In the study, the atmosphere was very depressed.

Li's father and Li's mother have now believed the prophecy made by their son, but what if this kind of thing is known in advance, at most, it can hoard a batch of food in advance to ensure that her family will not starve to death at that time.

But there are still thousands of people out there starving to death because of the lack of food production. Although Li's father and Li's mother were not good people in the ninth generation, they knew that many people would starve to death in the future, but they could do nothing, and both of them felt extremely sad.

Li Zexuan was worried before, if his father knew about the locust plague, would he think about hoarding food in advance, then drive up the price of food and send a fortune from natural disasters. But now seeing the sad face on his father's face, Li Zexuan knew that he thought too much, and secretly thought about his villainy heart.

But knowing that Dad is not that kind of philistine, Li Zexuan was still a little relieved. He walked up to Dad and said firmly:

"Father, if we don't try, how can we know that we can't fight for our lives? Master said before his death that people in the world think that people can't fight against heaven, but they don't know that it's just an excuse made by the weak for their own failures, as long as we If you try your best and do your best, then people can conquer the sky!"

When Li Jingmo heard his son's words, his blood boiled for a while. He looked up at his son and asked:

"Xuan'er, have you come up with a good solution?"

Li Zexuan sat back on the Hu stool, took a sip of tea, nodded, and replied:

"Since the boy came back from Longhu Mountain, he has been thinking about the solution. In those days, when he thought that a year later, all parts of the Tang Dynasty would be starved for thousands of miles, and the boy would be worried that he would not be able to eat or sleep... "

"Cough! Don't talk nonsense, talk about the main point!" Li Jingmo quickly interrupted.

In my heart, you still have the face to say that you can't eat, can't sleep, eat in different ways every day, and even get a gnawed chicken out, and one day you don't sleep until the sun rises three poles before getting up!

Mrs. Li was also amused by her son's shameless words and wanted to laugh a little. She found that her son's skin was getting thicker and thicker, but it was fine. it is good.

Seeing that his parents were not as frustrated as before, Li Zexuan knew that his goal had been achieved, so he stopped playing tricks and continued seriously:

"Baby accidentally came up with a method today that can eliminate locusts to a large extent, and at least ensure that the food of our village will not be harmed!"

Li Zexuan came up with a plan after seeing a grasshopper brought by Tie Dan being snatched by a rooster today.

In this era of no chemical pesticides, Li Zexuan can only think of biological control methods to deal with locusts. The overwhelming locusts are obviously not enough to be caught manually, and only animals that can prey on locusts can be raised in large numbers.

Don't underestimate the power of biological control. Li Zexuan saw a technical post in his previous life. According to statistics, a black-spotted frog can prey on more than 135 locust flies (larvae of locusts) per day, and the frog can prey on 120 per day. There are many locust hoppers, a toad can prey on more than 160 locust hoppers a day, and an adult bird can eat 167 adult locusts a day.

Just imagine that if tens of millions of white birds can be introduced at this moment, then after the outbreak of locust plague next year, these tens of millions of birds alone can eat up all the locusts in Datang overnight.

However, because birds and frogs are not easy to raise on a large scale, Li Zexuan thought about building a large-scale chicken farm and mobilizing all the power of Hanjiazhuang to raise as many as he can.

Li Jingmo has been traveling for so many years, but he has never heard of any way to deal with the locust plague. Hearing this, he asked curiously, "Xuan'er, what do you think of?"

Li Zexuan did not answer, but instead asked: "Dad, if there is a way to control locusts, it can ensure that the harvest of Quanzhuangzi in Hanjiazhuang will not be lost when the locust plague comes, but it requires our family to pay a lot of money, Dad, would you like to? ?"

Li Jingmo glared at him when he heard the words, and said angrily: "What kind of person do you think your father is, saving one's life is better than building a seventh-level pagoda. If there is a way, how can you die and I will not save you?"

Mrs. Li also agreed: "Xuan'er, if you have any solution, just say it directly. Your mother and your father will fully support you. If the money is gone, your father can still earn more, but he can only watch so many people starve to death. , I'm afraid my mother will never feel at ease!"

