Seeing that nothing happened, Meng Yue turned her gaze to the king of kings among tiger cubs.
The King of Kings has been basically staying with Tuanzi these days, and Yitonghu is already very familiar with him.
Seeing that the King of Kings was fine, Mengyue didn't think that Tong was playing a trick on her.
【Tuanzi, what happened? 】
【Host, didn’t you see it? 】
【What? 】
【Silver, I'm afraid we don't have enough silver. 】
After hearing this, Mengyue finally understood why Tong was shouting. Of course, the money was not enough, as they had to spend a lot of money recently, such as helping disaster victims and purchasing locusts.
But money is not so easy to earn. If she had not gotten a few boxes of jewelry and collected locusts from Landlord Huang's house before, she would not have been so generous to offer a price of five cents per pound.
I made some money in the locust business before, but it was all small-scale. I only earned a little over a hundred taels, which was not of much use.
Besides, there were five other counties on the scene. She collected locusts from her own county, so she would not be partial and refuse to collect locusts from other counties.
It looks like these boxes of jewelry will be used up in a very short time.
However, we still have to find a way to raise some money, otherwise we won’t be able to support the initial work of helping the victims.
However, the most important thing now is to purchase locusts. This will not only inspire people to a certain extent and prevent them from falling into despair, but also prepare for her next arrangements.
The ducks and villagers worked together to stop the first wave of locusts without any major problems.
Even if there are locusts again in the future, everyone has experience, and even without the participation of ducks, it is estimated that too many locusts will not be released.
After all, in the eyes of the villagers, locusts = money.
Of course, one thing is certain: after the first wave of locusts passes, there will definitely be a gap of several days before the next wave arrives.
This not only gives everyone a chance to catch their breath, but also allows them to continue making more tools for catching locusts.
When the next wave of locusts arrives, we will be able to deal with it more calmly.
But she couldn't stay in Wuning County. She had to lead the duck army to other counties, continue the expedition, and slowly eliminate the locust army.
Once the main force is eliminated, the remaining small groups of locusts will not be able to cause any trouble and can be easily dealt with by the local people.
Although her command of chickens and ducks to kill locusts has become known to more and more people, she is easily regarded as an outsider and her work is somewhat thankless.
But she had no better way to kill the locusts.
She once asked Tong if he could get some medicine to spray on the crops. When the locusts smell it, they will fly away and avoid the sprayed area.
Of course there wasn't any. The leader said that they had broken the rules by coming to this world, and it was impossible for them to get anything that didn't belong to this world.
Tong, who could sense Mengyue's emotional changes and hear her inner thoughts, suddenly thought of something.
[Hey, host, don't you know how to make medicine? Just make some medicine to repel locusts. Why would we need to raise ducks and collect locusts?]
"No, not to mention the medicine I made. If locusts smell it, they will be poisoned, becoming a source of poison. Anyone who picks them up will also be poisoned. Furthermore, such a large swarm of locusts requires a large amount of medicine, and the medicinal materials alone are too expensive. I also asked at Tongxin Hall, and they really can't get that much medicinal materials."
【Oh, well, that's a pity. 】
"It's not a big deal. In fact, I'm quite thankful that the locust plague happened during the time we were collecting gratitude points. This way, there will be many victims, which gives us more room to play, even if it's a bit unfair to think so."
[Host, even if we didn't come, Qingshan Prefecture would still be plagued by locusts. With us here, the people of Qingshan Prefecture have more hope of survival.]
【Um. 】
