Chapter 269: The Wild Bee Returns to the Hive

Fat man's cigarettes have a good effect, originally, sandalwood works best, but you can't buy them until you go to the county, so you can only use cigarettes instead.

The bee colony gradually began to move, slowly moving into the hat nest, and estimated the situation, the queen bee must have crawled over first. Old Wu Tou felt that the straw hat in his hand was getting heavier and heavier, and the inside of the hat socket was gradually full, and bees had begun to crawl on the brim.

"Get the beehives!" Old Wu Tou hurriedly shouted.

The old medicine below and the car boss worked together to lift the beehive, and the lid of the beehive had been opened. Old Wu took his hood and buttoned it in. Lao Yaozi and the car boss hurriedly put the beehive on the ground and flashed to the side, where there was already a swarm of black bees stirring.

"Take the straw hat off!" Old Wu was anxious and shouted above.

"Go down and get it." The fat man put Lao Wu's head on the ground, only to see a layer of bees lying on top of the straw hat, and he couldn't see the original texture at all, and turned into a straw hat-shaped beehive.

Old Wu Tou naturally didn't dare to stretch out his hand, and in the end, Xiao Qiqi slowly stretched it over, gently picked up the straw hat, and then closed the beehive cover.

Wild bees immediately circled around the hive, and some found a small opening underneath, and crawled in from there, and soon, more and more bees entered.

The smile on Lao Wutou's face became thicker and thicker: "It's almost, wait for the bee colony to go in, block the exit, and it will be completed." โ€

However, he was obviously a little early in his joy, and saw that a large number of bees began to climb out of the exit, and then flew back to the big tree, and after a while, the original bee cluster formed again, and the inside of the beehive was obviously empty.

Old Wu Tou opened the beehive angrily, took out a piece of the nest spleen and looked at it, and sure enough, there was not a single bee on it.

"This wild bee recognizes the original nest, and the original nest spleen in this beehive, and the queen bee can't look at it." Old Wu Tou sighed and had no claim.

"I don't want a new home, but I don't want them!" The fat man rolled up his arms and sleeves, his mouth was indignant, but looking at the big bee cluster on the tree, he quickly put down his sleeves again.

"It seems that I have to use my tricks." Old Wu Tou looked resolute, obviously unwilling to admit defeat,

The fat man coughed lightly: "What, Wu Lao, how many tricks do you have, that one just now doesn't seem to be very effective." โ€

Old Wu Tou glared at him viciously: "Fat man, you lift the big stone on the beehive, we cut off the spleen of the nest inside, and then tie it to the wooden frame inside the beehive, which is equivalent to moving the nest for them, and it will definitely be done." โ€

Qiqi was a little worried: "Grandpa Wu, what if the bees refuse to return to their nests again?" โ€

"Success, not failure." Old Wu Tou has a bit of a posture of becoming a benevolent if he is unsuccessful.

The fat man also felt that this method was feasible, so he grabbed the boulder on the hive with both hands, exerted his divine strength, and slowly lifted it up.

The boulder really has three or four hundred catties, that is, the fat man is as strong as a cow, and he really can't move it if he is replaced by others. As the big boulder was lifted higher and higher, Qiqi, who was squatting on the ground, shouted, "See! โ€

Lao Wu Tou also hurriedly squatted down and looked under the big stone, dense, all rows of nests, some of the color was sallow, which was more old, and some of the color was white, which was newly built last year or this year.

The top of the nest is full of small honeycombs, all of which are in a regular hexagonal shape, one after another, densely packed, like a beautiful building.

These are all built with beeswax secreted by bees, and the wonders of nature are also reflected in bees, who have not learned geometry, but are able to create such a standardized and huge geometric shape.

The car boss and the old medicine man helped the fat man, carefully turned the big stone over, and then Qiqi jumped over, put his little finger into a hexagon, dipped it gently, and then put it in his mouth and sucked it: "It's so sweet!" โ€

The fat man was a little greedy, and he also wanted to taste the taste of honey, but his fingers were too thin, so he asked Qiqi to dip it again, and then he also took a sip, and a trace of sticky, sweet honey touched the tip of the fat man's tongue, and the sweetness revealed a fragrance, and it was really the best honey.

"Fatty, hurry up and work, don't be like a child." Old Wu Tou took out a knife and began to cut the nest spleen on the stone, and then the car boss and Lao Yaozi took the wooden frame in the original beehive, removed the nest spleen on it, and tied the newly cut one to it.

The fat man also smiled and took the small string, tied the nest spleen to the wooden frame, and cut off the excess with a knife. The lack is almost like that, and after a few days, it will be filled by bees.

In addition, the border part will also be connected by bees, and at that time, the rope can be removed.

Several people worked together, and the progress was fast. Gradually, the fat man found out that there are several kinds of nest spleen, some of which have turned black, obviously for a long time, the old medicine specially collects such nest spleen corners, saying that it can be used in medicine.

Most of the meshes are relatively small and are where the worker bees live; There are two pieces of nest spleen with larger mesh, and the old Wu Tou said that this is where the drones stay, and they are slightly larger than the average worker bee.

