Chapter 225: 216 The Famine Is Coming

   "Father, what's the situation with this locust plague? How long will it take to end?" Qin Er's sister-in-law looked at Qin Dazhuang worriedly and asked.

   There is no way not to worry, she has a big belly.

   In case of a sudden attack, and mother Wen won't be able to come, what should I do if I want to have a child?

  The rest also looked at Qin Dazhuang.

   After all, no one else has ever seen a plague of locusts.

   Only Qin Dazhuang is old, has a lot of experience, and knows a lot.

   Qin Dazhuang sighed.

   "A plague of locusts is an infestation of locusts, swarms of chaos."

   "Generally, the plague of locusts will only break out after a severe drought."

   "With the locust plague, the food in the fields will almost be eaten up. Even the mountains, forests, and other green things like vegetables will be eaten clean."

   "Wherever the locusts pass, they leave little green."

   "Also, if there is a locust plague in the first year. In the coming year, or even the next two or three years, it may continue."

   "Even if there is no trouble, there will be more locusts in the field next year."

   "The locusts eat the crops. Once there are too many, the food production in the fields will inevitably decrease."

   When everyone heard this, their hearts sank.

   Food production is reduced, what does that mean?

   As long as the local grain cannot be collected, the grain merchants will bring grain from other places, and the grain price will not come down.

   They suffered a drought in Lingquan Town, and there was not enough food to eat, and some people even panicked.

  The plague of locusts, now, I am afraid that it will become a famine.

   At the same time, everyone felt fortunate in their hearts.

   Fortunately, they only bought a thousand catties of grain from the Song family, otherwise the price of grain will continue to rise, and their family will be sad.

   "Dad, how long will this plague of locusts last?" Qin Er's sister-in-law almost cried when she heard Qin Dazhuang's words.

   Qin Erhu saw this, he quickly pulled his mother-in-law to sit down, reached out and patted his mother-in-law's back as a sign of comfort.

  Qin Dazhuang also saw the worry of the second daughter-in-law and said, "Don't worry, it won't be a few days."

   "When things are finished eating, they fly away and continue to eat at the next place."

   "It is estimated that the locusts will leave in five or six days at most." After thinking about it, Qin Dazhuang said.

   Qin Er's sister-in-law felt more at ease now.

   touched his stomach, looked at his man again, and cheered himself up.

   Qin Dazhuang saw this and looked at his two sons.

   "The old people went to Liu's house, and in the next few days, don't go out."

   "The second one is now heavier. Take good care of him these few days."

   "Homework, the eldest and the second, the two of you will discuss it together."

   Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu looked at each other.

   "Hey!" should be down.

   On the other side, the Liu family.

  Because of the locust plague, it was just before dinner time, and the Liu family also coped well.

   However, in their house, there was no cloth to cover the windows and door frames, and many locusts broke into the house.

   Fortunately, the impact is not too big, people are not idle, it is not difficult to catch the locusts that intrude.

   After catching it for a while, Liu Xiaomei even got addicted to it.

   "There are so many locusts, sprinkle a little salt after frying, the taste must be good!" Liu Xiaomei said while catching the locusts and stuffing them into a cloth bag.

  Li Da Niu just watched from the side because of her big belly.

   Aunt Liu was also catching locusts, and at the same time replied to Liu Xiaomei's words.

   "Frying doesn't require oil! Now pork and lard fat are not easy to buy, and there is no oil for you at home!"

   "Oh, mother! But this thing isn't fried, it's not delicious!"

   "What a pity to waste food for nothing!"

   Hearing this, Aunt Liu's expression improved.

   "Catch first and then!" replied.

  It is not so important whether it is delicious or not. Make it and eat it!

  Unfortunately, Liu Xiaomei doesn't know what her mother is thinking at the moment.

  Otherwise, he would definitely not be so active in catching locusts.

   Compared to the good mentality of the three women.

  The three men of the Liu family had solemn expressions.

   "Fortunately, we moved. Otherwise, if we were still in Xiashui Village and caught up with this locust plague, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to deal with." Liu Daniu said.

  Xiashui Village's house is dilapidated and small. If the house is not moved, the poultry will still be raised.

  When the locusts came, it was too late to take care of people. How could they take care of poultry?

  Liu Erniu agrees.

   "So many locusts, I don't know where they came from, when will they stop?" He continued.

  Uncle Liu frowned.

   "It doesn't matter where they came from, as soon as these locusts come, we in Lingquan Town will be sad for the days to come." He sighed heavily.

   "What's wrong?" Liu Erniu asked.

   did not realize the seriousness of the problem.

  Uncle Liu then explained the horror of the locust plague.

   Now the Liu brothers are not calm.

   "Doesn't that mean the price of food has to go up, and it will be high for a long time?"

   "There's not much food left in our family!" Liu Daniu said anxiously.

  Uncle Liu patted his thigh.

   "Isn't it?!" said angrily.

   Immediately, he quickly looked at the brothers.

   "When the locusts outside have subsided, you two, take all the money at home and go directly to the grain store."

   "It doesn't matter what the price is, you can buy as much as you can. Buy the food back!" Uncle Liu said quickly.

   Knowing that there would be a locust plague, he should not have listened to his mother-in-law, and he has not bought food at home for a while.

   Well now, this locust plague is in trouble. The grain of the grain store is afraid of being looted. Not sure where the price will go.

   Liu Daniu and Liu Erniu looked at each other and hurriedly responded.

  Things are serious, famine is really going to start...

   After another half an hour, the dark cloud of locusts finally dissipated.

  Most of the locusts flew away, and only a few locusts remained, and they continued to eat plants on the ground.

   Of course, this minority is relative. The opposite is the flying locust army.

   So, when people walked out of the room, there were still a lot of locusts outside.

   Song family.

  The people of Yong'an Lane came out of the Song Family's main house, saw the clear sky and felt the hot sunshine, they all felt like they were in a different world.

   I don’t know if it’s because everyone was scared by the locusts before, everyone felt that the weather was not so hot anymore.

   Not only the people in the main room came out, but the Song family also came out.

   When people saw Qin Xiaoyao and others, they immediately came forward to thank them.

   Qin Xiaoyao and others, please be polite.

   Taking the opportunity, Qin Xiaoyao also announced that the family will continue to sell bean sprouts and water.

   And during the next locust plague, the time and amount of selling water and bean sprouts will not be limited.

  As long as the locusts don’t come, everyone can come to buy water and bean sprouts when it’s convenient.

   In addition, the price of bean sprouts has also been reduced to two pounds and three cents. Qin Xiaoyao told that everyone can take this opportunity to buy some vegetables and stock up.

  Everyone thanked the Qin family for their righteousness, and then only a few people stayed and continued to buy water, and most of them left.
