This is my first time to closely watch the site of Chinese beekeepers. And it is my first time to chat with the old beekeeper with about 40 years' experience.
This afternoon we chatted a lot about his experience including his happiness and sufferings. In Chinese there is a word figuring him, which is the old Jianghu meaning he has many stories about his life of keeping bee.
I admire his life with freedom. Every year he will go through from South China to North China about several thousands of kilometers. When I ask whether he is tired of the long distance movement, the answer is that it is a kind of pleasure. At the same time, I watch his happiness from his eyes.
He told me if the weather is good enough, the profit will be better, but if it suffers the serious windy, rainy and cold day, the risk will be raised, even though he will lose a lot as well. For example, during the winter he will stay at home, then in order to keep the bee, he has to buy the sugar for them. And he owns 100 boxes of bees, he said, and the cost will be at 30 thousand RMB throughout the winter.
For all i know, the government has issued the related policy for the beekeeper to afford some capital to help them in the winter. But he said he never got anything from the government.
When talking about the gains in the site, he said he had to take some lose because of the bad weather recently. But In the evening he will go to another site with the blooming flowers and expect he will have a good harvest.
My best wishes to him forever. Good luck, old guy. See you next season of blooming flowers.
