Lucky Girl: Take the Space To Escape From the Famine

  Chapter 83 The county government

   "Looks like you don't have to mow the lawn these days."

  Yin Chengyun needs to mow some horse grass and pig grass on weekdays, but today Luo Dazhi brought a large pile of horse grass to express his gratitude.

   "I heard Cuihua say that Sister Luo Dazhi also wanted us to bring chickens to their house, but Cuihua refused."

   Zhen Shi said while boiling hot water.

   "Well, I also heard that Russell's house is too far away, and we don't plan to go."

  Yin Miao replied, besides, they had also personally bumped into the herbs in Su Wanfeng's house by Luo Suying, how embarrassing was this?

   "If every household in the village raised chickens and ducks, this level of locusts would not be a problem now."

  Yin Bowu brought down a pot of boiling water and poured it directly on the basket covered with a layer of cloth. Below the basket was a large basin with water, and just one pot of water scalded all the locusts to death.

   "Yeah, not really."

  Wei guessed that the chickens and live chickens in the county must be very expensive, and it is impossible for the villagers to buy them.

Yin Miao also took a small pot of scalded locusts into the space while feeding the pigs. Since she found out that the chickens and two pigs in the space also like this kind of food, she will take it in and feed it every day. Some.

   On the second day, when Ma Cuihua came to borrow chickens again, Yin Miao simply lent her four chickens.

   "Aunt Lu's house was also damaged, so Aunt Ma took it and used it."

   Yin Miao said.

   "Well, don't worry, Miao girl, I will watch them not let them eat too much, and I will pay you back when I come back at noon."

   Ma Cuihua knew that Lu Mei was also a frequent visitor to the Yin family, and it was not good for her to keep occupying the family.

  Yin Miao was also happy that her own chickens were fed. The four chickens had not eaten for a day and a night, so they must have eaten a lot.

   The land of Rume's house is not far away, and all of Rume's family have already arrived in the field.

   "This is the child's father, called Li Cheng, and this is the child's cousin, called Gao Xiangping."

  Rume happily introduced.

  Yin Miao greeted them and went to another place together to catch the locusts.

   "This family is full of boring gourds, and none of them like to talk."

   Yin Bowu said to his daughter, even Li Jun, who was three or four years older than Luo Xiaobao.

   "Xiaobao said that since grandma Li Jun died, Li Jun has stopped talking."

  Yin Miao looked in the direction of Li Cheng and the others, and found that Li Jun's cousin seemed to be looking at them, but he quickly lowered his head and grabbed the locusts.

  Yin Miao didn't care, but Lu Mei enthusiastically brought water in a short while, so that the few people would not be too tired.

   "Thank you Aunt Lu, I'm not thirsty."

  Yin Miao thanked her, the villagers all use this kind of wooden tube as a container for water, and there is no particular family sharing one. She cannot accept the use of things that others have used.

   "That's enough, but by the way, the little gentlemen in your family were really handsome yesterday. There are still girls in the village who asked me about it."

  Rume put away the wooden tube and asked with a look of interest.

   "Junqiao is handsome, two slaves, one sick child, only if a girl is willing to marry."

   Yin Miao silently apologized to the three in her heart, but on the surface she looked like a pity.

   "That's right, that Langjun's illness should be much better. I haven't seen him come out before."

  Rume asked again.

   "It's better, Su Langzhong only said to let him move around more, I don't know the rest."

   Yin Miao replied.

   "Hey, that's really a pity. When I turned back, I said to the girls, this person is very handsome, and if he can't go to the fields to farm, he can't do it..."

  Rume shook his head and left.

  Yin Bowu listened for a long while without saying a word. After Lu Mei left, he smiled and said, "I think there were many young ladies from noble families in the capital who took the initiative to find someone to marry King Xuan, but it's not much different from today."

   "I remember that King Xuan seemed to be engaged to someone in Beijing?"

   Yin Miao asked after hearing this, but she didn't remember who the engaged person was.

   "The marriage was given by the emperor, and it was the righteous sister of the empress of the dynasty. It was originally a good marriage, but it was dragged by King Xuan on the grounds that the two did not know each other. Now it is 80% yellow."

   Yin Bowu replied.

"Oh alright."

  Yin Miao pinched a few locusts and threw them into the cloth bag together.

   "Speaking of which, King Xuan still wanted us to get married at the time, but I refused. At that time, I felt that our family was too high, and Dad just wanted you to find a safe one, and it would be best to live a safe and secure life."

   Yin Bowu's words surprised Yin Miao slightly, but she could understand Yin Bowu's painstaking efforts, because the Yin family never intended to use marriage to gain a high profile, and the weak nature of the original body was indeed easy to be manipulated.

   "What kind of engagement is such a small engagement, my daughter plans not to marry for life."

  Yin Miao said, it has always been great to be single.

   "How can there be such a woman? Women will be laughed at if they don't get married."

   Yin Bowu was only joking as his daughter, but he didn't take it to heart.

   Just as the thirty-odd chickens of the Yin family had all come to eat in each family’s fields, the county government suddenly sent someone to Changling Village.

  Wei Lizheng originally thought that he was coming to collect the flat fee for the sacrifice, but he did not expect that Lu Cunxin, who came this time, came to deliver live chickens and ducks.

"The above has issued a death order. This year, we should save the money for sacrifices and replace them with chicken and ducklings at low prices to sell to farmers in various villages to eat the locusts in the fields. Each village has a fixed target. Wei Lizheng can later Collect the money from me, and we can go back to our lives."

  While Lu Cunxin was talking, Wei Lizheng's attention was all on those baskets of chickens and ducks. Those were not chickens and ducks, but chickens and ducks that were about to become adults.

   This is the sun coming out from the west?

   "This...how to sell this?" Wei Lizheng asked, he guessed that 80% of the time it was going to be an exorbitant price for the villagers.

   "This is the price of my grandma's house. If you can't buy it in your village, it will be taken away by other villages. The price of each chicken and duck is the same, 100 cents a piece."

   Lu Cunxin admired the surprised faces of Wei Lizheng and several villagers in the house. This time, the errand finally does not need to harvest the pain masks of the villagers.

   "100 wen each?!"

  Weili almost thought he was dreaming. Zhang Fugui and several people who came to inquire about the news also exclaimed in disbelief.

  How can it be so cheap?

   Now such chickens and ducks are sold for eight or nine hundred yuan in the county!

   "It's the death order from above. You don't understand it. It's because your farmers failed to harvest. The foundation of this country has been shaken. In short, it is to let you concentrate on dealing with this locust plague."

   Lu Cunxin had only read the letter once, and he didn't quite remember the contents.

   "Okay, okay! Master Lu wait a moment, I'll call someone right away!"

  Wei Lizheng had tears in his eyes.

Is    the foundation of the country?

   God is finally about to open his eyes!
