Poria cocos has been planted, but it needs to be taken care of frequently to observe the emergence of bacteria and remove dead bacteria in a timely manner.
Poria cocos cannot be grown continuously because other fungi will affect its normal growth. So next year, Gao Mingcheng will have to find other suitable hillside planting sites.
In fact, Poria cocos can be planted in spring and autumn, but the weather will be dry in the second half of this year, so Gao Mingcheng does not plan to plant it this fall.
On this day, Gao Mingcheng went into the mountains to check on the condition of the beehives. It had been a month since the last honey shake. Since there were many honey sources in the mountains during this period, honey collection was active, and there was already a lot of honey on the honeycombs.
Italian bees are active in collecting honey and reproducing. However, after reaching a certain number, the bee colony will begin to divide, and the queen bee will take away a group of bees.
At this time, you can artificially divide the boxes into boxes. If you do not divide the boxes into boxes, you will have to kill the queen bee when she is still a larvae to ensure that the number of bees will not decrease significantly.
After Gao Mingcheng checked the conditions of the beehives one by one, he decided to shake the honey tomorrow, bring another fir tree down the mountain, and take it to the carpenter to make some beehives.
Small-scale beekeeping is actually not too tiring. The most tiring part of large-scale beekeeping is finding honey sources. Therefore, some beekeepers in later generations will drive large trucks and carry beehives to all parts of the country in search of high-quality honey sources.
Depending on the source of honey, the honey produced is also different. Broken down, there are longan honey, rape honey, loquat honey, citrus honey, lychee honey, acacia honey, vitex honey, jujube honey, acacia honey, etc.
If it is not divided into subdivisions, it will be collectively called Baihua Nectar.
Gao Mingcheng had never specifically pursued a single type of nectar. The place where he placed the beehives was scattered in a small forest, with a large patch of thorns growing on the edge of the forest.
Vitex is not a thorn, but a common Chinese medicinal plant. It is widely distributed and can be found in the north and south of the Yangtze River. In addition to its medicinal uses, it can also prevent soil erosion. In addition, it has a long flowering period and a good source of nectar, so Gao Mingcheng discovered this area. After removing the thorns, the beehives were moved over.
From May to July, it is the flowering time of vitex. The branches are full of lavender flowers. The flowers are relatively small and not conspicuous at first sight, but the flowers are very dense. There are many buds growing on the branches, which bloom one after another. .
Gao Mingcheng was in a good mood when he saw this large field of flowers. He hummed a little tune and went down the mountain with Black Tiger and Elf.
However, when Gao Mingcheng came over the next day, his good mood disappeared!
Seeing the damaged beehives, Gao Mingcheng had a solemn expression on his face and a sneer on his lips. He carried the honey shaker into the mountain, but then came down the mountain carrying the empty honey shaker.
When he entered the mountain again, he held a javelin in his hand.
"Black Tiger, Elf, let's go bear hunting!" Gao Mingcheng said murderously.
Anyone who offends my beehive will be punished no matter how far away he is!
Tonight, he will arrange steamed bear paws!
If in future generations, his beehive is stolen by a black bear, he will have to endure it. Who allowed the black bear to be regarded as a protected animal and protected by the state!
But now, in this era where guns and hunting are not allowed, power is king. As long as he can defeat the black bear, then he can eat the bear meat!
Gao Mingcheng held a javelin in his hand, a dagger in his waist, and two good dogs. He entered the mountain aggressively. He went straight to the cave where the black bear lived before. It was only after he entered the cave that he discovered the cave. Already abandoned by the black bear.
When he was shaking honey, he encountered a black bear and played a running game with the bear. Later, he changed the location of the beehive, and the black bear actually changed its cave.
But even if he changed the location of the beehive, wouldn't it still be found by the black bear?
So now even if the black bear changes its cave, he can still find it!
"Black Tiger, Elf, you go in and smell the smell, and then go find the black bear!" Gao Mingcheng ordered.
The dog's sense of smell is very sensitive. After the black tiger and the elf were trained, it was even easier to find prey.
Although this cave has been abandoned by the black bear, its scent still remains inside. The black tiger walked around the cave, then walked out of the cave, looked around, and then ran in one direction following the smell in the air.
Gao Mingcheng followed closely behind the black tiger, his eyes watching the surroundings vigilantly. Once he found traces of the black bear, the javelin in his hand would definitely give the black bear a good look!
When he checked the beehive yesterday, it was still in good condition. Based on the fresh footprints near the beehive, Gao Mingcheng speculated that the black bear must have found the beehive at night, then destroyed the beehive and took out all the honey inside and ate it.
Fortunately, Gao Mingcheng discovered it in time and the black bear only destroyed one of the beehives. This is also because there is already a lot of honey in one beehive, which is enough for the mother and her son to eat happily.
The black tiger and the elf ran in front, making low calls from time to time, as if telling Gao Mingcheng that they were in this direction. After running for about ten minutes, the black tiger and the elf came to a cave.
But neither the black tiger nor the elf dared to go in rashly. They just stood in front of the cave and barked inside.
Gao Mingcheng understood, it seemed that the black bear mother and her son were inside!
Black bears have the habit of being active at night and sleeping during the day, so right now the black bear mother and her son are sleeping soundly in the cave!
But the barking of dogs woke up the black bear, which made him roar and walk out of the cave with domineering steps. He planned to teach these two ignorant dogs a lesson.
But Gao Mingcheng is waiting there!
The cave was too small for him to go in and fight the black bear, so he waited at the entrance of the cave, waiting for the black bear to show up and let him know why the flowers were so red!
"Whoosh!" The javelin was thrown out with great force, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and stabbed towards the black bear accurately!
The javelin was extremely heavy, and the head was polished to be very sharp. In addition, Gao Mingcheng's throwing force was very strong, so even if the black bear's skin was thick, the javelin stabbed into the black bear's body steadily.
The black bear was in pain and immediately began to wail. It swung its body and shook violently, causing the javelin to fall to the ground. Then the black bear rushed into the hole and made some noises, as if it was giving instructions, and then ran away crazily towards a place.
Gao Mingcheng couldn't let it run away, so he picked up the javelin on the ground and chased after it.
He wanted to hunt this black bear last time, but when he saw the cub later, he felt compassion and let the mother and her son go.
If the black bear doesn't destroy his beehive, then they can stay safe.
But the beehive was destroyed again, and Gao Mingcheng knew that there had to be a break between him and the black bear!
The black bear has a very keen sense of smell and a good memory. Wherever it finds delicious food, it will go there again next time!
When Gao Mingcheng was chasing the black bear with his two dogs, he noticed out of the corner of his eye that a cub ran out of the hole and ran in another direction.
It seems that the black bear was letting the cubs escape before.
Although Gao Mingcheng noticed this, he couldn't care less about chasing down the cub. The top priority was to kill the adult female bear first.
The black bear was fast, but his speed was not slow at all. After running in the forest for a few minutes, he caught up with the black bear again.
"Whoosh!" The javelin in his hand was thrown out again and hit the black bear accurately.
After being injured twice, the black bear's mobility was greatly affected, but it also made the black bear crazy. It no longer ran away, but wanted to fight Gao Mingcheng hand to hand.
The javelin is for long-range shooting, but for hand-to-hand combat, you have to use a dagger.
Gao Mingcheng pulled out the dagger from his waist and faced him bravely.
