Chapter 175 Can locusts make money? Li Shimin came down to Danbi, patted Changsun Wuji on the shoulder happily and said with a smile: "You are not qualified yet. Only if I personally take the lead can the people let go of their worries!"
Changsun Wuji knew that the emperor was right. As long as the emperor takes the lead in eating locusts, the people will put aside all their will think: The emperor is the emperor, the son of son has already eaten my servant’s messenger, so what are we afraid of?
With the emperor standing in front of him, God would not blame him.
"This" everyone looked at each other in confusion. The emperor had eaten it, so why wouldn't he, as a minister, eat it?
He immediately glared at Ji Song angrily, this guy is not a son of a man, he wants everyone to eat , we can't let this kid run away.
"Since everyone has eaten, shouldn't Hao Jiehou also take the lead in eating?" Hearing Changsun Wuji's voice, Ji Song had enough time to take care of himself without any panic.
He smiled and said, "Of course, my nephew suggested it. How could I not eat it? But"
"But what?"
Okay, even if I want you, as long as this kid dares to shirk, I will make this kid suffer no matter what.
"But the boy eats a lot. I hope you uncles can sponsor me more, what do you think?" Ji Song said with a smile.
Everyone was stunned, looked at each other, and then looked at Ji Song, whose smile never faded. They thought, is this kid stupid? There are still people rushing to eat that food? "Jisong, you kid, don't act nonsense!" Li Shimin was worried about what to tell the queen and the concubines in the harem. This kid is still teasing people here? So he scolded.
"It's true. I buy locusts in large quantities. All I have to do is drown them and dry them in the sun. I'll pay you as much as you want for a pound or a penny. I want to buy them even if I lose all my money. Your Majesty, please help me!" Ji Song said anxiously.
This is a good opportunity to make a fortune. It is much faster if the court comes to acquire it than by yourself.
Tianji shrimp steak, Shanghai drunken grasshopper, spicy grasshopper. Thinking of so many delicacies, Ji Song's mouth watered.
Seeing Ji Song's appearance, everyone and the emperor were no longer angry, and Li Shimin looked at Ji Song with relief.
When they think about it, Ji Song is preparing to fund and encourage everyone to hunt and kill locusts in order to eliminate them!When people hear that locusts can be exchanged for money, they don't care whether you are a locust god or not. What matters is that you can eat enough. This can greatly increase the people's enthusiasm for killing locusts.
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others looked at each other and stepped forward and said to Li Shimin: "I am also willing to purchase locusts, please give me your permission!"
Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng also said that they were willing to purchase locusts, which made Li Shimin both helpless and moved. With such ministers, why worry about the Tang Dynasty not being prosperous!
"no!"
Just when Li Shimin and everyone wanted to stage a plot in which a king and his ministers get along well, Ji Song wanted to jump out and cause trouble like a big villain.
Li Shimin and everyone looked at Ji Song angrily at Ji Song, who had no eyesight, and he quickly retreated in fright.
"Say, why not? You can accept it, but we can't?" This is the emperor's anger! Ji Song smiled awkwardly and said, "Hey, isn't it that my family is a little tight recently? I just want to make some money to support the family, so don't compete with my nephew!"
Du Ruhui grabbed Wei Zheng who wanted to ask, shook his head at him, and said to Ji Song: "This is your fault. How can you do a profitable business without us? You are not afraid to support it?"
"You also know this thing can make money?" Ji Song said in surprise.
"What? Can you really make money?" Lao Du said in surprise.
Li Shimin and everyone stared at Ji Song. If he dared to lie, he would not be able to leave the hall today. "Snapped!"
Ji Song slapped himself in the mouth bitterly to make you talk more. Now it's better. The business that was originally a separate business was blown up by someone.
Looking at everyone's looks, Ji Song knew that it was impossible not to say anything, so he could only tell the whole story dejectedly!
Everything in the world has its disadvantages, and it must also have its benefits.
In addition to being a disaster, locusts are also a good medicine in traditional Chinese medicine and play a very important themselves are protein, which is no different from meat.
Locusts are pungent and sweet when used as medicine. They are mild in nature and can enter the lung, liver and spleen meridians. Its main functions are to relieve coughs, relieve asthma, calm convulsions and eliminate accumulated accumulation. It can usually be used for coughs, convulsions, tetanus and other diseases. The therapeutic effect is particularly obvious in the treatment of common diseases such as chilblains.
It has an excellent therapeutic effect especially on infantile convulsions. During normal treatment, you can calcine an appropriate amount of locusts, then grind them into fine powder, add an appropriate amount of sugar, mix thoroughly, and take it directly with warm water. Most children You can see obvious therapeutic effects after just one dose.
"Everyone knows about tetanus, right?" Ji Song asked.
"Of course I know. After every war, many soldiers will die of tetanus. How could I not know? It was the same in Pingyang back then. Are you saying that these locusts can also treat tetanus?"
Li Shimin felt that he was more excited today than usual. If it were true, then the locusts were not a disaster, but a reward from heaven to the people of Tang Dynasty.
"Yes, tetanus is an infectious malignant disease that will cause high fever or convulsions after it occurs. It can also be treated with locusts. It is best to dry the locusts and grind them into fine powder. Take three qian each time. Take it three times a day, and drink it with strong liquor, and you can quickly reduce the symptoms of tetanus.
Moreover, it is also effective in treating night blindness and the locusts are dried and ground into powder, humans can also eat them. Although the taste is not good, the ingredients are the same as those of meat. "
"Is what you said true?"
Now everyone couldn't sit still, thinking that just a moment ago they were worried about the overwhelming locusts, and now in the blink of an eye, money is falling from the sky? No, how can such a good thing make Ji Song, a boy who is so beautiful, willing to participate in anything?
"Your Majesty, I am willing to spend all my wealth to buy locusts, and I will return your favor to your Majesty!"
"The minister is also"
"The minister is also willing."
"Okay, it's all about money. The imperial court has no money for disaster relief. The bulk of the money must belong to the imperial court." Ignoring the strange looks in everyone's eyes, Li Shimin turned and left after speaking.
"Well, my nephew will leave if he has something else to do. Alas, the things on the farm have made me exhausted. I still have things to do when I get back, so I won't accompany you uncles."
How thief is Ji Song?After seeing the situation, you still don’t know what’s going on?He turned around and ran away at a speed that even Dahuang could only do so! Du Ruhui looked at Ji Song's back and suddenly smiled: "Ha! It seems that he is still old, and he accidentally fell into this kid's way."
"What's the explanation for this?" Wei Zheng wondered.
Lao Du glanced at him and said: "Do you really think this kid wants to eat alone? You don't think about how rich his family is, so he can be interested in this business? Why don't you just tell it through my mouth?"
"Hey!" Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and left! Thank you all for your continued support!
