Chapter 2832: It Is Difficult to Teach Bees How to Use Technology
Li Longji continued to walk around, looking at local houses, farmland, poultry and livestock breeding.
This time, the subsequent fleet brought cattle and sheep, but they were not sent there. They were kept here to raise, and then they would be transported over when they raised more, or they would be transported later.
The people who stayed behind were happy and told the locals that there would be goat milk and cow milk to drink in a while and they had to take care of it.
That cow can plow about two acres of land a day, which is much better than humans.
If you were a soldier who had the strength to plow hard, eight people would pull a plow and one person would help you, and you could plow nine acres a day, but you couldn't plow like this every day.
The cows eat grass and are given some silage made from corn while working, so that the cows know that there is something delicious to eat in the cultivated land.
After hearing this, the leader waved his hand and protected the cattle and sheep. So these things just eat grass and work? Good to feed.
Li Longji wandered around, followed by a group of people around him.
"Looking at the folk customs, it is indeed different. This is a stone house, and this one is made of wood. It is erected to prevent excessive water from washing the house during the rainy season."
Li Longji saw two types of houses. There was a lot of volcanic rock in the area, so the volcanic rocks were used to build the house. Some things had to be kept in the wooden house. The wood cut before could be used to build the house.
Someone is building boats at the door. The boats are placed on the ground, and some are erected. They are not boats made of a piece of wood with a hollow middle.
They use iron nails and gum adhesives, but not rubber, unless special treatment is required, which requires technical support.
There are many large pits dug into the coal piles that look like hills. The pits are not deep. After the coal is transported, it is poured in and water is poured in. They wash the coal there.
Use a sieve to take out the coal, and then sort the gangue. The coal slime inside is taken out and beaten into briquettes for them to cook outside.
The washed coal was naturally used by Datang's steam engines and ships, but they themselves were reluctant to part with it.
"Teach the skills that can be taught." Li Longji took a child's hand and looked at the coal-black color in the gaps between the nails.
"The technology of rubber gloves cannot be taught. There is no problem in the Li Family Zhuangzi of the Tang Dynasty. They need to use other things, such as gasoline. The Zhuangzi is making it and transporting it to them.
As for other technologies, they also require a foundation, especially industrial equipment, which is prone to accidents.
Teach them... to keep bees! Bring our bees over and raise them for them.
There are local bees here, but they are not easy to raise. Some even attack other creatures and even eat meat.
Our Chinese honeybees can resist it, unlike the bees on the other side near the Antarctic, which are not as difficult to defend against. "
Li Yi thought a lot before he came up with this idea to raise Chinese giant bees, which happens to be where sunflowers grow.
There are sunflower seeds, the temperature is suitable, and bees can be collected to collect honey.
"Sure, when we get home, we'll send an aircraft carrier fleet over to see if there's anything else we need to send."
Li Longji agreed, just give him help, otherwise if you say what you say, the locals next to you will listen, and there is nothing you can do, which would be embarrassing.
"Dr. Li, if the bees you mentioned let us plant sunflowers, will the sunflowers be eaten?"
The leader was worried, thinking that the bees that would be sent in the future would eat the sunflowers.
"The more bees there are, the better the sunflowers will grow. The bees on the other side of the Tang Dynasty are less harmful to people when they sting, unlike here, which can sting people to death."
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. Bees don't eat sunflower seeds. They only collect nectar for pollination and are less toxic."
The Chinese giant bees are very cute. If you don't take the initiative to provoke them, they won't attack them. Each one will grow chubby.
If you go to the countryside to buy cakes, cut candies, fruits, etc., you will encounter many bees flying there, landing and eating, which proves that the products of this company are good.
The key point is that they are different from flies. When flies bite something, they don’t want to buy it, but bees do it casually.
"What are we going to do?" The leader smiled.
"I will teach you later. You must make beehives first. Then everyone will have honey to eat and can also cure diseases."
Li Yi said, greedy, and glanced at Ling Sansan.
"What are you doing?" Ling Sansan can't read minds.
"Let the ship bring honey over for everyone to try." Li Yi ordered.
"Okay! There is a lot of honey on the ship, so it's okay to drink honey water."
The little robot's light flashed, proving that it was sending a message.
Honey was delivered, and other people could only drink water made with honey. Important figures such as children and leaders tasted honey.
They had eaten honey and risked their lives to follow wild bees to snatch it from their homes. Eating honey after being stung was the sweetness in pain, which was unforgettable.
"Bees with this kind of honey basically don't sting. If they sting...you need to remove the bee stinger and wash it with soapy water."
Li Yi said while watching others eat, he didn't want to eat because it was hot.
The people actually don't care whether they eat or not. They are happy. Only the children stare at the food and put pine nuts in their pockets.
Li Longji walked around, preparing lunch over there. If we stay here today, we have to carry a lot of things on the boat.
The shed was put up first. The sun was too strong and there was a shed locally. They also liked to eat together under the shed on the beach.
Other people are already moving goods. Fortunately, the pier here has been repaired, and there are ten hovercrafts helping to transport them to ships at sea.
Lunch is barbecue, barbecue, and green corn as the staple food. The leader and a few people accompany him to drink. Others don't drink. They have to continue working after eating.
Li Yi was in charge of grilling skewers. When he saw the coal bill delivered, he said: "..."
He took a deep breath: "Do you use this to bake?"
"I've baked it several times. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net This fire is good, but the smoke is a bit thicker." The leader nodded.
"Don't use coal to grill in the future, use charcoal. I'll teach you how to make charcoal. You can even grill with open fire."
Li Yi actually wanted to say, how come you didn't die? This is the first time I've seen people grill with coal.
Can coal be used to grill things? Of course it can, but it must be a vertical furnace with a chimney, so you can't see the smoke. You can grill with a grate on top. How can you put coal on this grill?
"No need for coal, got it." The leader obviously saw the seriousness of the situation. He was also afraid of death.
The coal blocks were removed and replaced with charcoal, which was on the ship. There was not so much charcoal stewed locally, and there was a loophole in logistics.
The raw charcoal was lit and it would be grilled in a while. Li Yi put out a fan and a spray bottle of vinegar and water.
The skewers are pierced by bamboo sticks. Once an open flame is started, the sticks will be burned first, unless the sticks are soaked in water in advance.
If you don't soak it, just fan it out when you see the open flame. The disadvantage is that the charcoal ash will stick to the skewers. You can either spray it with water mixed with vinegar to extinguish the fire, and the taste of the vinegar will not affect the taste of the skewers.
Meat is fish meat, look at the fat and leanness, if it is pork belly, it is normal to roast, but it is lean, so it must be rubbed with extra oil, otherwise it will be brittle on the outside and not cooked on the inside.
It is different if it is a big fish roasted on a rack, you can cut the meat while roasting, just like roasting lamb on the grassland.
Li Yi is responsible for a group of people. He once again performed the fan roasting method and turned the bundle back.
"Watching brother Yi roast skewers, it is really enjoyable." Li Longji waited and praised.
Song Jing and his gang nodded, yes, Xiao Yi did it himself, ordinary people can't eat it at all, just to give us face.
The leader opened his eyes wide and wanted to learn. There are nearly 200 skewers, right? Turn it over, turn it over again... (To be continued.)
