Chapter 101: Bug Catching Team
There are so many crayfish to eat, Bai Tao decided to eat to her heart's content!

Let me eat bugs by myself?!

How can this be.

Bai Duoxi immediately said, "Aunt, we will eat bugs with you."

When Bai Tao heard this, her forehead twitched, and she slapped the back of his head with her soft little hands, scolding, "You are the one who eats bugs. I said, this is crayfish, crayfish, crayfish!!!"

"Oh, okay, okay." Bai Duoxi quickly corrected herself: "Auntie, I called it wrong, it was crayfish."

Although this insect, well, I would say it's a crayfish.

This crayfish looks ugly, but if you prepare it as I said, it should be edible, right?!

Bai Duoxi thought to himself, at worst, I'll test the food for poison before it comes out of the pot.

"Hmph, go quickly." Bai Tao waved her hand and reminded, "Remember, remove the shrimp thread."

"Hey, auntie, I'll save that." Bai Duoxi responded while thinking in her heart, how can a worm have shrimp thread?
It seems that it is indeed not a bug. My aunt mentioned before that there is a kind of shrimp in the sea, which is particularly large. It is called a lobster. One can weigh three to five kilograms. It is very big and delicious.

Could it be that these crayfish grow on the ground, so they are called crayfish? !

As Bai Duoxi led the people in charge of cooking to clean up, he felt that what he had thought was almost right, and his worries were suddenly reduced a lot.

A few sacks of crayfish may seem like a lot, but there are more than 200 people in Taohua Village. If each person only has three or five kilograms, it is definitely not enough.

Thinking of this, Bai Tao called for help.

"Mountain."

On the side, Bai Qi came forward quickly and said, "Auntie, the shopkeeper has gone to the stable in the backyard to check on the horses."

"Is that so?" Bai Tao nodded to show that she understood, and then instructed: "Then go and inform those who don't have any important work to go out and catch some crayfish for me."

"Within half an hour, catch as many as you can, no matter how big or small." If it's any later, it will be dark, and if you bring them back earlier, they can clean up, and Bai Duoxi and the others can do it in time.

The leftovers can be sold to the mall. See how smart she is!

Catching bugs?
Bai Qi was only slightly stunned, but quickly responded: "Auntie, I'll go right away."

This was the first thing she did after becoming my aunt's personal maid, and she had to do it well.

Before entering the city, the villagers had already spent a few minutes catching crayfish. They were not afraid then, and they are even less afraid now.

Therefore, except for those who really found it inconvenient to go out, more than a hundred villagers went out in groups of three or five, carrying sacks, carrying bamboo baskets, and wearing gloves.

Qingzhou had been troubled by these bugs that appeared out of nowhere for three or four months, and he was never very annoyed.

Near dusk today, I saw some people who came from nowhere catching insects everywhere in the city.

Among these people there were old and young, three or five of them gathered together, without saying much. When they saw the insects, they would run over, pick them up very skillfully, and throw them into bamboo baskets or sacks.

If the container is almost full, just tie the bag tightly or carry it in your hands or shoulders, and someone will be responsible for transporting it away on a cart.

It's obvious from the look of it that these people are not sent by the government to clean up insects.

The pedestrians passing by on the street and the people working in the shops on both sides of the street looked on with curiosity. Why were these people picking up disgusting and scary insects?
Could it be that he is an additional insect catcher hired by the government?

This should have been done a long time ago. Although there are not as many insects in the city as in the suburbs, there are still quite a few. Cleaning them up once every hour during the day is not enough.

Bai Xiaocao also went out to catch insects with a few other children.

In the streets where they live, there are villagers every few dozen or even hundreds of meters in the streets and alleys, so there is no need to worry about insecurity.

Relying on their young age, they are agile in running, bending and squatting, and they pick up the things very quickly.

Just at this time, I met the insect catching team in the city who were responsible for cleaning up the insects on this street.

I saw three carts behind them, each with five or six sacks on it.

Something flashed through Bai Xiaocao's eyes, and she ran forward and asked obediently: "Big brothers, can you give me these insects in your hands?" The aunt said, don't hit a smiling person.

When you are out, being a little sweet-talker can give people a good impression and make it easier to win other people's favor and achieve your goals.

The reason why she didn't shout "Crayfish" was that she was afraid of attracting unnecessary questions.

The insect catching team was just preparing to push the cleared insects to a centralized incineration location, when they unexpectedly saw someone catching insects on the street.

Apart from those of them who receive monthly salaries, there are actually people who clean up the bugs?

Just when they were wondering, a little girl came up to ask for bugs, and the bug catching team was puzzled.

"What do you want this bug for?"

Bai Xiaocao's eyes turned, and she lowered her head and raised it again, with hesitation on her face. She pursed her lips and stammered, "Just, just, um, eat."

The aunt said it was edible and she was telling the truth. If these people don’t believe her, there is nothing she can do!
"Eating bugs?" The bug catching team exclaimed in surprise.

They have been catching insects every day during this period. The sight of these insects makes them feel sick. They even dream about insects and wish that all these insects would die as soon as possible.

How could anyone eat this bug?!
Is this insect edible?
The members of the bug catching team looked at each other and saw disgust on each other's faces.

In fact, they almost vomited after hearing this.

However, they looked at the clothes on Bai Xiaocao and then looked behind her not far away. They saw several children who were obviously with her. How could they not know what was going on?

Did he escape from outside? !

It's so small, I'm afraid it must have nothing to fill its stomach, so it thinks of eating insects.

"These bugs can't be eaten." Although every time they cleaned the bugs and sent them to burn, they could smell an indescribable fragrance.

But bugs are bugs, how can they be eaten?

Bai Xiaocao looked up at him, with a look of trepidation and helplessness on her face, and said haltingly, "But, but..."

"We just arrived in the city and have been traveling all day. We are very hungry. If, if..."

Seeing her embarrassed and ashamed expression, another member of the bug-catching team said indifferently: "Okay, give it to them."

These days, there are so many people who can’t survive.

Having insects to eat is better than eating tree bark or gnawing on Guanyin soil.

As long as they don’t eat it, it’s fine.

It was tiring enough for them to clean up these bugs, and now that someone wanted them, they wouldn't have to push them to the south of the city and burn them.

"Thank you, big brothers. Thank you. You are really good people."

As Bai Xiaocao spoke, he said to his friends not far behind him, "Come on, these big brothers are willing to give us the bugs."

When they saw Bai Xiaocao leading the insect catching team, some of the other girls were puzzled, while others quickly reacted.

When he heard Bai Xiaocao calling him, he immediately ran up happily.
