I, the strongest poisoner, am called the living king of hell by the empress

The first time, the second time.

"Biological control, natural enemies counteract each other?"

Accompanying Gao Yang's words, all the ministers in the imperial study were confused.

Even Wu Zhao frowned, as if recalling the sage books she had read in the past, looking for the meaning of these two words.

But even if she racked her brains, she didn't think of these two words at all.

Cui Xinghe also frowned and asked, "What does this biological control that Mr. Gao said mean?"

"This method is simply unheard of."

Accompanying Cui Xinghe's question, everyone's eyes were all on Gao Yang.

Gao Yang said calmly, "Everything in the world is interdependent and mutually exclusive. Whether it is locusts or other animals, they all have natural enemies, just like mice are afraid of cats, rabbits are afraid of snakes, and insects are afraid of frogs, etc."

"In a place, if a species begins to increase rapidly, it must be because it has too few natural enemies."

"Although locusts are strange, they cannot escape this law. Biological control is based on this idea."

As soon as these words came out.

Wu Zhao's eyes lit up. She was smart and understood Gao Yang's meaning in an instant.

"This idea is quite interesting. Maybe it can really help to solve the siege of Guanzhong!" Wu Zhao said excitedly in her heart.

Her phoenix eyes couldn't help but get hotter.

Not only Wu Zhao, but Cui Xinghe and Xu Xuanji all looked at Gao Yang, waiting for Gao Yang's next words.

"Your Majesty, can you ask for a drink of saliva? I came here in a hurry and my mouth is a little dry. It's just right for me to sort out my thoughts." Gao Yang said to Wu Zhao.

He had been wandering around for the whole afternoon, and took a sip of water in the restaurant. Then, Shangguan Wan'er pulled him into the palace, and he spoke again. His throat felt like it was about to smoke.

Gao Feng's face darkened, "Evil boy, drink after you finish speaking."

He almost fainted from anger.

This was a great opportunity to show off, and all the ministers of Daqian were listening, but this evil boy wanted to drink water.

The other ministers were also very upset.

After attending court for so long, this was the first time they saw a minister asking for water in the imperial study.

Wu Zhao waved her hand, "Give me tea!"

Soon, the eunuch carefully brought a pot of hot tea.

Gao Yang took the tea and took another sip. It was indeed the good tea in the palace. It was full of tea fragrance and extremely mellow.

It tasted good for a while, so Gao Yang took a few more sips.

Wu Zhao: "..."

"Gao Yang, if you like this tea, I will give you some later. Now tell me how to do biological control."

Gao Yang put down the teacup and stopped talking.

"There are two conditions for the formation of locust plagues. First, there must be enough locusts, which must be gray-black or yellow. Second, they gather together."

"To achieve this, it is closely related to the weather. There is no snow in winter, so the eggs cannot be frozen to death. Then there is no rain in spring, which leads to drought. They like drought conditions, but birds that prey on locusts in the wild can hardly survive in drought!"

"The reduction of natural enemies and the suitable environment are the inevitable conditions for locusts to wreak havoc. We cannot change the drought, but we can increase the natural enemies of locusts in the wild."

Everyone fell into contemplation and felt that it made sense.

Gao Yang greeted the courtiers in the Jinluan Palace, looked at the beautiful empress and said, "Your Majesty, my plan is to collect 50,000 chickens and ducks from Chang'an within one day, form a chicken and duck coalition, and rush to Guanzhong."

"A chicken and duck can eat hundreds of locusts a day, and 50,000 can eat 50 million locusts a day. Even if this is an ideal situation, I will cut it in half, and it can still eat tens of millions of locusts!"

"At least hundreds of millions in ten days, or even hundreds of millions."

"At present, the locusts have not grown up yet, they are still eggs. It only takes a few days to reduce them in large numbers!"

"Even if a locust plague still breaks out, the loss of hundreds of millions or even billions of locusts can greatly reduce the harm of the locust plague!"

"This method, I call it biological control!"

Accompanied by Gao Yang's simple words.

Buzz!

The entire Jinluan Palace was instantly plunged into silence.

Cui Xinghe was stunned.

Wu Zhao was stunned.

From Chang'an, 50,000 chickens and ducks were dispatched to Guanzhong to fight against the locust plague with a coalition of chickens and ducks.

These locusts are a disaster for humans, but for chickens and ducks, they are a gift from heaven!

According to Gao Yang, as long as the chicken and duck coalition arrives, the Guanzhong locust plague will be reduced to hundreds of millions in an instant.

Even more!

Living King of Hell, it's really a living King of Hell!

Not only is he a living King of Hell for merchants, but he is also a living King of Hell for locusts!

Wu Zhao smiled with surprise.

Why didn't she think of this trick? If people...

It is very difficult to catch insect eggs that are deep in the ground.

