Royal jelly!
If it is an ordinary bee, royal jelly is the secretion of the pharyngeal glands of worker bees and is the exclusive food of the queen bee.
At the same time, it can also supply the larvae that will be cultivated into queen bees, so that their growth curve is different from that of ordinary bees, and they will eventually become queen bees.
Of course, these are ordinary bees, and spiritual bees with spiritual and demonic powers are two completely different creatures.
Yun He didn't expect to find royal jelly in the hive of the black-ringed wasp.
"if......."
Looking at the five-striped red-striped spirit bee that was hovering near the royal platform and seemed particularly excited today, Yun He's eyes suddenly changed.
...
Return to your residence.
Put away your outfit.
Yunhe placed tonight's harvest on the table one by one.
One black-ringed wasp queen corpse, nine common black-ringed wasp corpses, a complete hive, a little royal jelly, and six lifeless bee pupae.
Sit down at the table and look at the things on the table.
Especially the body of the black-ringed wasp queen and a little bit of royal jelly, Yun He fell into deep thought.
What is the real reason that restricts beekeepers from Fangshi from working for the Wang family?
It’s Fengyuan!
The Wang family has a firm control over the source of spiritual bees in Fang City and only sells larvae, young bees or mature spiritual bees.
The method of how to cultivate a spiritual bee queen is very secretive.
Even if some people or forces knew how to cultivate queen bees, they would not offend the Wang family for the sake of clever beekeepers like them.
But what if you could cultivate your own queen bee and produce your own bee seeds?
"I have tried raising a queen bee the same way I raise a queen bee, but it doesn't work."
In fact, less than a month after Yun He came to this world, he tried it but failed.
The Wang family does not restrict the export of spirit bee larvae. There is even a famous dish in restaurants in Fangshi that is cooked with spirit bee larvae.
This means that the Wang family is not worried about someone borrowing larvae to cultivate a queen bee. They must have used a more special method.
"So, in fact, I have no other choice, let alone any hesitation."
With this thought, Yun He loosened the restrictions on the five-striped red-striped spirit bees.
Buzz——
The next second.
The five-striped red-striped spirit bee lay on the body of the black-ringed wasp queen and started to eat.
"Even if I think too much, these things together should be enough to increase the strength of the red-striped spirit bee by several levels."
While muttering to himself, he placed a small bowl of royal jelly next to the five-striped and red-striped spirit bee.
In fact, other red-striped spiritual bees were also very interested in the body of the black-ringed wasp queen and the royal jelly, but their reaction was not as big as that of the five-striped red-striped spiritual bee.
On the one hand, it is because of Yunhe's control.
On the other hand, it was also because the five-striped red-striped spirit bee had unknowingly become the "head" of all the red-striped spirit bees in Yun He's hands.
The hive class has actually already taken shape.
While the five-striped red-striped spirit bees were eating, Yunhe turned his attention to the remaining nine ordinary black-ringed wasp corpses.
"Since the remaining 12 spirit bees are not enough to complete this month's mission, we might as well transform them all into red-striped spirit bees."
"As for the spiritual honey... the worst I can do is to wait until the next batch of red-striped spiritual honey is sold to make money, find someone to buy the spiritual honey, or directly give the manager the spiritual stone. With the spiritual stone, I'm afraid that the problem won't be solved. ?"
Thinking of this, Yun He immediately ordered the remaining 12 ordinary spiritual bees to devour six of the black-ringed wasps.
As for the remaining three, he selected the three most powerful looking ones from among the red-striped spirit bees and ate them.
If the number of red-striped spirit bees cannot be increased, then the individual strength of the red-striped spirit bees should be strengthened.
"The condition for the success of the 'Insect Fighting Formation' is that at least 50 red-striped spirit bees are required. In addition to the quantity requirements, the Dacheng Formation also requires a 'formation general' guarding the formation and several 'auxiliary generals' in order to complete it. Maximize the power of the formation.”
Yunhe finally decided to use the remaining hives and bee pupae to make wine!
This little bee pupa alone is not enough to stir-fry a dish, so why not soak it in wine and use it as a flavoring agent in your spare time?
For a while.
Apart from the flickering lights, the only thing left in Yun He's room was the sound of people gnawing.
...
Time flies by, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
River way.
