Chapter 822: I will warm it

~7 min read 1,297 words

However, Song Tan didn't tell Qiaoqiao these cruel realities directly, but found a documentary on the Internet for him to watch.

She only touched his head at the end, fluffy, very obedient: "Everything that lives will eventually die, death is very fair."

Qiaoqiao stared at the documentary that told the life of a bumblebee in a few minutes, and tears fell: "But... Da Xiong is so hard, it works so hard every day, and it's still not full..."

Ah, if you want to say that, then Sister won't be sad anymore!

Song Tan blinked: "You can't be biased. The most tired ones are clearly the worker bees. They have to raise the queen, brew honey, and raise Da Xiong, and their lives are short."

But the soft-hearted Qiaoqiao was extremely clear at this moment: "People will be biased. I like Sister more than I like Brother Zhang Yanping. I like Da Xiong more than other worker bees. There is no way."

"What's more, Da Xiong knows what I'm saying, it's very smart and very obedient—it's my earliest good friend, I really can't bear for Da Xiong to die, wooooooo..."

He sobbed, shrinking in the empty living room at this moment, looking even more lonely and pitiful.

Song Tan remembered that the first partner Qiaoqiao truly brought back to his hometown was Da Xiong.

It was picked up by Qiaoqiao himself, and it stung him when they first met. Finally, the whole process of egg laying and hatching was watched by Qiaoqiao...

Song Tan sighed.

"Okay." She touched Qiaoqiao's head again: "What's on the Internet is not necessarily accurate—just like people in the village, some people die at sixty, and some can live to be ninety. Maybe Da Xiong is different?"

She pointedly said: "After all, it is so lucky."

Qiaoqiao was no longer the child who was easy to coax. He wiped his tears: "I want to go tell Da Xiong first: if you are going to die, don't leave secretly, and don't be afraid of being driven away by the bee colony. You must come to my palm, I will warm you."

After he finished speaking, he ran out of the courtyard in a hurry.

And Xin Jun frowned: "What's wrong with Qiaoqiao?"

Just flashed by, it seems he cried.

Song Tan sighed: "I told him that the bee colony is going to have a new queen. He is sad."

Xin Jun was silent for a while: "It's good that you told him, he is too soft, there are not so many places to distribute love in the countryside."

Pigs will be slaughtered for meat, cattle and sheep too, including chickens and ducks...

Song Tan smiled—it is precisely because of the softness that it is more precious.

It was Zhang Zhang Yanping who suddenly sighed deeply:

"Da Xiong is the hero who attracted fans to our live stream at the beginning!"

After all, there are so many farming live streams, but no one uses Da Xiong's butt to attract people when the broadcast starts, right? Round, fat, and fluffy, classic black and yellow color scheme, which fan wouldn't be confused?

The first wave of attention came from this.

Now that the founding father is about to grow old, Zhang Zhang Yanping was also quite emotional: "When Da Xiong leaves, let's broadcast a live stream to tell everyone."

Song Tan shook her head: "Forget it, most of the fans in the live stream don't know the true lifespan of bumblebees. It's better not to mention such unhappy things. After Da Xiong dies, a new queen is born, and they won't recognize it."

Huh? Zhang Zhang Yanping was puzzled: This kind of secretive personality doesn't look like Tan Tan!

But this is just a small matter, and he quickly agreed: "You are right, don't mention it, just treat it as that one—I hope the next one won't be so round, so fat, and so heavy that it can't hold flowers."

Song Tan:... Ah, this, maybe, probably... this weight can't be reduced.

Qiaoqiao went up the mountain, but Guo Dong followed everyone to prepare to boil beeswax.

Just moved a brand-new stainless steel bucket from the warehouse and prepared to put it on the small stove in the corner of the kitchen, Master Qi stopped everyone:

"Don't waste it! Come, come, come, wash it once first."

"Don't need to wash this, right?" Guo Dong stared at the clean beeswax in the box: "You guys don't have much experience in saving this, right? Frozen and sealed, not dirty."

Who cares if it's dirty, it's not something to eat.

Master Qi pointed to the crystal clear honey still remaining in the honeycomb: "Isn't it a waste to boil this together? Wash it once, and keep this honey water to feed the pigs and cattle and sheep."

Zhang Zhang Yanping was energetic: "Oh, there is honey water? Can people drink it?"

Master Qi didn't stop him: "It can be drunk, but there are bee pupae and larvae in these honeycombs, as well as individual residual bees."

"But don't worry, based on my experience, you won't die."

If it weren't for these residues, why would you have to freeze them in the refrigerator? It's to prevent them from hatching and growing insects.

Zhang Zhang Yanping:...

No need.

There is honey at home, he just asked casually because he was used to recycling, and didn't want to drink it.

Just...

"Just to feed the pigs with this little honey water, you have to wash it once, will it be a waste?"

"No." This time it was Xin Jun who answered: "Inside are all beeswax and honeycomb, which are insoluble in water. It doesn't matter how it is after washing."

Guo Dong also agreed: "It has to be boiled with water later, washing it now doesn't affect it."

She is a standard activist, and she was ready to do it herself at this moment, but was stopped by Zhang Zhang Yanping:

"Don't move!"

His expression was quite serious: "From food to skincare, this cross-industry is quite large, so we have to give fans a chance to prepare."

"This beeswax boiling should wait until Qiaoqiao comes down the mountain to open the live stream. Let's warm up first."

"Let's calculate the cost first, see what containers to use, and then set the price."

What cost is there to calculate?

Song Tan opened her mouth and spat out a cold number: "50g for 188 yuan."

Hiss—

Guo Dong took a breath: "You really dare to think! I bought a special hand cream before, 30ml was only 88!"

"Only?" Zhang Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun made strange noises together: "Just apply it to your hands! The urea cream I used to treat chilblains when I was a child was only 5 yuan a tube!"

Guo Dong blinked coldly: "Oh, it seems to be 15 now—but that's not the point. Song Tan, is the price of 188 a bit expensive?"

"88 and 188 are both expensive for just applying to hands!" Zhang Zhang Yanping shouted!

Song Tan was very calm: "Our tea oil, our beeswax. Tea oil needs to be picked, dried, crushed, and squeezed. Our tea trees, the oil content of tea seeds is not high, one jin of tea seeds can produce two taels of oil at most."

"Beeswax is the same, there is only so much saved in a year, 70 jin at most. For 50g of hand cream, beeswax must be used for six or seven grams, right?"

She looked at Zhang Zhang Yanping: "Do you still think 188 is expensive now?"

Zhang Zhang Yanping thought about it: "If it were someone else's, I would definitely think it's expensive. But our family's things..."

He instantly decided: "Just listen to you!" ===== CHAPTER 823 =====
