After receiving the order, Qiao Erlang began to live a heartless life again. Anyway, his grandmother said that he should live his life as he wished.
My fighting spirit was instantly high again!
"Ah grandma, I'm going to catch river shrimps!"
"OK!"
Qiao Xin deserves to be free! In spring, children need to exercise more to stay healthy.
There is not much work to do in the fields now. The astragalus that has been sown for half a month is growing wildly, and the purple flowers have already sprouted. In another three or five days, the reclaimed wasteland in Laohu Town will become a sea of ​​purple flowers.
After the astragalus has withered, you can add water to the field, and then plow the field a second time, soaking the astragalus in muddy water. In less than half a month, it will become a good fertilizer.
The breeding of seedlings can only begin in April, so it’s not the right time yet!
The young men in the family have long been accustomed to the days of going out early and coming back late. They are all full of energy, but now that they are suddenly idle, they feel uncomfortable!
But thinking about the situation on the North Mountain, although there are more than a thousand acres of mountain land, the peach orchard, pear orchard, and chestnut forest account for a small proportion, at most only three or four hundred acres, and many places are just bushes overgrown with weeds.
Qiao Xin wondered whether she could consider growing more fruits?
Where pears can be planted, dates can also be planted. Where chestnuts can be planted, tea can also be interplanted. If you can plant a few apples or cherries, you can also plant a few acres of grapes. No matter whether it tastes good or not, you just need to plant it first!
Anyway, it's your own land. If you want to achieve fruit freedom, you can do whatever you want! If it really doesn't work, there is always a little cheating expert to help you!
Now we have to see how to better plan the remaining land!
Thinking of this, Qiao Xin couldn't sit still any longer. She raised her voice and shouted to the others in the inner courtyard: "I'm going to the mountain to check the situation!"
Qiao Dalang and Qiao Sanlang rushed out immediately: "Grandma, there are a lot of bees in the peach forest. Yesterday when we went to pick fruit, someone was stung and his skin was swollen on the spot!"
"Really? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Qiao Xin couldn't sit still after hearing what her grandson said. She decided to go and have a look immediately. Sometimes children can't tell the difference between a bee and a wasp!
If hornets come to investigate, you have to find a way to get rid of them, otherwise once they occupy the place, a single sting could be fatal.
"You two go check on the child who was stung yesterday to see if the swelling has subsided. Ask your Grandpa Mo to get some medicine and send it over. I'll go to the mountain to take a look. If it's bees, I'll make two beehives later. Let's try raising bees so you can have honey to eat."
"Then let's go with grandma!"
"No, I'm afraid it's a wasp. I can get rid of it alone, but it would be dangerous if I bring you along!"
Qiao Xin walked all the way to the mountain, listening to the system promoting the varieties of bees and the design drawings of beehives in his mind like presenting treasures.
"Host, do you want to replace a few queen bees? The bee population on the platform is much better than the wild bees of this era. They are all selected and preserved after years of elimination by technology. I guarantee you will be satisfied!"
"Yeah?"
"Of course, there is another kind of bee in your hometown. It has strong collecting ability, long honey collection time, good adaptability, good disease resistance, and eats little. It has long been famous in the system platform. Do you want to buy a few?"
"Um!"
system:........
The system was confused: Why is this evil spirit so easy to talk to today? He doesn't want to bargain at all, and it suddenly feels uncomfortable!
The system carefully confirmed again: "Do you really want it?"
"It's as good as you said. Buy it! Are you thinking about my merit points again?"
"Look at what you said. Am I that kind of boss? Isn't this just what you're worried about and what you're thinking about?"
The system would never admit that it was really envious of Qiao Xin's newly acquired 10,000 merit points. Its previous colleague tried so hard to tempt the original owner Qiao Xin to embark on the road of hegemony, but it was not as good as the waterwheel farm tool that Qiao Xin casually gave it, which brought more benefits to the soil improvement.
This reality made her shut herself in for several days. After thinking it over, she decided to become a good helper for Qiao Xin in farming. After all, the country is based on the people, and the people depend on food for their survival. The era that can solve the problem of people having enough food and clothing is the dynasty that everyone yearns for, and the countless merit points are no less than the share of expanding territory and unifying the world.
For the first time, Qiao Xin expressed her recognition of the system's capabilities. "I trust you. I'll leave the seed selection to you. You'll also be responsible for all after-sales services! If there are any problems with the device in the future, you'll be responsible!"
The system was stunned: How could it become a lifelong responsibility system if it is just selling something?
Considering that this was the first time Qiao Xin extended an olive branch to him, he gritted his teeth, spit out two merit points, and secretly exchanged for a copy of "The Encyclopedia of Beekeeping", then told Qiao Xin with a painful heart that this was a gift for buying bees!
Qiao Xin's knowledge of bees and wasps was limited to the differences in their appearances, and she had absolutely no idea about their respective living habits.
But no matter how naive she was, she could tell that the black thing under the peach tree was a hornet's nest!
The system quickly reminded: "Host, there is trouble. It is a golden ring wasp. The largest can be 10 centimeters long. This thing likes to attack bees. It eats one by one with its big mouth. The key is that they don't leave after eating. Instead, they kill them first.
It has a strong toxin and can easily kill small animals. Generally, no one dares to mess with it. If you don't clean it up, you won't be able to keep bees within a hundred miles!"
Especially the poisonous stinger at the back of the tail, which can be ejected and used repeatedly. It is not like ordinary bees which sting others and then die themselves!
"Everything thrives and counteracts each other. I don't believe that its tribe has no natural enemies!"
The system was silent for a moment, then told the truth, "Yes, there are. Rats, magpies, and even hornets are its natural enemies, but those natural enemies also kill bees! Moreover, biological natural enemies can only maintain a balance and cannot be eradicated at all."
Qiao Xin sighed silently. It looked like she was in real trouble this time!
We have to find a complete solution!
"Besides, they plan to settle down here. This area will be their territory in the future. If other bee colonies join in, it will be a fight to the death!"
The most worrying thing right now is to prevent these guys from accidentally hurting people.
Qiao Xin looked around again and didn't find the second beehive, so she turned around and went down the mountain! She told everyone about the situation on the host, and Li Zhong and his group were the first to get nervous.
"What can we do? Hornets usually come in swarms, and one or two bites from them can kill a person. If a whole nest of them attacks a person, I can't imagine the scene. They are very poisonous! Where I used to live, there were hunters who accidentally provoked wild bees while hunting and were poisoned to death every year."
After hearing this, everyone present hugged their children tightly. Thinking about how these naughty kids were wandering around in the peach forest yesterday, they were terrified when they thought about it now!
