"But Dahan, what you said is right. This hornet's nest is indeed a big treasure. Just getting such a hornet's nest is worth at least ten yuan." Xu Qingfeng looked at the hornet's nest on the tree and said it was a lie if he said he was not impressed. .

This thing can be said to be full of treasures.

"Boss, what you said made me a little confused. Isn't there no honey in it? Why return it to Da Baobao? Boss, you must be laughing at me." Dahan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Do you only have honey in your eyes? Let me tell you, although there is no honey in the hornet's nest, there are bee pupae. Now is spring, and it is also the season to pick hornets' nests. Although it is dangerous, it is worth trying. That's right, yes Pay attention to methods and strategies." Xu Qingfeng told the two of them.

When Da Han and Er Han heard Xu Qingfeng's words, they immediately became interested.

"Boss, tell us how to do it." Dahan said.

Xu Qingfeng looked at the restless two people and decided to forget it.

If you let them pick a wasp's nest, they will be giving heads to the wasps.

"This hornet's nest is too big. Even I don't dare to do it, let alone you. We still have to let professionals do it." Xu Qingfeng said.

He remembered that there was a beekeeper in the village named Xu Erxi.

For this kind of thing, just find a professional.

But before digging into the hornet's nest, you have to agree on the price with him.

These days, most people don’t know the value of wasps.

Bee pupae, wasp nests, and even wasps will all be treasures in the hereafter.

But nowadays, in most eyes, wasps are a scourge.

Especially in the eyes of beekeepers, there is even more hatred and sworn hatred.

Xu Qingfeng took note of the location, and then went back to the village with the Dahan brothers to invite reinforcements.

"Boss, you said this thing is a treasure. What if Erxi gets jealous?" Dahan didn't quite understand why Xu Qingfeng wanted to ask the beekeeper to dig out the honeycomb.

Xu Qingfeng didn't need him to understand this.

"Dahan, a person's power is limited. You can't do everything and know everything. People, you have to learn to let others help you." Xu Qingfeng said.

Even Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang needed help to start their own businesses.

No matter how awesome one person is, he can't compete with others as a team.

This is not a fantasy world, where the Emperor Wu suppresses the sky, and one person gets drunk. Ah, no, one person can destroy the world...

Xu Qingfeng also knew that he was just an ordinary person.

It's just that after rebirth, his physical fitness is stronger than before, and he knows some things that will happen in the next few decades.

That's all.

After a while, they arrived at Erxi's home.

The place where the beekeeper lives is also quite remote, next to a mountain.

Because beehives must be placed in deep mountains and old forests.

Now, Erxi is worrying at home.

So when Xu Qingfeng and the others arrived, Er Xi didn't have much of a smile on his face, but he was from the same village after all. He still smiled kindly at Xu Qingfeng and asked Xu Qingfeng what they were doing.

"Uncle Er Xi, it's like this. I found a hornet's nest and wanted to ask, can you dig this thing out? If you can..." Xu Qingfeng got straight to the point and said to Er Xi.

Unexpectedly, Erxi stood up immediately and said, "Where are the wasps? These little bastards have been causing trouble to my house all day long. I can't wait to burn them all to death right away."

"Ah this?"

Xu Qingfeng didn't expect that this was what Erxi was worried about.

After a simple communication, the two hit it off.

Erxi doesn't even want money. As long as Xu Qingfeng tells him where the hornet's nest is, he can help Xu Qingfeng get it for free without charging a penny.

But he has one condition, that is, all the wasps inside must be killed.

Prevent these wasps from continuing to squander their own bees.

Xu Qingfeng felt that it would be somewhat unkind to not give him money, so he still promised to give Erxi five yuan as a reward.

As Xu Qingfeng thought just now, most people now, including beekeepers, do not know the economic value of wasps.

The wasp's nest, the bee pupae in the honeycomb, and even the wasp itself are all medicinal materials in the field of traditional Chinese medicine and are widely used.

In addition to the income from honey, beekeepers of later generations also derived a large part of their income from digging hornets' nests.

There are even professional wasp keepers.

Even raising wasps is quite dangerous, compared to raising bees.

Erxi’s troubles are also the troubles of most beekeepers.

Because wasps are the natural enemies of bees.

The wasp's diet includes bees.

Moreover, wasps are a dimensionality-reducing blow to bees.

A wasp can enter a bee's hive and easily eat the queen bee as if it were in an uninhabited area.

Therefore, beekeepers and wasps are extremely difficult to deal with.

Cutting off someone's financial path is like killing one's parents.

Erxi's hatred for Wasp is natural.

In spring, the ice and snow in Changbai Mountain melt, and the flower season is about to begin.

It can be said that beekeepers rely on this time to make money.

But these wasps appeared mysteriously and attacked the bees picking flowers.

Erxi quickly brought the tools and put them on the deer cart. He couldn't wait to solve the hornet's nest.

But Xu Qingfeng told him not to worry.

It's not night yet, and the wasps haven't returned to their nests at this time.

Don’t you have to wait until night to pluck the hornet’s nest?

Erxi slapped his head: "I was so worried by these wasps that I forgot about this."

Normally, he would definitely have an above-average IQ.

But looking at the dark circles under his eyes, you can tell that he hasn't had a good rest in the past few days.

It can be seen that these wasps have caused him a lot of trouble.

"Uncle Er Xi, you can take a nap now and have dinner. It won't be too late for us to set off again. We will come find you then." Xu Qingfeng said to Er Xi.

Erxi secretly thought that Xu Qingfeng was extremely reliable in everything he said and did.

No wonder people in the village have been praising him these days.

It seems that the reputation is true. The second son of the Xu family was injured when he went into the mountains last winter, and he really became enlightened.

Soon, Xu Qingfeng and Dahan Erhan left.

But instead of going home, they went to Orion's house in the village.

Xu Qingfeng was still thinking about what Dahan had said before, that the hunters in the village were old and could no longer go into the mountains, so he planned to sell the hunting dogs.

Dahan and Erhan originally wanted to steal, but Xu Qingfeng scolded him.

Hunting dogs are not expensive, so why do you need to do such sneaky things?

Before Xu Qingfeng and others arrived at the hunter's house, they already heard the barking of dogs coming from the yard.

Woof woof woof~

Judging from the barking, there are quite a few dogs, because the sound can be heard. There must be at least four or five dogs barking.

"Boss, I'm not lying to you, this guy really has a lot of hounds at home." Dahan said.

After parking the deer cart, Xu Qingfeng stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After a while, an old man opened the door and saw Xu Qingfeng with a confused look on his face.

"Uncle, I heard that you have a lot of hunting dogs at home and plan to sell them. We came here to take a look."

Xu Qingfeng smiled slightly and revealed his intention.