Yun He was wearing coarse linen clothes and carrying a weather-beaten bamboo box as he walked out of the Ling Nong Management Office in Fang City.
As soon as he stepped out the door, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.
"King Blood Leech!"
I cursed inwardly.
He casually put two low-grade spiritual stones into his pocket.
Three months is neither short nor long.
Because of the shortage of spiritual bees.
For two months in a row, Yunhe had to use spiritual stones instead of spiritual honey to pay taxes, and also gave fifty spiritual crystals to maintain relationships.
Only "reluctantly" did Wang Guanshi not pursue the problem of insufficient spiritual honey production.
It was not until this month that he finally replenished Lingfeng one after another and successfully completed his share of Lingfeng's agricultural tax.
Unexpectedly, Manager Wang was taken into custody by him.
Even if he didn't have to deal with it this time, he actually felt that receiving ten spiritual crystals was not enough, so he was picky about his spiritual honey.
As a last resort, Yun He had to replenish ten more spiritual crystals before he finally stopped.
"There are still five years of contract left."
Yunhe was counting the time in his mind as he walked on Fangshi Road.
The Wang family provides bee planting land, bee seeds, and bee control techniques, and the beekeepers have a way to earn spiritual stones. Naturally, there is a contract between the two parties.
Although it is just an ordinary contract, as the Wang family is a local snake-like family, no one dares to treat this contract as nothing.
Of course, the contract can also be ended early, as long as the spiritual beekeepers are willing to hand over a large amount of spiritual stones.
A five-year contract would cost you ten low-grade spiritual stones at least.
"That's all. Anyway, releasing the red-striped spiritual bees is a release, and releasing the spiritual bees is also a release. Just treat it as making extra money."
Yunhe now earns the majority of the spiritual stones, and has changed from spiritual honey to red-striped spiritual honey.
But bee releasing requires bee releasing land.
Moreover, taking out a large amount of spiritual stones at once not only hurts his body, but also easily attracts some unnecessary attention.
Having the cover of being a smart beekeeper can save you a lot of trouble.
"Fortunately, the weather is getting warmer, and the city's requirements for smart beekeepers are not so high."
Once spring passes, the production of Lingmi will decrease.
...
Ignoring the hustle and bustle of Fangshi streets, Yunhe walked straight into a shop.
"Brother Yun, here comes the bee again."
Seeing Yun He coming in, Lao He, who was one of the shop stewards, asked with a kind smile.
"Yes, Lao He, I only need 10 this time."
With that said, Yunhe put a small cloth bag on the counter.
Lao He did not check the number of spiritual crystals in the bag, but skillfully removed the beehive from the shelf, took out ten spiritual bees and put them into a cage.
"Brother Yun."
Seeing Yun He holding the cage and preparing to leave, Lao He stopped him after hesitating for a moment.
"Huh?" Yun He stopped and turned back in confusion, "Old He, is there anything else?"
Lao He smiled, rubbed his calloused hands, hesitated for a moment, and said with some seriousness:
"Brother Yun, if it really doesn't work, I, Mr. He, will help you build a bridge and pull the strings, and explain the matter clearly to fellow Taoist Wei."
Yun He was startled when he heard this.
"You see that you are getting bees every month. It must be because of the black-ringed wasps, right? There is no end to this. Why don't you explain the matter clearly to Fellow Daoist Wei and reduce big things to trivial matters?"
"Don't worry, I am, among other things, a bit thin among smart beekeepers."
Seeing Lao He's sincere expression, Yun He pursed his lips.
In my memory, the original owner's family seems to have some relationship with this old He.
But later, the original owner's parents died, and Lao He's daughter married into the Wang family, so the relationship faded.
In recent years, every time he visited the spiritual bees, Lao He basically sold him the spiritual bees in the best condition from the beehives.
Yun He actually saw all of this.
So under Lao He's gaze with some hope, Yun He nodded and said softly:
"good."
Lao He was slightly happy.
"I'll go as soon as I get off work."
Yun He waved his hand.
"Old He is gone."
Get out of the shop.
Thinking about Lao He's words, Yun He couldn't help but chuckle.
It would be best to have one less trouble.
But Yunhe estimates... Lao Hetou will most likely make his trip in vain.
Because he had already visited once before to try to resolve the conflict.
