Primitives are stunned

Chapter 307 Catching the Hardworking Bee
Nature is the most generous giver.

Whether it is food, drink or use, it is all produced in nature.

The sweet dumplings stuffed with honey last time made Maoqiu eat from ear to ear and almost burst his stomach.

There is no shortage of salt in the village anymore, and even those villages who waited early every morning at the small shop in Wangcun, waiting to buy salt with copper coins and earning the difference.

For several days in a row, Wangcun started to supply salt, and the salt price in the village quickly returned to its original state.

Those opportunistic villages have accumulated a large amount of high-priced salt in their hands, and now they have no choice but to sell it.

That's why they can't be angry. After all, from the very beginning, Wang Hao told them clearly that there is plenty of salt in the village, so they should not be single-minded.

When life becomes a little richer, people's demand for taste increases.

Now that the salty one is already available, the sweetness is naturally what everyone is looking forward to.

150 beehive carpenters and their apprentices were quickly completed.

Wooden beehives are actually not difficult, you just need to stick them together with ready-made isinglass and resin.

The only trouble is that in the absence of a chainsaw, those boards need to be sawed out bit by bit by the clansmen.

As for the frame inside the beehive, it is even simpler. Cut four small square wooden sticks to a suitable length and stick them together.

On the earth, beekeeping has a history of many years, but this is the first time a young girl gets on a sedan chair in the wilderness.

Compared with the bees on the earth, the golden bees in the Great Wilderness are nothing more than golden yellow in color, which is more vivid, and the rest are basically the same.

When Wang Hao said that these wooden boxes were used to catch bees, the tribe couldn't figure out what Wang Hao was going to do.

Although they don't know the detailed process of honey production, people in Dahuang at least know that bees have to fly out to gather nectar to produce honey.

If they are kept in a small black box, they will not be able to gather nectar.

But if they are allowed to pick honey, they must be released and allowed to move freely.

Then what to do when they fly away.

You can't tie a rope around every bee's waist, and let people follow it when picking nectar every day.

Such bees that cannot produce honey, even if they can be caught, are of use.

Therefore, everyone really couldn't figure out what method Wang Hao could use to catch bees.It can not only make it gather honey, but also prevent it from escaping.

The ground genes of Hwaseong need to be prepared for races that can drill into the ground in the wilderness, so they dig very deep.

Therefore, the foundation needs a lot of gravel.

Fortunately, on the opposite side of the river is the rolling stone mountain, and the nearby material saves Wangcun a lot of work.

And this group of hives hanging at the bottom of the cliff was discovered by the giant.

Under normal circumstances, the hives of golden bees are either cast in hidden tree holes, or built in safe mountain crevices, and few are directly exposed to the outside.

But there are exceptions to everything. For example, the beehive in this area is suspended under a protruding cliff.

The protruding cliffs can well protect the hives so that predators cannot attack them from above.

And smooth stone walls are impossible to climb, so the natural enemies of bees cannot hurt them from below.

I don't know how long this bee colony has been multiplying here. Anyway, when Wang Hao came here for the first time, he was also frightened by the densely packed beehives under the cliff.

The cliff is on the side of the backlight, and there is still a distance from the place where the giants opened the stone.

It's just that, the giant is a human mountain opener, and when it goes down with a hammer, it's like an earthquake, and the mountains of these rocky mountains are connected together.So those bees will naturally be frightened and take off in swarms.

It was the discovery of the swarm of bees that led the giant to find the cliff in the direction of their flight.

The height of more than seven meters and the protruding cliffs can allow the bee colony to avoid those predators, but facing giants that are taller than the cliffs, this is not enough.

Typically, bee nests are rarely built in one piece.

I don't know if it's because the habitat here is so good or for other reasons, anyway, there are patches of beehives here.

The last time he found this honeycomb, Wang Hao asked the giant to pick a part of the honeycomb because he needed honey.

Those bee colonies that lost their hives either looked for those abandoned hives to use, or fled here to find new places to live.

More than 100 beehives are too many, so they rely on the Black Armor Army to transport them. This can be regarded as their second mission.

It is actually quite simple to capture bee colonies like this kind of hive that is exposed outside.

Taming the bee colony is actually a process of capturing the queen bee.

As long as the queen bee can be caught into the beehive, and then the beehive is placed near the original hive, those bee colonies that leave the nest will gradually return.

When they came here, Wang Hao and the others put on black armor, and their whole bodies were tightly protected.

As for giants, they are not afraid of these bee stings at all.After all, with such a huge size, the skin is also very thick, not to mention his immunity to most toxins and powerful regenerative ability, the thickness of the skin alone is not enough for these ordinary bees to sting through.

The queen bee is usually in the middle of the hive, although the queen bee can also fly, but usually, it rarely leaves the hive.Even if its nest was picked off by someone.

Therefore, when the giant picked a hive out of the cliff, most of the bees flew away, but the queen bee did not leave.

With the help of the identification ability of the system, Wang Hao can clearly know where the queen bee is in the hive.

Facing the queen bee crawling around, Wang Hao was a bit awkward. After all, bees are very fragile creatures. If he accidentally crushed them to death, he would not be able to catch the hive of bees.

But this did not bother Wang Hao.After thinking for a while, he took out the Haotian Sword, found out where the queen bee was, and dug out the entire honeycomb.

Then before the queen bee escaped from the hive, it was sealed in the beehive.

Around the beehive, eight small holes are left for ordinary bees to enter and exit.

But the queen bee's body is larger, and the small holes that the bees can enter and exit cannot pass through.So don't be afraid that it will slip away.

When the queen bee is sealed into the beehive, Wang Hao will mark the beehive, and then let the giant put it on the cliff, waiting for the return of the bees that left the nest.

As for those black armor soldiers who couldn't tell the queen bee apart, it was here that they began to deal with the hives picked by the giants.

PS: I have never raised bees before, and I checked a lot of information. In the end, I wrote it on the basis of half imagination and half information. If there is anything wrong, cough cough, anyway, this is a wilderness, and what I said is the truth, (*^__^ *)whee……
