    Not to mention, it¡¯s cool by the lotus pond.

    The shadows of two large toon trees by the ditch happened to be blocking the road. The two people put their stall under the shade of the trees, then set up their horses and horses to fight.

    However, the chess game played today was very frightening, and from time to time there were buzzing bees flying around on their heads.  It had only been raining for less than ten minutes, and three waves of bees had already flown by.

    "It's better to get off in the courtyard." Professor Zhao sighed helplessly.

    If you can¡¯t afford to offend, you can¡¯t afford to hide. Liu Junhao also nodded in agreement.  Although it was cool beside the lotus pond, there were too many bees. At least three or four fell on one lotus.

    But they didn¡¯t worry when they got to the yard. The wasps were still buzzing over their heads, and one of them, who was not afraid of death, even landed on the chessboard.

    "There are more and more bees. There is no place to play chess. Come to my yard." Professor Zhao was very afraid that this thing would sting him.

    It seems that the number of wasps in Liu Junhao¡¯s yard has suddenly increased.  In the past, there were only a few hundred of them and they were not conspicuous at all. However, the weather has suddenly become hotter these days, and a large number of bee pupae have hatched in the reed tubes. The front yard has become dangerous.

    Looking at the bees buzzing in the sky above the yard, I estimate there are at least three to four thousand.  Liu Junhao wondered if he should find a time to move the reeds to an inconspicuous corner of the backyard. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with someone in the yard who was stung.

    Before he could take action, the little boy happily came over with a bowl.  As soon as he entered the yard, he shouted: "Uncle Xiao Hao, I have brought you delicious food."

    "What a good thing, let me take a look." After hearing this, Professor Zhao stretched his head and looked at it, and said with some surprise: "I see, where did you get it? Why are there so many?"

    Although cicadas are already chirping in mid-June, the cicadas eaten at this time are different from what we usually eat. They are called crawling cicadas.  It is very small, slightly larger than a gadfly.  This thing is very sneaky and very difficult to catch.

    The boy proudly placed the bowl on the stone slab and said, "Guess"

    "What's there to guess? I must have dug the roots of the poplar trees this morning." Liu Junhao told the origin of these cicadas. When he was on the street, he happened to meet Liu Junqi digging roots by the ditch, so he naturally knew.

    The cicada has to live underground for two or three years before it sheds its shell. During this time, it mainly sucks the sap from tree roots to sustain life.  Therefore, villagers often dig up a lot of cicadas when digging tree roots or digging soil.

    "I want my mother to fry it for me, but she doesn't agree. Uncle Xiao Hao, let's fry it at your house later." According to the rules of rural people, this kind of cicada that has not been exposed to light cannot be eaten.  There is a lump in the belly.

    But now most people know that it is superstitious, so they don¡¯t pay so much attention to it. The idiot¡¯s mother probably made such an excuse because he didn¡¯t want to bother.

    "You kid, you have been thinking about eating all day long, so soak it in the water and wash it first." Liu Junhao was a little moved when he saw these plump cicadas. The unearthed cicadas were more tender, so he fried them in the oil pan.  , absolutely delicious.

    ¡°You¡¯re not much better,¡± as soon as he finished saying that, Professor Zhao started to feel sorry for the kid.  When it comes to eating, Liu Junhao is definitely an expert.  The delicious dishes he cooks are praised by everyone who has eaten them. Mother Zhang was also full of praises when she came last time.

    The furry kid poured all the cicadas into the tub with a huff, and then stared at the honey in the yard.

    "Oh!" Before the two adults could react, the naughty kid had already jumped out of the fence, with two bumble bees above his head chasing him away.

    Liu Junhao, with quick eyes and quick hands, picked up a broom and danced over, knocking down the bees.

    "You naughty kid, can you live in peace for a while? What if the bee explodes the nest? Have you been stung?" He quickly pulled the furry kid over and asked.

    "No, I ran fast just now"

    After this incident, Liu Junhao knew that he could not continue like this.  These local wasps are not as good-tempered as bees. If there are too many, they will easily explode into a swarm. It is better to move them to the backyard as early as possible.

    It was just how to move the bee swarm that gave him a problem. The local bees did not have a hive. If he wanted to move, he could only move the reed stack as a whole.  What if they move to the backyard and fly away without knowing the place? He is still waiting to eat the honey.

    Liu Junhao and Professor Zhao have been eating a lot of honey these days, and Zhang Qian also gets a few reed pipes to drink from time to time.

    She also specially compared local honey with jujube honey bought in the supermarket, and finally concluded that jujube honey is sweeter, but it is cloyingly sweet and has no floral fragrance at all.

    This comparison is of course not accurate, and it really does injustice to the bees.  outsideThe honey sold on the side is not real, most of it is adulterated.  In order for bees to produce large amounts of honey, beekeepers often feed them sugar.  Of course, some vendors who don't sell it are even more outrageous. Others mix honey with white sugar, but he mixes white sugar with honey.