However, he couldn't even get in the other party's door.
...
"Brother, I'm here. I want us to sit down and have a chat with that Yun He. He is willing to apologize and give us an apology gift."
Fangshi, Wei Qingfei's residence.
In a side hall, Wei Qingfei looked calm as he listened to the briefing from a member of the "Bee Exterminator Team" in front of him.
He didn't speak, just played with the cup in his hand.
"Brother, although this old man is not very good, his daughter... is the concubine of the young master of the Wang family."
Zhou Shouxin, who was sitting aside, reminded him.
Wei Qingfei nodded noncommittally, drank all the tea in the cup, and then said:
"Just tell Lao Hetou that something went wrong in Wei's practice and he is currently in seclusion for recuperation. When he recovers, he will come to visit in person."
"yes!"
After his men responded, they turned around and trotted out.
"Brother..."
Zhou Shouxin obviously had a higher status in the "Bee Killing Team" and showed doubts.
Wei Qingfei glanced sideways at him.
He casually threw a ledger into this person's hands.
After Zhou Shouxin briefly turned through a few pages with doubts, his expression slowly became serious.
"this......"
It is clearly recorded in the account books that several smart beekeepers failed to turn in their "public funds" on time!
Wei Qingfei slowly stood up.
"Some people see that Yun He's life is getting better and better, and the black ring's disaster is a little less, and his mind becomes active."
In fact, Yun He had a "miserable" life in the first two months, and it had a good deterrent effect.
Unexpectedly, in the third month, Yun He's life became more comfortable again, which had the opposite effect.
"Then big brother, it's better this time..."
Zhou Shouxin looked fierce and stretched out his hand to touch his neck.
"Public funds" are not only related to Wei Qingfei, but also related to the income of these people.
They won't give in when their interests are in front of them.
"You want to kill him in Fangshi in front of others?" Wei Qingfei asked with a smile.
How can you serve as a warning to other people if you don't do it in front of others?
But in front of others, what do you think of the rules of the city?
"Forehead....."
Zhou Shouxin's expression froze.
"Tomorrow, capture a few black-ringed wasps. Do you know what to do next?"
Zhou Shouxin's eyes suddenly lit up.
"clear!"
Since he is living a comfortable life, let him go back to being miserable.
The worse Yun He's life is, the greater the deterrent effect will be.
It also makes smart beekeepers understand that they need bee extermination teams to solve the problem of black-ringed wasps.
Yun He can die, but he can't die quietly now.
In Wei Qingfei's imagination.
It would be better for Yun He to suffer for another three to four months or more, until all smart beekeepers completely regard "public expenses" as the norm and get used to it. A pen apology.
Finally, let him die quietly.
...
at the same time.
After returning to his residence, Yun He opened the cage, and all ten spirit bees flew out.
Buzz buzz——
Immediately, more spiritual bees slowly flew out from around the house and corners.
He actually kept all the spiritual bees at home!
Immediately afterwards, what flew out of the beehive were red-striped bees in high spirits!
At a glance, there are at least forty or fifty of them!
Buzz——
One of them is different from all the red-striped spirit bees.
The body is smaller, but the aura is completely unmatched by the red-striped spirit bee.
Special spiritual bees surrounded Yun He.
If you look carefully, you can see that the belly of this spirit bee is actually completely red.
More importantly, its aura is comparable to that of an early first-order monster!
Red striped spirit bee queen bee!
After three months of cultivation, Yunhe actually cultivated a red-striped queen bee!
After all the red-striped bees flew out, Yun He let out a breath and put down the bamboo box.
He lifted up his clothes and took a look, his eyes twitching slightly.
"I've almost developed eight-pack abs."
There was no way, he couldn't hide all fifty red-striped spiritual bees on his body.
Carrying it back and forth every day is very heavy.
"I have to buy a 'spiritual insect bag'. It will be too inconvenient if we continue like this."
Open the hidden compartment of the bed board.
I saw several tightly sealed jars of red-striped spiritual honey inside!
After three months, I have saved a lot.
Buzz buzz——
The red-striped queen bee landed on his shoulder and gently stretched its wings twice.
Yun He glanced at it and smiled.
"Now, if I face that monk named Shi again, I should be able to kill him head-on, right? If I face Wei Qingfei..."
