Needless to say, a locust plague will bring countless locusts. Even if the whole village works together, they have no idea how many locusts they can catch.

But one thing is certain: they are making a fortune by selling two cents per pound.

However, the locusts that are arriving this time are the vanguard, and the main force is still behind. It is estimated that it will not take long for the locust army to reach Wuning County at the speed of their advancement.

Only then will the real locust plague arrive.

Grandma Wang, whose hands and feet were sore, was very excited when she heard the price of two cents per catty.

He moved nimbly with the catching net, not looking at all frightened and unable to move.

"Grandma Wang, these locusts are just a minor problem right now. Go drink some cold tea and rest for an hour, then we can catch more locusts."

Grandma Wang wanted to say that she was not tired, but she saw Li Mengyue's eyes that did not allow for rejection.

I had to regretfully give up on the vanguard of the locusts and go to have some cold tea and rest.

Li Mengyue looked at the locusts flying around and gave orders to the duck army, letting them eat the locusts as much as they wanted without restraint.

That’s right, the 30,000 ducks raised by Li Mengyue were never full.

They only eat until they are full, and they won’t eat anymore even if a locust flies past them.

The reason why Li Mengyue did this was because there were not many locusts in Xinghua Village. If the ducks were allowed to eat them freely, the villagers would be in trouble.

Now that the locust plague has begun, there is no need to worry about not having enough locusts to eat.

Therefore, after the ducks received the order to eat as much as they wanted, they all ran to the fields.

“Ga ga ga!”

Together with the ducks raised in the village, more than 30,000 ducks suddenly ran towards the locust vanguard, stretched out their devilish mouths, and quickly harvested the lives of the locusts.

In other words, the seemingly large number of locust vanguards disappeared into the stomachs of more than 30,000 ducks at a very fast speed under their mouths.

In this way, even if the villagers go to rest, they don’t have to worry about their homes being destroyed by locusts in a short period of time.

䀴Her purpose of collecting locusts before was to provide the villagers with an extra income so that they would not have to tighten their belts every day due to lack of food and their children would become extremely thin.

Of course, she never does business at a loss. If she wasn't burdened with a mission worth 100 million gratitude points, the lives of the villagers wouldn't matter to her.

But what she didn't expect was that the locust buying business, which she had started with selfish motives, would actually bring her such a big surprise.

Not only did he collect more than three million gratitude points, but he also won the trust of the villagers.

She believed that no matter what she said, the villagers would believe her and obey her unconditionally.

Such a group of lovely people softened her hardened heart. She really didn't want to see them fall into despair under the ruthless locust plague and become refugees who had to leave their homes.

But she wanted to live in Xinghua Village, a beautiful place with green mountains and clear water, and raise her babies.

If all the villagers leave, what's the point of leaving only their family behind?

Based on the above reasons, protecting Xinghua Village is imperative.

The locusts that frightened the villagers will naturally be used by her. No matter how large the number of locust plague is, she will make the best use of it to lay a good foundation for the future development of Xinghua Village.

As for the concern that the villagers have been working hard for a day and a night and will not have the energy to catch the locusts when a large group of them arrives, they are worried.

That didn't exist. She had already asked her mother to prepare Lingquan herbal tea for everyone.

The herbal tea with sufficient spiritual spring water added, let alone a bowl, even drinking half a bowl can help an exhausted old man recover his strength in a short time.

What's more, Lingquan water can also improve physical fitness. It can be said that the physical fitness of the elderly in the village will be greatly improved after drinking Lingquan herbal tea.

Not to mention being ten years younger, being about three years younger than his peers is still no problem.

Grandma Wang, who is over seventy years old, is a good example.

In the past, at her age, Grandma Wang couldn't even last a whole afternoon, let alone a whole day and night, doing such strenuous work as harvesting rice.

But what's going on now? Grandma Wang is still very energetic after harvesting the rice.

If she hadn't stopped her, Grandma Wang would have continued catching locusts without taking a break.
