After putting the fruit away, Zhang Taiping began to assemble the beehive by himself. At this time, it was the time for the old man to give Fan Ming acupuncture, and he didn't have to worry about how to take the bees out of the space.

A large swarm of bees was taken out of the space, and in each hive was a normal queen bee that looked just slightly larger than the wild one. After the queen bee was settled, a large group of bees flying in the air also followed into the beehives, and after getting a little familiar with the environment, it was seen that they were flapping their wings and going out to collect honey. Often industrious people are compared to bees, and it is not unreasonable that the bees can't stop the whole thing, all for the sake of collecting honey, and they are also busy all their lives.

Now that the bees have begun to come out to collect honey, this temperature is also suitable for the growth of butterflies. After Zhang Taiping released the bees, he also released some of the butterflies, and the sky was suddenly full of colorful butterflies.

They suddenly came to an unfamiliar environment, and did not fly away immediately, but flew around Zhang Taiping's body, and if others saw it, they would be surprised. Zhang Taiping hurriedly ran towards the orchard, and the butterfly Ye moved. When they came to the flowers in the orchard, these butterflies began to slowly leave Zhang Taiping's body and fly into the flowers of the fruit trees.

Wild bees have their own survival ability and do not need to be cared for and raised like bees, but under normal circumstances, wild bees do not produce as much honey as bees. The wild bees that Zhang Taiping took out of the space did not have such a problem, they were both wild and industrious, and they were 1.5 times the size of ordinary wild bees and more than three times that of bees, and they collected more rice each time. The main thing is that you don't need Zhang Taiping to manage it, just cut the honey every two days.

When I came back from the orchard, I found some straw and tied the vines that had fallen loose on the cement shelves. Then I used diluted spring water to water the flowers planted in the garden.

Tidy up the backyard and idle again. Fan Ming is being treated, and Zhang Taiping can't go over to disturb him; Yaya is following the little girl every day to write with a small notebook; His wife, Cai Yazhi, is cooking lunch in the kitchen. Zhang Taiping saw that everyone had their own affairs, so he was idle, so he took a rattan chair and sat under the eaves to observe the swallows.

There are now four swallow nests under the eaves, and at least eight of them live in them. At this time, a swallow came back from hunting outside, and after it entered one of the nests, the swallow that had been nesting inside flew out, and it was a shift change, and there was always a swallow guarding the nest.

Zhang Taiping's heart moved, stood up and put his hand into the nest. Seeing this, the swallow that stayed in the nest immediately exploded its feathers and screamed, and the other swallow, which had not yet flown far, turned its head and shot quickly like an arrow. The two swallows pecked at Zhang Taiping's hand that he was about to reach into the nest at the same time. It's just that this little force is like tickling for Zhang Taiping now, and it doesn't have any effect at all, let alone his determination to reach in.

Sure enough, there were a few warm eggs lying under the swallow's body in the nest. I don't know when the eggs have been laid and they have begun to hatch. If a few of these four litters hatch, then there will not be enough space under the eaves to live.

Zhang Taiping smiled and withdrew his hand, and the two men inside me stared at Zhang Taiping vigilantly in case he made any more offensive moves. There were two nests next to it, and the head of a swallow also sticked out of them, looking at Zhang Taiping like a thief.

Standing in the middle of the courtyard and whistling into the sky, an eagle whistle responded, and Xiao Jin's figure appeared in the sky, and after locking Zhang Taiping's figure, he swooped down and landed on Zhang Taiping's outstretched arm. In general, eagle keepers put mats on their arms or shoulders where the eagles are stationed. Even if the eagle has no intention of hurting people, just grasping that claw is not something that ordinary people can bear. It's just that Zhang Taiping doesn't need it at all.

A few people who were still vigilantly watching Zhang Taiping just now saw Xiao Jin's figure, and the feathers on their bodies exploded again, guarding the edge of the nest as if they were facing a great enemy, and the sounds of horror were one after another. A few more flew back from outside to guard the edge of the nest, a posture of defending together.

Xiao Jin stood on Zhang Taiping's arm, just opened his eyes and glanced at it, and then ignored it.

Zhang Taiping didn't call Xiao Jin down to scare the people into revenge for the pecks just now, he wasn't so boring yet. Instead, from the fact that the child hatched the eggs, he thought that Xiao Jin was also a bird, and he was a man, and he didn't know how to solve the problem of this offspring.

Only when looking at Zhang Taiping, Xiaojin's eyes will not be as sharp as a knife, and the softened expression gives Zhang Taiping a feeling that a three- or four-year-old child looks at his relatives.

Zhang Taiping reached out and stroked the only soft feather on his head, and he squinted his eyes in enjoyment and tilted his head against Zhang Taiping's hand.

