidence, the people are prone to exhaustion, and then arouse fear of disaster."

The empress dowager also nodded, "Yes. Not to mention the common people, even the imperial court has been exhausted in the past few months, and everyone's heart is like a boulder?"

The emperor bowed his head, and in front of him was Jiu'er's sweet smile again.

"...The people in this world are all ordinary people. Who doesn't fear the heavens? Who hasn't been discouraged and unable to bear the pressure? But Lord, think about it in a different direction. If you change this matter into a piece of fun, don't you all How about fighting against heaven with manpower, but just playing with each other?"

"It's just like what the slave is doing today. He took the emperor's heirs to play in the fields, and the children all fought bravely to be the first. After catching these grasshoppers, the slave made different dishes for different people, and called them I tasted it and found it delicious, so if I mention it again to catch locusts, everyone will not feel so heavy?"

"The slave thought, can the emperor send some royal cooks, or recruit some cooks from the local area, set up a stove in the field where the officials supervise the locust hunting, and fry and roast the caught grasshoppers on the spot Go? The aroma of the cooked grasshopper is so compelling that the common people can smell it on the spot."

"When it's time to eat, these ready-made grasshoppers are distributed to the people to eat. First, it solves the rations, and second, it also allows the people to taste the taste of meat, so that they understand that there is such a joy in hunting locusts. The emperor thought, if they are asked to hunt locusts again, will it be as heavy as before?"

He remembered that he was dumbfounded when he heard it on the spot, and asked her with straight eyebrows, "Is this okay?"

Wanxi shrugged with a smile, "Why not? The slaves have already tried with the princes and princesses, and the clan Jueluos. They are the most delicate and expensive people in the world. Didn't they all flop around in the fields before, fighting for the first place?"

Her eyes were like glass, she stared at him and smiled, "...Even the emperor and the empress dowager also like this bite? You two have eaten the most delicacies from mountains and seas in this world, and they are the two most difficult to serve. If you pass the level of the two of you, everyone in the world will love to eat it!"

At that moment, he really could only laugh, unable to refute.

It was only after a while that I couldn't help worrying again, "You are smart, this time, apart from deliberately feeding me whole heads and tails of locusts, what you gave to the empress dowager was made into sauce; what you gave to the prince and princess was cooked The steamed stuffed buns are made into meat floss pastry for the inner court, so that they can’t even tell that they are grasshoppers; but if the people see that they are full of heads and tails, they dare not eat them, so what should they do? manage?"

Wanxi lowered her head and thought carefully, "...then the emperor will give you money, can't you?"

The emperor frowned, "Give me money?"

Wanxi nodded, "Using these grasshoppers to make food has saved the court and the local government rations. The money calculated from this ration is enough to pay the people. I didn't ask the emperor and the local government to spend extra money~"
