Chapter 166 Ding Mu
The next day at Yin, it was still pitch black outside.
Ning Ze set out early and ordered people to arrange the scene in advance. At the same time, he ordered thousands of military chefs to cook locusts by different means according to their requirements.
Roasted locusts, braised locusts, fried locusts, fried locusts... as long as Ning Ze could think of them, they all served on the table.
The scene was full of fragrance. Although the military chef in charge of cooking felt that the locusts were still scary and it was difficult to accept eating insects, the scent of them made them saliva flow.
The soldiers in the city were mobilized, and the open-air banquet venue was quickly arranged, and the widest and most prosperous place in the center of Huajun was selected.
Before dawn, officials have arrived one after another.
At the same time, countless people from Huajun gathered to grab a good place.
Ning Ze asked someone to divide the banquet venue into two layers, one in the middle, protected by soldiers and covered by canopy, as a place for officials to enjoy the banquet. The other layer was outside, and a large number of wooden tables and boards were visited in the open air, with locusts made from different cooking methods placed on it, which could be tried by interested people.
At the same time, a wide platform was built inside, and tables and chairs were specially set up on the second floor to serve as a gathering place for top officials.
The high platform faces the banquet scene and can speak to civil and military officials and the people.
At present, only Ning Ze and Song Gao who was following him.
Taking advantage of the light of the torch, Song Gao glanced at the scene where people were already rushing down the stage, turned to Ning Ze and said, "It seems that the people are very looking forward to the flying shrimp banquet!"
Ning Ze laughed and said, "The people just like to join in the fun. I guess many people don't know what the flying shrimp banquet is. As long as the flying shrimp banquet is successfully held today, and then according to this model, the officials of various counties, counties and even villages in Jinzhou will handle it accordingly, and with the information publicity of our intelligence officers, the people in the country will soon be able to take the initiative to eliminate locusts."
"The military advisor is indeed resourceful!" Song Gao turned his head and looked at the locust on the table that was fried crispy and golden, fragrant, and hesitated for a long time, "This taste is quite fragrant. Do you want to give it a try?"
"Okay!" Ning Ze said, "Try it."
"Hey!" Song Gao pretended to be brave enough to walk to the table, and carefully picked up a locust with chopsticks. Following Ning Ze, he naturally hopes to be trusted. Now Ning Ze wants to promote the way to eat locusts and encourage the people to eat insects to eliminate locusts. As the people around him, although they have great psychological barriers, they have to try their best.
I thought so, but I just raised the locust in front of me, opened my mouth a few times, and the courage I had just plucked up disappeared again.
Even if it had been fried and smelled very fragrant, it was still a locust. If you wanted to eat insects, Song Gao really didn't know how to put his mouth down and stared at the locust on the chopsticks, as if its eyes were constantly glaring at it.
He sent the locust to his mouth, moved it away with resistance, and went back and forth many times, extremely entangled.
Ning Ze looked at it funny and patted Song Gao on the shoulder: "Don't force yourself! If you can eat, eat, forget it if you can't."
"Yes, you can eat! It just needs to be brewed," Song Gao replied embarrassedly, "Your servant will eat now..."
As I talked, I was still extremely entangled.
Ning Ze smiled and shook his head, saying to him: "I'll go there to see the progress, come on!"
"Okay! I can do it!" Song Gao nodded vigorously and decided to fight the locusts on the chopsticks.
However, after Ning Ze left, he still didn't have the courage to speak and was completely at a loss.
At this moment, a noise suddenly sounded in my ears, and there seemed to be someone quarreling in the circle of people around me.
Song Gao felt relieved and left the platform with a locust, running all the way to check the situation: "What's going on? What's going on!"
A soldier reported: "The flying shrimp banquet has not yet begun, and some of the people insist on eating it now, so there is a dispute."
"Ah?" Song Gao's expression was strange, "Who is actually in a hurry to eat locusts? Take me to see!"
"Here!"
So the soldiers took Song Gao through the crowd and came to the noisy place.
When he came over, a big man with a scar on his forehead turned around unhappy and muttered: "I said I would not allow him to eat when I was holding a banquet, what's the point?!"
"The flying shrimp banquet has not started yet, so I asked you to wait!" said a soldier in charge of public security next to me.
"Can't you taste it?"
"It's said that the flying shrimp banquet has not started yet..."
"Hmph!" The man looked unhappy and turned around and was about to leave.
"What's going on?" Song Gao hurried forward and quietly placed the chopsticks holding the locusts on the table.
The soldier knew Song Gao and hurried over to report: "The flying shrimp banquet has not yet begun, so this person is in a hurry to eat it. He will be unhappy when he asks him to stay for a while."
"I'm hungry. I heard that you can eat for free when you hold a banquet here, so come here!" The man turned around and said dissatisfiedly, "Who would have to wait here when you come here. When will you have to wait? Why not eat!"
Seeing that the man was tall and powerful, Song Gao thought that he was definitely not an ordinary person, so he stepped forward and held his hand: "Don't worry, the hero! I am a man around Ning Military Commander, and the military commander is inspecting it. It's better to wait a moment and ask the military commander to see if he can prepare for the hero... Oh! By the way, this is what I want to try. It's better for the hero to eat first, and it's better for the hero to eat or not. If it doesn't suit the appetite, there are locusts here, and the hero can't eat it. If it suits the appetite, make plans."
