In my days as a farmer

It may be that relying on the sixth sense of the little animals to detect the crackling little abacus of the black-hearted landlord, when Xia Dongli brought the beehive back, the little bees who settled in the kennel showed full vigilance Even if Xia Dongli sprayed honey water on the door of the new house, the little bees were unwilling to go in.

In the end, Xia Dongli and Xun Ao could only move them forcibly according to the skills of changing nests in the video teaching.However, since the purchased equipment has not yet arrived, Xia Dongli and Xun Ao can only put on their own DIY anti-bee equipment to operate.Mosquito nets, bamboo hats, denim jackets, work gloves, and rubber gloves provide good protection, and neither of them got stung.

The whole change process was relatively smooth.Surprisingly, it was less than a day before the bees moved in, and they had already built a small hive vertically in the kennel, and the efficiency of the decoration was enough to impress most decoration teams.

Because of the structure of the kennel, the honeycomb was glued to the roof and vertically downward, which also caused Xia Dongli to steal the bee colony directly when he opened the kennel.And because of his careless actions, he even spilled a few drops of honey from the hive.

The construction of the hive is so ingenious that these natural architects build the nest so that the opening slopes upward at a fixed angle.This angle can make the honey stored in it not easy to spill and make it easy for the bees to eat. It is completely customized according to the habits of the bees in the nest, which is extremely delicate.But Xia Dongli didn't know that there was honey in it when he opened the lid, so he didn't pay attention to it, which caused a tragedy.

He never imagined that the bee's new home actually hides honey.

It needs to be mentioned here that the nectar retrieved by bees needs to be fermented and evaporated before it can be turned into honey. This process takes about seven days, and it is all completed in the bees' bodies and in the process of passing each other.Only after the nectar has been completely turned into high-quality, highly concentrated honey, the bees spit it into the nest.

And they only moved for one day, so the honey in these hives could only be rations brought from their hometown.

Xia Dongli, who accidentally overturned his rations, was shocked. He looked at the fragrant honeycomb and gritted his teeth after a struggle, "Let's put it in."

He silently recited sustainable development several times, and overcame his appetite with strong willpower, but the specific operation was left to Xun Yao.Xia Dongli couldn't stand the sweet smell of honey and the sticky amber-like golden color. He was afraid that he would suck his finger on the spot, which would be too embarrassing.

It’s not because he’s greedy. Comrade Xiao Xia has also eaten a lot of good things. He has eaten everything from the civilian product Guan X Yuan to the very popular Mac X Card, but the taste of commercial honey is very similar, and all of them are concentrated honey. sweet fragrance.

The scent of fresh honey is sweet with a floral scent, and due to the feeding characteristics of the bees, the scent of the nectar is a mixture of various flowering plants, like a garden after the rain, refreshing and mild.

It smells good, it smells really good!

Xia Dongli took a few deep breaths, and suddenly he was able to understand Xiaokang's behavior of stealing honey. The yearning for sweets is a biological instinct, especially such high-quality honey, who can resist it?

Unlike Xia Dongli, who was shocked, Xun Yu didn't say anything, but his willpower was still very firm. Even if he cut off the honeycomb with a fruit knife, the fragrance of the flowers became stronger, even if the honeycomb was squeezed when he pinched the honeycomb and put it on the plate. After pressing it made a sticky and moving sound, he still calmly stuffed the hive into the new hive, and then closed the door neatly.

According to the habits of bees, this part of the hive will definitely not be used again, but the honey stored in it can still be used as a food reserve during decoration.

In order to express his apology, Xia Dongli went downstairs and poured a small dish of honey water into the beehive.

The reason why he used honey water instead of just pouring the honey was that while he was working on this, he saw a few bees go to suck the honey that was inadvertently dripping, and then...their JIO got stuck!

That's right, the bee's feet were actually stuck to the honey!Moreover, during the fierce struggle, the wings of another bee were also stuck to the ground. Seeing that the bee was unstable and about to be drowned and suffocated to death by the honey he made, Xia Dongli hurriedly smothered the bee. It picked it out, and carefully washed its body with clean water dripping on it.

The bee that fell into the homemade sweet trap was slowed down for more than ten minutes before reeling and flying again.

There are some things that I would never have imagined unless I experienced them myself. Xia Dongli felt that he might have discovered the important reason why bees build hives to store honey, embarrassing.

The beehives built by the old master at Brother Hu are traditional beehives. Several slabs can be placed in a row. Now the bee colony that has been relocated is not large, and it doesn’t look crowded after putting in two small bowls.Xia Dongli rolled his eyes, and under Xun Yu's strange gaze, he stuffed the little snowman's surveillance camera into it.

