Look at the mountains and rivers I have drawn

Chapter 497 The Great Drought
Under Zhang Sizi's frenzied struggle, Ye Yan still asked people to take him away. As for the crime, it was just a deception.

Seeing Ye Yan's behavior, the old team leader sighed helplessly. This kid was not like this before, but now he is getting closer and closer to detours for money.

Ye Yan cleaned up the things left by this guy, and put the camels in the store for the time being. As for the meat that everyone bought, Ye Yan also bought it back at the original price. After all, such things cannot be eaten. It's even more troublesome.

After dealing with all this, Ye Yan returned to the prison. Seeing Zhang Sizi roaring inside, Ye Yan asked someone to bring him out. Although the old captain's good temper could indulge his bad habits, Ye Yan couldn't see it.

"It's really strange that you are still able to repay your kindness? Didn't the old captain treat you badly when he set up a camel team?" Ye Yan looked helpless, why don't good people make good money?
Hearing Ye Yan's words, Zhang Sizi laughed arrogantly: "What ability do you have to accuse me? I just sold some things with your help. Before you told us that you would open a store, how could we quit? ?”

He immediately pushed the blame to Ye Yan, as if everything was his fault?

Ye Yan was very speechless, so he got Da Zhu to teach him, and he went to the shop.

As soon as Ye Yan arrived at the store, he saw it was very lively. Except for Zhang Sizi, the scattered team members were busy transporting goods, helping the store to buy goods from time to time, and slowly stabilized. Ye Yan's previous Worry gradually calmed down.

Ye Yan was wandering outside with the cool breeze blowing at night. Seeing the current environment, he had made great progress. There were already creaking sounds on the trees by the roadside, and many insects became active. .

Someone in the distance seemed to be looking for something, Ye Yan only found out that the straw cage used by that person was full of cicadas after he approached.

"Ye Wang, I'm going to catch some bugs and feed them to the chickens." Ye Yan was a little shocked by his cheerful look.

Knowing that this kind of food has very high nutritional value, more than an egg, they actually use it to feed chickens?It was a bit funny, Ye Yan asked tentatively: "Why don't you eat it, it's delicious after being deep-fried."

After finishing speaking, the man was stunned, can this thing be eaten?Insects are disgusting, Bala is quite scary, if he is not afraid of losing the chickens, he would not come out to catch them like this.

"Hehe, we haven't tried Ye Wang yet." Confused, he prepared to move on, and Xia Tian came.Many things are actually edible, but everyone is not so clear about this.

Although he felt a little helpless, Ye Yan couldn't force him to do anything. It was still early, so he caught a few and brought them back. When he arrived at the kitchen of the palace, he saw the chef catching grasshoppers.

I tasted this before, and it tasted really good. Seeing Ye Yan's arrival, he greeted Ye Yan very warmly: "Come and eat some, my grasshopper can be eaten after a little treatment."

Before there was a pest plague, eating grasshoppers was considered a burden, but now it is quite delicious to eat something happily.

Seeing that he hadn't started making it yet, it was just right, and fried the cicada monkey along with the oil.

Who would have thought that when Ye Yan handed this to him just now, the chef's eyes were similar to those of the chicken feeder, Ye Yan smiled awkwardly, and made it for him by the chef himself. Monkey and grasshopper, Ye Yan took this out.

I saw the chef took a tentative bite, and finally tasted a taste that he liked very much, and there was a piece of lean meat in the cicada monkey, which made him want to stop.

"I'll bring them back tomorrow to catch some more. Let's promote this to everyone. I think some people use it to feed chickens. It's really a waste." After Ye Yan finished speaking, he poured wine with the chef and ate the dishes. Had a drink.

The two discussed what could be eaten in the field, and wanted to make full use of it.

The next day, Ye Yan let the common people eat the cicada monkey, and he cleverly publicized it among the crowd. Everyone was not interested in this pest at all, and they even felt resistance to Ye Yan's idea.

"This king of leaves cares about everything. It's a bit unconscionable to eat pests, right? He just wants us to save some food so that we don't need to use the food from the treasury!" An aunt said disdainfully, gnawing on the inside of her hand. skewers.

The people next to him also echoed. This was the first time he had heard this kind of statement. Who would have thought that Ye Yan would bring many people out to look for this thing before it was completely dark.

Everyone is very speechless about this situation. This year's grain grows very well and can be harvested after two rains without accidents. In a bumper harvest year, they still eat bugs, which is really too frugal.

After a while, Ye Yan found more than [-] people, and everyone had a lot in their baskets. Early the next morning, he set up a stall outside the shop, and put the precious lumps on it for others to taste.

But where is anyone willing to pay?Not only did no one respond, Ye Yan was also complained about by many people.

Dazhu came here with his own character, and there were two people behind him, the princess and Ma Yuyan. They both heard that Ye Yan was doing something unacceptable. Now it seems that it is really not worrying.

As soon as he came over, he saw the black thing in the plate. The greasy appearance made people feel unflattered, and the princess was going to give him a compliment, but she was also a little worried.

Ma Yuyan is not picky about food, she has never seen anything in Majiazhai, this small scene is not worth mentioning to her.

Carefully picked up a cicada monkey, stuffed it into her mouth, just after chewing it twice, she felt that it tasted pretty good, after eating, she ate another one.

"This food tastes good, and I think it's much more delicious than the grasshoppers before." Ma Swift shared excitedly, and hurriedly put a cicada monkey into the princess's mouth.

She was also amazed by the taste. The princess, who was used to eating meat, had never tasted this kind of delicacy, so she hurriedly ate it again.

Seeing that the two girls like it so much, everyone felt a little bit of curiosity in their hearts. A few bold people came to try it for themselves, and things gradually became popular.

Just after everyone accepted this, a very troublesome thing happened. When it was supposed to rain, there was no sign of rain at all. It feels very hot, and the people who grow the crops are anxious. What should I do in this situation?
"Ye Wang, please come up with an idea for everyone, we really have no other way." A group of people confided at the gate of the city, and Ye Yan was very helpless when he heard everyone's suffering. Artificial watering, but there is not much water left in the river.