"Dashuai, someone is looking for you." At this moment, the voice of the village chief came from the side of the courtyard.

Xiao Jin's eyes suddenly opened, a little annoyed by the disturbance of the people who came, and his sharp eyes fell on the village chief and an old man in his sixties with glasses behind him. The lion lying next to Zhang Taiping's lap also stood up and looked at the stranger behind the village chief with vigilance.

Being stared at by an eagle and a dog, the old man felt a lot of pressure, and did not follow the village chief into the courtyard, but stood at the entrance of the courtyard and watched.

Zhang Taiping raised his arms upwards and let Xiao Jin fly into the sky. After circling a few laps in the sky, Kim turned around and flew behind the mountain to the south.

Patting the lion on the shoulder, Zhang Taiping greeted him, looked at the strange old man, and asked the village chief, "Is this old gentleman looking for me?" ”

"Yes, this gentleman is looking for you. It's a teacher at the university. ”

Zhang Taiping was about to ask, and the old man had already introduced himself: "I am a teacher from Northwest A&F University, named Shao Fengguo. I came here after seeing a photo of Butterfly Valley uploaded on the Internet. May I ask if you are the 'little village girl' on the Internet? Teacher Shao was a little uncertain when he asked this, and it was also a little weird, Zhang Taiping standing in front of him was too tall, how could he be associated with the screen name "Xiaocun Gu", but because the Internet is a virtual thing, these screen names are just a mark and cannot judge people's surnames, so there is this question.

"Aunt Xiaomura?" Zhang Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, isn't this Fan Ming's screen name. This Mr. Shao also said that he came because of the photos of "Butterfly Valley", Zhang Taiping did not have a camera at that time, and the photos about Butterfly Valley were uploaded to the Internet by Fan Mingzhao. The old gentleman may have come to inquire about Butterfly Valley. waved his hand and said, "I'm not a 'little village girl', it's a girl, it's a little inconvenient to come out now, why don't you wait here for a while?" ”

"Don't rush, just wait a while." This is not a polite remark, and today is really not in a hurry.

This old gentleman is an old professor at the University of Agricultural Sciences, and has been engaged in the research of insects. Yesterday, I accidentally saw a photo of a butterfly valley uploaded by a netizen named "Xiaocun Gu" on the Internet, and my address was attached below. He was doing a research on butterflies, and he saw many rare or even unseen butterflies in a series of photos, and he couldn't help but come and see them. If it's true, it's too valuable for your own research, and even if it's not true, it's a day or two off for yourself.

Zhang Taiping invited the old gentleman and the village chief into the house, and served tea after sitting down.

Mr. Shao took a sip of tea, looked at the two big dogs on the ground and asked, "You raised that eagle just now?" ”

Zhang Taiping nodded and said, "It is true that I raised it." ”

"And these two big dogs are yours too?"

"Hmm."

The old gentleman gave Zhang Taiping a thumbs up and said, "It's amazing, I always thought that people who could tame eagles were amazing people." That big eagle weighs sixty or seventy pounds, right? ”

Zhang Taiping didn't know much about his method of dividing by weight, and said: "It's about the same, the wings are more than two meters wide, and they are sixty or seventy centimeters tall when they stand on the ground." ”

"That's it, generally speaking, when the eagle grows up, it is about the same height and weight."

"There are not only eagles in the handsome house, but also two strange birds called parrots, yes, parrots. There is also a Fukushou turtle the size of a millstone in the pond. The village chief was on the side, highly recommending the highlights of Zhang Taiping's house.

"Is there really a Fushou turtle with a big grinding plate?" Mr. Shao asked in surprise, he had often seen parrots, and there was no big deal, but the millstone-sized Fushou turtle that the village chief said had never seen before.

"Yes, why not, it's in the pond outside, and you can see it when you go out." With that, he stood up and walked out.

Mr. Shao was also very interested and stood up. Zhang Taiping naturally couldn't sit still.

"Oh, I haven't asked the name of the little brother yet, is it called Dashuai?" When Mr. Shao went out, he remembered that he hadn't asked Zhang Taiping's name yet.

"My surname is Zhang, my name is Taiping, and Dashuai is a nickname that people call Shunkou." Zhang Taiping smiled and said.

Mr. Shao also smiled and said: "The name of Dashuai is good, it is imposing and smooth, so I will follow the village chief's name." ”

"Hehe, it doesn't matter what you want to call it. I don't know what to call the old man. ”

Mr. Shao laughed heartily and said, "You can call me Mr. Shao, if you don't feel good, you can simply call me 'Old Shao'." ”

"I'll call you Teacher Shao."

"It's up to you."
