Chapter 730 Sales
In the past, when Yinzhen was not the emperor, Yinxiang's visits to the fourth prince's mansion were like visiting the thirteenth prince's mansion, and he regarded it as his own home.

Now that Yinzhen is enthroned as emperor, Yinxiang still has privileges. He doesn't need to inform Yinzhen when he comes to see him, he can come in without hesitation.

Following the little eunuch's cool "Prince Yi is here", Yinzhen, who was sitting behind the imperial case and flipping through the booklet, looked up towards the door.

"What's in your hand?" He saw the bag in Yinxiang's hand clearly and asked curiously.

"Locusts." Yinxiang raised the bag in his hand, walked up to Yinzhen in a few steps, and opened it for him to see.

Looking at the dense green locusts in the bag, Yinzhen showed a look of disgust on his face, "What are you doing with this?"

"Eat. In Daoxiang Village just now, Rao'er ordered the kitchen staff to cook some side dishes, all of which used locusts as the main ingredient, and the taste was not bad." Yinxiang tied up the mouth of the bag again to prevent the locusts from running out.

Yinzhen"……"

Just like Yin Xiang's reaction when he heard Yi Rao talking about eating locusts for the first time, Yin Zhen didn't know what words to use to describe his complicated mood.

Yinxiang explained with a wry smile, "fourth brother, I have no choice. This locust is really edible, and it is the best way to kill locusts. Anyway, I can't just stand by and watch the locusts raging without doing anything. I have to find a way to kill them." they!"

Yinxiang clenched his fists.

A person lives in this world, fighting against the sky and man, he will never give in!

Yinzhen only felt that his throat was a little dry. He stared blankly at the bag in Yinxiang's hand, and felt that Yinxiang was too aggressive. This heart... is really touching!

"Since the thirteenth brother has eaten, let's hand it over to the imperial dining room, and let them make a few side dishes with this as the main ingredient." Yinzhen said without the slightest hesitation.

Yinxiang hummed and handed the bag to the eunuch, then he sat down and discussed with Yinzhen about dealing with the locusts.

"Fourth brother, the locust stays for too short a time. We must take countermeasures as soon as possible. I hope you can be anxious for all civil and military officials to eat with them. If we eat it, the people below will naturally have nothing to eat." scruples."

Yinzhen pondered for a while, then nodded slowly, "I'll let Hui'er eat too. He's the prince, and he should set an example for all people."

Yinxiang silently mourned for Honghui in his heart, "Since this is the case, then let this kid Hongdan follow suit. He must follow Honghui closely from now on."

Yinzhen's face, which had been gloomy for a few days, finally showed a little smile, "It's difficult for the king, let these two boys know that it is not easy to govern the world."

Seeing that Yinxiang's frown was relaxed, Yinxiang also breathed a sigh of relief. Now that Yinzhen has just ascended the throne, there are droughts and locust plagues. He must be under great pressure.

"Fourth brother, don't be too burdened. You have followed Huang Ama's will to become the emperor. You, the emperor, are right and proper, and no one can shake you."

Yinzhen sighed quietly, "I'm worried that someone will take advantage of this to attack me, saying that God is dissatisfied with my ascension to the throne, and deliberately sent disasters to punish me and the people."

"Then you should work hard to eradicate the locusts and ensure that the people do not starve to death. We have even won the throne, so there is nothing we can't overcome. In fact, this is also a good opportunity to buy people's hearts. As long as we deal with it properly, the people will see you If you are wise and great, then they are willing to support you."

Follow the emperor to have food, don't worry about starving to death, who would have the time to rebel?
It’s not that there are nine lives, and if one dies, there are eight left. The Chinese people are hardworking, kind and simple, easy to be satisfied, but timid, easy to rule.

Just keep them fed.

Encouraged by Yinxiang, Yinzhen felt much better.

In fact, his temperament is a bit stubborn, and he will not admit defeat. Of course, he will try his best to survive this disaster.But now Yinxiang is by his side to support him, encourage him, and share this heavy burden with him, which makes him feel better.

He is not fighting alone, he has the closest brothers to support him!
Brothers of the same heart, their profits cut through gold!
After eating the locust dish, Yinzhen, who had greatly increased his confidence, was full of praise for the fried locusts. Hearing that Yirao planned to set up many large pots at the gate of the city to use them as fried locusts, he raised his eyebrows at Yinxiang. Thumbs up, straight to praise Yirao's high awareness and kind heart.

Now that he was sure that the locusts were edible and tasted good, Yinzhen immediately summoned all the civil and military officials, intending to put the matter on the table, so that the news could spread to all parts of Hebei Province as soon as possible, so that the common people would know.

Of course, he ordered people to catch some locusts in advance, and ordered the imperial dining room to fry them. When the civil and military officials came, he asked the eunuchs to carry plates for the civil and military officials to share.

He won't say what these are, until these people eat them.

At that time, even if these people objected, they would still have locusts in their stomachs.

Yinzhen's plan was very good. These people are nobles. Where have they eaten locusts? Now the locusts have their heads and legs removed, leaving only their bodies wrapped in white flour. None of them recognized that they were locusts. They ate them one by one. I thought that Yinzhen had discovered some new food and specially invited them to taste it.

Yinzhen is very likely to do such a thing. He is an emperor with a lot of interest in life, loves food, loves art, and has a pair of eyes that are good at discovering and appreciating beauty.

However, Yinzhen's taste has always been bland, why did he think of selling fried food to everyone this time?
While the ministers were munching on fried locusts and thinking about it, Yinzhen, who was sitting on the throne, said with a smile, "My loves, how does this taste?"

"Not bad, quite chewy."

"Very crispy and fragrant."

"It's delicious. As expected of the emperor's invention of food, the taste is just different."

The voices that answered came one after another, all praising the taste of fried locusts.

Can it be bad, this is the first time Yinzhen has eaten in the court, who dare not boast.

Yinzhen and Yinxiang looked at each other, and found a smile in each other's eyes. Yinzhen coughed softly, looked at the officials standing below, and asked again, "Do you know what this food is?"

They all shook their heads. It was the first time they saw this thing, and it was covered with a layer of flour and added a lot of seasoning. They really didn't recognize what it was.

"This food, in fact, everyone knows it. For thousands of years, it has always been a serious problem for the people and the emperor."

"I beg your majesty to clarify." Yinfeng stood up and said respectfully.

"The food is the locusts that are raging crops in Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces." Yinzhen looked at Yinfeng and said calmly.

What is a thunder on the ground?
What Xu Zhen said was that when he said this, everyone looked as if they had eaten a dead mouse, and their faces turned pale and pale, as exciting as it could be.

Many people clutched their stomachs and retched, trying to spit out the locusts they had just eaten.

It's disgusting, how can people of their status eat such inferior things!
