Liu Che was a little awkward, but Tang Qi basically understood.

This thing just wants to eat honey, so I went to poke the honeycomb.

In fact, in the early Han Dynasty, both sugar and honey were quite precious.

At that time, there was only one way to make sugar, and that was to consume a lot of grain and boil it to form a viscous maltose, which was called starch sugar.

Food is already precious, and caramel made from a large amount of grain is naturally even more precious, and only the top nobles or royal families can barely afford it.

As for how precious honey is, that's even more to say.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, there were no bee-proof suits.

If you want to pick honey, you can only risk your life to pick it, and you may not be able to pick it.

But Liu Che is a sweet tooth again.

After holding back on a desert island for so long, he finally saw a beehive, and he naturally couldn't hold it.

It's a pity that strength didn't allow him to be presumptuous.

The honey was not harvested, but was stung into a pig's head.

"Alas!"

Tang Qi sighed and said: "You said that you are true, if you want to eat honey, you should say it earlier, what I have here, why should you take the risk?" ”

Liu Che's eyes widened instantly, "Isn't it?" Mr. Tang, do you really have honey? ”

Tang Qi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course there is, honey is not a rare thing, I have saved three jars!" ”

Liu Che swallowed a mouthful of saliva, a look of disbelief on his face.

The honey in the entire imperial dining room is about one or two jars, and it is incredible that there can be three jars here.

Liu Che couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Tang, where did you get so much honey?" ”

Tang Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Of course it was picked from the beehive, do you think it came out of the faucet?" ”

Liu Che touched his still slightly swollen cheeks, and asked suspiciously: "When you collect honey from the beehive, won't you be stung?" ”

Tang Qi smiled: "The bees I raise myself will naturally not sting me!" ”

Liu Che's eyes widened again and said, "Can bees still be raised?" Mr. Tang, are you kidding me? ”

Not only Liu Che, but Wei Qing and Wei Zifu were also confused.

With what they know now, it is naturally difficult to imagine the scene of beekeeping.

Tang Qi pouted and said, "What's the joke about this, there are a lot of bees on this island, it's normal for me to make a few simple beehives to raise bees, right?" ”

Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu looked at each other, and they all felt that this was not normal at all.

That's a bee, a bee that stings.

If you don't pay attention, you can die.

"Mr. Tang, is this beehive an immortal artifact?"

Liu Che asked Tang Qi tentatively.

This was the only reasonable explanation he could think of, only the immortal magic weapon could make the bees obey.

Tang Qi said helplessly: "You really lack common sense, it's just a beehive, just find a carpenter, you can make it in less than an hour, which point has anything to do with the immortal magic weapon?" ”

Liu Che was stunned for a moment: "Is it so simple?" ”

Tang Qi smiled: "It's that simple, the previous methods of using soil nests to keep bees and destroy nests to extract honey are backward, using beehives is the most scientific method, you have to read more!" ”

Liu Che scratched his head and said: "I have been reading since I was a child, and I have read countless books so far, but I have never seen a book with a beehive recorded on it, this should be unique to Penglai Immortal Island!" ”

Tang Qi was too lazy to explain, so he simply diverted the topic and said: "Let's not talk about beekeeping, you are seriously injured in order to eat honey today, I'll make you a cup of honey to hydrolyze your cravings!" ”

Liu Che's eyes lit up instantly, but he pretended to be reserved and said: "How embarrassing is this, it's too troublesome for you, Mr. Tang!" ”

Tang Qi waved his hand and said, "It's nothing troublesome, it's just boiling water to brew it, let's go, go to my house!" ”

After speaking, Tang Qi got up and walked beside him.

Although Liu Che was still a little weak, he still stood up strongly, and with the support of Wei Qing and Wei Zifu, he followed behind Tang Qi.

After arriving at the wooden house, Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu consciously sat on the edge of the dining table, waiting for Tang Qi's honey water.

Tang Qi boiled a pot of water first, and then moved a half-meter-high jar from the corner of the wall and put it on the table.

After the mud seal was lifted, a rich floral fragrance wafted out of the jar.

Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu couldn't help twitching their noses, indulging in the fragrance of the flowers.

"Just by smelling the fragrance, you know that this must be good honey!"

Liu Che was extremely excited and admired.

The group of bees raised by Tang Qi belonged to wild bees at the beginning, and the honey produced was relatively mellow.

In addition, the flowers planted by Tang Qi are also high-quality, so the honey produced is even more fragrant.

"Mr. Tang, can I taste this honey?"

Wei Qing asked Tang Qi with a wistful look, like a child full of curiosity.

Tang Qi didn't refuse, he directly picked up a chopstick, dipped some honey and handed it to Wei Qing.

Wei Qing swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and quickly took the chopsticks and put them in his mouth for a while.

"Hmm...... It's so sweet! ”

Wei Qing narrowed his eyes, a look of enjoyment on his face.

Raw honey is naturally very sweet, the kind that is a little greasy.

Strictly speaking, it's more of a condiment category.

"You can feel the sweetness, and now that the water is boiling, I'll make you honey water to drink."

As he spoke, Tang Qi walked out of the wooden house, came to the stove, directly picked up the whole pot of hot water, and returned to the wooden house.

Then, scoop three spoonfuls of honey from the honey jar, pour some into each bowl, and brew with hot water, and three simple bowls of honey water are ready.

"Let's try it, drinking honey water in the morning can detoxify and nourish the skin, prolong life, and is good for the body!"

Tang Qi said to the three of them in a seductive tone.

In an instant, the eyes of the three of them straightened.

Liu Che asked directly and excitedly, "Mr. Tang." This...... Can drinking this honey water really prolong life and longevity? ”

Tang Qi rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "You are really obsessed with immortality, but if you want to live forever with honey water, it is basically impossible, honey water can just make your body healthier!" ”

Liu Che suddenly showed a look of disappointment on his face.

He is indeed very obsessed with "immortality".

During the period when Liu Che was in power, basically the monks with a little ability could get preferential treatment, be named a big official, and be rewarded with a lot of money.

There is even a monk named Luan Da, who was awarded the title of four generals by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and also married the princess of the dynasty, and he has risen to prominence.

However, once Liu Che found out that this warlock was in vain, the punishment was also quite severe, such as car cracking and so on.

It wasn't until Liu Che's later years, because of the "Prince Affair", that Liu Che finally woke up to the fact that the so-called immortality and the so-called immortal family were all illusory things, and then he gave up the pursuit of immortality......