    After careful consideration, Liu Junhao finally came up with a safe solution.  That is to build a reed pile in the backyard and lure some of the wasps there.

    Of course, when choosing the site, he deliberately piled the reed stacks in the corner against the wall, so that it would be safe even if someone entered the backyard.

    Professor Zhao was originally very skeptical about this method, but the result was unexpected.  As soon as they piled the reeds, many wasps flew over and burrowed in and out of the reed pipes.

    After dealing with the bumblebees outside, Liu Junhao paid attention to the situation inside his stone lock. Everything inside was as before.  Now there are three large flower skins as big as bowls lying flat on the sand, and there are a total of twenty small watermelons as big as fists. It is obvious that these are all the work of Bumblebee.

    Cicadas are easy to fry. Pour in rapeseed oil and place the wood on the rack. After a while, there is a crackling sound in the oil pan. After mixing the noodles, throw the cicadas into the pot and you can eat them in a few minutes.

    Liu Junhao was too lazy to save trouble, so he just ate it as lunch. The beef was cooked anyway.

    It was only half past eleven, and they had already had lunch early.

    After eating cicadas, the furry kid started thinking about the little rabbits in the yard.

    Although Liu Junhao has never taken care of them since they were born, they all grow plump and look particularly happy and solid.

    Recently, there have been many people who have had the idea of ??rabbits, but they were all rejected by Liu Junhao.  He plans to raise these rabbits by himself until they are strong enough to eat meat during the Chinese New Year.

    Sunday afternoon is naturally a busy time for Liu Junhao. Many tourists returning to the city come to buy eels.

    In order to ensure that people would buy as they came, he caught more than ten kilograms of them early after dinner and put them in a wooden basin. Of course, he also got a lot of loaches and put them in the iron bucket next to him.  The loach is just an added bonus. Liu Junhao, who comes to buy eel, will get half a catty for them.

    Loach is not worth much, but don¡¯t underestimate the half-pound extra. This move has brought Liu Junhao many repeat customers.

    As soon as he finished his work, a customer came to the door. However, this time the customer was a little special. Wang Shengli personally brought him here.

    After introducing each other, Liu Junhao knew the identity of the visitor. He was Gao Lei, manager of the aquatic products department of the county Makro Supermarket. He was here to inspect the eel.

    "How was the eel seedlings you got from me last time? It's almost time to sell them, right?" When Wang Shengli came over last time, he shamelessly asked Liu Junhao for more than a dozen kilograms of eel seedlings. Now it's almost time.  It's time to sell.

    "It's okay, that's all." Wang Shengli replied without any emotion on his face.  But he was quite depressed in his heart. The last time he bought eel seedlings from here, he had high hopes and was ready to do something big.

    At first, these eel seedlings did grow faster than usual, and there was almost no death.  But after a while, the growth rate of the eel obviously changed.

    When the eel grew big enough to be eaten, he fried two plates for comparison. It tasted better than the eel outside, but it was not that obvious. It was very different from the eel from Liu Junhao's family.

    The eel is the same eel, why can¡¯t it work if the place is changed?  Wang Shengli was puzzled.  In order to maintain the characteristics of the eel, he dug several ditches based on the stocking model of Liu Junhao's family.

    ¡°I¡¯m sure this guy has some unique breeding skills that he hasn¡¯t told me. This is Wang Shengli¡¯s final conclusion. He must master this technique.

    He had made a good plan and was preparing to come to Liu Junhao in two days. Who knew that Gao Lei would come to visit him.

    The two of them are old friends. Wang Shengli sometimes delivers aquatic products to the supermarket, so Gao Lei didn't take any detours and directly asked about the eels.

    Wang Shengli knew everything, saying that the quality of his eels was indeed excellent, but in the end he also emphasized that it would be difficult to sign a contract.

    Want to come over and buy eels?  Liu Junhao originally wanted to refuse outright, but he thought about it and still didn't say it. It was not easy for people to travel all the way, so he had to entertain him before talking.  So he quickly invited a few people to sit in the house.

    Gao Lei was eager to see the eels, and he only sat there for less than ten minutes before he asked to see the eels.  Liu Junhao did not refuse and led him directly to the backyard.

    Seeing such a scene for the first time, Gao Lei was also a little shocked.  The ditches were densely packed with eels, and the density was quite astonishing.

    After the visit, he immediatelyOffered to try the eel.

    Helpless, Liu Junhao had no choice but to roll up his sleeves, go to the kitchen again, and make a dish of braised eel.

    After Gao Lei tasted it, he naturally praised it repeatedly and immediately offered to sign a supply and sales contract with Liu Junhao. The price is definitely easy to negotiate.

    Liu Junhao naturally said politely, "You can eat as much food as you want. Currently, the eels raised in his yard cannot be supplied in large quantities."

    But even though he refused this time, he still had some thoughts in his heart.  If the ditch in front of the door is renovated, we should be able to supply more eels.
