"A good man is ambitious and has great ambitions. He serves the country and the people. He is in power and is loved by the people. Isn't that beautiful?”
"A good husband's heart is at home. He has a beautiful wife in his heart, loves his wife and son, and becomes rich. Wouldn't it be happy to be admired by his wife and children?”
"You!"
Li Er almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Was he so arrogant just because he was talented?
He was so neat at scolding people!
No!
It would be a great waste for such a talented person to not be an official. It would be a blasphemy to his talent and ability, an irresponsibility to the future of the Great Tang!
Li Er thought that he had to change Qin Feng's mind and quickly chased after him.
In the field, Qin Feng really went down to dig with a hoe. Li Er also followed and couldn't help but say,
"You see how hard it is for the farmers, sweating all over, but the officials are very relaxed.”
"Are the sweet potatoes delicious?"
Qin Feng casually asked. Li Er was slightly stunned and said in confusion,
"Sweet potatoes are naturally delicious, but this…"
"If you don't become farmers, can you eat sweet potatoes?”
Qin Feng turned around and mocked. He was just short of saying,'Who are you looking down on, little brother?'
"This…"
Li Er was instantly embarrassed. He thought for a moment and quickly changed the topic. He continued to bewitch her,
"Servants receive their salaries on time every month. My family is a high-ranking official, a first-grade official. My monthly salary is as high as ten thousand taels of silver!”
This guy threw out a huge gimmick and directly used the salary of a first-grade official to tempt them.
"Yesterday, I sold a few million taels of sweet potatoes."”
Li Er became even more embarrassed and couldn't help but say angrily,"
"Do you understand that the monthly salary of an official is fixed? Farmers had to harvest. If a natural disaster came, wouldn't they work for nothing for a year?”
"Does an official have five insurances and one fund?"
Qin Feng turned around and looked at Li Er. The latter was stunned and said in confusion,
"What, what are the five insurances and one gold?"
"Five insurances and one fund means that you won't be an official in the future. The imperial court will also give you a monthly pension.”
"Nonsense! How can there be such a good thing!"
Li Er was furious.
"Then how can you say that being an official is better than being a farmer? I can still grow some sweet potatoes to eat when I'm old, right?”
Qin Feng smiled as he looked at Li Er. The latter's face twitched as he saw Qin Feng calling out to the villagers to dig happily. His heart ached.
"Master!"
At this moment, Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin had returned. Li Er shook his head and sighed as he walked over, whispering,"
"How did it go?"
"Your Majesty, everything has been done. Those cattle have also been returned to the yamen. We will investigate this case thoroughly!”
Fang Xuanling spoke respectfully. Li Er nodded and said,
"How dare you steal cattle. Such a bad behavior must be severely punished.”
"Yes! Your Majesty is right!"
Cheng Yaojin shouted,
"Your Majesty, why don't you let me, Old Cheng, investigate? Once I catch the murderer, I will hang him up and beat him up.”
This idiot spoke very loudly and righteously. Obviously, he wanted to get credit.
After all, this matter had caused a commotion. When the case was closed, Li Er would definitely reward him well.
"Yes."
Li Er nodded, but he thought that Cheng Yaojin was too reckless, so he said,
"Xuan Ling has worked hard for a while. Work with Zhi Jie to settle this matter. There will be a result in three days!”
The two of them quickly agreed. Fang Xuanling looked at Qin Feng who was in the field and said,
"Your Majesty, what is Young Master Qin doing?”
"Sigh…"
Upon returning to this topic, Li Er could not help but sigh heavily again. He said,
"This child has no ambition and is unwilling to be an official. In so many years, this is the first time I've heard of someone unwilling to be an official.”
Perhaps this was what a genius was like. His thoughts were far different from ordinary people.
"This…Young Master Qin, he knows of His Majesty's identity?”
"I don't know. Before I make him willingly submit, I can't expose my identity. This child is still looking down on me.”
Li Er was unhappy in his heart. He couldn't even convince Qin Feng now. So what if he revealed his identity?
If Qin Feng was forced to become an official, wouldn't he become a joke when he came back to dig sweet potatoes and not attend court?
The two of them suddenly realized that it was true.
"Just now, you said that you wanted a solution to the locust plague. This is the solution.”
Qin Feng came up this time. He patted the soil off his body and handed over a bag.
The locust plague had brought disaster to the world, so Qin Feng naturally would not waste time. It was a good thing to let Li Er quickly implement the plan.
"This thing is the solution to the locust plague?!”
Li Er hurriedly took the sack from Qin Feng's hand and opened it. He was so scared that he let out a ghost cry and threw it away.
"What, what is this?"
Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin quickly picked it up. They opened the sack and took a look. Their faces immediately turned sour.
"Young…Young Master Qin, this…"
"Isn't it embarrassing? You can't even see a man worm?”
Qin Feng looked at Sanhuo with disdain and picked it up.
"These are young locusts. During a drought, the locusts will hide in the soil and can live for five to ten years.”
"When the crops grow, the locusts will hatch and destroy the crops. The solution is simple.”
"In the future, we won't be invaded by locusts anymore. Right now, a certain village is still digging locusts every day, so there won't be any locusts.”
According to historical records, this method of cutting firewood from under the cauldron first appeared in the Great Song, and it was called the stubborn method.
With the outdated equipment in this era, Qin Feng thought that the simplest thing to do was to do this. Day after day, he would eventually be able to destroy it.
"Young Master Qin is truly a great talent. Good idea, but this is a huge project. How to motivate the commoners to dig every day is a problem.”
Li Er was a little worried when he thought of this. Qin Feng raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled,
"It's noon now. Why don't you have lunch in Reliance Village?”
"Very good, very good. We are indeed hungry.”
The three of them were instantly overjoyed. There were so many delicacies in Reliance Village that they couldn't wait to eat here.
Therefore, Qin Feng brought them to the kitchen in the village and asked the three goods to wait. He said that he would go and cook some dishes.
This enthusiasm made the three of them extremely happy. They all said that there was no need to be polite, but their faces were full of smiles.
After a while, the dishes were brought out. There were green vegetables and a plate of golden meat dishes. The fragrance was so strong that it even overshadowed the sweet potatoes and corn.
"This item looks exceptionally alluring!”
When Li Er saw the meat dish, he was a little greedy. Fang Xuanling even wiped his saliva.
Cheng Yaojin couldn't wait any longer. He picked up the spoon and scooped it into the bowl. He ate the rice in big mouthfuls, his eyes bulging out.
"It's delicious, Master. This is actually several times more fragrant than sweet potatoes and corn!”
"Really?"
Li Er was interested and quickly tried a mouthful without saying anything. He was immediately addicted and took a few spoons. Qin Feng's faint laughter sounded beside him.
"Does it smell good? Is it delicious?"
"Delicious, delicious. This is simply too fragrant. I've never eaten such a delicious dish before!!”
Li Er ate happily and almost brought the entire basin over. He couldn't help but look at Qin Feng and say,
"Young Master Qin, how should I address this delicacy?”
Hearing this, the corners of Qin Feng's mouth curled up as he lightly smiled and spat out four words.
"Stir-fried locusts."
"What?"
Li Er was startled. He turned around and opened his eyes wide. He said in a trembling voice,
"You said that this item is called…"
"Stir-fried locusts. Yes, these are the locusts you saw just now. Delicious, right?”
Qin Feng grinned. The expressions of the three of them immediately changed wildly. They hurriedly covered their mouths and rushed out of the door. Soon after, extremely miserable vomiting sounds could be heard.
