"Three bees?" The old man smiled and said, "They are also a very good choice!" Place them in the pasture and they'll automatically collect nectar for you to bring back. ”

Naoki nodded, and at the same time there were some doubts in his heart.

Because the Pokémon of the Three Bees belongs to the social Pokémon.

They are a group of three from birth and swear allegiance to Queen Bee.

It will also please the queen bee with the other three bees for the sake of their own group, and they are working hard to carry sweet nectar for the queen bee from morning to night.

But after Naoki's observation, it seems that the three bees in Happy Ranch don't need a queen bee.

Thinking of this, Naoki asked, "If I buy three bees, do I need to buy another queen bee?" ”

The old man immediately understood what he meant, he shook his head with a smile and said, "Of course not, the three bees sold to the guests are different from the wild ones, they are all specially artificially cultivated, and even if you don't need the queen bee, you can survive alone." ”

"In other words, to them, you who raise them and take care of them are the [queen bees] of the three bees."

Naoki: "......"

It sounded strange, but he understood.

The old man continued: "The three bees live in the hive, in groups of three, and if there is a large field of flowers nearby, they produce honey very quickly, and they can harvest it once a day. ”

"But vice versa, if the number of nearby flowers is scarce, the rate at which they produce honey will also drop dramatically."

Naoki nodded thoughtfully, "Then I'll buy a set first." ”

He originally wanted to save money to expand his home and improve his quality of life.

But now it seems that it will take some time to save up to 2 million, so it is better to build the infrastructure in the ranch first.

Like the beehive where the three bees live, the Pokémon hut used to raise the big milk tank, the sheepfold where the pigtailed sheep live, and so on.

"Okay." The old man smiled: "Then I'll go back and ask Xiaomei to send you the three bees and these feeds." ”

Xiaomei is the granddaughter of the old man, the girl who delivered chickens to Naoki before, and she works as a delivery boy here.

Naoki nodded, paid the money, and left the place, returning to the ranch.

I took medicine with hot water, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, Xiaomei, a round-faced girl with freckles on her face, came to the ranch.

She politely greeted Naoki, "Hello, Mr. Naoki!" ”

Naoki nodded at her, "Hello, Xiaomei." ”

He stepped forward to help Xiaomei put the chicken feed into the silo, and then set his eyes on the beehive on the tricycle.

The hive resembles a square triangular roof with four pillars underneath and a square opening in front of it.

Looking in along the entrance of the cave, Naoki saw three three bees stacked on top of each other, timidly looking at the scene outside.

Not to mention, the three bees are quite cute, like a lump of honey with wings.

And all three seem to be males, as Naoki doesn't see red spots on their faces underneath them.

This is exactly what the male triple bee symbolizes.

Unlike females, male triple bees do not evolve and can never evolve into queen bees.

In colonies, they usually play the role of worker bees.

At this time, Xiaomei on the side asked, "Mr. Naoki, where is this beehive going to be placed?" ”

Naoki pointed to the green grass next to the wooden house, "Just put it there!" ”

It's close to the hut and faces the flower fields, so it's easier to collect honey or something.

Mei nodded, stepped forward to set up the hive, and then said goodbye to Naoki and turned to leave.

Naoki stepped forward and squatted down to look at the three bees, and greeted them: "Hey, three bees, my name is Naoki, and I am the rancher of this ranch, please take care of me from now on!" ”

The three bees felt the kindness released by this human and were not so afraid.

Seeing this, Naoki fetches tree fruits and snacks from the house and wants to feed them to strengthen the relationship.

But the three bees just came up and sniffed it, and then retreated, and did not eat.

"Huh? Don't you eat tree fruits? Naoki was a little surprised, because in his opinion, the tree fruit was a food that every Pokémon could accept.

"I forgot to ask Xiaomei just now."

After a little thought, Naoki returns to the house, finds the "Ranch Encyclopedia" that Mayor Thomas left for him, and finally finds food for the three bees in the "Pokémon Raising Chapter".

"Three bees, very special Pokémon, most of the time they don't need to be artificially fed because they go out on their own to find pollen and nectar to eat."

"But if there is rainy weather and winter, the three bees generally do not choose to go out in the hive, and if the rainy weather is too long, the beekeeper can help them replenish their strength by feeding them syrup."

"But it's important to note that before winter comes, beekeepers have to leave some honey in the hives for the three bees, which they need to rely on to survive the flowerless time."

"Syrup?" Naoki secretly kept these materials in mind, and decided to buy some by the way when he went to the town tomorrow to learn how to make Bao Fen.

Today, because of a fever, he had no way to go to the dessert shop, so he had to postpone his plan until tomorrow.

At this time, the three bees began to leave the hive and took the initiative to contact the outside world.

At this time, the flower field has just been planted and has not yet grown, but there are other flowers in the pasture besides there.

It's spring, and there are a lot of wildflowers growing in the grass in the pasture, and many butterflies are attracted to it.

The three bees also patrolled the scent to find the wildflowers, floating above with their small transparent wings, gently collecting the pollen and nectar on them.

I ate some of my own, and then brought others back to the hive to store them to make honey.

The other two three bees did the same.

Seeing them start working as soon as they arrived at the ranch, Naoki couldn't help but think, "What a hard work!" ”

He's going to have to work hard, too.

Naoki thinks of the thief who broke into the chicken hut and makes a series of arrest plans in his mind, and then finds Ba Da Butterfly in the ranch.

"Ba Da Butterfly, can you use paralysis powder or hypnotic powder now?" Naoki asked.

"Babbling~" Ba Da Butterfly nodded happily, not only that, but it can also use a more powerful power grid!

"Very well, then I have a task for you now."

Naoki informs Ba Da Butterfly of all his plans, then goes to the chicken hut and makes a simple mechanism using the tools from the ranch.

As soon as the door of the chicken hut is pushed open, it will cause a noise, and Ba Da Butterfly will be able to find the target and use hypnotic powder on it.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

Next, it's a matter of waiting patiently for the fish to take the bait.
