Chapter 206 Artificial Bee Division
The wildflowers bloom in April and are of no use to ordinary people, the only advantage is that they look good. But wildflowers are a sweet source of honey for bees, and this is the honey flow period of bees, and when the native bees have a nectar source, the bee colony can produce a large amount of honey.
Liang Chuan's special training in the forest changed direction, and instead of running under the old tree where he had marked yesterday, he ran to the front of the bamboo forest where the beehives were placed. Now the weather is getting hotter, and the warm weather is the season with the highest chance of beeping.
The weeds covered by the beehive in front of the bamboo forest have long been yellow, and a large number of bees outside the beehive are gathered on the outside of the front wall of the beehive and under the tread of the nest door, densely packed with industrious bees, crawling in and out.
After the current earth bee saw Liang Chuan, it would not attack Liang Chuan like the last time he robbed the hive, but Liang Chuan was quite satisfied with the new home they had set up, and they were busy going in and out. The honey-soaked bee has an inconvenient abdomen and cannot use the chela on its buttocks, and the originally crazy native bee has become tame in this bee season.
Liang Chuan just took a look at the situation of the beehive from a distance, and the number of earth bees flew low in front of the beehive. fruit
But it's ready to split the bees.
Seeing this, Liang Chuan hurriedly went down the mountain, and called Brother Zhao, who looked gloomy, Brother Zhao reluctantly, these days he is like a walking corpse, he is powerless to do anything, the new house is almost built, and the materials for the preparation are all in place, just waiting for the masters to process, and Brother Zhao doesn't understand these stonemasons and carpenters, and they can't understand it when they look at it on the side.
These days, I stayed at home and was stunned. Liang Chuan told him not to be distracted, he had something important to do right now. Brother Zhao didn't know what was going on, but looking at Liang Chuan's expression, there was no doubt that the matter was urgent.
Liang Chuan asked Brother Zhao to go to Fengshan to buy two pieces of gauze for making mosquito nets, as well as two hats, and Brother Zhao took the money and went to Fengshan to buy gauze without asking about it. Liang Chuan went to bother Zhao Jinyu's little apprentice again, the first beehive was made by Zhao Jinyu's little apprentice, and the process was quite simple.
There were still some leftovers left from the beehive last time, and the wooden blocks in the yard were used, and the little apprentice and Liang Chuan worked together to sawn for a long time, and when the sun was setting in the west, they drove out all the materials. At night, Liang Chuan worked overtime to slowly put together the beehive.
When Brother Zhao came back from buying gauze from Fengshan, it was almost dark, and when he saw Liang Chuan fiddling with the boxy wooden box again, his body trembled for a while. This is not the 'small coffin material' that I carried last time I went to the mountains to dig up the honeycomb! Last time, the bee stung had to come back and wipe a large lump of cow dung, and the pus pricked by the bee needles subsided for a few days, and he was embarrassed. Ugliness is secondary, the key is that this bee sting is really painful, looking back, Brother Zhao couldn't help but cover his face.
"Third brother, you don't want to go to the mountains to dig out honeycombs again, I can tell you, I won't accompany you to the danger this time, absolutely not!" Brother Zhao said resolutely, there is no room for maneuver.
Liang Chuan lowered his head and only cared about organizing his own beehive,
Take a moment to raise your head and smile at Brother Zhao, and said, "I was scared last time, hehe, it hurts, I can't stand it." But now, I've come up with a clever plan to get us going, coming back! ”
Brother Zhao said that he would not be deceived by Liang Chuan's tricks, and then talk to Liang Chuan, and then he will be surrounded by him again, and go with Liang Chuan stupidly, in that case, he will really be a fool. Brother Zhao squatted at the base of the wall, constantly reminding himself in his heart, don't be deceived, don't be deceived, it's all a lie.
Liang Chuan had the experience of making beehives once, and he was handy the second time. After a while, it will be wooden
The beehives are assembled. Liang Chuan picked up the hat and gauze that he bought back from Zhaodi, cut the gauze and put it on the hat, hung the gauze down naturally, and the tassel tail of the tent cloth was retracted and tied tightly, which was an anti-bee mask separating the earth bees! It can not only keep the earth bee out of the mask, but also see the outside of the gauze.
"Do you want to eat honey?" Liang Chuan tempted to recruit his younger brother.
"Third brother, don't use honey to lure me or me anymore, I don't want to, and I won't eat it if I am killed. The honey was not eaten, and everyone was stung to death! ”
Liang Chuan picked up the hat and put it on Brother Zhao's head, "You wear this hat to try, there will definitely be no mosquitoes biting you wherever you go tonight, you go outside and try it." Liang Chuan carefully helped Zhao Di tie the gauze bottom of the hat tightly, leaving no gap for mosquitoes to take advantage of the gap.
The river has the most mosquitoes, and a cow used to be sucked into jerky. Brother Zhao wore this hat and walked to the stream in disbelief. As soon as the mosquitoes by the stream smelled the smell of human blood, they all went crazy, and they swarmed all over the world, and the buzzing of the mosquitoes next to Zhaodi's ears was endless, and the noise made the roots of the ears hurt a little.
