A total of one hundred copper coins, the total amount of copper coins in Dingzhou Village may not be so much, everyone is a little dizzy.

"Tsk tsk, there are so many copper coins, the young man of the Li family is very capable!"

"Spending so much money to buy ducks, what is Li's young man doing?"

"I'm afraid the Li family bought all the ducks from all over the world?"

Zhao Xiaoniang, who sold pigs to Li Wangyou, was also selected by the old village to help herd ducks. Several women and aunts in the village surrounded Zhao's wife with envy in their eyes.

"Ms. Zhao, your young lady has also been chosen to help Li's young man release ducks? What a blessing."

"Isn't it? Before Zhao Xiaoniang sold pigs to the Li family and got a lot of copper coins, and now she can help the Li family raise ducks. It must be that Zhao Dalang is protecting you mother and daughter underground."

"It's time for Zhao Xiaoniang to talk about her husband's family. Miss Zhao, you have to check carefully, and you can't just betroth Zhao Xiaoniang."

"If you want me to say, just marry in the village, and you can take care of your mother." This is a family with a son who is not married, and he has the idea of ​​marrying the Zhao family.

Mrs. Zhao just smiled happily, watching her daughter busy chasing ducks with satisfaction and pride on her face.

More and more oxen and horse-drawn carts came from the merchants, and the river beach suddenly became extremely lively.

Thousands of ducks were croaking and scurrying around from time to time, which made the duck girls sweat profusely and drove the disobedient ducks around with bamboo poles.

From time to time, because the ducks were disobedient, the girls were embarrassed, and the crowd watching the excitement in the village burst into laughter from time to time, which made the little girls blush.

After working for a long time, I finally gathered all the ducks into the duck shed and settled the payment.

There are a total of 86 adult ducks and [-] ducklings, with a total of [-] copper coins.

Both goods and silver are cleared, and both sides are happy.

After seeing off the vendors, Li Wangyou began to explain the duck-releasing to the duck-herding women.

A total of [-] duck sheds have been built, and each duck female is responsible for managing two duck sheds.

These ducks are first raised in the [-]-acre rice field of the family. After they are familiar with the duck shed, they are driven by [-] duck-herding girls to the field to eat by themselves.

The whole village has more than 2000 mu of land, which is enough to feed the ducks. Not to mention that although the locust plague has not yet reached a large scale, the fields are full of dancing locusts, so there is no need to worry about not having enough food for the ducks.

Li Wangyou had a good idea, but after a few days, the girls who released the ducks drove the ducks out and hunted the ducks by themselves in the fields of the village, but they immediately caused trouble...

The Li family's army of ducks stocked the fields in the village, and before noon, Li Wangyou's house was surrounded by a group of farmers led by the old village.

Outside the old house of the Li family, hundreds of households gathered around, many of them were cursing and agitated.

Seeing this situation, the old housekeeper Li Heng was taken aback, and hurriedly invited the old villager and several leading households into the hall.

Li Wangyou was playing chess with the fat man Qiu Kun in the study at this time, the fat man was also reluctant to leave now, he had been at Li's house for more than ten days, and he didn't seem to have any plans to return to Chang'an.

From Fatty's point of view, Li's family had good food and a comfortable place to live, no worse than those in Chang'an City. The only thing that made him a little unaccustomed was that he couldn't go to Pingkangfang to drink flower wine.

But in front of food, these are tolerable.

The two were playing chess, but they heard the noise outside.

Li Heng ran in hastily: "Mr., our house is surrounded by farmers, saying that our ducks have caused trouble. I invite the villager to sit in the main room in the front yard. Go and have a look."

Duck to blame?After a little thought, Li Wangyou understood what was going on.

It seems that the matter of ducks eating locusts has been noticed by the old villager Zheng and the farmers. This is to ask for guilt.

Regarding this, Li Wangyou was not in a hurry, and followed the old housekeeper slowly to the main room in the front yard.

"What's the matter today, Lao Cunzheng?"

"Xiao Lang, let me ask you, do you buy so many ducks to eat locusts? Many of the locusts in the field have been eaten by your ducks. How amazing is that?" The old village's front was sinking like water. Asked when they met.

If a modern person hears this, I'm afraid it will be inexplicable.Isn't it a good thing that the ducks eat the locusts in the field?

Wrong, in the eyes of these simple people in the Tang Dynasty, since the locusts appeared, it was a punishment sent by the God of Locusts to the world, how could they be hunted and killed?

If not, how could those bigwigs in the court and the bigwigs of Confucianism say such ridiculous words that the only way to exterminate locusts is to cultivate virtue.

"My ducks ate the locusts in the field? Hey, you're welcome, you're welcome, this is what should be done." Li Wangyou replied with a hippie smile.

His words stunned the old villager and the farmers, are we here to thank you?Did you not understand?

"Xiao Lang, this is absolutely impossible! The locusts are descended from the God of Locusts, how can they prey on them?"

"That's right, your ducks ate locusts. If God punishes you even more, who will be responsible?"

"Xiao Lang, drive away your ducks quickly, and don't let the ducks prey on the locusts again."

"I think it's just nonsense. I asked why the Li family suddenly bought so many ducks. You are going to use locusts to feed the ducks for you! You are so bold, Xiao Lang, are you not afraid of being blamed by the heavens?"

"Xiao Lang, don't mess around, don't cause trouble for our Dingzhou Village!"

The old village and the farmers were all talking and scolding the Li family's ducks and Li Wangyou's misbehavior.

If it weren't for Li Wangyou's reputation in Dingzhou Village now, I'm afraid his words would not be so polite.

The beautiful boss also heard the news at this time, and immediately rushed to the main room in the front yard.

Hearing that the old villager and the farmers not only refused to accept the Li family's favor, but also blamed Li Wangyou by such words, she was so angry that her pretty face turned pale, and she was cold and frosty.

It's really a dog who bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't know a good heart!

Is their Li family full?After spending all his wealth to buy so many ducks, Li Wangyou went to Chang'an to try his best to raise so much food. Isn't it all for the more than 100 villagers in Dingzhou Village?

The locusts that destroyed the crops did not blame them, but kowtowed and burned incense. Li Wangyou wanted to save them, but was humiliated by them.

Sure enough, poor people must have something to hate!

100 Duck God and Locust God

Li Wangyou was not in a hurry to defend himself, he quietly listened to everyone's words, and when they finally calmed down, he said slowly, "What does it have to do with me when ducks eat locusts? It's not that I'm eating locusts. Ci, isn’t this duck eating locusts ordered by the duck god?”

What he said made everyone stunned. What did he mean?

What the hell is the duck god?

"Ducks are not ordered by me to eat locusts, right? They prey on their own. Since the locusts will be eaten by ducks, it means that the god of ducks is more powerful than the god of locusts. What are you afraid of?"

"What, what duck god? How can there be such a god?" Lao Cunzheng murmured.

"Hey, old village, how do you know that there is no duck god? It is said that there are gods up to three feet, and everything has a god. Since there is a locust god, there must be a duck god."

Li Wangyou is changing the concept secretly. Since you said that the locusts were released by the locust god, why do you say that there is no duck god on the duck?