Song Gao picked up the locust on the table with chopsticks and handed it to the man.
I thought the man would hesitate, but he didn't expect that the other party would take the locust and stuff it into his mouth without blinking.
Not only Song Gao, but also the soldiers and the people around him were staring at the big man. He stuffed the locusts into his mouth and kept chewing them, and then swallowed them, showing curious eyes.
"How is it?" Song Gao didn't expect that the man was so fierce that a locust would be eaten in a few seconds.
The big man smashed his mouth: "The little flying insect actually tastes so good. The flying shrimp banquet is indeed worthy of its name. It's just not enough to eat!"
Song Gao was very impressed and said to the big man: "Wait for a moment, I will ask the military advisor!"
"Hurry up," the big man patted his stomach, "I'm so hungry!"
Song Gao quickly found Ning Ze and informed the man of the situation.
Ning Ze was happy when he heard this. He was thinking about how to convince civil and military officials and the people of Hua County to eat locusts. Those who are willing to take the initiative to try will certainly not refuse. Instead, they should cooperate with each other. He immediately said to Song Gao: "Don't care whether the banquet will begin or not. If someone wants to eat, let him eat it!"
"Here!" After Ning Ze's reply, Song Gao immediately ran over and ordered the soldiers to give way, and said to the big man, "The military advisor said, don't wait for the banquet to start, everyone can eat as long as they want!"
The man looked a little better. He walked up to the front without hesitation, picked up a plate of braised locusts and stuffed them into his mouth, and he was too lazy to use chopsticks. This guy ate quite deliciously, which made the people around him stunned.
Several people smelled the fragrance and looked at the eating habits of the man, and wanted to give it a try. However, when they got closer, they all retreated again when they saw the locusts.
It is not easy to break through this psychological defense.
The big man didn't care about it, and quickly finished a basin, then turned to the fried locust next to him.
Song Gao's eyes were almost glaring out, as if the man was eating not locusts, but delicious food.
He was the only one eating the audience, and he was eating voraciously, looking particularly exaggerated, as if a starving ghost was reincarnated.
Seeing that the second pot of locusts was eaten, Song Gao couldn't help asking: "The hero has eaten two pots in a row, should he continue to eat?"
"Can you only eat two basins?" the big man turned his head and asked, frowned slightly.
"That's not the case, the military advisor said it would eat whatever he wanted." Song Gao swallowed.
The big man nodded, lowered his head and continued to eat hard.
This situation was so scary that Song Gao quickly reported to Ning Ze.
Ning Ze came to hear the news and was a little surprised when he saw this great man.
【Military General】Ding Mu, male, 22 years old
【Strength】On the opposition 【Loyalty】—
【Physical Strength】100【Weapon】89
【Intellect】40 【Politics】32
【Command】61 【Benevolence】70
【Series】Heavy Armored Infantry s
【Special Stunts】Persist in lv8, fight in lv6
Song Gao is really a lucky general. If he hadn't stopped this person, he would have left at that time.
This guy has 89 martial arts points, and has S-level hidden troops, which is super awesome!
Level 8 persistence, level 6 fighting, and the ability to build a heavy armored infantry team must be won!
So he immediately stepped forward and said to the man who was eating wildly: "I am the military advisor under Princess Yuanxi, Ning Ze, the general of the Dachengdian Army! You are the affirmation of yours to be able to like the flying shrimp banquet. It is better to follow me to the high platform inside, and there are more locust dishes to let you taste!"
"Take it seriously?" Ding Mu asked, with a large number of locusts stuffed in his mouth, his voice a little vague.
"My military advisor is just a word!" Song Gao said.
"Since that's the case, I'll bother you!" Ding Mu reached out and grabbed another handful of locusts, followed Ning Ze in while eating.
After arriving at the high platform, Ning Ze asked him to sit at the table that was closest to the outside: "The hero let go and eat, you don't have to be polite!"
"Thank you!" Ding Mu indeed let go of his stomach and continued to swallow it voraciously.
Song Gao's lips twitched as he saw it, and he secretly said to Ning Ze: "Military advisor, this person is so edible!"
"It's better to eat!" Ning Ze turned his head and looked at the gradually brightening environment. There were people on the high platform below and whispered, "Let him do business here, the effect will definitely be good!"
“What is advertising?”
"Tell me what locusts can eat!"
"Oh~ So that's it." Song Gao suddenly realized.
"You go and accompany him and use the chat to inquire. If you can convince this person to join our army, you will be a great achievement!" Ning Ze whispered, "Even if you can't convince him, you can't let him go easily and notify me in time!"
"Don't worry, the military advisor, the subordinates will be able to complete the task!" Song Gao swore confidently and patted his chest to assure him.
When Ning Ze returned to work hard, Song Gao immediately sat next to Ding Mu and started chatting with him without saying a word.
However, Ding Mu only cared about eating, and his answers were all "Yeah, ah, eh", and he ignored them at all.
Song Gao was hungry watching from the side, so he started a fight with the locusts again.
Ning Ze's trick was quite effective. He put Ding Mu on the platform to display it so that the officials and soldiers below, as well as the onlookers in the front row could see it. Seeing that Ding Mu was eating so delicious, some people could not resist the temptation and mustered up the courage to try it. There were ones, two, and there were naturally three. The people around him gradually tried it boldly, and they all showed surprise after eating it. They quickly recommended it to the people who were walking around him.
Chapter completed!