By the way, Xia Dongli bought several more after the Xiaobae stealing incident because the Xiaoxueman monitor is so easy to use.In order to facilitate the switching of monitoring angles, they are also numbered respectively, and the one that is stuffed in now is Little Snowman No. 3.

No. 3 is an upgraded model. Although the battery capacity remains the same, the night vision function is more powerful. It claims to be able to clearly capture small animals even in a completely dark environment.Xia Dongli tried it in bed, and the effect was outstanding.

"I'm just worried that they won't live happily..." The unscrupulous landlord who installed the probe in the tenant's home touched his nose with some guilt, then turned on his phone and opened the APP to watch the panoramic record of the house built by the little bees with great interest.

Although this scene is the ultimate for patients with intensive phobia and insect phobia, for Xia Dongli, who is looking forward to honey very much, his whole body is filled with the pleasure of reading infrastructure articles.

It was already evening when the bees in the kennel were notified by the fir box bee colony to move into the beehive collectively.After dinner, the two moved the beehive to the only place on the roof where they could avoid direct sunlight while the bees were resting at night.

Individual bees are temperature-changing animals, but when they gather together, they can have a constant temperature through the power of the group.If the temperature is too high, they will flap their wings to fan the wind, and if the temperature is too low, they will huddle together to keep warm, but this process consumes a lot of energy. In order to replenish energy, they will eat honey.

This kind of behavior is not cost-effective for the landlord who is waiting to collect the rent, so the two want to provide the most suitable living environment for the bee colony as much as possible to reduce the loss of honey. It can be said that they are black-hearted capitalists.

After removing the sealed box, the two moved the kennel down.

The little pottery beast that had suffered from unwarranted disasters was finally released. Xia Dongli licked the head of the little pottery beast that had suffered several times from unrestrained disasters, feeling a little sticky.

Cough, it seems that I have to give it a bath first... The cage should also be cleaned. If the smell of honey is left, it is likely to attract the bee colony to move again, and then it will be a lot of trouble.

In order to prevent this tragedy, the kennel may have to be put down for a few days, and then put up after the bee colony has settled.

"By the way, isn't the little Tao beast a bit faded?" Xia Dongli looked at it and said to Xun Yao, "Shall we color it?"

The color on the little pottery beast itself is just the coloring of pigments, without being fired to fix the color, it is not very durable.Moreover, since its birth, catastrophes and disasters have continued, and the final result has to be washed with water, and even brushed. What they bought was children's toys, and they used non-toxic dyes known as plant dyes.

The biggest disadvantage of grass and wood dyeing is that it is difficult to fix the color. How can it stand the current devastation? It is not obvious when it is placed in the kennel. Now, half of the original round eyes of the little pottery beast have faded and turned into crescent eyes. At first glance It feels like being wronged and drooping eyelids, very pitiful.

Xun Yao glanced at the pottery beast in Xia Dongli's hand with a subtle expression.However, after dinner, he still opened the small box, and took a paintbrush slowly to repaint the pottery beasts that had been scrubbed and washed.

The TV in the living room was playing current affairs news. Xia Dongli was sitting in front of him with his mobile phone in his hands. He tied a ball of wool to his slippers and swung his legs back and forth while looking at the mobile phone. He could not only exercise but also tease his energetic grandma Dogs kill two birds with one stone.

As long as it is a dog, there is a natural love for chasing. Although Xia Dongli's target is the milk dog at home, Rice and the three-headed dog are all lying on the ground, and the two dogs are staring at the ball of wool with piercing eyes. When the rice grains were leaking, they still showed the appearance of wanting to mend the leak.

The two Wangs looked at the rice grains even with a bit of hatred for iron and steel, and the rice slapped the ground with its paws, as if to say, "How could you miss such a simple ball?" It was heartbreaking. .

Compared with them, Xiaokang and Xiaobaa were much calmer. Because the cage had not been repaired, these two were also brought indoors.Xiaokang lay on the ground and squinted his eyes to watch TV, while Xiaobaa was rubbing against the door frame with the horns that had grown small sprouts—it was inevitable that his head would itch when the horns were just stretched out. Seeing that Xiaobaa was not causing trouble Xia Dongli let it go.

The living room of Xia Dongli's house hasn't been this lively for a long time since the beginning of summer. Everyone usually sleeps outside, but apart from the excitement... Well, it inevitably has a subtle smell.

