Non-professional bodyguards of the fast travel system

Chapter 295 Protecting the Prince (8)

Qin Shao was shocked, and immediately asked: "What can you do?"

"You also go out and spread some rumors, it's not news. Just say, locusts can aphrodisiac."

"Bullshit!"

Qin Shao didn't believe it at all, he just thought that Qiu Ye was still playing with him at this time, but Qiu Ye became interested and went up to chat with him for a while, Qin Shao's face turned green and white, and finally nodded hesitantly.

Ruyi got Qin Shao's order and began to tell Qiu Ye all the outside things.

On the second day, it was spread outside the palace that locusts have [-] functions for strengthening the body, ranging from beautifying and nourishing color, to nourishing kidney and strengthening yang, and they are almost omnipotent.

Not only that, but some businessmen who have traveled all over the country came out to confirm this news, saying that the locusts are very nourishing, and they are very delicious after frying and frying. In the south, anyone who has never eaten locusts is not called a glutton!

Although some people are skeptical, they heard that the king next door had no heirs for several years, and even the sisters and children in the building were unwilling to entertain them. Unexpectedly, after eating locusts, they would guard the three daughters at night without falling down with golden guns. The concubine's affairs have all been suppressed.

It didn't take long before some wealthy households who secretly wanted to taste whether the locusts were as delicious and strong as people said they were.

Since someone wants to buy it, there must be a place to buy it. Isn't there a plague of locusts in the south?With a ready-made place to go, a large number of businessmen poured into the south, and began to hire local people to catch locusts and sell them to Qindu.

The Great Qin Dynasty has been passed down for a long time, the country is rich and the people are strong, and most of the south is rich. I heard that eating locusts has become popular in the capital of Qin. Naturally, some people follow suit and want to taste what the insect emperor is like and how effective it is. Start catching locusts.

The people affected by the disaster also laughed from ear to ear, and the money they earned from selling locusts was more than their own income from farming.

It took only two or three months before and after this incident, and the locust plague in the south has reached the point where there are no insects to catch. The farmers in the south can't catch the insects, and they can plant another batch of grain in late summer.

The locust plague, which has been discolored over the years, has been resolved in this way.

Qin Shao couldn't believe it when he heard the report of his subordinates.

He looked at the deep-fried locusts carefully prepared by the imperial chef, and unconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth.

The idea came from the Crown Princess, and he carried it out, and the emperor also helped, because during a palace banquet, the emperor actually took the lead in eating the small locust fruit, which is the locust with the head and wings wrapped in the face , and then deep-fried twice, plus carefully prepared dipping sauce.

The emperor ate it all, would the ministers dare not eat it?

Although some ministers felt that the insects were difficult to enter and could not be used on the table, but the emperor liked the table, who would dare not use chopsticks?

Besides, after cooking like this, let alone the aroma, even the children next door could cry.

After eating, there is no peculiar smell, but it is very crispy, and the taste is really good.

The ministers also opened their mouths to eat.

What Qin Shao didn't expect the most was not these ministers, but the concubines in this big harem.

Qin Shao asked the princess in disbelief: "What's going on? The concubines want to eat such a disgusting thing every single time?"

Akino looked at his cute look, and said with a smile: "Do you know what a Zihe car is?"

Qin Shao nodded with a wrinkled face. He knew about that thing, but he would never enter it.

Qiu Ye said: "As long as it is something that can beautify the skin, let alone these few bugs, wouldn't even Ziheche and the others taste delicious?"

Some women will do anything for beauty!Especially for those women who are older and feel that their youth is not there, Qin Shao never imagined that they would pay any price in order to maintain their youthful beauty and perfect figure.

But Akino didn't expect that the emperor would save face like this.

If the emperor hadn't "forced" the ministers to taste it, this plan would not have been so easy to implement.

Although Qin Shao is sensitive, he is a man after all and cannot understand women's pursuit of beauty. He asked strangely, "Then why don't you eat?"

Akino looked at the locust feast on the table with disgust, and said helplessly, "I don't like eating bugs."

If you eat it, you will not eat it, absolutely not!
"If you don't eat it, how do you know it's delicious? Let others eat it?"

Qiu Ye said casually: "I know, I know. Why do you ask so many questions? This method is easy to use, and you don't have to worry about locust plagues in the future."

Originally, Akino was not completely sure of his success. After all, this was an ancient imperial society, and news spread very slowly.

But the benefits are also obvious. The emperor's influence is too great. Even the emperor would eat this food. Isn't that a good thing?
Those wealthy households, if they can't afford imperial food, can they still afford locusts?Just go to the ground and grab some.

Of course, they may really not be able to afford it in the future, because this thing will become more and more precious over time.

At the beginning, when the merchants went to collect locusts, they could collect a large basket for one copper coin, but later they could only collect ten locusts for one copper coin. This is a chain reaction.

Qin Shao also felt that this method was useful, so he didn't eat it, but no one had any problems after eating it for several months. It seemed that it was indeed edible, so he asked: "Don't you worry that this method is not good? use?"

Akino said: "I still have an alternative plan. This method won't work, and there are other ways to solve it, and it will also be very profitable."

It works about the same speed, and the result is about the same, so why not choose the easier method?

Qin Shao asked curiously, "What way?"

He was really curious, and even believed the rumors outside that he, the crown princess, was possessed by a ghost.

After all, he didn't find out that she was pretending to be stupid in the past three years, so she was obviously really stupid.

But he didn't like these gossips, he just thought it was because she was too good at acting, or there was some big conspiracy, but in the past few months, the princess hadn't done anything except to be angry with him.

The whimsical thoughts in her head are not like what a daughter of a petty official can have.

What is a plague of locusts?That is a natural disaster that no one has been able to solve since ancient times. Not only has his princess solved it, but is there another way?Is it really a monster?
Qiu Ye didn't know what Qin Shao was thinking, and this kind of knowledge didn't exceed the common sense of this mission world. She said directly: "Raise ducks, raise a large number of ducks in places with locusts, and ducks eat locusts, and they grow fast and well. Breeding ducks can be sold at a high price, and then buy ducklings to eat locusts, and the cycle repeats.”

Qin Shao bowed his head and made some calculations, then pondered: "Although locusts are expensive now, it is not a long-term solution after all. It is better to raise ducks, which is also good for people's livelihood."

Qin Shao raised his head and looked at Qiu Ye with his deep eyes, staring at her until the hairs on his face didn't leave his sight, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
