This place full of yellow flowers is actually a field of wild rape flowers. It's no wonder that bees attract bees, and the favorite of bees in previous lives is rape flowers, because rape flowers have a very high pollen content, which is a very important source for bees to produce honey.

And that's not the only thing that makes Shelley happy, because the rape flower is more than just a bee breeder.

Its seeds also have a very high oil content, this oil is not only nutritious, but also has a wide range of derivative uses, can be used to make margarine, artificial protein. If the technology is sufficient, it can also be used in various chemical manufacturing.

Its stems and leaves can be used both as food and as medicine. It can be said that the whole body is full of treasures. As a flower species with simple breeding, high survival rate, low cost and very high return, rape flower is undoubtedly a very powerful cash crop.

So Shelley took a few seeds of rape flowers on the spot, and said to Nika on the side: "This is a plant called rape flowers, and they are a very valuable variety, not only for feeding bees, but also for food. Nika, these seeds are handed over to you, and when you go back, you can give birth to a flower field of the same size as here, can you do it? ”

Nika took the seed, carefully wrapped it in leaves, put it in her small bag, and said confidently, "Don't worry, give me a week, and I can do it." ”

Shelley nodded, motioning for Momo to take them to their next target.

"Huh? Your Royal Highness Princess, aren't the bees caught? ”

"It's not that simple to catch bees, and we still need a lot of preparation, so we just need to determine the location this time, and when we go back to Nika and get the flower field ready, we will pick another day to come."

With that, Shelley asked him to lead the way to his next target. This second target is in a shallow area, which is actually a field of wild rice. Having rice means that you can eat rice, which should be a very happy thing.

But when Shelley saw the rice, his brow furrowed. Unlike the rape flowers, these otherworldly rice plants are not growing very well. Looking around, the tallest one was only up to her knees.

You must know that in the previous life, the most ordinary rice could also be about one meter tall after maturity, and as for the hybrid rice of Lord Shennong Daozu, it could grow to be taller than a human at the most.

Speaking of the most important yield, Shelley randomly checked the ears of rice on several rice, and there were only a few ears on each one, and after opening them, the rice inside was also very thin. At this level, it is thanks to God that an acre of land can have a yield of 100 catties. It's no wonder that people in this world can't find this kind of crop that can be used as food.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, am I looking for something wrong?" Seeing that Shelley had been frowning, Momo asked with some concern.

Shelley touched his little head: "No, you're looking for the right one." It's just that its varieties are relatively backward. Not your problem. ”

"Princess, don't worry, I'll look for you again, and promise to find a good one."

"Okay, this is fine, I guess no matter how much I look for it, I can only find it like this."

The reason for saying this is that she also looked at the soil where they grew and the environment around them, and found that the environment was okay. In this way, it is not that the rice is not growing badly, but that the current genes of this rice determine that they can only grow to this extent. In this way, genetic improvement is the way to go.

Thinking of this, Shelley pulled Nika to the side and kissed her, making her confused.

"The seeds of this thing are more important than just now, you can't just do it, I'll be with you when I go back, don't touch them until then, understand?"

"Understood, princess."

As long as Nika is there, no matter how bad the genes are, it is not a problem, and this kind of thing can be done in minutes. And even if the improved performance is still not good, she can still go the way of hybrid rice, and she can not worry about the yield.

After harvesting the rice seeds, the next step is to find the third target. The third target was a little farther away, almost near the very edge of the Momo range. One kilometer is not long, but after all, there are no roads here, and it is still very difficult to walk.

Unlike these three superpowers, Shelley's body has been pampered for twenty years, weaker than herself in her previous life, and after walking for almost half a kilometer, she is already tired.

But even so, she was very happy along the way, because she found a lot of good things, such as peanuts that can be squeezed for oil like rape flowers, and some edible vegetables and fruits.

Although most of them are genetically backward varieties like the rice just now, this one is no longer in the way. Shelley took all the seeds as ordered. By the end of the trip, Nika's satchel was almost full.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, let me carry you."

Seeing that Shelley was tired and sweaty, Owen half-squatted in front of her and said with a worried expression. Nika and Momo, who were on the side, also persuaded her not to go on her own.

To be honest, she wanted to persevere, but if she consumed too much physical strength, it would drag them down, so she had no choice but to respond. Shelley, who was carried up again, let go a little more than last time, but still blushing, after all, she was a girl, and she had a skin-to-skin relationship with such a masculine man, and her heart must be throbbing.

Fortunately, it was not very far from the target point, and after Shelley was picked up by Owen, the three of them immediately let go of their speed. At this time, Shelley discovered that even the young Momo could move very agilely in this complex forest. A distance of a few hundred meters takes less than two or three minutes.

Although Mo Mo had already told her that it was silkworms before she arrived, she was still shocked when she saw these silkworms. If it weren't for the fact that it looked exactly the same, Shelley really wanted to complain that this thing was a silkworm?

This is a mulberry forest, so it's not surprising that there is a silkworm moth Shelley here, but the strange thing is how the silkworms here can grow so big? Each silkworm baby has the length of a palm, which is so amazing that she finds a cocoon on the ground that has been pupated, and it is the size of a duck's egg.

After opening it, Shelley found that although it was large, the silk drawn from it was still very fine, and the silk quality was also very good. The chrysalis in this cocoon should have been out of it for a while, but the quality of the cocoon silk is still very good. To sum up, the silkworm seeds of this world are better than the previous one.

"Maybe that's not the case, unlike plants, the evolutionary history of animals, especially insects, has evolved from large to small, and so are the bees just now, which are larger than the previous world. It is reasonable to judge in this way. While analyzing, Shelley took down a silkworm baby and observed, "I just don't know if their growth cycle has changed from their previous life." ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I have found that there are a lot of moth corpses here."

Momo's voice came from not far away, and as soon as he heard that there was a moth's corpse, Shelley's eyes lit up and he hurried over.

The mission of the silkworm moth is very simple: to reproduce. When they scatter their eggs, they use a lot of physical energy. In general, there are no more nutrients to sustain it after the end of spawning. Therefore, after the silkworm moth has scattered its eggs, it has completed the task of the creature itself, and it will naturally die.

Momo found the carcasses of moths, indicating that there must have been eggs laid by them nearby. Unlike bees, there is not so much attention to collecting silkworm eggs, and you can pick them up directly when you encounter them. A little attention to the environment and food can keep them alive. Now that I have encountered it, there is no reason not to take it away.
