Villager of Daming

Chapter 298
The group of people who sold the bees stood by and watched, wondering what Xiaqiu Village was doing.

After waiting for a while, someone moved a large wooden basin, placed one at a distance, and poured the water into it.

It's almost done, and then throw in the duckweed caught by the river, or tear the lotus leaves into small pieces and throw them in.

Before the merchants asked, they saw a bee land on the leaf, probe into the water, and fly back to the beehive after a while.

"Lichang, why did you do this?" the person at the convenience department asked.

"Well, the bees drowned in the river because it was hot and they needed to cool down their hives and replenish water at the same time.

There are few footholds on the river, and they can't step on them and drown naturally. After putting these leaves that can float on the water, the bees will settle on them.

The shed above naturally blocks the sun, and people know how to hide in a cool place to escape the heat, let alone bees. "

When the village chief saw that he got the item, he stopped hiding it and told the merchants what the problem was.

"Didn't you say that you want to fry the bees and eat them, chop up the beeswax and boil them in water to drink?" the previous businessman asked as if you were lying to me.

"That's stupid, now that they can be rescued, after a while, new bees come out.

Yes, they are not in good shape, I have to give them some extra salt and sugar, and wait for the new bee pupae to hatch and they can handle themselves.

You must understand the things you feed on. Why don’t you ask others when you collect bees? "

The chief was very patient, and finally expressed his curiosity.

"Which beekeeper would easily teach others this? I knew... oops!" The man slapped his thigh vigorously, annoyed.

The expressions of the other people were also very rich, some were gnashing their teeth, some were sighing up to the sky, and some were staring blankly.

The head of the village made money, and felt that he should pass on some knowledge to others for free, so he went on to say: "Business! It's better to be familiar with it.

Don't look at other businessmen looking for opportunities to buy and sell in convenience stores. One of them is that they are familiar with a certain commodity.

Another one too!They have special people under their hands to be responsible for familiarizing themselves with other commodities.

For example, I am in Xiaqiu Village. Our Xiaqiu Village is familiar with... everything, right?no way.

Don't touch that leaf, don't... oops!Don't move, if you move the bee needle again, you will feel uncomfortable if you pick it again. "

While the chief was talking, Shopkeeper Song squatted beside the wooden basin, reaching out to touch the leaves, on which there were bees drinking water.

As a result, the bee sacrificed itself to Shopkeeper Song.

A child from the village went over and carefully helped Shopkeeper Song remove the bee needle, and told Shopkeeper Song: "Put it in your mouth to suck it yourself, or find someone with strong fingers to squeeze it for you."

Someone from the side came over to help squeeze, while shopkeeper Song stood there numbly.

After a while, he turned his head to look at the chief: "So you can't produce any more honey? Do you want bees to collect honey?"

"Xiaqiu Village will send people to distribute these beehives to various places in Yingtian Mansion to give the bees more sources of honey. With proper care, after a month, they can harvest [-] catties of honey.

Before winter, we can get more than [-] catties of honey, because we didn't cut the crop in spring, we can only cut it in summer and autumn.

In summer, you can cut more times, and cut a little less each time. In autumn, it depends on the specific situation. If there is more honey, cut more, and if there is less honey, don’t cut.

The remaining honey is kept for the bees to eat themselves in winter, so as to ensure that there will be enough bees to collect honey quickly in the spring of next year. "

The head of the village did not directly answer Shopkeeper Song's question, but talked about the production and time of honey.

He was telling Shopkeeper Song that your [-] jin was taken away, and it has no effect on us. If you have the ability, do it again?
Shopkeeper Wang asked for advice: "Zhu Lichang, how do you keep bees in winter?"

"Depending on whether the weather is cold or not, the bees in Fujian and Guangzhou will gather honey in winter, but those in Yingtianfu basically stop.

Further north, a large number of bees will die in winter. They switch positions back and forth, the outermost one is the coldest, and the inner one is warmer.

Then they flap their wings to move the warm air inside, and there must be enough honey to eat.

No need for those in Xiaqiu Village. This year Xiaqiu Village has [-] mu of greenhouses, and the imperial court built [-] mu of greenhouses and moved beehives into them. "

The head of the village did not refuse, and told the other party that it was impossible for the other party to really raise bees anyway, and the key points were not enough after listening to them.

While we were talking here, the wooden basins had already been put in place, and the person in charge of the beehives asked the merchants for money. If you sold them, give us the money.

The merchants dare not refuse to give, these people are also recruited through the convenience store, and the convenience store withholds their deposit!
"Zhu Lichang, do you still need someone to help watch?" A person who received the money turned and asked the Lichang.

"How much did they give you?" The village chief asked about the price first.

The office's mouth is quick: "Twenty yuan a day, fifteen yuan at night, [-] yuan for one day and one night, but they can take turns to sleep, as long as no one steals things."

The chief nodded, and said to the beehive keeper who came over: "Fifty cash during the day and ten cash at night, you can sleep in rotation as before.

During the day, other people will come to help fill the bees' wooden basin with water. If the water is dirty, it must be replaced.

And in the evening, remove the shed for shelter. After a few days, someone will come to carry the beehives, and you can follow them. "

"I'll do it. I'll do it for the village chief. I'm not afraid of being tired, but I'm afraid of making less money." A person behind shouted loudly.

Others also nodded vigorously, sixty yuan a day, busy during the day, and sleep at night, it's okay.

In fact, I can sleep during the day, and after finishing the work, I can find a cool place to lie down.

Under normal circumstances, who will steal the beehives if they don't keep bees?Even honey will not be cut.

"Three meals a day." The chief added.

The hired people stared at the chief with fiery eyes. They had heard that the people who worked for Xiaqiu Village had meat in their meals.

Calculated in this way, sixty yuan a day, three meals, making a lot of money, isn't it just transporting water!If you eat meat, you will gain strength.

Some people turned their heads to look at the previous businessman, contemptuous, really stingy, they paid thirty cents a day and night, and they still had no food, no wonder you lost money raising bees.

But after thinking about it again, I gave a lot, forget it, forgive you, it's pitiful.

"Everyone, we have finished the deal. Why don't we go to Fuhualou to have a meal together and enjoy some thin noodles. What if there is any business cooperation in the future?"

The head of the village invited these businessmen to have dinner. He wanted to know from the other party what these people usually do. If the beehives were collected from Zhejiang, how could the local beekeepers in Zhejiang be willing to sell them?
Shopkeeper Song and others didn't want to have dinner with Zhu Lichang, but they got angry when they saw Zhu Lichang.

But the last sentence made them wake up. If there is any business in the future, it seems that it will work. The chief of Xiaqiu Village knows a lot.

"There are also food and wine nearby!" Shopkeeper Hao talked about the food left by himself and others.

"I'll find someone to pay the bill, and I'll give things to other people." The village chief is willing to pay the bill.
