The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside
Chapter 864 Beekeeping
It was still early, so Zhou Ziwen planned to go to the mountain to collect some honey and then come back to build a kiln.
By the way, I also want to see if I can tame those wild bees.
If he could tame them, he would bring back the hive and the bees.
After chatting with Chen Qiaoyi for a while and teasing Xiao Yueyue for a while, Zhou Ziwen took his tools and prepared to go out.
Although his beast taming skill is only at level three, this level is already of some use.
He might not be sure that he could tame bees, but he was sure that they would not sting him.
"Brother Ziwen, where are you going?" Chen Qiaoyi asked curiously when she saw Zhou Ziwen preparing to go out.
"I'm going to take a look at the mountain and bring back some honey." Zhou Ziwen replied with a smile.
"Then be careful not to get stung by bees." Chen Qiaoyi said with concern.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Zhou Ziwen smiled and waved his hand, then picked up the backpack and bucket that he had prepared long ago and walked towards the mountain.
The place he wanted to go was halfway up Niutou Mountain, where there was a wild beehive.
He had discovered this hive a long time ago, but he had no means to tame the bees, so he had never touched it.
Now that he plans to raise bees, this hive naturally becomes his first choice.
Zhou Ziwen walked towards the location of the hive while observing the surrounding environment.
After entering the mountain, Zhou Ziwen walked up with his head down, and soon he reached the location of the beehive.
This hive is very large, with a diameter of about one meter. There are densely packed bees flying in and out, which looks very spectacular.
Zhou Ziwen stood under the tree and observed the condition of the hive.
He found that there were a lot of bees in this hive, at least tens of thousands.
If so many bees could be tamed, we would never have enough honey.
However, it is not easy to tame so many bees.
Zhou Ziwen observed carefully for a while, and then began to harvest the honey.
The beehive was hanging on a big tree at a great distance.
Zhou Ziwen carried a backpack and a sickle on his waist and climbed to the location of the beehive easily.
When such a big person crawled near the hive, the bees inside were instantly startled.
But the bees did not attack him, they just flew in front of him and circled around him.
He has the skill of taming animals and has an inexplicable affinity for them.
If he didn't have the skills to tame animals, he would have to be fully armed before he dared to take action.
"It seems that the beast taming skill is quite powerful!"
Seeing this scene, Zhou Ziwen smiled with satisfaction.
Next, he took out his sickle and carefully cut the honey.
He moved very carefully, for fear of disturbing the bees.
Collecting honey is a technical job and you can get stung if you are not careful.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen was experienced, and in a short while, he cut a large piece of honey.
After harvesting the honey, Zhou Ziwen did not leave in a hurry, but began to try to tame the bees.
He first used some honey as bait to attract the bees' attention.
Then he began to try to communicate with the bees.
Taming animals requires talent as well as skill.
Zhou Ziwen's animal taming skill has reached level three, and he has a certain ability to tame animals.
He first communicated with the bees using his mental power, and then slowly guided them.
This process is long and boring.
Zhou Ziwen guided them patiently, and slowly he found that the bees were no longer so resistant to him.
He knew that this was a sign of successful domestication.
Zhou Ziwen was delighted and continued to guide the bees.
Time passed slowly and the sun gradually rose above our heads.
Zhou Ziwen was still communicating with the bees. This consumed a lot of his mental energy, but the effect of domestication was getting better and better.
Finally, after several hours of hard work, Zhou Ziwen successfully tamed the group of bees.
He stood up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, the next step is to take you home."
Zhou Ziwen looked at the hive and began to think about how to move it back.
The hive is very big and there are so many bees inside. It must not be easy to move it back.
It’s not that he doesn’t have enough strength, but the beehive is too big. If he is not careful and damages it, it will be terrible.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen was well prepared. He first applied some herbs on his body to avoid being stung by bees.
Then he began to carefully remove the beehive from the tree.
The process is careful and slow.
Fortunately, the bees in the hive had been tamed by him and did not attack him.
By the time he took down the beehive, it was already afternoon.
Zhou Ziwen started walking down the mountain, carrying a backpack containing a honeycomb.
"If I had known it would be so smooth, I wouldn't have to harvest the honey."
On the way back, Zhou Ziwen thought with some regret.
But there is no problem in cutting it off in advance. After all, even if he has tamed the honey, the honey still has to be cut off.
Now that we have the beehive and the bees, the next step is to consider how to place them.
After thinking about it, he decided to build a beehouse in the backyard to raise bees.
This way, you can eat honey anytime you want.
Moreover, he can take the honey to the county town to sell it and get some money.
When Zhou Ziwen returned home, Chen Qiaoyi saw him carrying a beehive and asked in surprise, "Brother Ziwen, did you bring the beehive back?"
"Yes, I plan to raise bees at home." Zhou Ziwen nodded with a smile.
"That's great. We will have endless honey to eat in the future." Chen Qiaoyi said happily.
"Yes, there will be enough honey in the future." Zhou Ziwen also agreed with a smile.
"By the way, Brother Ziwen, you haven't eaten yet! I made lunch at noon, I'll go heat it up for you."
Chen Qiaoyi said with concern.
"No need, I'll go by myself! You go look after the child." Zhou Ziwen shook his head.
Zhou Ziwen carefully placed the beehive on the open space in the backyard before going to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, there was still a lot of food left that Chen Shiying had made at noon. Zhou Ziwen heated up the food and then ate it alone in the kitchen.
After dinner, Zhou Ziwen returned to the backyard and began planning the construction of the beehive.
The construction of a beehive is not complicated. It is nothing more than nailing some wooden boards on the wall and making a door for the bees to enter and exit.
Zhou Ziwen first measured the size of the honeycomb and then marked the location of the hive on the wall.
Next, he began cutting wooden boards to make the frames for the hives.
Fortunately, he had thought about making something next and had prepared a lot of wood at home.
His technique was very skillful and in a short while, the frame of the beehive was ready.
Zhou Ziwen fixed the frame of the beehive to the wall.
After finishing the hive, he carefully placed the honeycomb in it.
The bees in the hive also seem to like this new home. They fly around in the hive and look very excited.
Zhou Ziwen looked at the bees and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, you will live here from now on."
Zhou Ziwen said to the bees.
