Honey, no matter in any world, is considered a luxury, honey is a variety of nectar in the hive at a certain temperature, brewed for a certain period of time is honey, as for artificial feeding, most of them are bee sugar, can only be said to be a supplement of sugar.

Luo Heng hurriedly ran over and saw that inside the hollow of the sawn tree, there were dense black bees, but the temperature was very low, and some bees were already frozen.

"Leather bag, give me a leather bag. Luo Heng shouted.

Raising bees, Luo Heng still knows it, because as a special soldier in survival training, if there is honey in the wild, it is simply a big luck.

The feeding of honey is actually very simple, after the leather bag was brought, Luo Heng asked a dwarf to open the leather bag, made a small brush from some branches of his own, and then broke off a piece of beehive, and then shook it vigorously, and the bees on the hive fell into the leather bag.

Then there is a small amount of the hive that is gently swept with a twig, and the hive is set aside.

"Cool. The brown honey on his hand, Luo Heng licked it~ and applauded loudly.

Luo Heng moved quickly, and kept taking it out piece by piece, and finally Luo Heng saw the queen bee, but the queen bee in winter does not lay eggs, and her belly is much smaller, but it is also bigger than others.

In ten minutes, Luo Heng cleaned up the beehive in the tree hole, and estimated that there were almost seventy or eighty catties of honey, which was also thanks to the fact that it was on the tree.

The bees in the leather bag all gathered together, and Luo Heng blocked the mouth of the leather bag with a handful of branches, and then tied it tightly.

"Your Excellency, are you going to feed these bees?" asked a dwarven knight.

"Yes, I'm going to feed some bees. Luo Heng nodded, Luo Heng didn't know what the flowering period of the plants here was, if there were more flowering plants, he could feed more.

In fact, the yield of honey is very unstable, when one barrel, maybe twenty catties a year, but if you feed three or five more barrels, you may have to lose money.

This is because the bees have such a large nectar source area, one bucket may be more than enough, but two buckets may be reduced, because you can't ignore the basic consumption of each colony in a year.

And the nectar is not said to be in flowering, there is no rain, there is no wind, the temperature changes too much, it is very simple, the fragrance of flowers has nectar, not the kind of smell that comes closer, it can be smelled from afar, there is, as for the honey to sell after a few months of rain in a row, it is absolutely fake, bees are the same as people, do not go out to work, eat the old book, where may generate profits.

"Tsk. The dwarven knight sighed that bee farming is a highly skilled profession that is popular everywhere.

Luo Heng brought the honey and the bees and rushed back, as for cutting down the trees, just hand them over to the others.

There is no need to rely on other people, Luo Heng himself is ready to prepare for beekeeping, first of all, to implement standardized frame breeding, which is conducive to the output of honey.

Because the hive is also transformed by bees eating honey, a hive can be used for three years, after three years, it is not that it cannot be used, but can only be placed on the periphery to store honey, the hole on the hive will be small in three years, if it is not replaced, the bee will be small, and the hole of the hive will become smaller, mainly because every time the bee is born, there will be a layer of film left, and it will be small over time.

Wooden boxes, then wooden frames, drill holes on the left and right sides of the wooden frames, and then tighten them with wire.

"Forgot to make a honey shaker. Luo Heng slapped his forehead, and then hurriedly made a wooden barrel.

The barrel is ready-made, install a wooden block with a small ~ hole in the depression directly at the bottom, and then order a horizontal shelf on the top, the middle is the place to put the honeycomb, and then a handle sticks out of the barrel.

"Huh. "Luo Heng just started making beehives, Jon came over, no way, Luo Heng brought too many surprises, what Jon wanted to know most was what Luo Heng shot the dwarf musket of the snow wolf was like, but Luo Heng would not study these guys.

The hive itself comes back and is placed inside the tent with a certain temperature.

Luo Heng cut the honeycomb and put it on the shelf of the honey shaker, and then rotated the handle, and the honey that had crystallized melted at the temperature inside the tent.

Jon's eyes lit up when he saw the honey that was thrown out, and the Jon family had their own apiary, and every time they took honey, they were squeezed and crushed.

Soon, the honey shaker was full, Luo Heng poured out the honey, and then continued, but also left a hive of more than a dozen catties of honey.

When Luo Heng fixed the hive on the nest frame of the wire, Jon immediately understood.

