Chapter 260 Teleportation Function
Chapter 260 Teleportation Function
Li Mengyue didn't expect that the system could restore the teleportation function after falling asleep once.
It seems that in the future, no matter where I want to go, I can just set the departure and destination and arrive there instantly.
Not to mention, it is absolutely useful for escaping when you encounter danger.
[Host, let's not end up having to run away! ]
[How can I tell what will happen in the future?]
Li Mengyue is still very confident in her abilities, but things are unpredictable and no one can tell what will happen in the future.
However, there is one thing she is very clear about, that is, with the teleportation function, no matter what she does in the future, she will be more confident.
[Let’s go to Lanlong County first! 】
【okay! 】
Li Mengyue spent 60,000 taels of silver and traveled to the county governments of six counties to inform the local county magistrates of the locust plague.
However, no one believed her. They all thought she was spreading rumors to confuse the public, especially in Mengchuan County, where she was almost caught.
[Host, what should I do if they don't believe me? 】
[It's okay. We have already done what we should do. If they don't let the people harvest the crops, they will have to bear the consequences themselves.]
【Uh-huh. 】
That being said, Li Mengyue certainly couldn't go back just like that.
In every county, she found many beggar children and gave them some money and food.
The children were all eager to do what she asked.
So, except for Wuning County, the same scene occurred in the other six counties under Qingshan Prefecture.
The children ran to various villages, shouting as they ran.
"A locust plague is coming, harvest the grain quickly."
Regardless of whether the villagers would believe it or not, every village would shout it ten times and then leave immediately after shouting.
Anyway, the Fairy Sister said that if the hundred or so of them called out to all the villages in the county, each of them would get one or two taels of silver.
Thinking back to the time when I worked from morning till night, I was lucky enough to be able to get a few coins.
Now, if they just go to a few villages, they can get one or two taels of silver, so they shout even more excitedly.
In this way, Li Mengyue spent only a few hundred taels of silver, and in less than an hour, the news of the locust plague spread throughout the entire Qingshan Prefecture.
The prefect also learned about this and became furious.
"Investigate, investigate for me, who is spreading rumors in my territory."
"Yes, my lord."
When Prefect Song and others retreated to investigate, they paced around the room several times.
Thinking of the memorial that Yang Zhijin passed over him, his eyes deepened.
Hearing that Yang Zhijin was close to the third prince, he deliberately sent Yang Zhijin to Wuning County.
I just hope Yang Zhijin will rot there, but I don’t want him to achieve any political achievements.
There was a flood in the south, and countless refugees headed north, counting the days since the disaster.
If the refugees are lucky enough to survive on the road, they will reach Qingshan Prefecture in no time.
Wuning County is located in the southernmost part of Qingshan Prefecture, which means that if refugees want to go north, they must pass through Wuning County.
When that time comes, countless refugees will be stranded, and he wants to see what Yang Zhijin can do to preserve the food supply in Wuning County.
After all, people are extremely hungry, and when they see food, they are likely to do anything.
Once the refugees riot, he will have a reason to send troops, and it is normal for people to die in the chaos.
Without Yang Zhijin, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion would not be of use to the Third Prince, and the First Prince would have a better chance of ascending to the throne.
As for Yang Zhijin's memorial saying that there might be a locust plague in Qingshan Prefecture, he simply thought that Yang Zhijin was young and took the words of a humble farmer seriously.
There was also a message released today saying, "A locust plague is coming, so hurry up and collect the grain."
He didn't think it was true.
Li Mengyue didn't know that the news of the locust plague she released had reached the ears of the prefect.
The prefect also sent people to investigate and prepare to severely punish this person.
Having tried how useful teleportation is, Li Mengyue used it when she returned to the village from the county.
Although teleportation is useful, it is really expensive. It seems that we need to find a way to make more money, otherwise we won’t even be able to teleport freely in the future.
After putting the matter of making money in mind, Li Mengyue thought that the eight people from the Gongsun family had not come to the village yet.
Then I thought about the locust plague that was coming, so I decided to wait until the storm was over.
*
Village chief Li has informed the six village chiefs of the locust plague.
They all believed the news and hurried back to the village, asking everyone to harvest as soon as possible.
Village chief Li saw that several old friends left in a hurry without staying, and he had a deeper understanding of Li Mengyue's influence.
In his half life, he never thought that seven villages could work together to do the same thing.
And this change was undoubtedly brought about by Li Mengyue.
They secretly felt fortunate that their ancestors in the underworld still cared about them and specially sent a noble person to the village so that everyone could live a life with enough food and warm clothing.
Village chief Li had no idea at this moment that this noble lady Li Mengyue not only provided everyone with food and clothing, but also allowed them to live a rich life that they could not even imagine.
Of the eight villages in Qingshan Town, except for Zhulin Village, the other seven villages all picked up their tools and went to the fields to harvest rice.
Many elderly people have experienced locust plagues. Although so many years have passed, they are still frightened by the passage of locusts.
They will never forget that wherever the locusts went, all the green plants were eaten up, leaving behind bare branches and broken leaves, and everyone's desperate and helpless cries.
In years without locust plagues, when there was not enough food, people could still dig up wild vegetables and tree bark to fill their stomachs. But when the locusts passed through, there was nothing to eat anywhere, and countless people starved to death that year.
Therefore, whether the elderly in Xinghua Village, Lianhua Village, Taohua Village, Shitou Village, Guihua Village, Meihua Village, or Zhoujia Village, they all trembled with fear when they heard the words "locusts are coming."
Without waiting for the village chief to say when to harvest the crops, they all hurried home to get their tools to go to the fields.
A similar scene occurred in every village. The elderly who usually had poor legs and feet were jogging, fearing that the locusts would come before the rice was harvested.
"Hurry up, go to the fields and harvest the crops, before it's too late."
"We can't have a locust plague. The harvest this year is already bad. How can we survive if a locust plague comes?" Some old people were so scared that they knelt on the ground, kowtowed and cried.
"Hey, why are you crying? We got the news in advance, so it's not too late to collect grain now. Instead of crying, you might as well collect more grain."
The old man, who was crying bitterly, couldn't stop crying when he heard this. He jumped up and ran to the field.
Quite funny, yet very sad.
"I think what the village chief said is right. Look at the sky, it's dark and it doesn't look like it's raining. I think it's really a locust plague."
Some old people walked into the fields with sickles in their hands, not forgetting to look up at the sky.
The people walking next to him felt heavy in their hearts when they heard this.
"How could this be false? You didn't hear what the village chief said. This was the news released by Li Mengyue from Xinghua Village."
"Since that's what Li Mengyue said, then it's correct. We should hurry up and try to get the grain into the warehouse before tomorrow morning."
"Yes, yes, yes, hurry up, don't waste time."
"It's okay even if the locusts don't come. We'll just have to work a little harder. When they're over tomorrow, we can move the grain out. It's not a big deal." said a villager.
Regarding what the villager said, no one believed that locusts would not come.
After all, Li Mengyue said there would be a locust plague, so it was a foregone conclusion. How could they dare to have any hope of luck?
