Time flies, and time passes...

Well, it's really a bit too exaggerated to write this way.

In a blink of an eye, the time and space of the Tang Dynasty had reached March, and the drought predicted by Li Anran was not late or short of being late because of the so-called butterfly wings. In a blink of an eye, it had been raging for nearly half a month.

For places like Xiaoyao Villa, which have water sources close to and prepared for preparations, the rainfall has not fallen for most of the month, almost no problem can be caused. However, in places far away from the water sources and have not prepared at all, it is a major disaster.

The most important thing is that after the rain for nearly half a month, the sunny weather still did not stop at all. The spring climate that was originally supposed to be a cold willow wind, but now it has given people a feeling of hot summer.

The rain has not yet fallen for half a month, and for those below, it is just God's abnormality. But for those insiders, the current drought is far from a real disaster, it is just the beginning.

Chang'an City, the inner palace of the imperial palace...

Looking at the memorials and secret reports handed over from below, Li Shimin's face could no longer be described as ugly. The civil and military ministers who were summoned to the inner hall were also very proud of their voices.

"Auxiliary machine, how is the matter of drilling wells?" He threw the last memorial in his hand back to the mahogany desk in front of him, and Li Shimin picked up the cold tea next to him and drank it all. He asked.

"Master, I have arranged for people to go to various county towns in the pass where the drought is affected. The villages presided over the matter of drilling wells and getting water. The newly trained drilling teams have also been assigned to various places with severe disasters." Changsun Wuji, sitting on the chair, quickly reported.

"Let's go back to Xiaoyao Villa and let... no, please, Zhenren Chunyang think of another way to see if he can get more magic weapons that can dig deep wells. These are not enough now." Li Shimin, who nodded, ordered.

If I had just been skeptical before, after seeing that it had rained for most of the month, Li Shimin had already believed most of the time. What's more, the farm officials sent to the fields also found signs of large-scale insect disasters.

Fortunately, in the idea of ​​believing in the existence of the problem rather than believing in the absence of the problem, I carried out some precautions. Finally, the hidden dangers that have already arisen near Chang'an City were controlled. Unfortunately, this is far from enough.

"I obey the order!" Changsun Wuji, who stood up and bowed, hurriedly took the order.

Changsun Wuji was not worried at all about such a will. Anyway, he had the righteousness of saving people's livelihood. He was not afraid that the True Man of Chunyang who was transcendent and out of the world would not help. Of course, the benefits he should pay were not missing at all.

Although the saying that this is not enough to be affected by the cause and effect, otherwise it will affect its cultivation and even be in the world forever is still skeptical. However, Changsun Wuji had to admit that it is not necessary to make money in this way with the other party's ability.

"Zhijie, go back and go to Xiaoyao Villa with the auxiliary machine to ask if there is any way for the real person to stop the locust plague in advance." Li Shimin, who had been hanging his heart after learning that there were signs of locust plagues in various places in the inner road, ordered again.

As the king of a country, I have to ask a real person to treat natural disasters. Even if this real person is not the kind of person who deceives the world and has many means of matching his identity, it is still difficult to have any positive feelings.

"I obey the order." Fortunately, I made the right choice before, ate a batch of poultry from Xiaoyao Villa, and used free-range methods in the farm to curb Cheng Yaojin, who might have to face losses in his farm, and quickly took the order.

In fact, he is not the only one who has the same glad thoughts, including Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Yuchi Jingde, etc., no matter what the reason is, they have more or less avoided the trouble caused by drought and locust plague.

Although the locust plague has not begun yet, because of the detection, it is easy to find insect eggs hidden in the soil. These have become the best sources of nutrition for the poultry that are stocked in the ground.

Compared with the ministers' gratitude, Li Shimin, as the king of a country, was still a little worried. Even though he had learned from someone that he would be in a good position, it would still be very troublesome if he could overcome this difficulty.

In Li Shimin's opinion, locust plagues are actually nothing if they are in normal times. But they happened exactly the second year after they ascended the throne. In this case, it is easy to be used by those who are interested as a weapon to attack them.

Especially, my superior methods are indeed a bit too much. Once I am caught, I feel so painful that I will make a big fuss, it is difficult not to guarantee that the situation that has just stabilized will become turbulent again. Even if it is not good, there is a high possibility of big problems.

Li Anran, who was patrolling his own villa, naturally would not know what was happening in the inner palace of Chang'an City. Moreover, even if he knew, he would probably not take it seriously. Anyway, the Tang Dynasty was not his own, so he was afraid of being wool.

As for the huge impact and harm that this drought and locust plague can cause, Li Anran actually knew that he didn't do much. Even if he could do it to this point, he was worthy of his title as the True Man of Pure Yang.

At worst, when the locust plague really comes, I will use some means to help Li Shimin stabilize the situation. Even if it is impossible to solve all the harm this time, it is impossible to help everyone, but I am worthy of my conscience.

After this period of time, various measures to prevent drought and locust plagues have been continuously improved, and the rows of large water trucks have continuously sent the water from the river into the canals. The drought in most of the half-month has not had any impact on Xiaoyao Villa.

The water press well that every household has in their yard not only solves the daily water troubles of the farmers, but also avoids the problem that daily water use will cause excessive consumption to the canal. At present, it seems that even if there is a period of drought, there will be no accident.

"Butler Wang, let the people below pay attention to the situation in the entire inner road, especially the signs of locust plague. Once something is discovered, be sure to let me know as soon as possible." Looking at the cheerful ducks and geese flapping in the pond not far away, Li Anran ordered.

"I understand." At this point, Wang Youde, who has been a housekeeper for so many years, knows the importance of this matter and dare not accept it at all. He dare not accept it negligently at all.

"Also, let people post a notice to buy locusts in farmers' markets, commercial streets, and industries in the county town. Fresh locusts cost 2 cents per pound, and the dried ones cost 5 cents per pound, how much does it cost to collect as much as you can." Li Anran, who nodded, ordered again.

"Young Master, this price..." Wang Youde, who was stunned for a moment, said quickly.

"Why? The price is low?" Li Anran, who had not paid attention to the price issue of the Tang Dynasty for a while, asked.

"She is not low, but high." Wang Youde, who shook his head repeatedly, explained.

"High?" Li Anran asked in surprise.

"It's so high, young master, if that happens, this thing will be worthless at all. It's not bad for ten kilograms per penny." Wang Youde, who knew that his young master would not pay attention to these trivial matters, nodded and said.

"Ten kilograms per cent?" Li Anran, who was surprised that the price was too cheap, pondered for a while and shook his head and said, "No, this price is too cheap and it will not have the effect of attracting attention at all. Let's do this, collect it according to the two standards of one penny and two penny per kilogram. As for the same sentence, I will charge as much as I can."

"Yes, young master, I will start to let someone spread the news throughout the inner road of the Guandi." Although I still felt that the price was too high, Wang Youde also heard that the key to this matter was not the price. So he didn't say anything more and agreed very obediently.