"It's ....... This change Jon knew at a glance that it would be too easy to get honey in the future.

After Luo Heng fixed the hive, he melted some beehives and used beeswax to glue the hive between the hive and the wooden frame, and there was a large empty piece in the bellows.

Luo Heng took the beehive and the leather bag outside, waited for a few minutes, let the bees be numb from the cold, and then poured the bees inside the leather bag into the beehive.

Cover with a thick cloth, close the lid, close the peak door, and put the beehive into the attic of the granary.

The rest of the honeycomb Luo Heng directly extracted the beeswax, that is, after melting, it was packed and squeezed in a cloth bag.

"It's the best beeswax. Jon spoke.

"Hmm. Luo Heng nodded.

Beeswax, propolis, royal jelly, pollen, are all high value-added things.

"Is your beekeeping method registered with the Wizards' Guild?" Jon asked.

"I don't think the benefits are big, right?" Luo Heng asked suspiciously.

"Do you know how much a beekeeping farm costs each year, and how much is a pound of top-grade nectar?" Jon asked.

"Then sign up. Luo Heng shrugged.

Luo Heng felt that this magician union was simply a scientific research institution, as long as you never had the knowledge, including all kinds of tools and machinery, you can register in it, and if someone uses the same method in the future, the magician union will charge a fee, and there is no term, that is, there will be income every year, of course, this fee will be a certain share of the magician union.

"For this income alone, you earn more per year than many of the little nobles. Jon knew that this easy-to-manage method of beekeeping would certainly be used by many apikeries.

"Ahem, I also know how to extract royal jelly. Luo Heng couldn't help but pretend to be a force.

"What?" Jon was born in a big noble, but he knew that royal jelly, that thing was simply too rare, and it was several times the price of gold when it came to buying and selling, mainly because it was too difficult to extract.

"Hey, hey. Of course Luo Heng knows the method of taking royal jelly, to put it bluntly, it is worthless, but the knowledge of this world is watery.

Jon saw Luo Heng collect the honey and give it to Alicia, who was waiting on the side, and asked, "How much is the annual production?"

"About 2,000 grams. Luo Heng estimated.

"That's not a lot. Jon was disappointed when he heard this.

"I mean, I'm a bucket like that. Luo Heng added.

When Jon heard this, his eyes widened, and he asked, "Cheney, do you know how much a gram of royal jelly costs?"

"How much?" Luo Heng decided to go to the lumberyard again, in case there were other good things.

"One gram is basically two gold coins, and royal jelly is one of the main ingredients of high-grade magic potions, mainly used to heal mental wounds. Jon spoke.

When Luo Heng heard this, his eyes also popped out: "I~ just open an apiary." ”

“......。 Jon was speechless when he saw Luo Heng like this, as far as your forging level is concerned, there is no shortage of money to spend.

"Actually, if I want to get royal jelly, I can do it now. Luo Heng looked at Jon and said.

"Fifty thousand gold coins....... Jon didn't believe it when he heard this, but Jon had lost confidence in his judgment and spoke.

"Ahem, I think this kind of thing should also be registered, after all, it is for magicians, and the better this kind of thing is, the more it can serve magicians. Luo Heng said.

"One hundred thousand, just one year, you can register, but there is a one-year confidentiality period. "Jon's breath is getting short, can you produce royal jelly in winter?

Wouldn't that mean that it can be produced all year round, which is simply unimaginable.

Luo Heng scratched his head, feeling a little troublesome, he didn't expect that he wanted to eat a little honey, and he actually made a big business of 100,000 gold coins.

"Oh well. Luo Heng felt that the temptation of 100,000 gold coins ~ was too great.

The first is to build a greenhouse, about 20 square meters is enough, directly built in the tent area, wooden house.

There were many windows, but they were not large, and then they were covered with white cloth, and these were left to the carpenter.

Luo Heng was sitting on the king board, like a fence, so that the bees could pass through, and then the queen bee couldn't, this was a meticulous job that took two days.

Then there is a beehive without a bottom, called the relay box, that is, continue to add a layer on the beehive, there is a king plate in the middle, large-scale breeding is to put the honeycomb containing sugar on the king board, the king plate below the breeding, honey is also convenient, the queen bee belly is large, accidentally hit the trouble.

