Chapter 1677: Beekeeping During the Bee Season

The man looked at it, still smiling: "How many spleens does Xiaolang have at home?"

"Follow us in a moment and go to the cruiser. I'll check this brother's eyes. If he's sick, he'll be treated by a doctor. If he's short-sighted, he'll be given a pair of mirrors."

Li Yi could tell that the other person's eyes were not good. Didn't he see that the woman was nervous? The man was okay.

"Thank you, Boss Li. Thank you, Boss Li." The woman thanked her repeatedly.

"Ah? Dongzhu Li? Li Yi?" The man came to his senses and took two steps closer to take a look. He didn't recognize him.

"When did you lose sight of things in the distance?" Li Yi asked, observing the man's eyes.

"When I was young, my parents were blinded early, and then they encountered a flood..." The man stopped as he spoke.

"How are your eyes? Do you have children?" Li Yi looked at the woman.

"I have good eyesight and have two children. The eldest daughter is eleven years old and the younger son is five years old. In fact, there are five children in total." The woman was not very sad.

"Where is the child?" Li Yi turned to ask Sun Xin.

"In school, I look for people to work. If someone has children, I can't ask them to work with them. In order to maintain a good reputation, I have to keep pretending."

Changsun Xin said seriously that he cares about his current reputation.

"Okay, you have some understanding! Help with the work, and your movements should be gentle and slow. Don't open and close too much, which can easily misunderstand the bees."

As he spoke, Li Yi walked to a beehive and gently pulled out the frame to observe: "The wall of the hive is thicker. Let's see how much there is. Replace it with a new spleen when harvesting honey."

"Dr. Li, what you were about to say is that these are beehives bought elsewhere. We will deal with them first if they happen to be divided into hives."

This time the man didn't ask how many spleen bees Li Yi's family had. He knew that Li Yi didn't know.

Lijiazhuang is so big, how could proprietor Li specifically keep track of how many bees there are?

"Okay, ask Inspector Chang Sun and he will make arrangements." Li Yi slowly inserted it back in and licked his fingers.

Others help wash the tarpaulin, check whether one side is dry, and change the other side when it is dry.

"We will live in the future and raise them in a greenhouse in the winter. We will go get some honey for everyone to try. This is our own honey."

Changsun Xin gave a guarantee that he couldn't help, and he wouldn't.

But he knows how to take care of people and make others happy.

Among his duties was a minister named Shangyi Fengyu, who was responsible for the emperor's clothes, tables, chairs, tea cups and other utensils.

The woman immediately went to get it. There was nothing else mixed with the honey.

In Li Yi's time, any food had a shelf life, including salt and honey, which was usually twenty-four months.

If you see a shelf life of eighteen months, it means the purity is too low.

Sealed honey can be stored for ten or eight years without any problem.

The people in the team are not short of honey to eat, so they might as well try some of their own.

The honey brewed from different flowers has different flavors, so I can't say which one is the best.

"It rained yesterday, are you two tired?" Changsun Xin thought of something.

"Someone can help. The land and bees brought by Changsun's inspector will be watched by the local people." The woman praised Changsun Xin again.

The actual situation is as she said. Yesterday, when the locals saw how beautiful the morning glow was, they came over to help set up beehives and cover them with tarpaulins.

"Remember it? Leave some beeswax to send over when the honey is harvested."

Changsun Xin used the same method of serving the emperor in dealing with people.

"Remember, there are some that have been dealt with before, and there will be more when the spleen is replaced." The man replied with a smile.

Beeswax should not be purified and used to light candles. It should be used as medicine and food. Honey is not allowed to be used in making incense.

"Let's go together." After everyone tasted and finished their work, Li Yi greeted, there was no need to leave anyone behind.

The couple held each other's arms and followed the team to the next place.

A maid next to them handed them water and compressed biscuits and asked them to eat while walking.

You can tell by looking at the situation. In the morning, the beehives were set up and the tarpaulins were washed and dried. It was obvious that they had not eaten at this moment.

"My dear daughter, you are so thoughtful," the woman praised.

Taohong smiled slightly and said nothing, the careless palace maid...

"I know this is called compressed biscuit, and it tastes better than black bread." The man took a bite and it was delicious.

The compressed biscuits he ate were different from those in the army. The palace maids and eunuchs made them separately and carried them with them at any time. They could only take a bite when they were too busy to eat.

"Originally, there were buns. I saw someone sweeping the street on the road this morning. Yesterday, the rain washed the stuff onto the road, so I gave it to them to eat."

Jin Ju whispered beside him, helping the man look at the road and taking care of his bad eyesight.

Li Yi walked and talked about beekeeping.

“Those who make a living from beekeeping have to catch flowers and carry beehives wherever the flowers bloom, cutting honey while walking to exchange for money. They also need to bring a set of tools to make beehives.

They also hoped to exchange for copper coins, which would be easier to carry. However, many places harvested a lot of honey, so they could only accept silk.

They put a lot of effort into bringing silks from one place to another. In some places, the silks were abundant and of good quality, so they could exchange more in private. "

"Yes, yes, Dongzhu Li is right. My family used to keep bees, but my eyes were getting worse and worse. I wanted to find a safe place, so I ran to Jingzhao Mansion."

The man was excited, there are people who know him, how miserable his life was in the past.

"Gangrou, I understand. The silk fabrics in Jingzhao Mansion have decreased because of tax collection and the elimination of Yonghe greenhouses.

Other places are not exempt and still have to pay.

Therefore, the silk fabrics in Jingzhao Prefecture are low, and they are replenished in other places, but the price cannot be high. "

Wang Wei spoke up first and answered the previous question.

Meng Haoran continued: "Good road conditions can reduce logistics costs, which shows that building roads benefits the people."

"Mojie, Haoran, you are indeed thoughtful. It is a blessing for the people to have officials like you in the Tang Dynasty." Li Yi praised casually. UU Reading www.uuｋanshu.net

Meng Haoran and Wang Wei blushed slightly. You have already given us a hint. If you can't answer it, are you going to change our place?

Changsun Xin listened without any ripples on his face. He was used to it. If Li Yi didn't have this ability, would he dare to plot against the prime ministers?

"Li Yi, a lot of beans are planted ahead. It rained heavily yesterday. I am afraid that bean worms will fall and drown." Changsun Xin pointed to the location where soybeans were planted.

"Survival of the fittest. Only the bean worms that survive are good enough, at least they can grab the back of the leaves."

Li Yi is not worried about the decline in the number of bean worms. Instead, the ones that survived grow stronger.

Just like the elimination in nature, it is nothing more than special breeding of bean worms. The base number is large, and to some extent, it has more opportunities for evolution.

When we got there, a group of people were walking along the ridges in the bean field, looking for ladybugs. When they found them, they pinched them and threw them into straw cages, and took them back to feed the chickens.

Insects that were not bean worms were also caught. When they saw bean worms that were hit by the rain yesterday, they picked them up and fed them to the chickens together.

Li Yi took a digital camera to take photos and videos, and then took soil to save them separately, preparing to go back and test them and enter them into the computer.

The land was wet after the rain, and even if it was not good soil, it would still stick to the soles of shoes, so Li Yi did not go in.

The people who were catching insects along the ridges rolled up their trouser legs and walked barefoot.

There was a pressure well next to it, and small troughs and ditches were built with cement, otherwise a big pit would appear at the outlet of the well.

"Li Yi, you see, as long as there is enough fertilizer, the soybeans will grow well. The fertilizer sent by Lijiazhuangzi should be adjusted according to the instructions. It's a big deal."

Chang Sunxin squatted next to a bean seedling and observed it.
