It's not just a matter of quantity, but also a matter of quality. The fruits, vegetables, and medicinal herbs produced in the space have a good taste and are full of spiritual energy. For example, if you eat a pomegranate every day for a month, your complexion will be like a reborn person.

So at this moment, Liu Xialian suddenly remembered a very pretentious sentence, I am not interested in money. If you are willing, there will be tens of thousands of tons of high-end fruits every month. How much is this?

With more money, Liu Xia Lian began to think seriously. She returned to the village that day and called more than a dozen people in charge of agriculture to the warehouse, which is the old school.

There is no meeting room for meetings here, and everyone can stand or sit in the office as they please.

Everyone asked, "Boss, what's the matter? You rarely hold meetings."

"I went to Hong Kong a while ago and broadened my horizons. I found that the world outside is completely different from ours. They don't care about being full, but about eating delicious and healthy food. Good things are not afraid of being expensive. As long as the quality is good, the price is not a problem at all. In addition to ginseng, deer antlers and ganoderma lucidum, we have another treasure, which is the honey from our Northeast, rapeseed honey, linden honey, and of course acacia honey and jujube honey in the interior."

Everyone understood as soon as they heard that this was about beekeeping. There were quite a lot of beekeepers nearby, but most of them were just small groups of bees, selling some honey to earn some pocket money, and it was impossible for them to make a lot of money.

"Boss, are you planning to raise bees? Raising bees on a large scale is very troublesome."

"We have our own trucks, so transportation is more convenient. The main thing is that we can produce high-standard honey for export in exchange for what we need. Don't say I won't give you a chance. Now we need a person in charge of beekeeping. You are all the persons in charge of farms, vegetable transportation, and greenhouses. Being the person in charge of beekeeping is equivalent to being the person in charge of a factory. Not counting the elite soldiers under you, there are eight million people in chaos."

Li Xiaofei is now in charge of the goose farm and the roe deer farm. The most important thing is that he doesn't know how to keep bees, so he didn't say anything, and no one else moved either. This is a very professional job, and if you can't do this, you will be confused when you open the beehive.

But the treatment is quite attractive, almost the same level as the factory manager, with money, car and everything.

Li Meng, the man who once borrowed money to pay for his wife's childbirth, stood up and said, "Boss, I, I, I am willing to be the factory director. I have ten groups of Northeastern black bees and I will bring them back to the bee farm."

"Can we develop 50 apiaries and 5,000 bee colonies within three years?"

"It's definitely not enough to rely on these ten groups alone. We can definitely do it by purchasing a few hundred more groups."

"It's settled. The salary is 220 yuan, travel expenses are reimbursed, a light truck and a double-row pickup truck are provided, and 5% of the shares of the bee farm are held. Tomorrow, I will officially start working and setting up the bee farm. Everyone else can go home."

Everyone else left one after another. Everyone was envious and jealous of the apiary manager, but more of them were convinced that it would be impossible to do the job without this skill.

Everyone else left, only Li Meng stayed.

Liu Xialian arranged, "We will have the staff assigned in the next two days, and then we will go south to Fujian to buy bees in the spring and collect rapeseed flowers. Then we will go north to collect acacia honey, jujube honey, and vitex honey, and then return to the northeast to collect linden honey. You don't have to worry about the vehicles coming and going. I will arrange a fleet of vehicles for you to deploy. Recently, ten large trucks have been added, so you don't have to worry about the transportation."

Li Meng was extremely shocked. He thought beekeeping meant raising hundreds of bee colonies in a certain area, and large-scale beekeeping was just a matter of finding more areas. He didn't expect that beekeeping actually meant driving all over the country. This was too exaggerated.

“Are you sure you can make money this way?”

"Yes, there are masters in Shandong who do this. I will contact the masters there, buy 300 swarms of bees, and then ask them to give me technical guidance. The future depends on you. We must have at least several thousand swarms of bees directly managed by ourselves, and then we can develop contract breeders. It's still the same old rule. You don't have to make a profit within three years. If you still can't do it well after three years, you can stop doing it. Tell me, how much start-up capital do you need?"

Li Meng considered the current price of Western honeybees. A group of them costs about 30 yuan, plus the beehives and various tools, a box of bees costs about 50 yuan. He only needs to wait for the rapeseed nectar to be collected in spring, and then he will start to make money. Therefore, it doesn't cost much. A start-up capital of 10,000 yuan is enough. He immediately stretched out a finger.

Liu Xia Lian nodded and said, "Li Meng, you are too timid. Okay, one hundred thousand is one hundred thousand. I wish you success. In three years, give me a bee farm with 5,000 bee colonies directly managed and at least one hundred contract bee farms."

The bee farm was established, and the director, Li Meng, named it Baishan Original Honey Company. Why is it called Original Honey? It means that this bee farm only produces capped honey, which is not only authentic, but also ripe.

Li Meng considered that this business must be not easy, but the basic salary is 220 yuan a month, and there is a 5% dividend every year if it is profitable. He may not make money in the first few years, but after three or four years, he will not have to run around. By then, the annual salary plus dividends will be tens of thousands of yuan. Life is so good, it's beautiful just thinking about it.

Li Meng went back happily to prepare, and told his wife about it. He had nothing to worry about except that he spent less time at home each year, and of course he couldn't start with just the ten swarms of Black Wind bees at home. There was an old beekeeper in the south of the county who didn't want to do it anymore, and he had more than a hundred swarms.

The trucks equipped by the factory could just hold all the bees, so they were all loaded up, three people, three trucks, and a pickup truck. First, they bought a hundred or so swarms of black bees from the south of the county, then went to Shandong to get three hundred swarms of Italian bees, and then contacted places in Fujian where there were many rapeseed flowers, and then went all the way south to southern Fujian.

When they arrived here, a group of people from the Northeast including Li Meng were shocked. They thought that people had to wear thick cotton-padded jackets everywhere in the world at this time, but they didn't expect that here there were flowers blooming everywhere.

Four hundred groups of bees are divided into four areas for breeding and production. Although Liu Xia Lian said that there is no requirement for profit within three years, since we are doing this, we are definitely not aiming to lose money.

The bee farm was not short of money, so it directly introduced beekeeping technicians from Shandong and the south, offering a monthly salary of 120 yuan to train them in the techniques of beekeeping and queen replacement. Everyone learned very quickly, and it was like a rural farmer coming to the city and opening their eyes. They learned what a syrup queen and a honey queen are. They also learned how to fight wasps and how to choose a site. In short, everything is difficult at the beginning, and starting a business started as an apprentice. Every day, I wore a bee hat to check the bee colony. From the initial fear to proficiency, I didn't know how many times I was stung by bees, and the wounds on my arms were like embroidery.

That day, Liu Xia Lian was checking production at the factory when her dedicated phone rang. It was Uncle Qi who asked, "Xia Lian, did you and Wang Yong take over a jade mine in northern Myanmar?"
