I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village Chapter 797: The Method of Collection

Chapter 797: The thod of Collection

"Do you know if there are many of these insects?" Su Bai asked.

The honey produced by these insects was far too delicious. If he could collect it all, he could even create derivative products like confectionery.

"From what I hear, there seem to be quite a lot of them. It is just that they’re not near our Tribe," Yu Ying said regretfully.

If most of these White Foot Six Legged Insects were distributed near the Fla Dragon Tribe, the Tribesn would probably go catch them too.

After all, people of this era were not unfamiliar with these creatures, especially since their labour output was particularly sweet.

Sotis when Warriors on missions encountered these insects in the Wilderness, they would wait for them to produce honey.

They would then eat their honey to replenish their stamina, because when the body was fatigued, supplenting with a bit of sugar was imnsely helpful.

"Are these insects easy to keep alive?" Su Bai continued asking.

His inner desire to raise these insects was growing stronger and stronger, regardless of whether others were familiar with these insects or not.

Everyone had access to them, but it depended on how they could make use of the resources. This was what mattered most.

Just like the walking sticks, straw sandals, or umbrellas that the Tribe had been making recently. These materials were everywhere in nature, but to craft them required skill and insight.

"They seem quite easy to keep alive. They only eat one type of leaf, and as long as there are flowers, they can survive. You can see these insects wherever there are many flowers." Yu Ying explained.

"If that’s the case, then have the Warriors catch so of these insects and bring them back. I’m going to start raising them." Su Bai said with a smile.

Having just woken up to encounter such good fortune made him exceptionally happy.

It was not that he had never thought about getting so honey from the forest before, only he had not encountered any.

Moreover, he had asked the Chieftain and the others at the very beginning, wanting to know if there were bees or such in this Primitive Era. It was just that none of them had heard of that na nor seen anything matching the description.

"Shaman, are we really going to raise these insects? I think it will be very difficult," Yu Ying said worriedly.

Yu Ying felt these insects were not that easy to raise. Furthermore, they had no idea about their living habits.

"Of course. Didn’t you just say these insects can live as long as there are flowers? Besides, we’ve now planted quite a few flowers outside the Tribe, so raising them shouldn’t be a problem," Su Bai said calmly.

"Shaman, how should we raise these insects?" Yu Ying asked curiously.

"How do they generally live? And where is the honey usually produced?" Su Bai continued asking.

He needed to first understand this creature before he could determine how to raise these beings.

"It seems they all build a nest, and then produce all the honey inside it." Yu Ying said, finding the word ‘honey’ sowhat unfamiliar.

She had no idea that what the White Foot Six Legged Insects produced was called honey. She only knew it was delicious.

What Yu Ying knew about this knowledge she had heard from her Uncle, who was none other than Cang Shi of the Hunting Team.

"Oh? In that case, there’s not much difference from the bees in my holand," Su Bai said with a smile.

"What are the bees from Shaman’s holand like? Are these beasts very fierce?" Yu Ying’s face was written all over with curiosity.

Yu Ying was full of curiosity about Su Bai’s holand. Every ti she heard about strange things, they all ca from the Shaman’s holand.

"The bees in my holand also build nests, and then produce all the honey inside it. They also feed on this honey," Su Bai explained.

"I see. But if Shaman wants to raise them, what should we do? We have no way to build their nests," Yu Ying asked curiously.

"This is very simple. We just need to place so boxes. I’ll have Uncle Gu Mu make these boxes," Su Bai said softly.

He planned to imitate the way bees were raised back on Earth, placing so boxes beside the garden for these White Foot Six Legged Insects to live in, then collecting the honey they produced.

"Shaman, why place the boxes in the garden? Don’t the White Foot Six Legged Insects have their own nests?" Yu Ying was completely confused.

"These boxes will beco their new nests. This way, collecting honey will be much easier for us," Su Bai explained.

"So that’s how it is. Only, will they really be willing to go inside?" Yu Ying said worriedly.

Yu Ying did not think these creatures would be obedient. Even if placed inside, they would probably crawl out.

"What are their nests like? Do they form this shape" Su Bai continued asking while drawing in the air.

He wanted to confirm whether the White Foot Six Legged Insects’ nests were the sa as bees’. If so, it would be easy to handle.

"How does Shaman know? Isn’t this your first ti seeing these insects?" Yu Ying said in shock.

"That’s good. If that’s the case, they will enter the empty boxes." Su Bai said with absolute certainty.

"Shaman, do you have a good thod?" Yu Ying asked expectantly, constantly swaying her pink fox tail.

Yu Ying’s thirst for knowledge was imdiately aroused. She wanted to see what clever thod the Shaman had.

"First, a group of White Foot Six Legged Insects always has a queen. We need to find the queen."

Su Bai beca serious and continued explaining, "Use an empty White Foot Six Legged Insect nest and stick it in the empty box, then let the queen crawl onto the empty nest we’ve prepared."

Yu Ying did not dare interrupt at all, listening intently to the explanation.

"Afterwards, we put the nest with the queen into the prepared box, and place this box near the original nest. The White Foot Six Legged Insects without a queen will follow the scent of the queen and move themselves."

Su Bai took a sip of water and continued explaining, "They will crawl into the box we’ve prepared. Generally, they’ll all be inside within an hour."

"Shaman, and then?" Yu Ying asked impatiently. This sounded far too interesting.

"Then break off the old wild nest and throw it into the new box. The White Foot Six Legged Insects will move the old nest’s honey and pollen into the new box, and it’s basically done," Su Bai said with a smile.

What he was describing was the sealed hive collection thod from Earth, also the operational thod of beekeepers there.

If the White Foot Six Legged Insects of this Primitive Era were truly the sa as the bees back on Earth, this would be how they could handle them.

"Shaman is really clever. To actually have such an amazing thod. But, can this really be done?" Yu Ying asked curiously.

Yu Ying understood, only she felt this seed too simple, that there might be issues along the way!

"We’ll know once we try," Su Bai said with a smile.
