"Father, what do these two tips mean?"

Zhu Lu also came over to read the content on the silk cloth, but he curled his tongue and asked with a confused look on his face.

This guy has a relatively simple mind. Although he knows that what is written here is a way to resist the locust plague, he may not be able to understand Wu Liang's deep meaning until the day when the locust plague comes.

"Let me ask you, if there is a locust plague this year and Chenliu has no grain harvest, and Cao Mengde cannot collect food and salary, what will happen to you, the Diannong captain who supervises Chenliu's "farming system"?"

Zhu Xun glanced at Zhu Lu sideways. He was already unwilling to waste time with this silly son, but thinking about it, he was still his own son after all. Now he was in the big boat of Boss Cao and Wu Liang, and was especially favored by Wu Liang. In the end, he sighed.

He took a breath and asked helplessly.

"This...if this is the case, Cao Mengde will probably convict me of dereliction of duty...?"

Zhu Lu thought about it carefully, and half of his drunkenness was instantly dispelled, and he replied in a panic.

"This is just one of them."

Zhu Xun shook his head again and said thoughtfully, "Secondly, what Cao Mengde wants is food and salary. Can he get his food and salary back by punishing you? If I were Cao Mengde, I would use this as an excuse to kidnap you and go to our home.

If we raise an army to investigate the crime, then in order to protect myself, I will have to use our family's grain harvest to make up for Cao Mengde's losses, so as to calm the matter."

"As a result, not only will I lose my official position, but our family will also suffer huge losses. Father, what should we do?"

After hearing Zhu Xun's words, Zhu Lu became even more panicked. He paced back and forth like an ant on a hot pot, and said with a mournful face, "Father, being an official is too dangerous. It can harm yourself at every turn."

Not to mention, even my clan members will be implicated. Suddenly I don’t want to be an official anymore, so I’m going to ask a talented brother to intercede on my behalf. I’d better teach someone else to be an official.”

As he spoke, Zhu Lu actually turned around and ran towards Wu's house again, his feet no longer weak and his head no longer dizzy, as if he was half awake from the wine.

"You bastard, come back here!"

Fortunately, Zhu Xun had foresight after what had just happened. Zhu Lu had just jogged two steps when Zhu Xun forcibly pulled him back. He shook the silk cloth on his hand and scolded, "Why are you panicking? You are such a talented brother."

Didn’t I just give you some great tips?”

"oh"

Zhu Xun suddenly realized it, and finally took a breath, nodded and smiled, "Yes, yes, Brother Youcai's clever tips are used to deal with the locust plague. Even if the locust plague really comes, I will not be helpless, but..."

At this point, Zhu Xun finally realized the root of the problem, and then scratched the back of his head and asked puzzledly: "But now everything is prosperous, and it doesn't look like there is going to be a locust plague. Why does Brother Youcai have to give it to you?"

Could it be that...he saw my clever plan through my face?"

"..."

This was also a question that Zhu Xun couldn't figure out. Naturally, he didn't know how to explain it. He just said in a deep voice, "If there really is a locust plague, it won't be our Chenliu County's business. I'm afraid it will affect the entire Yanzhou, even Yuzhou and Qingzhou."

, Si Libu, and even Jizhou will be affected. By then, most of the Central Plains will be starving and dying again. What scenes in other places have nothing to do with us, Cao Mengde doesn't care, but if this trick can work wonders in the locust plague

, Cao Mengde will definitely order all the counties in Yanzhou to follow suit to reduce losses. Then you will be the biggest contributor, and our Zhu family will also be prosperous... When Cao Mengde is happy, he can even give you a promotion or a title."

"Then can I be a high-ranking general like my talented brother?"

Zhu Lu suddenly became energetic and said with a look of surprise.

"If Cao Mengde wants to implement the 'farming system' in Yanzhou, he will naturally arrange for larger official positions, which is not necessarily impossible."

Zhu Xun thought for a while and said, "If this is the case, the power of our Zhu family can also spread in Yanzhou, and the benefits can be imagined... Yongkang, these words are just the private words of our father and son. You must not go out.

It’s nonsense, you know?”

"What about the talented brother?"

Zhu Lu asked again.

"If he can really predict the locust plague, these things must be under his control. Even if you don't tell me, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide it from him."

Zhu Xun said noncommittally, but there was already a hint of awe in his heart.

He felt that he must re-examine Wu Liang.

If there is no locust plague in the near future, then this ingenious plan is not superfluous at all. Anyway, in this era, there will be a locust plague every few years, and it will be useful one day. For Zhu Lu, a agricultural official who specializes in the "farming system"

, it is always a good thing to be prepared.

If there really is a locust plague in the near future, there will be no need to mention it.