One of them was directly thrown aside by Lao Wu Tou: "It's useless to have too many drones, just eat and don't work, just leave less." โ€

The fat man secretly snickered: It seems that it is the same at all times, and you have to have some skills to survive.

In addition, there are two pieces that are specially designed to breed larvae, and there are white bee pupae wriggling in the mesh. According to Lao Yaozi, this thing is also a great tonic, because the larvae also need to be fed royal jelly during the growth process.

There are a total of ten nest frames in the beehive, and eight of them are tied, and the rest is just used when the bee colony grows. According to Lao Wu Tou's estimates, the number of this group of bees should be more than 30,000.

After the busy work, several people are sweating profusely, because they have no experience, so the nest spleen is not very standardized, barely able to fit into the beehive, as for the later beautification work, can only be handed over to the bees themselves to complete.

Old Wu wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said confidently: "Let's try again, if we don't succeed this time, this bee won't need to be raised!" โ€

So, the fat man had to be aggrieved and aggrieved again, and Lao Wu Tou used a straw hat to collect bees again. The car boss and the old medicine simply put the beehive on their shoulders and were ready at any time.

"It's down!" Old Wu shouted, the straw hat shook into the hive, and then closed the hive cover. The car boss and the old medicine man put the beehive on the ground, and except for Qiqi, everyone else retreated to the outside of the three zhang.

Sure enough, this time the bee colony only entered and could not leave, and soon, the bee colony on the tree disappeared completely, and Lao Wutou's "moving the nest" plan was a complete success.

The opening of the beehive was first sealed with a gauze net, and several people were smiling and laughing at each other. It's really not easy, but a group of wild bees were successfully transferred to the beehive, in addition to the old Wu Tou's good command, Qiqi played a huge role, worthy of being the "captain" of this team.

"When the honey is stirred, the first one will be given to Kiki!" Old Wu Tou also highly praised Qiqi's role.

The fat man scratched his brain: "Wu Lao, a box of bees, how many catties of honey can be produced in a year?" โ€

"If the year is good and the honey source is sufficient, there can be almost 180 catties, and the bees themselves can't eat much, mainly for the beekeepers to harvest." Old Wu asked the fat man to pick up the beehive again, and continued to look for the next target, the two beehives must collect two nests of bees.

The fat man sighed: "After picking a hundred flowers into honey, for whom it is sweet for whom it works, this bee is really a good thing - hehe, what, honey is also a good thing." โ€

"Steadily, don't shake the beehives and stun the bees!" Old Wu couldn't help but reprimand the fat man, but the latter just made a few hehes and didn't care at all.

Under Kiki's tracking, he soon found another beehive, but it was in a tree, so he had to give up, because when everyone came, they didn't bring a saw, they couldn't open the hive, and they couldn't carry out the nest plan.

After searching for several in a row, they found a bee colony that had built a nest in the stone pile, and everyone concocted the same method and included this group of wild bees in the beehive.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, everyone returned to the chicken farm, and two boxes of bees were temporarily placed in front of the house for easy care. Now that the bee colony has just been transferred, it needs to be stabilized for two or three days, and the honey in it is enough for them to consume.

Because the original nest was moved, there is no need to worry about the queen bee escaping. Now we are about to enter the most prosperous period of the bee colony, the queen bee can lay more than 1,000 eggs every day, and the number of bee colonies will increase rapidly, and the growth is just around the corner.

The fat man went home and took it out in Floating Astronomy, and the worker bees couldn't wait to fly out to work. They didn't fly away immediately, but circled around the beehive first, and it seemed that they also knew that they had changed their new home, so they would remember it first, so as not to get lost in the future.

The two beehives are separated by a few feet of each other, and the mouth of the bee is also facing to one side, so as not to cause a fire between the two bees. In order to avoid the recurrence of the previous tragedy, Lao Wu invited Qiqi to take charge in person, which should be foolproof.

The bee colony gradually flew into the orchard, and then began to be busy, nervous and orderly, looking at this meaning, they were more satisfied with this new home, and when they entered the beehive, the honey sticks on their legs were full of two yellow honey balls.

Old Wu Tou looked at Hehe Zhile and said to the fat man next to him: "If it goes on like this, it won't take more than a month to stir honey."

The fat man smacked his lips: "The sooner the better, everyone is waiting to eat honey." Two days ago, I took it home and gave it a little nest spleen, and I heard Uncle Yaozi say that it also has a tonic effect. Before it was processed, it was called stupid and gnawed. โ€

Old Wu's eyes were slitted with a smile: "Fatty, wait for me to ask Erzhuzi to make a few more beehives, and one day we will go up the mountain to end a few nests?" โ€

The fat man glanced at Qiqi, who was playing with a few bumblebees, and then shook his head: "It's better for you to breed slowly, after all, this matter is full of suspense, and if there is danger, it will be troublesome." โ€

Old Wu Tou also nodded, dispelling the idea that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants.

The fat man pulled Kiki and went home full of longing, and as soon as he entered the door, Clumsy circled him, sniffing at the fat man's body.

"There's no honey!" The fat man raised his arms helplessly, secretly worried in his heart: Even if there is honey in the future, he can't take anything home.