The most important thing is to take the royal jelly of the royal platform, Luo Heng also did it himself, that is, he drilled holes in the wooden strips, one after another, four rows of holes, each row of more than forty.

Jon followed, and every thing was made, Jon would measure it and record it one by one, and of course the contract had been signed.

After five days, the greenhouse was set up, with a thin white cloth coated with a layer of transparent wood glue, which became a little stiff, but not damaged by the wind.

Luo Heng put the beehive into the greenhouse, and the door of the greenhouse was designed with a compartment.

Beehives, partition boards, relay boxes, and inside the relay box is a honeycomb frame, and then Luo Heng took out a wooden basin, and then poured honey water, and it was done.

The next day, Luo Heng came in to check and found that many bees had flown out and were sucking honey water in the wooden basin.

Day 3, Day 4, Day 5.

On the seventh day, Luo Heng and Jon put on protective equipment, opened the relay box and the king partition board, and found that the queen bee had laid eggs.

Luo Heng smeared honey on the wooden strip frame where the royal jelly was taken, and then used the insect transfer needle ground out of the horn to take out some freshly hatched bee maggots and put them in the pulp extraction frame.

Then put the nest frame back in its original place, and put the slurry extraction frame back into the middle of the honeycomb frame on the top of the relay box.

"Three days is fine. Luo Heng is not sure about three days, but he will know when the time comes.

Jon felt that Luo Heng's brain didn't know how to grow, and he was able to think of this method, and Jon now saw that there was a certain way, which was actually to trick those bees into producing royal jelly.

In three days, Luo Heng took a look, it didn't work, and after waiting for two more days, it was almost there, the beeswax had been spit out by the bee colony on the pulp taking table, some had been closed, some had not, this was the best moment, the closure was that the bees had enough royal jelly reserves for the bee maggots to eat, but after being closed for a long time, they were eaten, and if they were not closed, the amount was insufficient, and some were closed and some were not closed.

The closed beeswax was left outside, and when the cold wind blew, it stiffened, and it was cut with a knife against the wooden strips.

Then, full of nests of royal jelly, pinch out the bee maggots, and then dig out the royal jelly.

"It's so recyclable, but it's better to take royal jelly than honey. Luo Heng looked at one-third of the royal jelly in the crystal bottle, which was only about a hundred grams.

Jon looked at the royal jelly, his eyes flashed with gold, this is simply a money grab, the money is not so fast, a box produces more than a hundred grams, five days, five days, a box is sixty gold coins a day, ten, a hundred.

"Cheney, I think we can work together, you have a natural hot spring here, just right to build a greenhouse. Jon asked tentatively.

"Jon, no need, I'll announce it in a year. Luo Heng blinked.

"Alas, the Wizards' Union is going to issue you badges again, your simple technique can be said to have promoted the growth of magicians, royal jelly is also one of the best auxiliary materials for mana potions, and taking royal jelly for a long time can greatly increase the upper limit of mental power. Jon said with a sigh.

"That's better, remember, 100,000 gold coins. Luo Heng calculated that he had spent more than ten days with 10,000 gold coins a day.

"There won't be any shortage of you, I'll go back right now. Jon raised the magic crystal in his hand, which recorded the most critical operations.

Luo Heng shrugged, and then continued to cut down trees the next day, as for beekeeping, Alicia was personally responsible, and the bee maggots taken out of the royal jelly were all eaten by Alicia, which was something more replenishing than royal jelly, and Alicia obviously felt that her mental power had risen a lot.

Half of the hillside was brought down, and after the big trees were put down, many small saplings were revealed, and a new batch of trees began to grow again.

A nest of bees was found on the way, so the greenhouse was increased to two, and Luo Heng also needed to buy honey.

"Anna, what do you think of our Duke's brain, and we actually obtained royal jelly in this way. The three magicians were in their tents, and the human magician Cassion spoke.

Anna is the name of the dwarf female magician, and Anna said angrily: "We want to eat royal jelly, and we actually have to deduct money and pick the door." ”

"Anna, we are Master Cheney's personal magician, but he paid for it. Dwarf Bronze said dissatisfied.

"The stuff itself is very cheap. Anna said angrily.

"You don't have to eat it. Dwarf Copperstone shrugged.

"Profiteers. Anna's teeth itched with hatred.

On the other side, Luo Heng looked at the shrubs on a rock wall, and always felt a little familiar: "Is this tea?"
