Chapter 1806 The Locust Plague Ends

This land, once devastated by locust plagues, has finally regained its former tranquility and peace.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, the grass is green. The breeze gently blows the grass, making a rustling sound, as if whispering about this hard-earned victory.

After successfully solving the problem of the locust infestation here, Ye Zifen did not dare to delay for even a moment and quickly picked up her pen to write letters to various places to inform them of the situation.

I saw the pen in her hand jumping and dancing on the white paper quickly and accurately like a nimble dancer, and each vigorous and powerful word appeared on the paper.

These characters are not just simple text symbols, they are more like messengers carrying infinite hope and heavy responsibilities, about to rush to various places to deliver important messages.

At this time, Ye Zifen knew very well that although they had tried their best to control the locusts in the vast grassland, she still knew nothing about the locust plague in other areas.

With an uneasy mood, she slowly raised her head and looked at the grassland that had just experienced the baptism of locust plague and was now temporarily restored to peace.

However, even though the scene before her seemed peaceful and harmonious, Ye Zifen's tightly furrowed brows never relaxed at all.

However, Ye Zifen is not the kind of person who gives up easily.

Despite facing many difficulties and challenges, she was still determined to go south with Zhang Gaoyi and others, go deep into the disaster area to learn more about the actual situation, and do her best to help the affected people overcome the difficulties.

This deep-seated belief made her eyes exceptionally sharp, like two torches, seemingly able to penetrate the thick fog and see clearly the difficulties and obstacles hidden on the road ahead.

It's a pity that due to their current special identities and the important missions they shoulder, it is really inconvenient for them to leave here and go elsewhere to provide support.

After careful consideration, Ye Zifen finally decided to send capable people to replace them.

Although her heart was filled with helplessness and regret, she was decisive and unambiguous when arranging specific personnel.

Relying on the valuable experience accumulated over these days, Ye Zifen explained in detail to the people who were about to set off various effective methods to deal with the locust plague.

From how to accurately determine the locusts' activity trajectory to choosing appropriate prevention and control measures, to how to ensure one's own safety, etc., she repeatedly emphasized every key detail without getting tired of it, making sure that the dispatched personnel were fully aware of all relevant knowledge.

At the same time, the final inventory of various materials used to fight the locust plague is also being carried out in an orderly manner.

Every item, including chickens, ducks, windmills, etc., is carefully checked and verified to ensure sufficient quantity and reliable quality.

After everything was ready, those people who were entrusted with the important task resolutely embarked on a journey full of unknowns and hardships, carrying everyone's full expectations and blessings.

At the same time, Ye Zifen and others did not slack off at all.

They race against time to engage in a new round of work, either carefully sowing grass seeds full of hope, or deftly harvesting crops that are about to mature in the fields.

The scorching sun hung high in the sky, mercilessly burning the earth. Beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down their foreheads, like pearls that had broken off a string, falling drop by drop into the fertile land beneath their feet and disappearing without a trace in an instant.

However, even in such unbearable heat, they still bent over and kept busy with the work at hand.

While Ye Zifen was worried about other things, she also had to make arrangements for other places.

Since a batch of lush grass had been successfully harvested, the cattle and sheep raised at home were not short of food for the time being.

These docile livestock are now leisurely chewing the fresh green grass, and from time to time they make a contented "bleat" or "moo" sound.

After some time, when the grain harvest is good, the remaining straw can also become delicious food for cattle and sheep.

For Ye Zifen and others, this is not only something they look forward to, but also an important hope that supports their future lives.

Unfortunately, the flock of chickens and ducks raised at home met with an unexpected disaster - they were forcibly abducted by passing soldiers.

This sudden change was a heavy blow to some Han people, and they became dazed.

They often gaze into the distance in a daze, their eyes filled with unspeakable loss and helplessness.

It was as if the chickens and ducks that were taken away were not ordinary poultry, but treasures in their hearts.

Perhaps, deep down in their hearts, they have already determined that the chickens and ducks they have taken such good care of will never return to their side again.

He murmured unconsciously, his voice trembling slightly, revealing endless sorrow and despair.

Fortunately, these anxious days did not last long.

As the crops in the fields gradually mature, the golden waves of wheat rise and fall with the wind, like a surging golden ocean, and their rise and fall seem to be whispering the joy of the upcoming harvest.

Ye Zifen stood quietly at the edge of the vast wheat field, the breeze gently caressing her hair and the sunlight shining on her pretty face, reflecting her full feeling of gratitude.

She raised her head slightly, staring into the distance, and murmured softly, "It's okay, it's okay..."

It seems as if it is expressing its deepest feelings to this fertile land.

I remember that bitterly cold season, the biting cold wind whistled past, making people shiver.

At that time, faced with such harsh weather conditions, the people around were all hesitant and everyone thought that this was not the best time to sow.

However, Ye Zifen had no intention of backing down.

She bit her lips and secretly made up her mind to seize this opportunity.

So, on that day when the cold wind was still raging, she led everyone bravely to the empty land by the river.

The wind at that time was as cold as a knife, scraping people's cheeks mercilessly, but Ye Zifen was not afraid.

She bent down and held the precious wheat seeds in her hands, as if she were protecting her most beloved treasure, and then carefully sowed them into the soil.

Every time you bend down and every time you raise your hand, it is an earnest anticipation for a good harvest in the future.

In this way, day after day passed, and the weather gradually became warmer.

Ye Zifen also developed a habit - every morning, she would come to the river early and couldn't wait to run to the land that belonged to her.

Her beautiful eyes were always fixed on the ground, afraid of missing any slight changes.

God helps those who work hard. Finally one day, when the first tender green bud tenaciously broke through the soil and poked its head out, Ye Zifen was so excited that she almost cried out.
