After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 174: A Transformation

In the next two days, Shi Qingluo made Xiao Hanzheng's letter look older as if it had been written more than ten years ago.

She also asked Xiao Hanzheng to make a lot of beehives.

She put some honey and sprinkled some spiritual water on them.

Then she brought them into the mountains to attract a large swarm of wild bees into the beehives.

After that, Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng went to visit Mo Qingling again and told him about how they wanted to teach everyone how to raise bees.

As expected, Mo Qingling accepted their suggestion.

Ever since the flax workshop and vermicelli workshop opened, their entire county has been flourishing well.

Mo Qingling also used the profits generated from these workshops to buy cement at cost price from the cement workshop in Xiaxi village to pave the roads within the county town.

The next step was having cemented roads to other villages and towns.

The county quickly issued a notice and the bailiffs went to many villages and towns to inform everyone that those who are interested in raising bees could come to the county office to learn tomorrow.

Many people were stunned when they heard that they could raise bees themselves and quite a handful of them expressed their interest in it.

After all, the income from selling honey alone would not be low if they raised them at home.

Therefore, when Shi Qingluo brought Xi Rong and the others to the county office the next day, the place was already full of people, with at least a hundred families.

Everyone was familiar with Shi Qingluo.

Most of the people sitting here had come to learn how to be vermicelli.

Shi Qingluo walked to the front and introduced the benefits of beekeeping to everyone with a smile.

Then, she taught everyone how to raise bees.

She even got someone to bring a lot of pamphlets along.

She wrote down the procedure to raise bees, some precautions, and ways to prevent pest infestation.

She took them to the study room of the Bai family and asked Bai Xu to help print out several hundred copies of it.

After sharing her experience raising bees and the precautions they should take, Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "If you want to raise bees, you can come to me to get a beehive.

"I'll come to your house to give you instructions on how to build more beehives and how to release the bees.

"Be it raising bees or receiving beehives directly from me, it's free."

She then changed the topic. "But I have a condition.

"In the future, when you raise bees, you can handle the honey yourself, but you have to sell the beeswax to Nanshan Cosmetics Workshop.

"Of course, we will add the purchase price in the contract and promise to collect the beeswax every year from now on. It won't be lower than the market price."

This was the only way to motivate everyone to raise bees.

She smiled and asked, "If anyone has any concerns, you can raise them up too."

The people who were sitting and learning how to keep bees smiled and said, "Mdm Shi, if you collect beeswax from us and ensure that we wouldn't make a loss, we won't have any concerns."