Xia Dongli endured it, and after Xiaobaa released the third gas bomb, he still couldn't hold it back. He stood up and silently turned on the electric fan to promote air circulation, then put away the ball of wool, in the cub's Amidst the protest, he also threw a bouncy ball to a few dogs, and finally sat down next to Xun Yao——Xun Yao sat near the inner side, where the power of Xiaobaa's gas bombs could not reach.

Xun Yao glanced at him, and the two exchanged a knowing smile, and then Xia Dongli shrank his legs and continued to watch the memoir of the hive.The probe with infrared night vision function captured all the movements of the bees. He watched them with great interest and regained the fun of observing silkworm babies when he was a child.

Bees can't see anything at night, but it's amazing how they can still work in the dark.It has only been a few hours since the move, and a small grid of beeswax nests has appeared in the box.

He couldn't help but click on Taobao to look at the beekeeping accessories he bought, and felt that if the express delivery didn't come, they might not be useful.

"At this time, I miss city life a little bit." Xia Dongli cut a few pictures and said to Xun Yu while posting to Moments, "It used to be very convenient to buy things in the city. Everything you bought would arrive the next day. The key is free shipping. of."

But when we arrived in Xiaojin Village, the freight was expensive, and the express delivery was still slow.Although he bribed the delivery point several times with chocolates and snacks, there were often missing parts.

Later, he developed the habit of checking whether the courier had arrived at the station when he had nothing to do.

Xun Yao's coloring action paused, and he lowered his eyes and did not answer, but after a while, Xia Dongli found that he had picked up the clay again.

Xia Dongli just turned his head and glanced, and was about to ask him what he was going to do when his phone flashed, and his friend sent a video invitation.

Oh oh oh! !He must have come to discuss the little bee with him!Xia Dongli was immediately distracted. He picked up the phone, and Lao Xu's clean and gentle face appeared on the screen. He seemed to be staying in a small space, and his eyesight kept wandering until he found that the screen was bright. I just looked over.

"Dongli~" Old Xu turned his voice three times, making Xia Dongli's hairs explode.Xia Dongli immediately moved the phone away tactically, distanced the distance between the two parties, and asked very vigilantly: "What are you doing? Don't be nasty! Tell me what you have to say."

"Hi, brother, I'm asking you to do something." Old Xu lowered his voice and said cautiously, "Do you still remember the Ganoderma lucidum spore powder you put in when you cooked for me?"

What the hell?When did I let that go?Xia Dongli showed a hesitant expression, and Xun Ao beside him reminded him of the key words: "Feather—"

"Ah—ah!" Xia Dongli patted the table, his face suddenly enlightened, "Is it spore powder? What's wrong with our specialty product?"

Old Xu was always vigilant about the people around him, so he didn't notice Xia Dongli's guilty look. He whispered to his friend, "Can you buy this? Can you get a purchasing agent?"

Xia Dongli was shocked: "You relapsed?"

"No!" Old Xu denied sharply, "It's not me, you know, I have a friend... No, don't look at me like that, it's really my friend! If I post it, can I hide it from you?"

"Recently, I found that he was a little restless, and he still refused to accompany me to eat hot pot. He also watched me hesitate and hesitate to speak when he was making skewers, which was very contrary to his usual image of a big iron-blooded devil. I think he might I also got this disease. Let’s think about it, I haven’t eaten anything special here, I just wonder if it’s the effect of this thing... Ah, by the way, bring me some of your sesame paste, this I'm hungry."

"Oh..." Xia Dongli's enthusiasm immediately dropped by ten percentage points, and he scratched his cheek, "No, Lao Xu, the spore powder can increase the resistance, it doesn't have this effect..."

"I don't care!" Old Comrade Xu went to the doctor in a hurry, "Anyway, you can help me to ask if it's for sale! There's no harm in eating this stuff, isn't it?"

There is no harm, the problem is that he has no reliable purchase channels.Xia Dongli raised his forehead and tried to explain: "I bought it directly from the farmer. You know, the things from the farmer are no cleaner than commercialization..."

"Hey, you don't get sick if you don't work and eat." Old Xu didn't care, "Just ask me the price. Don't worry, I entrusted you to bring the things. recognize."

"That's what you said!" Xia Dongli clapped his hands. He felt something touching his feet. He lowered his head to meet a pig's face, and immediately turned the camera.Old Xu was still saying, "No, at least get a sealed bag, don't make plastic bags, that's too unhygienic." The next second, he yelled at Xiaokang's son over and over again.

Xia Dongli put the mobile phone on the bracket to let one person and one pig video, then touched his chin and thought, it seems that it is time to check the inventory of barley worms.
