The big guys in Yakou Village were already clear about the work on Huaguo Mountain, so Zhao Yuan did not follow up the mountain again, but helped Meng Ying and Aunt Pu make breakfast together, and Tao Yingchun lit a fire in front of the stove.

……

In the next ten days, more than 30 villagers from Yakou Village came early and returned late to help Zhao Yuan clean up Huaguo Mountain. Even when it rained on two of the days, everyone was working on the mountain in their robes and cloaks, except for a distance of more than 100 meters near the top of the mountain, this half of the mountain was basically completely cleared, and from the bottom of the mountain, the whole mountain looked very neat, and at the foot of the mountain there was a large bundle of thatched bushes to dry.

"Uncle Lizheng, the top of the mountain doesn't need to be cleaned up, such a high place is more dangerous to clean, and besides, it is not suitable for planting fruit trees." This afternoon, Zhao Yuan said with a smile to everyone.

This half of Zhao Yuan's mountain is about seven or eight hundred meters high, stretching from the innermost part of the river dam to more than 500 meters below Zhao Yuan's house, with a total area of 16,700 acres.

"How about it, Zhao Dongjia, our work is okay, right?" Wen Jianglang asked with a smile.

Originally, the villagers of Yakou Village always called Zhao Yuan Boss Zhao, but as everyone helped Zhao Yuan work for a longer time, everyone slowly followed Tao Pu to call Zhao Yuan's owner.

"Very good, everyone has worked hard during this time, so let's make a few tables of good wine and food to entertain everyone today, and by the way, everyone's salary for the fourteen days and the money to buy pear saplings will be settled, everyone will go back to rest for a few days, and then ask everyone to come to my house to help plant the land." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"That's great, thank you Zhao Dongjia." Hearing that Zhao Yuan finally mentioned that he would continue to ask everyone to help with the work, Wen Jianglang's eyes lit up.

"I think I want to thank everyone." Zhao Yuan nodded and said.

"Actually, we don't need to rest, we can continue to work tomorrow." Wen Jianglang said with a smile.

"It's better to rest for two days, go home and deal with things at home, for so many days, you haven't been able to take care of your family, and you go out early and return late at my place every day." Zhao Yuan shook his head and said.

"That's okay, listen to Zhao Dong's." Wen Jianglang didn't insist anymore when he heard this.

The shops in the bazaar have begun to be renovated, and Tao Pu's mobility is also good, since they rented a house in the bazaar, their family moved to the bazaar and devoted themselves to Zhao Yuan's shop decoration.

In the past ten days, Zhao Yuan has followed Tao Pu for a few trips in addition to the market, prepared the labor and materials that need to be invited for decoration, and then handed it over to Tao Pu to be responsible.

In Danling County, Wan Yunjun spent all his energy on the soap business IPO during this time, but it didn't go well. Wan Yunju was also a little anxious, and wanted to go to Zhao Yuan's house to bring Zhao Yuan to help, but after thinking about it, he forgot it.

"Second young master, the goods you asked me to contact for Boss Zhao have been contacted, and everything is available for food, clothing, and use, and the goods can be transported to Gray Plains Town at any time." On this day, Wan San said to Wan Yunjun.

"Okay, wait for the notice from the atom, and the goods will be shipped to him as soon as his shop is renovated." Wan Yunjun rubbed his temples and said.

"Second Young Master, the five juniors that Boss Zhao asked us to find have also been found, they are all in the front of the martial arts hall, and their character and personality have also been asked in many ways, and they are rushing over to Danling." Qian Hu also said on the side.

"They've come over for me to meet, and then let them go to Grayplains." Wan Yunjun thought about it, nodded and said.

"Okay, Second Young Master."

…………

In the evening, after entertaining the villagers of Yakou Village for a sumptuous dinner, Zhao Yuan gave everyone the wages and the money to buy pear saplings, and after some laughter, more than 30 villagers in Yakou Village talked and laughed with each other, not touched the cabinet money ticket in his arms and some heavy copper coins, and went home happily.

"Uncle, there are bees flying out of the hive today, they won't run away, right?" After the villagers of Yakou Village left, Zhao Yuan took Meng Ying to add some forage and warm water to the two donkeys, and then took Luoluo for a walk in the yard.

"It's getting warmer, and the bees are starting to go out looking for food." Zhao Yuan shook his head and said with a smile. In the past two days, he has also observed the secret recipe in the beehive, as the weather gets warmer day by day, some plants have begun to bloom, and the bees will also start to collect honey.

The hive is in good condition, and the swarm of bees should have settled in the hive, at least not yet.

"What do bees eat, honey?" Luoluo asked.

"Bees mainly eat nectar and pollen, during this time I told you a lot of physical and chemical knowledge, Luoluo you know that everything in our world is made of matter, the worker bees in the bees will fly to the wild to find flowers containing pollen nectar, collect nectar pollen back to the hive, feed the young bees and cooperate with the bees in the hive to brew honey." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"Nectar is a substance, and after being brewed by bees, it becomes honey, isn't that so, uncle." Luoluo thought for a moment and said loudly.

"Yes, Luoluo is so smart."

"How do bees make nectar into honey?" Luoluo asked again.

"That's right, Brother Yuan, how is honey brewed?" Meng Ying on the side also asked curiously.

"Let's not talk about that." Zhao Yuan thought about it, touched the back of his head and said.

The process of bee brewing honey is that the worker bees suck the water-rich nectar from the flowers to the stomach, absorb the water in the nectar through the digestion of their own digestive juices, and convert the nectar into oligosaccharides and monosaccharides, and this process is carried out more than once, after the worker bees return to the hive, they also transfer the collected nectar to the bees of the hive for several consecutive times to carry out this process, and finally store the brewed honey in the hive.

"Uncle, just tell us, I want to know." Luoluo bit Zhao Yuan's arm and said.

"Okay, then I'll tell you, bees make honey by eating nectar into their stomachs, digesting it and then spitting it out, and after several such processes, the nectar becomes honey." Zhao Yuan said with a smile, I don't know if Meng Ying will feel uncomfortable when she eats honey with Luoluo.

"It turns out that this is how it was brewed, and the bees are so pitiful, they have to spit out what they eat." Meng Ying said on the side.

"Yes, it's really pitiful, we still have to take some of the honey that we have worked so hard to collect, uncle, we will take less honey at home in the future." Luoluo also said sympathetically.

"Okay, listen to Luoluo." Zhao Yuan smiled, that's not what I said.

"Keep a few more boxes of bees in the future, so that the honey will be enough for us to eat." Luo Luoyou said with a smile.

"Okay, raise a few more boxes, so that Luoluo's little gluttonous cat can eat enough." Zhao Yuan said with a laugh.

"I'm not a little gluttonous cat, uncle, you're a big glutton!"
