Chapter 117 Let's Eat
On the way back, Lu Bu kept looking at the faces of Zhang Hu and the others.
The locusts these guys ate, don't really have anything to do with them.
Fortunately, after returning to the mansion, Zhang Hu and others did not have any accidents, so Lu Bu felt relieved.
Early the next morning, Lu Bu checked the faces of Zhang Hu and the others again. After confirming that there was nothing serious, he immediately sent for Chen Gong and Zhang Miao.
Zhang Miao and Chen Gong came to Lu Mansion anxiously, "Marquis Wen, what's the matter?"
The two of them were organizing manpower to guard against locusts, and they were exhausted physically and mentally.
Lu Bu waved his hand, "Gongtai, Meng Zhuo, this time the Marquis called you over, just to treat you to something to eat."
"Eat?"
Hearing this, Chen Gong's expression turned ugly, and he said bluntly, "Marquis Wen, it's an extraordinary time, how can I have the heart to eat something good."
Zhang Miao sighed, "If you don't solve the locust problem quickly, even if it is delicious, it will be tasteless!"
Lu Bu laughed, "You two, maybe you won't think so after seeing what Benhou asked you to eat."
After saying this, Lu Bu yelled outside the door, "Zhang Hu, bring the things up."
Not long after, Zhang Hu and the others came in from outside the door with three jars in hand, then put them in front of the three of them, turned and left the room.
Lu Bu made a gesture of invitation, "Gongtai, Meng Zhuo, please."
Full of doubts, Zhang Miao stretched out his hand to open the lid of the jar, only glanced at it, his expression changed, and he hastily put the lid back on.
"Marquis Wen, what is this, could it be?"
Seeing Zhang Miao's ugly face, Chen Gong also hastily opened the lid, and suddenly exclaimed.
"Locust, Marquis Wen, do you want to invite us to eat locusts?"
Lu Bu did not answer his words, but opened the lid of the jar and put it aside, reached out and took out a golden locust from inside, "Gongtai, don't be surprised, this food is very delicious."
To be honest, Lu Bu has never eaten it, but it is impossible not to eat it now!
If this thing is really edible, then the locusts are no longer a disaster, but food for everyone.
Thinking of this, Lu Bu didn't change his face, he glanced at the locust in his hand, then threw it into his mouth, and chewed it slowly.
"Delicious, really delicious."
Lu Bu only took a bite, then his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help admiring.
Then, he took out another locust and threw it into his mouth, chewing it.
"Gongtai, Meng Zhuo, why don't you eat it, it's delicious."
Chen Gong put the lid on, and said with a wry smile, "Wen Hou, even if it's delicious, I really don't want to eat it, Wen Hou should enjoy it alone."
Zhang Miao also shook his head again and again, "Forget it, I don't want to eat either."
Lu Bu frowned, and said slowly, "Gongtai, Meng Zhuo, have you ever thought about what would happen if everyone ate locusts?"
Hearing this sentence, Chen Gong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, looked down at the jar in front of him, and suddenly said with emotion.
"In ancient times, Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs to save the common people in the world. Now, Marquis Wen is willing to eat locusts for the sake of the people of Yanzhou. I really admire him."
Speaking of this, Chen Gong cupped his hands to Lu Bu, and said loudly, "Since Marquis Wen is willing to sacrifice his life for righteousness, how can I be willing to lag behind."
After saying this, Chen Gong gritted his teeth, lifted the lid of the jar, grabbed a locust without looking at it, threw it directly into his mouth, and began to chew slowly.
As the scent of locusts spread in his mouth, Chen Gong's eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Oh, I didn't expect that locusts are so delicious. It's really unexpected."
Zhang Miao knew that Chen Gong was an upright person and never lied, since he said it was delicious?
Thinking of this, Zhang Miao looked down at the jar, thinking, is this really delicious?
When Zhang Miao put the first locust into his mouth and chewed it, he immediately knew that everything Chen Gong said was true.
"It smells so good, it's really delicious, it's really delicious in the world."
Chen Gong suddenly put down the locust in his hand, turned to look at Lu Bu, and said with a smile, "Marquis Wen, locusts are so delicious, it's not appropriate for only us to eat them?"
Lu Bu was taken aback, "Gongtai, what do you have to say?"
Chen Gong said with a smile, "Why don't we eat on the city wall so that everyone can see it."
Zhang Miao frowned, "Isn't it inappropriate to eat in front of too many people on the city wall?"
Speaking of this, Zhang Miao suddenly came to his senses, snapped at the case, and said with a smile, "Gongtai, you are right, we really should go to places with a lot of people to eat."
The three of them looked at each other, and they all understood each other's intentions, and couldn't help laughing up to the sky.
"Haha."
……
That day, the people of Puyang heard shocking news from various channels.
"Do you know that Marquis Wen is eating on the city wall today?"
"I don't know, maybe Marquis Wen is too tired, so is it strange to eat something on the city wall?"
"What do you know? Do you know what Marquis Wen eats?"
"I don't know, tell me quickly, what does Marquis Wen usually eat?"
The person who spoke immediately pretended to have an inscrutable look on his face, "Who is Wen Hou, who eats the same food and has the same physical fitness as us?"
"If you don't say it, I'll beat you up if you don't."
"Well, let me tell you, what Marquis Wen ate on the city wall was locusts."
"Oh!"
"What did you say, locust?"
Lu Bu's fame in Puyang is so great that no one can match it. His words and deeds will become the talk of the people.
Especially today, Marquis Wen actually ate locusts. Such breaking news was known to everyone in Puyang City in just one or two hours.
There are locusts around the common people. Since Marquis Wen treats them as delicacies, how about he also tastes the delicacies?
As a result, after these people tasted it, they realized that it was almost a delicacy that he had never tasted in his life.
Most importantly, this delicacy does not cost money and can be obtained at any time.
That afternoon, the people in Puyang City went crazy.
The wealthy households in Puyang knew that Marquis Wen was also eating locusts, so of course they followed suit. After eating, they were all full of praise.
But they would not go to the fields with the people to snatch locusts, so they spent money to buy them.
In order to subsidize their families, the common people are also willing to sell the captured locusts in the city.
In this way, a lot of market prosperity has been increased, and the common people have some spare money.
The locusts flew from the direction of the Guandong, and the first to bear the brunt was of course Puyang.
According to the original history, Puyang City was severely injured after suffering this disaster, and countless people became refugees.
Because of this disaster, Lu Bu gradually lost the wind in the battle with Cao Cao.
Lu Bu is good at fighting, but not good at management. If he has enough food and property, he will not be afraid of anyone just for fighting, even Cao Cao cannot be his opponent.
