Liu Junhao doesn't pay attention to the small amount of money dug for loaches, but it doesn't mean that others do the same. When Wang Shengli passed by the village, he mentioned the purchase of loaches at a high price, and many people immediately started busy with shovels. It's okay to be idle at home in the winter, whether it's to earn some pocket money or not. Anyway, there are a lot of dry ditches near Liujiagou.
Soon many tourists also joined in. Of course, they were just looking for fun and joining in the fun.
Liu Junhao originally thought that the mission was completed and he would have nothing to worry about. Who knew that just two days later, Xiaowazi and others came to the door carrying a snakeskin bag.
The snakeskin bag was bulging, and Zhang Qian thought they had gotten something rare. Curiously, he stepped forward and opened the bag, and he screamed.
"What scares you?" Liu Junhao went over and took a look, "Good guy, there are so many, where did you get them from?"
There was a bag full of hornet nests in the snakeskin bag. No wonder the wife was frightened.
"We spent two days looking for this in the mountains. How about" Maozi showed off proudly, and finally said: "Uncle Xiao Hao, give Boss Wang a call and tell him that the hornet's nest has been cast. Let him come. Take it."
"Wang Shengli collected the hornet's nest, why didn't I know?" Liu Junhao asked in confusion. This man didn't say anything when he came.
He took out his phone and called, asking about the acquisition of Mafengwo.
Unexpectedly, Wang Shengli was also very surprised when he heard about it. He even said that several children were disobedient and he would not accept it at all. The last time he came to the village, he saw a hornet's nest on a tree and casually mentioned that this thing was very valuable in the city, one or two hundred yuan a pound.
"How much is it? Are you sure the price is so high?" Liu Junhao asked. Although the Golden Jade Queen Bee Nest that I invested in last time was sold for thousands of dollars, it was sold as a handicraft. The same was true for the one that Liu Junqi sold last year, and it could not be counted.
As far as he knows, there are people in Mafengwo Town who collect it, but it only costs 40 yuan per pound, so it¡¯s really not worth taking the risk. If it can really sell for more than 100, Liu Junhao also has the idea of ????trying it.
Wait for him to ask about the specific situation. Wang Shengli became unsure: "I heard what others said. Ask someone knowledgeable."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Junhao shook his head at the expectant children: "Boss Wang won't accept this. I'll contact you again."
Then he dialed Huo Jun's phone number, and this time he finally had a definite answer. Huo Jun agreed to help go to the city's traditional Chinese medicine market to inquire, saying he would call back in the afternoon.
"Xiao Hao, I've asked about it. Hornet's nest costs three hundred yuan per kilogram. If you have more, they can come to buy it." Huo Jun called just after lunch.
"How much, are you sure?" Liu Junhao was surprised when he heard the price. It's a bit too expensive. The house that collects hornets' nests in town is making exponentially more money.
The hornet's nest on this mountain Liu Junhao couldn't imagine that if the hornet's nest in the nearby mountains was removed, ten thousand yuan would be appropriate. Moreover, the season is just right now, the weather is very cold, and the wasps are hiding in piles of firewood and cracks in the rocks, leaving the hornet nest undefended at all.
"Of course, Xiao Hao, I found this is a way to make a fortune." Huo Jun also looked very excited there. "I just read the news on the Internet. Food made from wasp pupae is very popular in Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Taiwan and other places. It is selling like crazy. Guangzhou alone consumes more than 5,000 kilograms of wasps a day. Now many farmers have already Start bee breeding.
How about you raise wasps too, I¡¯ll take care of it here, if you have the golden jade emperor bee pupae like last year. The price is definitely high. "
Huo Jun tried his best to persuade on the other end of the phone, describing a broad road.
"Hornets. How do you raise them? They sting!" Liu Junhao was also moved by this description. In his opinion. It seems really good to keep wasps. Since these things go out to look for food, you don¡¯t have to worry about them at all. If there is such a big profit, it can be developed into a side business.
"Chun Shang found a hornet's nest in the wild, brought the wasps and the nest together, then made a cage at home with a fine window screen, put them in it, and fed them some food at ordinary times." In order to make his words convincing, Huo Jun deliberately checked Pass relevant information.
"That's it, let's forget it." Upon hearing this, Liu Junhao gave up the idea completely. The reason is simple, this way of raising is too dangerous. As long as the window screen is accidentally torn or rotten, wasps will swarm.
???????????????????????? If you are really stung and poisoned, it is not something you can think of with a few hundred dollars. Especially the Golden Jade Queen Bee. If you are really stung by that thing, you will lose half your life.
In fact, it is easy to raise this thing. If it were not risky, it would be good to develop into a breeding industry.
But there is a lot of potential for picking the hornet's nest Liu Junhao was just thinking that the little boy and the others happened to come to the door. As soon as he finished speaking, several naughty children cheered.
Seeing that everyone is busy digging loaches to earn pocket money these days, Liu Junhao is also a little restless. When I told my wife, she was very supportive, mainly because Zhang Qian also knew that there were no wasps in the hornet's nest.
So, Liu Junhao led the monkeys and squirrels, carrying yellow-spotted skin, and marched toward the mountains and forests.
