Chapter 1798 Before the Locust Plague

After completing this series of actions, she called out loudly to her confidants outside the door to come in.

After a while, several strong and serious men walked quickly into the house and stood respectfully in front of her.

She handed the letter to one of them and solemnly instructed: "You must hurry up and deliver this letter to my hometown as soon as possible, day and night, without any delay!"

The confidants responded in unison, saying that they would definitely live up to the trust.

After her confidants left, Ye Zifen still couldn't calm down.

She paced back and forth in the room anxiously, her steps seeming a little messy.

Sometimes he stopped and gazed at the distant sky outside the window, as if he wanted to see the current scene of his hometown through the layers of clouds; sometimes he clenched his hands in front of his chest, silently praying that these measures to deal with the locust plague would be effective in time, and that the food that the people had worked so hard to grow would not be devoured by the locusts.

Then, Ye Zifen did not dare to delay for even a second and took swift action, looking for reliable people everywhere without stopping. She also told them in detail the solution that suddenly came to her mind.

At this time, Ye Zifen's brows were tightly furrowed, as if there were two deep grooves across her forehead, and her face looked extremely anxious, and she was running back and forth hurriedly on the vast grassland.

Moreover, the meticulous Ye Zifen knew that it would be difficult to accomplish the task alone, so she decisively gave orders and arranged for people to find all the scattered herders.

After everyone returned, Ye Zifen climbed up to a higher place on the grassland alone and shouted at the top of her voice.

Her cry was like a gust of wind, passing through the vast grassland and echoing for a long time.

You know, these artificial grasses that have grown with great effort and careful cultivation and care are the result of everyone's hard work!

We must not watch them become delicacies in the mouths of the aggressive locusts.

At this moment, Ye Zifen was staring at the green and tender grass in front of her, her eyes filled with endless heartache and worry.

Because of this, she immediately called everyone back, planning to have them collect the green grass by hand, and then after drying and other processing procedures, they could reserve some food for the cattle and sheep for the winter.

Whether it was the herdsmen who had lived here for generations and made a living by grazing, or the native Han friends, when they heard the terrifying news of the locust plague, all of them had looks of horror on their faces.

Their eyes were filled with fear and confusion, as if they had witnessed the horror of the end of the world. Their originally plain faces were now filled with deep fear of this unknown disaster.

However, just as everyone fell into chaos and despair, Ye Zifen stood up.

She calmly told everyone about the specific arrangements for dealing with the locust plague.

She looked calm and composed, without the slightest sign of panic or confusion; every word she uttered was firm and powerful, like a magic needle that firmly pierced people's hearts.

Gradually, the originally restless crowd began to calm down.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Zifen, their eyes full of expectation and unreserved trust in her.

Especially those families who raised chickens and ducks at home were secretly rejoicing in their hearts - thanks to the fact that they had hatched a batch of newborn chickens and ducklings.

Looking at those furry and extremely cute little creatures in front of them, people seemed to see a glimmer of hope in resisting the locust plague, and a glimmer of hope ignited in their hearts.

Everyone thought silently: Perhaps it is these seemingly weak chickens and ducks that can stand up at the critical moment and become the loyal guards of protecting the crops.

Moreover, it seems that the larger the size of the group, the higher the chance of successfully fighting the locust plague.

As a result, people began to actively communicate with each other.

At this moment, the looks in each other's eyes were no longer filled with boundless fear, but with a firm determination to unite as one.

At this moment, a group of people who were good at weaving webs hurried over to find Ye Zifen, hoping to get some valuable advice from her.

Their faces were full of worry, their hands tightly grasping the familiar web-weaving tools, they stood there anxiously, their eyes all focused on Ye Zifen, as if she was their only life-saving straw at the moment.

Facing the expectant eyes of the crowd, Ye Zifen did not hesitate at all. She said decisively and clearly: "Let's use wool to weave the net!"

These concise and clear words were like a stabilizing force, instantly giving reassurance to the originally hesitant people.

After hearing this decision, herders and Han people from different ethnic groups immediately took action.

Some people hurried to prepare sufficient wool raw materials, while others couldn't wait to pick up tools and began to skillfully weave fishing nets.

The scene was busy, with everyone busy shuttling back and forth, cooperating with each other tacitly, showing a strong spirit of unity and cooperation.

At the same time, Ye Zifen was not idle.

She came to the herdsmen in person and directed them to harvest grass in an orderly manner.

Her arms kept gesturing in the air and she kept issuing instructions. Her voice became a little hoarse due to her anxiety.

"Everyone, hurry up! If the locust plague cannot be stopped, we must prepare countermeasures in advance!"

While Ye Zifen was shouting loudly, she was nervously looking at the sky in the distance, fearing that those terrible locusts would suddenly descend.

Although her heart was filled with anxiety, her eyes remained firm, revealing her determination to never bow to difficulties.

This vast grassland had just finally regained new vitality and vigor, and no one had expected that it would encounter such a serious disaster again.

However, Ye Zifen knew that she could not just sit there and wait for death. She had to grit her teeth and lead the herdsmen in a desperate fight against this natural disaster with all her might.

At this moment, the sunlight fell on the sweat beads on her forehead, refracting colorful light, like sparkling gems.

The sickles were waving, the grass fell down, and everyone's movements were tense and orderly.

Ye Zifen also joined in. She bent over and worked hard to cut the grass, not daring to stop for a moment.

The grassland was a busy scene, with only the sound of sickles cutting grass and people's heavy breathing.

No one on the entire grassland will give up and everyone is fighting actively.
