I will plant a field in the last days

Chapter 538 Buying Insect Meat

"There are no eternal friends or enemies in the world, only eternal interests. As long as we bundle our respective interests together, then we will be eternal friends. You no longer have to worry about your identity being exposed, because if you are exposed, I will You will lose profits." Jing Shu smiled and showed her white teeth, "Isn't it very simple?"

"But... do we have the same interests?" Wenjun thought about it carefully, but it seems not.

"Of course, think about it carefully. What do you lack most now? Is it daily necessities, salt, vitamins, bedding and cotton-padded clothes? It would be perfect if you could still eat vegetables and white rice every now and then, and even drink some milk, eggs, etc. Already?" Jing Shu asked, squinting her eyes.

Xiaowei nodded, "I want to eat. I haven't eaten for a long time. There is nothing edible except bugs in the village." There was still a bit of biscuit crumbs on his mouth.

"Ah? You don't want to eat?" Jing Shu was surprised.

"Yes, the queen of gastropods can eat by herself, that is, she eats the mud in the ground. She and I share nutrition as one body, so naturally we don't need to eat anymore. But if there is food, I would also like to eat it."

Wenjun said warily: "Of course we want these, but what do you want to exchange for them?" He vaguely guessed.

Jun Bao secretly thought it was a pity and was a step too late. He squinted his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, but the result was the same. In the end, it would be consumed in Wucheng, which could feed more people.

"Of course there are a lot of gastropods. According to what you said, a batch of gastropods matures in a month, and the queen of gastropods keeps eating and laying eggs every day. There should be a lot of gastropods now. Are there gastropods? How much can you consume with such a small number of people in your village? Aren't so many gastropods a waste? Why not use a lot of unpalatable insect meat and replace them with delicacies? Do you want to eat eggs? Do you want to eat rice? ?”

Xiaowei swallowed her saliva and nodded affirmatively. Ever since she turned into a bug, she had a desire to eat everything.

"Then it's settled. We exchange and help each other for mutual benefit, so we have no reason to expose you, right? Otherwise it will harm our own interests." Jing Shu smiled, that's great, and it's a little lighter for the money. Burden, when the time comes and people are starving to death, will the tyrant still have a reason to cut leeks?

Wait, tyrant. Jun Bao Jingshu thought to herself, there shouldn't be any connection between the two, right? No way, Jun Bao is such a weakling, incompetent, gentle, talkative, nosy, caring, positive and optimistic person. How could he be the cruel, callous and ruthless person who kills without batting an eyelid? What about the tyrant with hundreds of thousands of people?

Her age, personality, and family background may not match her. It is almost time for the tyrant to take office in the previous life. After all, Jin Tianci died. Due to her butterfly effect in this life, the tyrant may not take office.

But...it doesn't look like it, it really doesn't look like it.

Before Jing Shu could think deeply, she was interrupted.

"Wait a minute!" Wen Jun struggled, "Who knew you were right now? If you go back and send people to kill us, snatch Xiaowei, torture her, and let her endlessly lay eggs and breed gastropods, what will you do? You can get everything without paying any price..." The more I thought about it, the more possible it became, and the more vigilant it became.

Jing Shu rolled her eyes: "You are stupid. If we really do this and wipe you out, won't Xiaowei commit suicide? She committed suicide and can't breed gastropods. What else can we do?" Jing Shu He also planned to let Xiaowei threaten to commit suicide when the tyrant still wants to cut leeks.

"Yes." Wenjun smiled, as if he had really found something mutually beneficial, "But how many gastropods do you want? We never want to breed too many gastropods, so we release the eggs we lay every day. They are frozen in the brood chamber, and only about a few tenths of them are hatched each time to sustain our daily consumption."

"Can you take us to the insect tunnel and brood room? This way I can determine how much insect meat you can provide and how much daily necessities we can provide you. By the way, I also want to see the black stall that Xiaowei mentioned. Water, I wonder if it is convenient for Xiaowei?" Jingshu looked at Xiaowei's lower body, her abdomen as huge as a big bed, it may be difficult for her to move, or she may have lost her mobility like the queen ant.

"Okay, okay, I'll take you to the insect tunnel. No one in the village dares to go there." Xiaowei snapped his fingers and saw four huge gastropods with giant pincers coming from all sides. He lifted Xiaowei up with the pliers.

Xiaowei's upper body is very stable and he has already adapted to it.

Here, Xiaowei is the real queen.

Wenjun followed with a flashlight, Jingshu and Junbao followed closely, placed Yangyang on the ground, and covered him with a quilt kindly.

There are several types of gastropods, some are responsible for fighting and protecting the queen, and some are responsible for feeding the queen (if there is really no food, they will feed themselves. This kind of insect usually transfers sperm when feeding the queen. \\子), some are responsible for foraging for food, and some are responsible for cleaning insect tunnels. Each one looks different.

Those who fight have giant pincers with great strength, those that transmit semen have specialized mouthparts, and those that dig insect tunnels have mouthparts like excavators. They are huge and have great endurance.

The insect tunnel is as huge as a maze, and gastropods shuttle back and forth, each performing their own duties, with only one purpose, and everything is to serve the queen.

Wenjun said: "Now there are 30 fighting ones, more than 80 semen transmitters, more than 300 foraging for food, about 30 digging, and 50 immature ones. These gastropods have a short lifespan. The one is only one or two months old, and the long one is not dead yet.”

He looked at Xiaowei with some worry: "I don't know how long the insect queen's lifespan is."

Xiaowei waved her hands and turned to comfort: "The queen ant can live for twenty years." Then he counted on his fingers and said: "I will provide you with the insect meat that you forage for. Their meat is strong, they grow fast, and they have more meat. Three Sixteen legs can be eaten. If one leg is not shelled, it is almost 400 kilograms. By the way, you still have to shell it?"

"No need to remove the shells, keep them alive." Jingshu said, the shells can also be eaten. Food is so precious now. When the time comes, smash the shells and meat, sprinkle some salt and flour, and shape into meatballs, and it will be another dish. She is as smart as she is.

Jingshu looked at the bugs running underground and thought they were very cute.

"By the way, if you let breeding go, how many can you produce in a month?"

Xiaowei first took people to the incubation room next door, which led to the small pavilion in the village.

"Normally, 450 eggs can be reproduced in a month, but now 2,500 eggs are placed in the brood chamber. However, the insects also have a large appetite, and the number of surrounding mire is limited. We can now breed up to 1,000 mature insects in a month."

Jingshu began to count quickly, and the number simply exceeded her expectations. It was great!
