Chapter 83

As we chatted, the breakfast time had passed, and the officials left one after another. The topic of how to deal with locusts was naturally kept in the yamen and continued to discuss. Today we must have a conclusion and then implement it immediately.

"Really..." Wang Yong actually wanted to complain, wouldn't it be better if he just let someone eat the locusts? In later generations, this thing is directly a delicacy from many places.

However, rational people know that a locust plague that has already formed cannot be eaten by a few foodies. It takes a long time to cultivate this market, and even a top foodie cannot eat it every day. Many people just taste the taste, and not everyone is Dianwei...

"Shopkeeper, do you know the solution?" Liu Li asked coldly.

"Why do you think so?" Wang Yong was stunned and then asked curiously.

"Everyone was thinking just now, but you looked like you were conscious." Liu Li looked at Wang Yong in confusion.

"I know a little bit about the way to deal with it, but I have no practice and can't count it. Besides, I am a chef, but I don't plan to do that kind of counselor." Wang Yong shrugged and continued to work hard.

The officials did go through, but many diners came one after another. Due to the earlier plans, the prices of corn and sorghum had declined, and many people could buy some. Especially those aristocratic families, they thought they could be sold at a high price, but who knew that they could not make it, so they simply exchanged them for something delicious.

Currently, it is only relying on Wang Yong and Liu Li to entertain guests, and it feels a bit inexpensive. As for Yang Xiu, after completing this hour of work, he has gone to the kitchen to wash dishes. In fact, according to her original statement: "I am a genius. Even if I become a chef, I should not do such a choreographer!"

Wang Yong directly retorted her: "It's a pity that I am the chef! The yamen lacks money and can't hire so many chores. I, a chef, have to do such chores. If you are the chef, what qualifications do you have to complain?"

Yang Xiu was immediately furious, but he went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

"I'm back!" An hour later, Guo Jia came back again and went back to the second floor to change his clothes and prepare to help.

"Just, come down and help cut the mutton!" Wang Yong responded in the kitchen, "How is the discussion?"

"The lord plans to pay for someone to help expel it, although this will cause problems in the finances again. However, compared to finances, food is the key!" Guo Jia came to Wang Yong and whispered.

This is a relatively confidential matter. There are outsiders in the store, so it is naturally difficult to say it publicly.

"When will the preparation start?" Wang Yong asked, even if he had suggestions, it would take several days to conduct the experiment.

"That is, it starts within these three days, and it is very likely the day after tomorrow!" Guo Jia looked around and then whispered.

"If this is the case, it's okay..." Wang Yong nodded, then looked at Liu Li and ordered, "Help check the store. I'll go to the Wanshi House and come back in a quarter of an hour!"

"Okay!" Liu Li was cutting mutton and responded after hearing this.

The best place for mutton has been kept by Wang Yong. He will eat it directly tonight. The leftovers are not very good, so the officials who come to have lunch are cheap. Depending on the situation, I hope to make more money during that afternoon.

Wang Yong left the restaurant and had arrived at Wanshi House for more than ten minutes. He reported Wenming's name, and the latter came out soon after.

"Shopkeeper, what services do Wanshiwu need to provide?" Wenming greeted him with a business etiquette smile.

"There are two things that you need to worry about! Of course, how much is the reward!" Wang Yong first made a little polite approach, and then got to the point, "I need Wanshiwu to provide me with a pound of locusts and send them to the restaurant. In addition, tonight, I hope Wanshiwu will light a bonfire near the fields outside the city, and then see if it can attract locusts to fly over."

"Does the shop owner plan to target the recent locust plague?" Wen Ming immediately heard the key point.

"If handled properly, the harm of the locust plague may be minimized. However, to be really calmed down, we still need friendly support from Wanshiwu." Wang Yong did not hide it.

"Oh, let's talk about it! If the locust plague can be suppressed, even if the Wanshi House suffers a little loss, it's nothing!" As he said, a charming voice came out, but Princess Dong Zhang Chunhua walked out.

"It's very simple. Wanshiwu prepares a large number of chickens, ducks and geese, and then rush to a place where the locust plague is flooded. In this way, you can eat some of the locusts. The key is that chickens, ducks and geese can also gain weight quickly in the process. After the locust plague is over, the profit of selling them is probably higher than the cost of aggregating them." Wang Yong suggested.

"Indeed, only we can mobilize chickens, ducks and geese on a large scale. What you said makes sense. I will report it and mobilize it immediately in the past two days!" Zhang Chunhua thought for a while, and finally made a decision.

As Wang Yong said, this is not only a good opportunity to advertise, but the key is that it is really profitable. You can even sell Cao Cao a good deal, killing three birds with one stone, and there is no reason not to do it.

"But I have to report it to the Lord. I don't think she likes others to make their own decisions!" Wang Yong reminded.

"We naturally know this rule. Should we report the owner's name?" Zhang Chunhua asked.

"No, I just want to be a chef silently." Wang Yong shook his head. It is a good thing to show off. However, all kinds of troubles often come to him after showing off again and again.

"In this way, we still owe the owner a favor. If we ask Wanshiwu to help us in the future, just give us instructions!" Zhang Chunhua was so smart that he promised him directly after hearing this.

Wang Yong smiled. There was no need to say anything at this time. He nodded and left.

"What is he going to do if he wants a pound of locusts?" Zhang Chunhua asked immediately after Wang Yong left. Obviously, she had been lurking aside for a while.

"It's hard to say if it's someone else. If it were the owner, he probably planned to cook..." Wenming was a little undecided.

"Can that thing be eaten?" Zhang Chunhua immediately showed a disgusting expression.

"So, if it were someone else's words, I guess I would have sneered at it!" Wen Ming shook his head, "But if it were the owner of the shop, it might really be able to turn decay into magic. But it's hard to imagine how to cook the locusts."

First of all, it is difficult to accept visually. Whether it is cooked or fried, it is like a locust, and it cannot be accepted physically just by looking at it, let alone make up your mind to eat this thing!

But the house of all things is the house of all things. Someone pays money and they do things, that's all. Zhang Chunhua didn't care how Wang Yong planned to cook, and directly waived the labor costs. It was not worth much money anyway!
Chapter completed!
