Chapter 141 As expected of the Master of the Book Pavilion
If it's not the fault of the nursery owner, then it must be the employees who lined their own pockets and substituted inferior goods during the actual feeding process.
Li Shuwen smiled and said, "Manager, could I see the fairy food you've prepared for the three bees?"
The owner nodded. "Please follow me."
In the hive of the three honeybees, there are special feeding troughs for feeding the fairies.
There were some leftover elf food inside.
Li Shuwen picked one up, smelled it, and then tasted it.
No problem, it is indeed high-quality bee spirit food.
Looking at the honeycomb's honey-making boxes, there was indeed a considerable amount of honey that had already been made.
Everything was just as the owner had said.
Li Shuwen narrowed his eyes. Logically speaking, the three bees had no reason to deceive him.
and many more!
There's another possibility!
Li Shuwen then said, "Boss, let's go check out the hives of those three-necked bees that escaped."
The owner hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay."
The three bees have been gone from the feeding trough here for several days.
But isn't this feeding trough a little too clean?
Li Shuwen carefully observed his surroundings and finally found some fairy food outside the beehive.
It must have been blown away by the three angry bees using their skills.
I picked one up, smelled it, and then crushed the elf food.
"These are indeed two different kinds of fairy food, with a price difference of about ten times, plus the amount needed for fifty or even a hundred three-bees."
The owner was a seasoned businessman, so Li Shuwen didn't need to explain the rest.
He understood!
Looking at the honey-making boxes, they were equally clean.
Li Shuwen reached out to touch it, then smelled it, nodded, and said, "It smells like white sugar. Someone replaced the remaining honey with sugar water."
The farm owner's face turned ashen; he had basically figured out why the three bees had run away.
"Owner, please prepare high-quality elf food for fifty three-bees, enough for at least three meals a day, and also prepare 23% of the daily production of honey."
"I'll go talk to the Three Bees; maybe I can get them to come back."
The owner immediately smiled, "Then I'll leave it to you, Master Shuwen."
There were quite a lot of things, so Li Shuwen had to borrow a Kentauro from the flower nursery to help carry them.
Upon arriving at the hive of the Three Bees, Li Shuwen smiled and said, "Three Bees, I'm here to negotiate."
Having had their previous encounter, the three bees did not directly attack Li Shuwen this time.
He was given a chance to speak.
Li Shuwen directly took the fairy food and three honeys off Tauros's back.
"Actually, this is the food the owner arranged for you. The inferior food you had before was the result of someone stealing it."
"You can try it. This elven food tastes quite good, and it also has three kinds of honey. The owner only leaves this much for you in a day."
The three bees tasted it and found that this elven food did indeed taste much better.
Even the three honeys left over were enough to meet her needs.
But the three bees still refused to go back.
Staying in the flowerbed always made the three bees feel uneasy.
Moreover, they can find enough food in these valleys.
Why go back?
Li Shuwen smiled and said, "The wild is very dangerous. If you stay in the wild, many Pokémon that want to steal your honey will attack your nest."
"Three Bees, do you think you have the ability to protect everyone?"
The three bees are very confident.
Li Shuwen smiled and said, "Then why don't you fight my Pokémon? Its strength should be about the same as those Pokémon that want to steal the honey."
"Because it targets the entire bee colony, all three bees in the hive here can participate."
She was confident that even if the female bee went up alone, she could defeat Li Shuwen's Pokémon.
Not to mention, the swarm of bees attacked together.
"If I lose, you can have all this food for free. If you lose, you'd better go back to the flower garden. How does that sound?"
The three female bees agreed.
Li Shuwen released the strong chicken, and the aroma of the honey from the open bottle nearby made the chicken's mouth water.
You know what, Combusken really does look a lot like those Pokémon that steal and rob honey.
The three bees issued a call, and more than twenty other three bees gathered around.
"A flash of lightning!"
The strong chicken transformed into a white light and instantly rushed in front of the three bees.
A powerful force was channeled through the elbows into the three bees' bodies.
He elbowed her so hard she was completely stunned.
"Grasp!"
Three bees swarmed around it, attempting to create a gust of wind to attack.
With a sudden burst of strength from its legs, the strong rooster leaped forward and swung its claw.
With its claws flying incessantly, it knocked three bees to the ground one by one.
Only now did the female three bees realize that she was a production-type Pokémon.
The vast difference between them and fighting-type Pokémon like Combusken.
For the strong chickens, beating them is as easy as playing a game.
In a short while, all three bees were utterly defeated.
Li Shuwen took out the medicine for injuries and examined and treated each of them one by one.
Finally, he approached the stunned female bee and said, "Now you understand just how important a safe living and production environment is, right?"
"Alright, everyone, come back and have a proper meal."
Wilderness survival is not that simple.
As a female honeybee, she is provided for by male honeybees.
Even under such harsh conditions, she was not allowed to go hungry.
However, these male honeybees not only don't have enough to eat, but they also have to go out to collect nectar.
So the strong chicken can knock out three bees with a single swipe of its claw.
After enjoying the high-quality fairy food, the male honeybees quickly regained their vitality.
Perhaps they had been hungry for a long time, because the three bees ate most of the elf food that Li Shuwen had brought in one meal.
The remaining 20% of the honey was completely consumed by the 49 male honeybees.
Bees can eat fairy food, but they still can't live without the nourishment of honey.
The three female bees could not tolerate the peach blossom garden.
Because she only ate inferior elf food and lacked honey, she was unable to evolve into a bee queen.
After putting away the remaining elf food, Li Shuwen asked, "Is there any honey left in the beehive? You can use this bucket to take it back. Don't worry, all of this honey belongs to you."
The three female bees nodded.
These past few days they've been eating as much honey as they've collected.
The beehive only has the little bit of nectar collected today.
Although it wasn't much, it was still honey that had been painstakingly collected.
Li Shuwen nodded, "Okay, let's go back to the flower nursery then. The flower nursery is not only safe, but we can also collect all kinds of honey right outside our door."
The three bees warmly invited Li Shuwen to taste the nectar they had collected.
Li Shuwen didn't stand on ceremony and took out a soup spoon to scoop out a bowl.
He only drank a small sip himself, and gave the rest to the strong chicken.
The strong chicken happily squinted its eyes.
Then, holding the bowl, he pointed to the remaining honey inside.
"Chamo!"
Li Shuwen was both amused and exasperated, and took a piece of bread out of his backpack.
"Use this to dip in honey, and you can eat it all up."
Seeing Li Shuwen riding a Kentairo followed by a large swarm of three bees, the flower nursery owner was moved to tears.
He invested tens of millions of yuan in these three bees, and if half of them escape, he doesn't know how many years it will take to recoup his costs.
Li Shuwen smiled and said, "Boss, I brought back all fifty of these three-necked bees. Please count them."
The owner nodded excitedly, "As expected of the renowned Master of the Book and Literature Pavilion, his work is truly extraordinary!"
