After figuring this out, the two county magistrates looked at each other and then turned their attention to Li Mengyue.
Li Mengyue didn't know that because she didn't say anything, the county magistrate had a very good imagination and created a big shot for her.
But she did borrow the power of the man from Banyue Villa.
But the most urgent task at the moment is to catch the locusts flying to Lanlong County. Time is urgent and cannot be wasted here.
So Li Mengyue said straightforwardly, "Master Sun, I promise to take you there. In addition to bringing ducks to Mengchuan County, I will also purchase locusts at a price of 100 yuan per pound."
"Really?"
“Crash!”
When Sun Biao heard what Li Mengyue said, he was so excited that his emotions fluctuated greatly.
His face was flushed red, as if he had been roasted under the scorching sun, and the veins on his forehead were bulging, making people feel like he was about to burst at any time.
His eyes, which were already quite large, were now wide open, and the fanatical light flashing in them was something Li Mengyue couldn't ignore even if she wanted to.
She really didn't expect Lord Sun to have such a big reaction. She had originally planned that wherever the locust swarm appeared, the duck army would also appear.
Even if Lord Sun didn't say it, as long as the locust swarm reached Mengchuan County, she would take the duck army there.
She also has her own considerations regarding the acquisition of locusts.
You have to know that raising tens of thousands of ducks requires a huge amount of food every day.
There were locusts to eat before, but the locust plague will eventually pass.
Therefore, she had to prepare food for the ducks in advance. Once there were no locusts in the fields and no food to eat, something bad would definitely happen.
It is extremely cost-effective to spend a little money to store high-protein food for the duck army in advance.
Realizing that Li Mengyue's thoughts were inconsistent, he immediately started to cry.
[Ahhh! Host, don't tell me that spending money to buy locusts is just to store food for the ducks.]
【Hmm, what's wrong?】
"Host, how did you manage to calmly say 'what happened'? Purchasing locusts is no small sum. We have a lot of money, but it's far from enough to save hundreds of thousands of victims."
Li Mengyue knew that the president was right. Judging from the current situation, there were definitely many refugees from the locust plague in Qingshan Prefecture. In addition, it was unknown how many refugees had survived the floods in the south and fled north.
To rescue these refugees, a lot of money and food are needed.
Even if she got a few boxes of gold, silver and jewelry from Landlord Huang's house, it would be impossible for her to do it.
But she did not place her hopes on the boxes of gold, silver and jewelry in the space. She had her own considerations for the refugees.
"Don't worry, Tuanzi. I have a plan. I have to spend money to stock up on food for the ducks. Don't you want to try what roast duck tastes like?"
[Roast... roast duck? ]
[Yes, tens of thousands of ducks.]
[Yes, yes, yes, am I wrong, or is the host being foresighted? Buy, buy, buy more, fatten up the ducks, and the roast duck they make will definitely be delicious, slurp~]