From then on, in Zhu Xun's eyes, Wu Liang was a land god who knew everything, and he would definitely be treated as a distinguished guest from now on.

after all.

Wu Liang's move not only gave Zhu Lu a hand, but also gave the Zhu family a solid hand. Not only did the Zhu family avoid this disaster, it might also enable the Zhu family to advance instead of retreating in the face of adversity.

Take the opportunity to further expand the family's power and industry...

"Hahaha, what my father said is absolutely true. This talented brother of mine is no ordinary person."

Zhu Lu also laughed with a complacent look on his face, and said while laughing, "What do you think, father, I will say that brother Youcai and I are mutual respecters. He became a general first, and now I may be a general soon."

,You didn’t believe it before, but you should believe it now, right?”

"..."

Zhu Xun rolled his eyes at him and said nothing.

He was thinking in his heart, if this matter is true, how can you and I be nobles of each other? It is obviously the Zhu family's ancestral graves that smoked and surrounded the nobles. Fortunately, the previous things were not done too badly and Wu Liang was offended too much.

, and the apology was timely enough, otherwise I am afraid that not only would I have missed this great opportunity, but it might have been a disaster.

only……

Zhu Xun is a very cautious person, especially in these troubled times, he must act cautiously, so he has secretly begun to think about the purpose of Wu Liang's move.

Everything in the world is for the most benefit.

But if this matter happened and was successfully completed, it did not seem to be of much benefit to Wu Liang. On the contrary, Zhu Lu and the Zhu family took a big advantage.

Of course, the bigger beneficiary is Boss Cao. Stable food and adequate wages at the rear are particularly important for him now.

so.

The more Zhu Xun thought about it, the more he realized that he couldn't see through Wu Liang.

fraud?

Where in the world can there be such a liar?

However, Zhu Xun could not have imagined that Wu Liang's move was actually killing three birds with one stone:

First, he has substantiated his claim that he and Zhu Lu are "mutual nobles" in disguise. Perhaps the Zhu family still may not believe it, but they have to respect his ability. In the future, when he is not in Chenliu, the Zhu family will feel that they are his family members.

With the escort, he naturally has no worries;

Second, by helping Boss Cao to accelerate the expansion of territory, he is actually paving the way for his own archaeological work;

Third, successfully resisting the locust plague can also save the people from suffering. Every time a locust plague comes, it is the people who lose their families and their families. Wu Liang cannot help them, and he will not help them, because some "diseases" can be cured without providing relief.

Yes, but if it could reduce their suffering with a little effort, Wu Liang would be happy to do it.

…

the following few days.

Wu Liang finally returned to a peaceful and comfortable life.

Every day, beauties must be taught "Physical Hygiene Knowledge" courses. Watching the little girls become blushing and shy as they are being taught, there is also a lot of indescribable pleasure in this.

In addition, Wu Liang continues to purify shochu using the brewing tools he made.

In addition to the part reserved for drinking, Wu Liang purified the other part several times to increase the alcohol content of the shochu as much as possible.

What he wants is medical alcohol.

Although it is almost impossible to purify medical alcohol with a purity of more than 95% with these tools, the closer it is to this purity, the better the disinfection and sterilization effect will be. If someone in the Hu army has received a trauma and uses such alcohol to clean the wound,

The probability of bacterial infection can naturally be reduced a lot.

Wu Liang didn't know medical skills and couldn't save lives and heal the wounded. He could only protect his own people as much as possible in this way.

in addition.

Bai Jingjing has been a bit unusual in the past few days. She seems to have taken medicine, which is called "fierce as a tiger".

So much so that Wu Liang is a little afraid of her now.

Imagine a pretty girl running into your room every night. After coming in, she takes off your clothes without saying a word, and then proceeds to make you surrender with such ferocious force. That’s not the end of the story. You have to be by your side when the whole thing is done.

He stopped teasing her, then started teasing her, and then started another operation...

This cycle repeats at least three times every night, as if it wants to drain you completely. What kind of experience is it like to leave not a drop left?

This is what Wu Liang has been enduring in recent days.

As a result, he has obviously experienced frequent urination recently and the feeling of being unable to urinate completely. Once, he even urinated a little blood, not to mention other troubles...

But Bai Jingjing still enjoyed it and came on time every night, never giving him a chance to refuse.

Even when Wu Liang clearly refused the night before, Bai Jingjing actually raped him!

How dare she use force on him?!

This is something Wu Liang has never dreamed of before!

So last night, Wu Liang had to carry the quilt to Dian Wei's room in advance, and forcibly commandeered half of Dian Wei's bed for the whole night. Today, when he walked, his legs were not as weak as before, and he could finally pee.
