What Liu Che said was a bit hard to pronounce, but Tang Qi basically understood it.

This guy just wanted to eat honey, so he went to poke the honeycomb.

In fact, in the early Han Dynasty, both sugar and honey were quite precious.

At that time, there was only one way to make sugar, which was to consume a large amount of grain and boil it to eventually form a viscous form of maltose, which was called maltose.

Food is inherently precious, and the candy made from a large amount of food is naturally even more precious. Only the top nobles or royal families can barely afford it.

As for the preciousness of honey, let alone it.

In the early Han Dynasty, there was no bee-proof clothing.

If you want to pick honey, you can only risk your life to pick it, but you may not be able to pick it.

It just so happens that Liu Che is a sweet tooth.

After holding it in for such a long time on the desert island, he finally saw a beehive. Naturally, he couldn't hold it back.

It's a pity that his strength does not allow him to be arrogant.

Instead of collecting honey, he was stung into a pig's head.

"well!"

Tang Qi sighed and said: "You said you are serious. If you want to eat honey, just say so. I have plenty here, why do you need to take risks?"

Liu Che's eyes widened in an instant and he said, "Isn't it right? Mr. Tang, do you really have honey?"

Tang Qi shrugged his shoulders and said: "Of course, honey is not a rare thing. I have saved three big jars!"

Liu Che swallowed a mouthful of saliva, with a look of disbelief on his face.

The total amount of honey in the entire imperial kitchen is only about one or two jars. It is incredible that there are three big jars here.

Liu Che couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Tang, where did you get so much honey?"

Tang Qi rolled his eyes and said: "Of course it was picked from the beehive. Do you think it came from the faucet?"

Liu Che touched his still swollen cheek and asked doubtfully: "When you collect honey from the hive, won't you get stung?"

Tang Qi smiled and said: "The bees I raise myself will naturally not sting me!"

Liu Che's eyes widened again and he said, "Can we still keep bees? Mr. Tang, are you kidding me?"

Not only Liu Che, but also Wei Qing and Wei Zifu were confused.

With their current knowledge, it is naturally difficult to imagine beekeeping.

Tang Qi curled his lips and said: "What's so funny about this? There are already a lot of bees on this island. Is it normal for me to make a few simple beehives to keep bees?"

Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu looked at each other, feeling that this was not normal at all.

Those are bees, bees that can sting.

The kind that could kill someone if you're not careful.

"Mr. Tang, is this beehive a magical artifact of the Immortal Family?"

Liu Che asked Tang Qi tentatively.

This is the only reasonable explanation he can think of. Only the fairy magic weapon can make the bees obey.

Tang Qi said helplessly: "You really lack common sense. It's just a beehive. Just find a carpenter and you can make it in less than an hour. How does it have anything to do with the magic weapon of the Immortal Family?"

Liu Che was stunned and said: "Is it that simple?"

Tang Qi smiled and said: "It's that simple. In the past, we used earth nests to raise bees, and the methods of destroying the nests to get honey were backward. Using beehives is the most scientific method. You should read more!"

Liu Che scratched his head and said: "I have been studying since I was a child. I have read countless books until now, but I have never seen any book that records beehives. This should be unique to Penglai Fairy Island!"

Tang Qilan explained too much, so he simply changed the topic and said: "Let's not talk about beekeeping for now. You were seriously injured trying to eat honey today. I'll make you a cup of honey to quench your cravings!"

Liu Che's eyes suddenly lit up, but he pretended to be reserved and said: "How can this be so embarrassing? It's too troublesome for you, Mr. Tang!"

Tang Qi waved his hand and said: "It's no trouble, just boil some water to brew it. Let's go to my house!"

After saying that, Tang Qi stood up and walked away.

Although Liu Che was still a little weak, he still managed to stand up, and with the support of Wei Qing and Wei Zifu, he followed Tang Qi.

After arriving at the wooden house, Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu consciously sat at the dining table, waiting for Tang Qi's honey water.

Tang Qi first boiled a pot of water, then moved a half-meter-high jar from the corner and placed it on the table.

After opening the mud seal, a strong floral fragrance floated out from the jar.

Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu could not help but twitch their noses, intoxicated by the fragrance of flowers.

"Just by smelling the fragrance, I know it must be good honey!"

Liu Che exclaimed with great excitement.

The swarm of bees raised by Tang Qi were all wild bees at first, and the honey they produced was inherently more fragrant.

In addition, the flowers planted by Tang Qi are also of high quality, so the honey produced is even more fragrant.

"Mr. Tang, can I try this honey?"

Wei Qing asked Tang Qi with longing eyes, like a child full of curiosity.

Tang Qi didn't refuse. He directly picked up a chopstick, dipped it in some honey and handed it to Wei Qing.

Wei Qing swallowed, quickly took the chopsticks, put them in his mouth and shook them.

"Hmm...so sweet!"

Wei Qing narrowed his eyes with an expression of enjoyment on his face.

Raw honey is naturally very sweet, almost cloyingly sweet.

Strictly speaking, it's more like a condiment.

"As long as it tastes sweet to you, the water is boiling now. I'll make honey water for you to drink."

Tang Qi said, then walked out of the wooden house, came to the stove, directly picked up the whole pot of hot water, and returned to the wooden house.

Then, scoop three spoons of honey from the honey jar, pour some into each bowl, and then brew it with hot water. Three bowls of simple honey water are ready.

"Come and have a taste. Drinking honey water in the morning can detoxify, nourish the skin, and prolong life. It is very good for the body!"

Tang Qi said to the three of them in a seductive tone.

In an instant, the three people's eyes widened.

Liu Che directly asked excitedly: "Mr. Tang, this... can drinking this honey water really extend your life and lead to longevity?"

Tang Qi rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "You are really obsessed with immortality, but it is basically impossible to live forever by relying on honey water. Honey water can only make your body healthier!"

Liu Che's face suddenly showed a disappointed look.

He is indeed very obsessed with "immortality".

During the period when Liu Che was in power, basically any alchemist with a little bit of ability would receive preferential treatment, be granted high official status, and be rewarded with large sums of money.

There was even an alchemist named Luan Da who was awarded four general titles by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He also married a princess of the dynasty and rose to prominence.

However, once Liu Che discovered that this warlock was in vain, the punishment would be quite severe, such as breaking the car and so on.