The black-pressed mosquito saw that the delicacy was right in front of him, but a gauze blocked the way, and he couldn't move forward
。 The original snow-white gauze is now black with a large number of mosquitoes attached to it, all of them are outlaws who want to drink a mouthful of blood, and it makes Zhao's heart tremble, I didn't feel so many mosquitoes by the river before, but today I can see it
Amazed.
When Brother Zhao came back, he excitedly talked about the fact that mosquitoes couldn't drink his blood. Liang Chuan pouted at him and said, "With this protection, mosquitoes so small can't sting you, let alone earth bees, how about it, do you want to go with the third brother tomorrow to taste the taste of earth honey?" ”
Brother Zhao was a little moved, and his face was uncertain, he was really afraid of the chela of the earth bee, but he couldn't help his mouth, as the saying goes, it is as sweet as honey, and the taste of honey is still very attractive.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow, third brother."
The next day, Brother Zhao skillfully helped Liang Chuan carry the beehive, cut a hat and brought some thick cloth up the mountain, and thought about it for a night but still didn't resist the temptation of honey. Now it's no fun to recruit brothers, so I have to eat.
Liang Chuan waited for all the women in the village to go down the mountain before going up the mountain, he didn't dare to let outsiders discover his beehive, and if he found it, he didn't want to drink any honey, and even the box would be gone.
Brother Zhao was fooled by him, and I don't know what honey tastes like until now, but there are a lot of bags that have been stung. In fact, the soil bees will not attack at this time, because each of them has honey in its mouth to prepare for the construction of new nests.
Yesterday on the mountain, although the beehive was in turmoil, the queen bee had not yet appeared, relying on the natural method of dividing the bees, Liang Chuan did not understand whether these bee masters were willing to go to the new beehive he made, in case he didn't go, it was not in vain. The students majoring in beekeeping have communicated with him, and if the natural method does not work, the artificial method is used, and the effect is similar, but it directly accelerates the development of beeping.
Although the current earth bee is weak in aggressiveness, Liang Chuan is not dedicated to beekeeping, and he has no bottom in his heart, in case this bee is not dense in its mouth, Liang Chuan will be greeted by either honey or poisonous chela! For the sake of safety, Liang Chuan first covered himself with a bee-proof hat, and wrapped all the other exposed parts of his hands with a thick cloth and wrapped them in a tight layer.
When the younger brother saw that he was going to move the real thing, he had learned and behaved, and hurriedly armed himself with his fine skin. Bringing so many guys is to prevent yourself from being stabbed again, not now, let alone when.
Liang Chuan divided a box group into two box groups, and took out the weeds covering the box head-on, as soon as the grass was lifted, the land bees knew that someone had come to invade their territory, and the earth bees on the nest door began to be restless, and then the earth bees in the box began to pour out from the nest door and pounced on this non-sleeper who invaded the home.
What Liang Chuan is most worried about now is whether this gauze tent can withstand it, in case the gauze eye is too big, and one or two needles are pierced in, it will be too late to cry.
The gauze hat on Liang Chuan's head was full of earth bees when it didn't take long to fly, and the earth bees climbed up and down on the gauze, waiting for an opportunity to find a soft part and give Liang Chuan an injection, but after climbing for a long time, it was a layer of cool gauze, and without a warm body, there was no way to get a needle!
Brother Zhao was shocked to see that Liang Chuan was now wrapped in earth bees, and there was no clean place on his body. The head is even more terrifying, the white gauze is no longer white, and one head is like a worm, which makes people's scalp tingle. Brother Zhao was so nervous that he couldn't speak, but he still moved quite freely when he saw Liang Chuan, and from time to time he pushed away the bees that blocked his vision, causing Brother Zhao's palms to be covered with sweat.
Liang Chuan removed the old box, moved it to the left one foot of the original position, and placed the newly made empty beehive one foot on the opposite side. Lifting the lid of the box, it turned out that the empty beehive had allowed these industrious native bees to build a kingdom, and the whole hive was full of breeding. The earth bees inside swarmed out, and the earth bees originally surrounded Liang Chuan, but now within one meter of Liang Chuan, there are all buzzing and hovering earth bees.
Liang Chuan took out half of the nest in the old beehive and the earth bees on it, as well as the queen bee, and put them in the empty box, and sorted out the two boxes of beehives. When the flying bee returns to its nest, it will be surprised to find that the original nest is gone! They follow the same kind of pheromones, and some have to fly to the left, and some to the right into different beehives on both sides.
When Liang Chuan just took out the honeycomb, he took the opportunity to rub a little honey, which he would have to go to the mountain to find another queen bee and lure him to his beehive. Now that their native bees have adapted to the habits of the beehive, it is best to use them to divide the bees, if you use the old method, not necessarily every nest of native bees is willing to stay in the box, there is a certain risk.
Liang Chuan and Zhao Di ran to the small honeycomb they encountered yesterday, and used the honey in their hands to lure the queen bee into the beehive, and the newly lured queen bee was afraid of surrounding the king, so they had to spray some water on it to make the smell disappear, and after staying in the new beehive for a long time, the smell of the new king would slowly be accepted by the original bee.
Liang Chuan and Zhao Di were running wild in the mountains and forests in strange costumes, and no one found out, otherwise the rumors of wild people on the mountains would alarm the government again.
Brother Zhao and Liang Chuan worked hard for a day, and in the end, what was the taste of honey, and they didn't taste a mouthful.
