The man looked and smiled, "How many bees do you have in your house?"
"Follow us to the cruiser later. I'll take a look at this brother's eyes. If he's short-sighted, I'll give him a mirror."
Li Yi could tell that the man's eyesight was not good. Didn't he see that the woman was nervous?
"Thank you, Li Dongzhu. Thank you, Li Dongzhu." The woman thanked him profusely.
"Ah? Li Dongzhu? Li Yi? "The man reacted and took two steps forward. He didn't know him.
"When did you lose your sight?" Li Yi observed the man's eyes and asked.
"When I was young, my parents went blind early on. Later on, we met a flood …" The man stopped.
"How are your eyes? Do you have children? "Li Yi looked at the woman.
"My eyes are good. I have two children. The elder daughter is 11 years old, and the younger son is 5 years old. Actually, I have five children in total." The woman didn't seem sad.
"Where are the children?" Li Yi turned and asked Zhangsun Xin.
"In school, I find people to work. They have children, so I can't ask them to work. In order to maintain my good reputation, I have to continue pretending. "
Zhangsun Xin said seriously. He cared about his reputation.
"Good, you're smart! When you help with work, you have to be gentle. Don't make big movements. It's easy for the bees to misunderstand. "
Li Yi said as he walked to a beehive. He gently pulled out the beehive and observed, "The walls of the hive have thickened. See how many there are. When we harvest the honey, we'll replace them with new ones."
"Li Dongzhu, I was just about to say. These are beehives that I got from other places. Since they're part of the hive, I'll deal with them first."
The man didn't ask Li Yi how many bees there were in his house. He knew that Li Yi didn't know either.
The Li Family Zhuangzi was so big. How could Li Dongzhu specifically remember how many bees there were?
"Alright, find Inspector Zhangsun. He'll arrange it." Li Yi slowly put the beehive back in and licked his fingers.
The others helped to scrub the tarps. They checked if one side was dry and replaced the other.
"In the future, you can live in a greenhouse and raise them in winter. Go get some honey for everyone to try. This is our own honey. "
Zhangsun Xin promised that he wouldn't be able to help.
He knew how to take care of people and make them happy.
Among his duties, he was responsible for the emperor's clothes, tables, chairs, teacups, and other utensils.
The woman immediately went to get it. There was nothing else mixed in the honey.
When he was in Li Yi, all food had a shelf life, including salt and honey, which usually lasted for 24 months.
If he saw an 18-month shelf life, it meant that the purity was too low.
Honey sealed with honey could be stored for eight to ten years without a problem.
The people in the team didn't lack honey to eat. It was better to try it since it was from their own family.
The honey produced by different flowers had different tastes, so it was hard to say which one was the best.
"It rained yesterday. You two must be tired, right?" Zhangsun Xin thought of something.
"Someone helped. Inspector Zhangsun's land and bees were all watched by the local people." The woman praised Zhangsun Xin again.
The actual situation was just as she said. Yesterday, when the locals saw how beautiful the morning glow was, they ran over to help set up the beehives and cover the thatch.
"You've memorized it? When it's time to harvest the honey, leave some beeswax and send it over. "
Zhangsun Xin used the method of serving the Emperor to conduct himself.
"I remember. There was also some processed before. There will be more when it's time to change the spleen." The man still replied with a smile.
Beeswax wasn't used to make candles after purification. It was eaten as medicine and food. Now, honey was not allowed to be used in making incense.
"Let's go together." After everyone tasted and finished their work, Li Yi called out. There was no need to leave anyone to watch over them.
The husband and wife held each other's arms and followed the team to the next place.
A palace maid beside them handed them water and compressed biscuits, asking them to eat as they walked.
Looking at the situation, it was obvious that they hadn't eaten since they set up the beehives in the morning and washed the thatch.
"Daughter, you're so attentive." The woman praised.
Taohong smiled and didn't say anything. What an attentive palace maid …
"I know this is called compressed biscuits. It's better than black bread." The man took a bite. It was delicious.
The compressed biscuits he ate were different from the ones in the army. The palace maids and eunuchs made them separately and carried them with him at all times. When he was too busy and couldn't eat, he would take a bite.
"Originally, there were buns. Early in the morning, I saw people sweeping the streets. Yesterday, the rain washed the buns onto the road, so I gave it to them to eat."
Jin Ju whispered at the side as she helped the man watch the road.
Li Yi walked and talked about beekeeping.
"People who make a living from beekeeping need to take care of the flowers. Wherever the flowers bloom, they will carry the beehives. As they walk, they will harvest the honey to exchange for money. They also need to bring along a set of tools to make the beehives.
They hope to exchange it for copper coins as it is convenient to carry around. However, many places collect honey and can only accept silk.
They spend a lot of effort to bring the silk from one place to another. Some places have a lot of silk, and the quality is good. Hence, they can exchange for more privately. "
"Yes, yes, yes. Li Dongzhu is right. My family used to keep bees, but my eyesight is getting worse and worse. I wanted to find a stable place to live, so I ran to the capital office."
The man was excited. There were people who knew him well. His life was so tough in the past.
"Gang Rou, I understand now. The capital office has reduced the amount of silk because of the tax exemption.
Other places still have to pay taxes.
Therefore, the capital office has reduced the amount of silk. Other places can replenish it, and the price can't be high. "
Wang Wei was the first to speak, answering the previous question.
Meng Haoran said: "Good road conditions can reduce the cost of logistics. It can be seen that road construction is beneficial to the people."
"Mo Jie, Haoran, you are indeed careful. The people of the Tang dynasty are blessed to have officials like you two." Li Yi casually praised.
Meng Haoran and Wang Wei's face turned slightly red. Your hint is right in front of us. If you still can't answer, are you going to change the place for us?
Zhangsun Xin listened without any change in her expression. If Li Yi didn't have the ability, would he dare to scheme against the ministers?
"Li Yi, there are a lot of beans planted in front. It was raining heavily yesterday. I am afraid that some bean worms fell and drowned." Zhangsun Xin pointed at the place where the beans were planted.
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest. Only the bean worms that can survive are good enough. At least they can grab the back of the leaves. "
Li Yi was not worried about the decline of the number of bean worms. The ones that survived would grow stronger.
It was the same as natural selection. It was just that the bean worms were specially raised. To a certain extent, they had more opportunities to evolve.
When they arrived at the place, a group of people walked in the ridges in the bean field, looking for ladybugs. When they found them, they threw them into straw cages and took them back to feed the chickens.
Insects that were not bean worms were also caught. When they saw the bean worms that were knocked down by the rain yesterday, they picked them up and fed them to the chickens.
Li Yi took photos and videos with his digital camera and stored them separately. He was going to test them and input them into the computer.
After the rain, the ground was wet. Even if the soil was not good, it would still stick to the soles of the shoes. Li Yi did not go in.
The people who caught the worms along the ridges rolled up their trousers and walked barefoot.
There was a pressure well next to it. They also used cement to build small grooves and ditches. Otherwise, there would be a big hole at the outlet of the well.
"Li Yi, look, as long as there is enough fertilizer, the beans will grow well. The fertilizer sent by the Li Family Zhuangzi can be adjusted according to the instructions."
Zhangsun Xin squatted next to a bean seedling and observed.