But chickens and ducks need food, so they will find these locust eggs and eat them.

In this way, even if there is a locust plague, the harm will be greatly reduced!

Gao Yang is truly a great talent!

Song Li's eyes were complicated. The playboy he had never looked down on in the past was actually hidden so deeply.

Just relying on these words, he dared to conclude that this method can be tried!

Wang Zhong's face turned pale, and his majestic face was visibly panicked.

So cool!

It’s such a loss!

He actually used chickens and ducks to control locusts. He shouldn't be so quick!

He looked at Cui Xinghe begging for mercy.

"hiss!"

Cui Xinghe also gasped.

Biological control uses chickens and ducks to deal with locusts.

Wu Zhao said in surprise, "This method is very good, but why did I not pay any attention to this method in my career?"

Xu Xuanji frowned, still dubious, and said, "Your Majesty, according to common sense, this shouldn't be the case!"

"If locusts invade in large numbers and chickens and ducks eat the locusts, this method should not have been proposed by an incompetent minister for hundreds of years!"

As soon as this sentence came out.

A group of ministers also echoed.

The main reason is that Gao Yang's views are too advanced, so they find it hard to believe it.

Wu Zhao looked at Xu Xuanji and frowned.

As the prime minister, Xu Xuanji had no choice but to obstruct her, which made her very unhappy.

But before she could reprimand her, Gao Yang spoke up and said, "What Prime Minister Xu said is not unreasonable, but in fact, the reason has already been said."

"Because solitary locusts and gregarious locusts are two different concepts, once a locust plague breaks out, these locusts will be poisonous."

"Not only do chickens and ducks not eat, but birds also don't eat. Even if they are very hungry, they rarely eat."

"But locust larvae are different. For chickens and ducks, they are a gift from God!"

"Therefore, the locust plague can only be prevented. Once it sweeps across the sky, there are very few ways to deal with it."

Everyone looked suspicious, but Gao Yang spoke clearly.

Wang Zhong couldn't help it anymore. He looked at Wu Zhao and said, "Your Majesty, what Gao Yang said is too unbelievable."

"It's not poisonous if you live alone, but it becomes poisonous if you live in groups. This is nonsense!"

Cui Xinghe and others also stepped forward, "Your Majesty, this is indeed unheard of!"

"Be careful."

Seeing this, Gao Yang stepped forward directly and said, "I am willing to guarantee with my head that everything I said is true!"

When Wang Zhong heard this, he suddenly looked at Gao Yang.

So confident?

Not good.

It's 100% bad if it's very bad!

Wu Zhao also took a deep breath and said, "Since ancient times, there has been no way to contain the locust plague."

"When I was young, I often heard that droughts have been severe in various places in Daqian for many years. The grass has dried up, locust plagues are everywhere, and the people are in dire straits!"

"After the locust plague, there was no harvest in the area, and people even exchanged their children for food!"

"I feel deeply heartbroken!"

"This time, I will take a big gamble and use the method of Gao Yang, a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs, to try biological control!"

"I am the master of all the consequences, and I will bear them all!"

Wu Zhao's voice was domineering, and his phoenix eyes looked at Gao Yang.

This time, it was a big gamble for her.

If she loses, she will lose the support of the people and even be criticized by the government and the public!

But if she wins, it will be of great benefit to her!

For a moment, the ministers bowed their heads.

This means that Wu Zhao has made up his mind and Gao Yang's method must be tried.

Seeing this, Cui Xinghe looked at Gao Yang, "But there is still a big difficulty now. The land in Guanzhong is vast. I'm afraid there are still a large number of locusts lurking in the place where Governor Liu reported."

"The chickens and ducks can't find a place, what should we do?"

Gao Yang smiled and said, "It's not difficult. Locusts are resistant to heat and dryness, and they like to lay eggs in the soil. This is why locust plagues easily break out after severe droughts."

"Their favorite place to lay eggs is a hard, dry barren beach. It is best if the soil still has a certain amount of moisture. When the land is dry and some lakes and rivers dry up, it becomes a paradise for locusts to lay eggs!"

"A female locust can lay about 300 eggs in her lifetime, which is why the locust plague sweeps across the country and blocks out the sun."

"So, focus on eliminating these places, offer rewards to the people to report them, and then use an army of chickens and ducks to crush them!"

"The danger in Guanzhong can be solved!"

After finishing the conversation, the entire imperial study became silent.

They looked at Gao Yang with wide eyes.

It really opened their eyes.

Where do locusts like to live?

And we all know how many babies a female locust can give birth to in her lifetime.

No, are you a roundworm in the belly of a locust, or are you having an affair with a female locust?

All the ministers looked at Gao Yang with shocked expressions, including Gao Feng.

Is this still Gao Feng's offspring?

Are you sure it's not a traitor from the Locust Clan?