¡°These animals in our family are a little too smart. As soon as Liu Junhao voted for one, they understood After knowing what their owner needed, in less than five minutes, Diandian and Bai Tiao rushed back with a hornet's nest as big as a bowl. As for Wukong, it was even more outrageous. This little guy directly carried back a hive as big as a basketball. Probably because it was too heavy, this guy swayed when he walked.
Mouthless Liu Junhao saw the honeycomb it was carrying, and hurriedly squatted down and shouted: "Throw it away, Wukong, come here!"
"Zhizhi" the monkey didn't understand why his master reacted like this, but he still obediently threw the hornet's nest on the ground and ran over.
No wasps flew out? Liu Junhao breathed a sigh of relief. He slapped the monkey on the head and reprimanded him: "You are too courageous to throw yourself into such a big hornet's nest."
Wasps will leave their nests in winter and look for shelter from the wind, such as cracks in walls and haystacks, to spend the winter in groups. But this is the kind of small hornet's nest with a wide mouth, not the one in front of you.
This kind of large hornet's nest has a hard shell on the outside to protect it from rain and freezing. Therefore, wasps rarely leave their nests no matter how cold the weather is. In the coming spring, they will continue to expand along the old nest, which is one of the reasons why giant beehives frequently appear in many places.
But with the current weather, they rarely go out unless they are surprised.
Liu Junhao was very curious as to how Wukong managed to remove the hornet's nest without getting stung. Are there really no wasps in there?
After waiting for about five or six minutes, and seeing that no wasp flew out, he cautiously walked over and picked up the wasp's nest.
It turns out what a smart monkey.
Seeing a branch stuck on the hornet's nest, Liu Junhao couldn't help but praise it.
Anyone who often invests in hornet's nests knows that there are actually many types of hornet's nest shapes. Some are in the shape of strips, and the largest Liu Junhao has ever seen is forty or fifty centimeters long. There are also sunflower-shaped ones, which the two squirrels picked just now. This kind of wasp usually avoids the winter.
There are also top-type ones, just like the ones made by monkeys. The entire hive is tightly sealed, and most of the time there is only one exit for the wasps to enter and exit. Of course, larger ones will have two or three exits.
This guy Wukong used branches to directly block the exit of the wasp's nest. No wonder he didn't see the wasp just now.
Liu Junhao marveled at Wukong's intelligence. This guy was about to become a spirit.
But how to get out the wasps inside was a headache for Liu Junhao. You can't just sell the wasps directly to others, right? Although wasps are valuable, I have never heard of anyone collecting live wasps.
¡°Yes, when he saw the valley next to him, Liu Junhao had an idea.
He pulled out a small bundle of fine grass from the stone lock space, knitted it into a straw rope, and then tied one end of the straw rope to the handle of the hornet's nest.
After finishing the preparations, Liu Junhao climbed to the top of the mountain depression, pulled out the branches, and suddenly dropped the hornet's nest.
"Buzzing" was as expected. After being alerted, a large swarm of wasps flew around under the mountain depression, looking for enemies everywhere. Fortunately, the rope Liu Junhao weaved was long enough, so it didn't attract the wasp's attention.
After shaking back and forth more than a dozen times, Liu Junhao slowly dragged the rope horizontally, and then quickly pulled it up.
The whole process is thrilling, almost catching up with the 007 blockbuster. When the rope was pulled up, he saw that there was no wasp chasing him. Liu Junhao took a long breath and turned to look at the exit of the small hole.
Before he could react, a wasp flew out of the small hole and landed directly on his arm.
¡°
Liu Junhao immediately stood there stupidly, holding the hornet's nest in both hands and not daring to move.
But when he saw the color of the wasp's head from the corner of his eye, he felt relaxed again, reached out and pinched the wasp's arm, crushing it to death.
It¡¯s not that Liu Junhao is bold, but because this kind of wasp doesn¡¯t sting well, this is also common sense for people who want to bet on a hornet¡¯s nest.
In fact, there are two kinds of wasps in the wasp nest. The first type has a burnt yellow head and has a poisonous stinger, and the second type has a pale head and does not sting. When they were young, Liu Qiyong and his friends often caught white-faced wasps and played with them to show off their boldness, scaring other students into screaming.
As for why there are two kinds of wasps in one hive, Liu Junhao is not sure.
Once he accidentally saw relevant information on the Internet, he realized that emotional wasps, like bees, are also divided into male and female. worker bee, queen bees are all female, with stingers. There is no majestic wind, and naturally it will not sting. The white-faced wasp is the majestic peak.
After trampling the wasp to death, Liu Junhao shook uneasily a few times. There is really no more, only that one majestic peak is left in the hornet's nest.
Next, under his command, one man and three beasts swept across the mountains and fields.
Wukong and Squirrel's eyes are very sharp. They sweep all the way and rarely miss the hornet's nest. Of course, he also encountered a lot of troublesome gyro hornet's nests, so Liu Junhao simply told the monkey to give up. It's really not worth spending nearly half an hour on a hornet's nest. With this effort, I don¡¯t know how many hornet¡¯s nests have been thrown.
They climbed three mountains in succession. In less than two hours, the snakeskin bag was full.
Liu Junhao saw that it was still early, so he threw the snakeskin bag into the stone lock, and then continued to lead a few little guys to search. (To be continued)