Li Zexuan was also moved by his mother's sincere kindness, nodded and continued:

"Father, the solution is very simple. Our family is responsible for providing chickens to the farmers in the Han family, and all the farmers help us raise chickens. Depending on the number of chickens each family raises, they will reduce their rent by 10% to 30%.

When the locusts come next year and the chickens grow up, we can let the farmers drive the chickens into the ground and let these chickens eat all the locusts.

This will not only protect the crops, but also the chickens will grow faster. When the locust plague is over, we can sell these chickens or supply them directly to Zuixianlou. In this way, we will not lose money, but also help A farmer. "

While Li Jingmo listened to his son's strategies, Li made a calculation in his heart. When his son finished speaking, he found that his son was right and he had taken into account all aspects of the problem. He couldn't help but feel relieved, but he still had a question in his heart, so he asked:

"Xuan'er, your idea is quite thoughtful, it may not be impossible, but just relying on these chickens, can you really eat all the locusts in Hanjiazhuang?"

Li Zexuan smiled confidently:

"Dad, don't underestimate the ability of chickens, the boy once read a book that said that an adult

The chickens can eat more than 300 locusts a day at most. At that time, the child estimates that twenty chickens will be able to ensure that there are no locusts in an acre of land. As long as the plan goes well, we can fight for our lives against the sky!

Moreover, chickens fed with locusts grow fast and the meat is extremely delicious. After the locust plague is over, if we supply these chickens to Zuixianlou, we can completely raise the price. "

Although Li Jingmo didn't know which book would record such a boring thing, he nodded thoughtfully when he saw his son's promise.

Mrs. Li asked again at this time, "Xuan'er, if the chickens are driven into the field, what will they do if they eat the crops?"

Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Mother, there are so many locusts in the field, the chickens must have no appetite to eat the crops!"

Mrs. Li suddenly realized.

Seeing that the two elders were almost persuaded by him, Li Zexuan asked his father:

"Father, how much money can our family spare at this stage?"

Li Jingmo thought about it and said, "If you give three days to be your father, you will probably be able to spare 300,000 yuan for your father!"

Li Zexuan was shocked when he heard the words. He knew that his father was very rich, but he didn't expect that he would be able to free up 300,000 yuan of working capital in just three days.

At present, the entire annual fiscal revenue of Datang is only about 20 million guan.

Moreover, these 300,000 yuan are only part of the current assets, plus those immovable assets, it is difficult for Li Zexuan to imagine how rich his family is.

Li Jingmo couldn't help feeling a little smug when he saw his son's saliva in shock, and finally regained a bit of his status at home.

Li Zexuan was stunned for a while before he said:

"Dad, then let's take out 150,000 yuan, and you can ask someone to buy food. You can store as much food as you can. With more food, we will have confidence. The other 150,000 yuan will be used by the boy to buy chickens for Hanjiazhuang. Miao, build the chicken coop and keep the rest for emergencies, what do you think, Dad?"

With the solution, and more importantly, with the support of his father's strong economic strength, Li Zexuan is fighting high at the moment, secretly glad that he was reborn in a rich second generation, otherwise even if he had a way to control the locusts, he would only be able to fight a little. It was just a little trouble, but now it is completely different. If the plan goes well, Li Zexuan can completely save the people in a large area.

Li Jingmo stroked his beard and said, "Okay, just follow Xuan'er's plan. But today's events must not be spread out, otherwise our family will be in disaster."

Li Zexuan knew that it was a big deal, nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry, the baby knows the seriousness. In a few days, Tiedan's injury will heal, and the baby will go to Hanjiazhuang with them by the way, and find Han Lizheng to negotiate this matter. The sooner the plan is Do it better!"

Li Jingmo nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Li smiled meaningfully at the moment and said: "Xuan'er, you are not too young. It is time to think about lifelong events. Mother, that girl Han is not bad."

Li Jingmo's face was full of question marks, not knowing what happened.

However, Li Zexuan blushed, embarrassed, and hurriedly fled.

Mrs. Li shook her head and laughed: "This child..."
