Chapter 18: Wild Honey

The water of the mountain side flows through the mountain, and the water is clear with black shrimp swimming in it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhang Tao squatted down and washed his face with his hands, jumped over the stream, and walked a few hundred meters before coming to the small red dot on the screen of the mushroom detector.

Take a closer look and say, "Wow! So many matsutake mushrooms! Zhang Tao was pleasantly surprised when he saw more than a dozen matsutake mushrooms growing together on the ground. After Zhang Tao looked around and saw that there was nothing going on, he put the basket aside. Use a small shovel to dig up the soil around the matsutake mushrooms, and then take them out with your hands.

1, 2 .... 12, a total of 12 matsutake mushrooms, and I'm rich again! Zhang Tao smiled and put the matsutake mushroom into a plastic bag. When I picked up the plastic bag, I felt that it could be about 15 pounds. It can be sold for more than 3,500 yuan, and the matsutake mushroom and monkey head harvested in the morning are more than 4,000 yuan, a total of more than 7,500 yuan.

"It's not even noon, and I've got almost 10,000 yuan. It's about 20,000 a day, but what about a month? 600,000?! I can't imagine that happiness came so suddenly! Hahaha...."Zhang Tao's laughter echoed in the mountains and forests, startling a group of birds.

After laughing for a while, Zhang Tao stopped laughing. "Don't summon the bear! Even if you have a stun gun in hand, be careful! After Zhang Tao calmed down, he thought carefully to see if there were any large animals around.

No, it doesn't look like there are any bears around here! Zhang Tao continued to set off to the next location. The foal light passed through the gap, and unconsciously picked a small half basket of matsutake mushrooms and monkey heads. I looked at my phone and it was 11:30 a.m., it was time for lunch, and I found a place with water to boil the eggs.

Zhang Tao found a flat place with a stream, and after passing a small hill, he saw a valley and a sea of flowers under the mountain. There is a small river in the sea of flowers, and there are flowers of various colors.

A fairyland on earth! Standing on the top of the mountain, watching the flowers blowing in the mountain breeze and the fragrance of flowers wafting, the fragrance of flowers is fragrant but not charming. The wind blew his clothes as if he had become a fairy. Zhang Tao watched for a while, then walked down the mountain, and there were some small bees flying on the flowers in the sea of flowers, collecting nectar.

Zhang Tao got some pollen on his body through the flowers, and touched the fat bees picking nectar, and the bees did not fly away to continue collecting pollen, and the hairy ones were several times larger than those of the domestic ones.

As we approached the river, we passed a grove of trees and birches, sparsely grown. A thicker lime tree has a large beehive with bees flying in and out of it, sending pollen.

Let's try some wild honey, usually the honey sold in the supermarket is fried and sweetened, it is rare to buy pure natural honey, and it is not bad to eat bread and dip honey at noon. Lunch was served here.

Zhang Tao saw that the surrounding terrain was very flat, and dangerous animals could also be spotted in advance, so he first went to the river to fill the two water tanks with water and took them to the back basket under the tree. Then use a small shovel to scrape the soil around the tree up to a radius of two meters.

Then go around and find dry leaves and dry grass that smell bad, and bring some to the bottom of the hive on the tree. I picked up the binoculars and looked around to see if there were any border guards patrolling. Fire prevention is a crime, and it will be miserable to be caught!

Hide the brim of your hat a little lower to prevent someone who is bored from seeing yourself when looking at satellites. I took out a piece of toilet paper from my trouser pocket, lit it with a lighter, put it on dry leaves and hay, blocked the wind with my hands, and set the leaves and hay on fire in a short time.

The leaves and hay didn't burn much, and a puff of smoke rose from the leaves and hay and drifted above the hive, giving off a pungent smell of sulphur and sourness! The bees near the hive smell the smoke and flew away, and the smoke grew thicker as the leaves and hay continued to burn. More and more bees flew out of the hive, and after another half a minute, there were no bees left.

Zhang Tao took a clean plastic bag and put it in his pocket, put on gloves and a mask, tied the rope in the middle, threw his arm hard and put the rope mouth on the fork of the tree, Zhang Tao dragged the rope and quickly climbed up the tree.

This wild hive is several times larger than the domestic hive, so it is possible for such a large hive to raise such large bees. Probably because the beekeeper takes the honey of the bees and gives them syrup to eat, the bees are malnourished and not as big as the wild bees.

Taking off a glove, he peeled open the top of the hive to reveal the white honey and young peaks inside. The honey was liquid and couldn't be taken out, so Zhang Tao took out a few beehives with honey, knocked the hives with young bees on the hive, and poured them into the hive. The larvae of bees are said to be delicious and sweet when they watch TV!

But just take honey, the young bees can be kept to grow up to collect honey! I took five pieces of the hive from the hive, and there are many more in the hive, so keep them for the bees! Just have enough to eat!

Because of the smell of smoke, I didn't smell the honey in the hive! After Zhang Tao tied the bag, he slid down the tree. The epidermis of the segment tree is relatively smooth and goes down quickly.

After Zhang Tao went down to the ground, he washed his hand dipped in honey with water from the water tank. He put the plastic bag containing the hive in the basket, took a small shovel to extinguish the fire on the leaves, and poured two jars of water on it, so that the leaves and grass stopped smoking.

Then he picked up a small shovel and dug a small pit next to the ashes of the leaves and blades of grass, and put the ashes of the fire and some leftover leaves and grass into it, and then dug some soil to cover it to isolate the air and completely prevent the ashes from recurring.

Zhang Tao picked up the basket on his back and quickly walked away from Duan Shu, and now the fire was extinguished and the smoke was gone. If the bees come back and smell the smell and sting themselves, they will be miserable! Run! After walking briskly for about five minutes, Zhang Tao sat down under a big tree by the river.

Put one or two water tanks next to the basket next to the basket, put on gloves and take out a few large rocks in the river and form a small circle on the bank. Zhang Tao found some dry branches and leaves and put them in the stone circle, lit the leaves with toilet paper, and blocked the wind with his hands. After a while, the flames were heated under Zhang Tao's care, and a few fresh branches were put on the stone as a barbecue grill.

Take out the wild eggs, wash them in the river water, put them in the water tank, and then put the water tank on a shelf made of tree branches. I picked up another water tank and took a sip of water, and I was a little thirsty after working for most of the day.

Take out the bread and break it in half with your hands, then take one piece of the hive out of the plastic bag and put it on a piece of bread, then put the other half of the bread on the hive, pinch the two pieces of bread, and the hive burger is made. Hurry up and tie the plastic bag, the sweet smell of honey will not be good for the bees.

Smelling the intoxicating sweetness, I took a bite on the bread, and the wheat aroma of the bread mixed with the sweetness of the honey, as well as the sticky texture of the honeycomb. It was so fragrant that Zhang Tao chewed and swallowed the bread and hive in his mouth, and then took a big bite of the bread and hive.

Wild honey is white, sweet and fragrant, and has a faint pollen flavor, Zhang Tao wiped out the beehive burger in a few bites, drank a few sips of water, and rested while playing with the fire, so that the fire would not be extinguished.

Zhang Tao opened the lid of the water tank, watched a few small bubbles bubble up the water in the water tank, closed the lid, and waited for the water in the tank to boil and eat eggs.
