The people around him were coming and going, and they all gathered here.
Seeing the cook cooking on the fire, they all wanted to come forward and ask.
The official also told the matter according to His Majesty's request.
Everyone was shocked when they heard what the official on the side said.
Locusts, these things being fried in front of you are actually locusts?
These are the locusts that harm the people inside and outside Chang'an City. How do you eat these things?
Yes, yes, how can you eat this thing?
Everyone was secretly shocked. If it was something else, the big guys might even come forward to take a look.
But seeing everything in front of me, it can be said that the color of a locust has changed.
Everyone watched quietly, no one dared to take a step forward, for fear that something would happen.
If I really eat this thing, what if something goes wrong?
"These things you are worried about will definitely not happen.
Of course this thing is edible.”
With that said, the official started eating in front of everyone.
Seeing that the official actually ate it, everyone was shocked again.
Wow, no way, did the locusts really eat them?
Who says it isn't?
Ouch, ouch, is this really edible?
Everyone looked uncertain and thought about retreating.
Seeing that everyone was unmoved and worried, the official smiled and said to everyone.
"Everyone, you don't think you are the only one who eats this, do you?
I tell you, apart from you, all the ministers in my court have tasted it.
It is because Your Majesty and all of you have tasted it and found that this thing is delicious.
That’s why we arranged for people to start tasting it in Chang’an City.”
ah?
At this time, everyone still didn't believe it and was very confused.
Listening to what he said, this matter is not a lie, right?
It shouldn't look like a lie. Could it be that His Majesty and the big shots in the court have really eaten this thing?
If that's the case, it's not impossible to let ordinary people like them taste it.
The reason why everyone didn't dare to taste it at first was because they were worried that something big would happen if they ate it?
But now that the court and the Holy Emperor have already eaten, what are they, the little people, still worried about?
A few brave ones looked at what was in front of them, thought for a moment, and then ate it directly.
The moment it enters the mouth, it is not as delicious as everyone imagined.
As he spoke, he walked forward and took a few more bites.
A refreshing smell came to my mind.
Not bad, not bad, pretty good.
There were also some people who stood aside quietly. When they saw others finishing their food, they came forward to ask.
How does it taste? Is it delicious? Is it delicious?
Mmmmmmm, this thing is pretty good, pretty good, and very delicious.
While saying this, he did not forget to pick up the chopsticks and continue to eat into his mouth.
By the way, who invented this delicious food?
I always thought this thing was so ugly, but today, it can be said that you have unlocked a new trick.
For a time, many people came forward and began to eat.
By the way, this thing is so delicious. If you don't eat it, you won't be able to find the last hair. It's so fragrant and fragrant.
This is true for many things. As long as you are the first to taste it, you will discover its true deliciousness.
You will be moved by it.
Until all the people have finished a large plate and all the delicious food has been eaten up by all the people.
Everyone, everyone, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, everyone eat slowly, eat slowly.
All things have been taken care of, and His Majesty has arranged for manpower to go outside and collect them continuously.
So everyone, don't be anxious, just eat slowly, eat slowly.
"Your Majesty, good news, good news."
The guards hurried to the palace to report the news.
When he heard that all the people began to eat to their heart's content, and the response was very good, Li Er smiled.
As long as everyone likes it, this is the best.
Someone came to convey my decree and post the method of making locusts and the precautions in a written form.
We are arranging 800 miles to expedite it and tell the people all over the world.
In addition to these, our merchants in Datang can make acquisitions.
At that time, the local government will conduct statistics and report the news to Chang'an City.
Any businessman who performs well will be given a plaque by the court to encourage him.
In addition, after Li Er thought about it again.
Still, the order was given.
For businessmen who perform well in everything, a direct descendant of the family can be arranged to take part in the imperial examination next year.
Li Er felt that other dynasties imposed restrictions on merchants and did not allow them to do this or that.
But he felt that he also had his own pride.
He felt that what other dynasties couldn't do didn't mean that the Tang Dynasty couldn't do it, and it didn't mean that he couldn't do it.
A small imperial examination system just arranged some businessmen's children.
Is it possible that this group of businessmen's kids can really make a big splash here? I can't see it.
After thinking for a moment, I arranged the tasks.
When these two pieces of news spread throughout the world, this group of businessmen completely exploded.
As said before, all major events in the world are for profit.
It would be fine if there is no interest relationship between them.
Even if what you say is ridiculous, no one will believe it.
If there is a mutual interest relationship, whether it is the common people or other people, this will be a strong motivation.
Just like this locust plague, the damage to the people in the world will definitely be the most serious.
However, this matter did not have any impact on this group of wealthy businessmen.
Even if there is a locust plague, for them, no one will think of taking the initiative to help this group of civilians.
After all, there is no interest relationship between the two parties.
All major events in the world are for profit, which is clearly shown in the eyes of businessmen.
"Now it seems that the people have suffered heavy losses this year."
"Yes, yes, the price of food seems to be going up this year."
Some businessmen gathered together in twos and threes, drinking wine, chatting, and talking about business matters this year.
It is said that people like them are freezing to death on the roads where wine and meat are stinky, and there are ups and downs outside, but they have nothing to do with people like them.
“Sir, master, it’s a big deal, it’s a big deal.
I heard news came from Chang'an City that these locusts were delicacies sent down from heaven.
This thing is edible, and now the court is telling all the people to eat locusts."
"Eating locusts, hahahaha?"
Several people laughed.
If you let them eat this, they won't eat it.
The locusts are ugly and disgusting, and I don't know why the court would say such a thing.
Is it possible that there is really no way to provide disaster relief, so this is the only last resort?
Looking at this, judging from the current trend, it should be called panicking.
However, some ordinary people do believe in such methods.
They are just a group of ordinary people, very vulgar.
