Wang Mingyuan had already returned to the apiary, and Zhang Hui did not plan to stay longer, and then rode home on a motorcycle.

When he entered the house, he put his bag in the house, and then went to the bee farm to look at the beehives one by one, and found that after three days of not seeing, the bee farm had become lively.

Now, twenty-three colonies of bees have moved in.

Except for three groups that were slightly weaker, the others were quite vigorous.

Wang Mingyuan checked it and found that the two weaker groups were newly separated bee colonies, or the new queen bees who had just completed their wedding flights, not the kind of small bee colonies led by the old queen bees who were very weak in their own pheromones and were about to be eliminated.

Usually when it comes to the bee season, the bee colony will create a plurality of kings, cultivate several queen bees, and generally divide the first group of bees, the queen bee is the old queen bee of the original bee colony, and take away half or even more of the bees of the bee colony, so the first group of bees tends to be stronger, and as the number of bees decreases, the amount of bees taken away by the new queen bee will be less and less, which also leads to the emergence of bowl bees and even egg colonies.

But in general, as long as this naturally occurring queen bee completes the wedding flight, returns to the hive safely, and begins to lay eggs, the colony will develop very rapidly.

Of course, it is not a good thing that the bee colony is too weak, after all, the nesting and collecting ability is the biggest weakness, and the life span of the worker bees will be greatly shortened under the high-intensity work, and it is easy to have the situation that the old bees die and the new bees do not come out.

Therefore, another meaning of beekeeping is to avoid greed.

Many people keep bees, feel that the more bee colonies they raise, the more cattle they are, and they like to use strong groups to breed queen bees.

You must know that the bee colony is too weak and it is difficult to grow, which is one of them, and the second is that the weak bee colony has too poor collection ability and is difficult to harvest; Third, the bee colony is too weak, and the ability to regulate the internal temperature and water vapor and resist the infestation of natural enemies is too poor, and it is easy to get sick and be killed by natural enemies. In the end, the gains outweigh the losses.

The stronger the colony, the healthier, the easier it is to keep and the bigger the harvest.

Of course, this is not to say that the old queen bee of the middle bee is not as good as the new queen bee, this kind of naturally born, after the selection of the queen bee, usually can survive for three or four years, often the second year, is the real peak of egg production.

After checking the condition of the bee colony, when Wang Mingyuan walked back, he saw Chen Youqing in a hurry.

"Brother Chen, what's wrong?" Wang Mingyuan greeted him and asked.

"I'm here to tell you, tomorrow the truck pulling concrete from the mixing plant is going to come in, and it will go out from the inside, and the car will not be able to enter and exit in a short time, if you have anything to need, prepare it in advance, so as not to get inconvenient when you travel."

Chen Youqing came to remind him that the way into Zhangjiaao was just that.

"I'm not good here, anyway, I just need to buy some food and drink, the key is that I am afraid of affecting the villagers of Chenjiagou, and I have to ask you to help talk about the inconvenience caused to them by building roads, so that they can understand." Wang Mingyuan said apologetically.

There are a lot of land and paddy fields on both sides of the road, and it has entered the cultivation season, and if the matter is not handled well, it will delay the agricultural work and may lead to a lot of trouble.

"You don't have to worry about that, the greeting has already been called. Over the years, no one has repaired this road, and even the ox cart can't come in, let alone tractors, tricycles, planting some crops out, and handling has become a big problem. You don't know, in some places where you need to play Baokan and need to use land, you don't have much to occupy, and people don't have to spend money to let it out without saying a word. ”

Chen Youqing smiled: "These things, wrap them up on me, I will definitely help you do them properly." ”

"Then thank you, Brother Chen!"

For this, Wang Mingyuan is still very grateful.

After Chen Youqing left, Wang Mingyuan went to the river to wash his face, and then it was inconvenient to go in and out, so he had to make some preparations.

By the way, there are also which grasshoppers brought from Zhangjiaao in the 80s, you have to take advantage of the fact that you can still get in and out now, and hurry up, otherwise, I don't know how many days you have to place them here.

He hurriedly tied the dried locusts to a motorcycle and delivered them to the town's pharmacy.

When the boss saw Wang Mingyuan, he immediately laughed: "I didn't see you here two days ago, and my friends began to ask if you didn't get it." ”

"I'm going home to deal with some small things, it's delayed!"

Wang Mingyuan said as he sent the things to the door of the pharmacy.

This time, the pharmacy owner opened the bag and took a casual look, weighed the things, and then called his friend to transfer the money.

"Don't you want your friends to take a good look at it?" Wang Mingyuan was a little surprised.

"It's not the first time, the first two times I sent them were all good goods, and my friends said that you are very real, so you don't need to bother." The pharmacy owner laughed, "He can count on you to get him more dried locusts." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Mingyuan heard a text message prompt for bank transfer.

Two hundred and thirty-eight pounds of dried locusts, another 214,020 arrived.

After the baptism of Cordyceps being sold for a lot of money, Wang Mingyuan's heart calmed down a lot this time.

"Speaking of what the locusts did, the ones that will be sent in a few days will be the last batch."

In 80 years, the matter of collecting locusts in Zhangjiaao was spread out, and the matter was not small, if it was targeted by someone with a heart, and made a fuss about it, I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble, if you want to continue, you have to deal with the matter clearly, Wang Mingyuan decided to bring back the grasshoppers that have not been dried in the next return to 2023 and dispose of them, and temporarily slow down.

"What's wrong?" The owner of the pharmacy was slightly stunned and asked puzzledly: "How can the profitable business be stopped?" ”

"This locust is not inexhaustible in the mountains, the big ones are finished, and the small ones should always grow longer, and after this period of fishing, the big locusts are getting fewer and fewer, and the hired workers have less harvest, so they are not very willing to do it. In a few months, if you can continue fishing, I'll come back to you then! Wang Mingyuan lied.

said this, but in fact, he was still a little reluctant in his heart.

It's a pity that the matter of making money has been put on hold, no one will be disgusted with more money.

The pharmacy owner thought for a moment and nodded, "That's just as well." Okay, I'll talk to my friends about it. ”

After Wang Mingyuan toasted the owner of the pharmacy with a cigarette, he rode his motorcycle to the farmers' market, bought a bunch of ingredients, and rode back to Zhangjiaao Bee Farm.

After the live broadcast ends tomorrow, if nothing else, the next thing is to call the bee colony and the beehive to deal with it.

I hope that the weather will be sunny for a few days, so that the beehives in the apiary can live in Xiaomi, and these elves will have enough time to collect honey.

During this time, the weather is prone to rainy conditions, often for several days, which is a trouble.

If the rainy weather lasts too long, the bee colony is prone to food shortages.

After dinner, moved a stool and sat at the door, Wang Mingyuan closed his eyes and sensed the virtual small screen in his mind:

2023.4.25→1980.4.25

125:46:38

38435

The last time I went to 1980 was on April 15th, and after staying for ten days, I returned to April 15th, 2023 on the 25th, and I had more than five days to go, and I was going to 1980 again.

With Zhang Hui's assistance, the growth of fans is quite good, and they are almost 40,000, but the growth of fans has not changed on the virtual small screen. This also made him a little puzzled by the opening rules of the map, however, he didn't want to bother to think about it, and when it was time to open it, it would naturally be opened, and it would be good to work hard to increase the fan value.

What's more, there are still a few places that have been opened now that I haven't been there, so there's no hurry.
