"Brother Ziwen, will these bees sting people?"
Seeing Zhou Ziwen busy for a long time and placing the honeycomb behind the house, Chen Qiaoyi asked with some worry.
"Don't worry, Yiyi, these bees have been tamed by me and will not sting people casually." Zhou Ziwen explained with a smile.
"That's good, I'm afraid they will sting Yueyue." Chen Qiaoyi breathed a sigh of relief.
“No, no matter how many they are, they will not attack us as long as we don’t take the initiative to provoke them.”
Zhou Ziwen continued to comfort him.
"Well, then I'm relieved." Chen Qiaoyi nodded.
She has blind faith in Zhou Ziwen. As long as Zhou Ziwen says there is no problem, then there will definitely be no problem.
"Okay, the hive has been finished, and the next step is to wait for them to settle here."
Zhou Ziwen looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.
"By the way, Brother Ziwen, how much honey did you harvest today?" Chen Qiaoyi asked curiously.
"Haha, today's harvest is not bad, I must have harvested more than ten kilograms!" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"So much! Then we will not be short of honey in the future." Chen Qiaoyi said in surprise.
“Yes, you can eat as much as you want in the future.” Zhou Ziwen also agreed with a smile.
“Brother Ziwen, you are so powerful.” Chen Qiaoyi looked at Zhou Ziwen with admiration.
"Haha, what's this? There will be something even more powerful in the future!" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
His beast taming level is only level three. When the level is higher in the future, this swarm of bees will be completely tamed by him.
As of now, he is only initially domesticated.
"By the way, Brother Ziwen, are you still going out in the afternoon?" Chen Qiaoyi asked again.
“I won’t go out in the afternoon. I plan to build a kiln at home to bake some ceramics in the future.”
Zhou Ziwen replied.
"Kiln cellar? Brother Ziwen, do you know how to make ceramics?" Chen Qiaoyi asked in surprise.
“Don’t worry, I’m very good at my craftsmanship. When the kiln is ready, I’ll bake a few for you to see.”
Zhou Ziwen said confidently.
"Then I'll wait." Chen Qiaoyi said happily.
"Well, I'll start working on it now."
Zhou Ziwen nodded, and then began to plan the location of the kiln.
He had already thought of the location of the kiln, it was in the corner of the backyard.
The location is remote and perfect for making ceramics.
After planning the location, Zhou Ziwen started digging holes.
Digging holes is physical work, but for Zhou Ziwen, this is nothing.
He is very strong and can dig very quickly.
After a while, a pit more than one meter deep was dug.
Next, Zhou Ziwen began to build the kiln with stones.
Building a kiln is a technical job, but for Zhou Ziwen, this is not a problem.
He has pottery skills and has reached level six, so he is very familiar with it.
Zhou Ziwen first built a rectangular kiln with bricks, and then opened an opening on the top of the kiln to add firewood.
Then he opened an observation hole on the side of the kiln to observe the temperature inside the kiln.
After setting up the kiln, Zhou Ziwen began to prepare the materials for firing ceramics.
Firing ceramics requires special clay. He remembered that there was a place with good clay texture by a stream near the village, so he went there with the tools.
It's getting late now, and it's definitely too late to fire the ceramics, but there's still no problem getting the clay back.
Arrived at the stream, he carefully selected some clay with no impurities and fine texture, dug it up with a shovel, and put it into the bag he brought. Zhou Ziwen returned home carrying a bag full of clay and placed the clay in the yard to dry to remove the moisture.
The newly dug clay is too wet. Only clay with the right humidity can be used to make ceramics.
By the time he finished all this, it was almost time to get off work.
Next, Zhou Ziwen returned to the house and started preparing today's dinner.
Zhou Ziwen checked the ingredients at home and found some vegetables, bacon and eggs.
He decided to make a simple yet delicious dinner.
He first cut the bacon into thin slices, put it in a pan and fried it until both sides were golden brown. The aroma of the bacon instantly filled the entire kitchen.
Then, he washed and cut the vegetables, put them into the pot and stir-fried with the bacon, added an appropriate amount of salt and seasonings, and stir-fried evenly.
While he was cooking, Chen Shiying also came back from work.
Chen Shiying walked into the kitchen and saw Zhou Ziwen cooking. She smiled and said, "Ziwen, what are you going to make delicious today?"
Zhou Ziwen replied: "I'm cooking today. Bacon, stir-fried vegetables, and eggs."
Chen Shiying smelled the fragrance in the air and said, "It smells so good, I'm almost hungry."
Zhou Ziwen urged with a smile. "Wash your hands quickly and get ready to eat."
Chen Shiying nodded and went to wash her hands.
After a while, the meal will be ready.
Zhou Ziwen brought the food to the table and shouted: "Yiyi, it's time to eat."
Chen Qiaoyi walked out of the room, saw the food on the table, and said with a smile: "Brother Ziwen, the food you cook always tastes so delicious."
Everyone chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was warm and pleasant.
"Ziwen, the mushrooms in the fourth workshop will be harvested tomorrow. Come and take a look!"
While eating, Chen Shiying said.
"Okay, I'll go over and take a look tomorrow morning." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
"How are the mushrooms in the fourth workshop growing?" Chen Qiaoyi asked
"They are growing very well, and there should be a good harvest." Chen Shiying replied.
"This batch of mushrooms should be sold for a lot of money. Uncle Wu and the captain will probably be very happy." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"Yes, thanks to Brother Ziwen. If he hadn't led us to grow mushrooms, how could we have made so much money!" Chen Qiaoyi said proudly.
“Haha, everyone worked hard and this is the joint achievement of everyone.” Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
Although he is the leader, he is also the core figure of the mushroom cultivation base.
It can be said that without him, this mushroom cultivation base would not have been built.
But all this is inseparable from the support of the production team.
If the production team does not support it, it will be useless no matter how capable he is.
"Ziwen, you are too humble. We all know that you are the soul of the mushroom planting base." Chen Shiying said with a smile.
"Yes, we all know what you are capable of." Chen Qiaoyi also agreed.
"Haha, okay, please stop praising me. If you continue to praise me, I will be in trouble." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"Hehe, Brother Ziwen, even if you float up, we will drag you back." Chen Qiaoyi said mischievously.
"Haha, that's good." Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile.
After eating, everyone cleared away the dishes together. Zhou Ziwen went to the backyard to look at the bees again.
It is getting dark now, and these bees are staying quietly in the hive.
Zhou Ziwen observed for a while and found that there was no problem, he felt relieved.
Back in the house, Zhou Ziwen and the two sisters started to wash up and then got on the kang to rest.
This night was another sleepless night. (End of this chapter)
