Song Tan's Notes

Chapter 1653. Hereditary System

Big Bear—Big Bear's cubs aren't anything to look at.

In truth, the entire bumblebee colony is its offspring, all hatched by the queen.

But this is probably the only task Big Bear can do now, right?
Living a comfortable life, it has even become less inclined to reproduce. Today, the bumblebee still lives in the same hive, while the neighboring bee colony has grown to more than 50.

On the way up the mountain, Yunduo was very doubtful: "If more wasps come now, can Big Bear help?"

Qiaoqiao fell into a suspicious silence for a moment.

Children are not allowed to lie, so he said, "Sister Cloud, let's start a live stream instead."

Yun Duo, unaware that children's thoughts are also complex, was easily diverted from the topic: "Okay, let's go."

She picked up her phone, turned on the live stream, adjusted the camera, and casually mentioned it in the group chat.

In an instant, the large group of people who had been yelling earlier rushed up, and those who had missed the live stream but wanted to take advantage of the situation also surged forward.

In the short time it took to say hello, the number of viewers in the live stream quickly jumped to over 3.

She blinked, once again marveling at the sheer volume of attention.

Everyone quickly spotted Qiaoqiao's figure ahead, heading up the mountain with practiced ease, and urged her on:
[Link it now! Link it now!]

[Upload the link while there are fewer people online!]

Yes, hurry up!

[Hehe, I missed the live stream earlier, but fate made me wait for this one.]

My cucumbers! If I don't get them this time, I'll blame the whole world!

Yun handed the phone stand to Qiaoqiao, who was operating the backend system at the moment, and suddenly asked, "How many kilograms should we put in this order?"

Based on previous orders, it should normally be 5 jin (2.5 catties).

But they only picked 200 jin this morning. If it's only five jin, there won't be many orders. It's better to release them early.

Otherwise, if we wait until the number of people reaches hundreds of thousands or millions before releasing a few orders, wouldn't that be deliberately teasing people?

Qiaoqiao said, "Brother Yanping said that cucumbers and tomatoes are a perk, so it's 9.9 each with free shipping! Our cardboard boxes are all long and thin."

"And we'll only be picking for three days, then we'll be busy."

Yun Duo was busy dealing with other things and didn't pay attention to how the boxes were being sealed. She blurted out, "This is a complete loss!"

It's a real loss.

Even a regular cucumber from the market, after just a quick pass through a courier box, costs more than 9.9 yuan. Not to mention the packaging costs, shipping fees, seed cultivation, and the costs of cold storage.

It's a loss, a real loss.

But judging from the comments, people were instantly overjoyed:

[I have no confidence selling by weight, but I have a bright future if I sell one per person.]

[Qiao Qiao knows I'm unlucky! He cares about me!]

[Nonsense, it was clearly for my sake!]

[Link it now! Link it now!]

Just one! Qiaoqiao can't afford to lose money!

Yun Duo watched the barrage of comments, but her hands were quickly setting the backend conditions: one order per ID, 9.9 yuan with free shipping.

Their cucumbers are of standard size, each weighing about 200g! Wow!

Wouldn't that instantly boost the number of orders?

Just to be on the safe side, she set 480 orders.

She said she lost money, but Qiaoqiao laughed: "Because I did something wrong today. A lot of people waited all morning but didn't get the link. What if they can't buy it this time?"

"We'll see! My sister said she'd support me if we lose money!"

However, having worked so hard to grow these cucumbers, he felt a little guilty and weakly emphasized:
"We'll only be selling them for these three days! We'll start picking the tomatoes this evening."

It's going to be tough on Brother Zhang. The tomatoes will be picked around 7 a.m., and after they're cooled and packed, he'll probably have to get there around 9 a.m. to deliver them to the city. Yun Duo thought to herself, Brother Zhang has been making so much money lately that he'd be happy to go to the city even at 12 p.m., let alone at 9 a.m.

But as thoughts raced through his mind and his hands continued moving, he finished setting up the link and then said to Qiaoqiao:

"Qiaoqiao, remember to tell everyone that our cucumbers are not sold by weight. Some people's cucumbers may be bigger, and some people's may be smaller."

Although he wrote it on the details page, what if someone didn't see it?
Although they tried to pick them as evenly and straightly as possible, what if there were still differences?

Qiaoqiao said "Oh," and immediately explained, "You can't receive the goods and then ask for a refund if you think they're too small."

The fans in the live stream were practically swearing an oath to the heavens!

Anyone who tries to get me to buy this and then returns it is a dog.

[Ms. Qiao, could you please set a target of 100 million orders before saying this next time?]

【I didn't get anything, how can I return it? If I return nothing, will you compensate me with two cucumbers?】

[Don't say anything, upload the link while there are few people around!]

Yun Duo glanced at the comments and then posted the link.

Then it was the same old story: gone in seconds.

She breathed a sigh of relief and told She Min to connect and print the shipping label in the back office. Looking ahead, Qiao Qiao had already arrived in front of the beehive.

Compared to the busy buzzing beehives next to it, the bumblebee hives appeared much quieter.

It was so hot that not a single bumblebee had returned by this time.

and many more!

Yun Duo cautiously picked up the phone stand for Qiao Qiao and decided to look away first.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be awkward if we opened the beehive and found that no one was working?

She realized that the fans in the live stream had a very strong bias towards Da Xiong, and it wouldn't be good if that bias collapsed.

But Qiaoqiao didn't know.

He felt that it was no wonder that everyone didn't come back. Bumblebees are all big eaters and have large bodies. They can barely fill their stomachs after collecting pollen all day. How could they have the strength to fly back and cause trouble?

But with her limited knowledge, Yun Duo didn't understand the habits of bumblebees, yet she strongly suspected that the entire bumblebee colony had already learned to dawdle.

For example, the most persistent and hardworking ancestor, the Great Bear—the Great Bear's children.

Now, Qiaoqiao can no longer lure it out by putting her finger at the entrance of the hole; it will get stuck.

Simply open the hive, guide the bee inside to your fingertip, and then raise your hand to show it to the camera.

The comments section is filled with a strong sense of sympathy for bumblebees, completely unaware of their current state.

Seeing this fluffy, chubby body, which was even more plump than the previous bear, he couldn't help but feel satisfied:
Good bear, good bear.

So fat! So fat!

So round, so round...

What are the names of Big Bear's cubs?

“It’s still called Big Bear,” Yun Duo blurted out, then quickly added, “This name is hereditary.”

What a wonderful hereditary system!

Even the fans are stumped by this.

I wanted to say something like "There's only one Big Bear," but this bumblebee in front of me looks just like Big Bear! It's even rounder, fatter, and cuter, so I felt too embarrassed to say anything critical.

So be it! Hereditary is hereditary.

Let's just pretend I'm still a big bear.

[Big Bear! Big Bear!]

I really miss the pollen baskets that used to hang on the bear's legs...

I feel so sleepy after taking loratadine...
