[Why?]
[It was the principle of the great monk. Because you always collected only the right amount]
[Unlike Big Monk, I want to pick honey twice a year. Is it possible?]
[I think I can do it]
I wanted to hear that. Western bees can harvest honey twice, in early summer and in autumn. That’s a lot of harvest.

On the other hand, the native bee was only once in early autumn. Due to the low yield, it was not enough to withstand the rainy season.
I thought if I used bee rice, I could do it twice.
When I heard the positive answer, I felt relieved in my stomach.
After completing the task, I parked the car in front of Kim Kkot-nim’s grandmother’s house. The old woman in the yard came running with a smile.
“Today, Deokmyeong is here.”
“Yes, Grandma. How have you been?”
“I’m always fine.”
Grandma said while stroking the plum blossom’s cheeks. He looked happy.
Kim Kkotnim’s grandmother was also a poet. In her poems, there was a lot of content about longing.
Looking at it now, it was like longing for my daughter.
“I will go now. I have work.”
“Let’s go eat and go. I’ve finished eating.”
“I will definitely go eat next time. I have an important appointment today.”
“Then wait a minute.”
Grandma Kim Kkot-nim entered the house. I made eye contact with the plum. It was like she didn’t know.
Grandma came out with a paper bag. It was an envelope with a bulging stomach.
“Thank you so much. I met Deokmyung and only good things happened. This is the trouble we brought with our daughter.”
She handed me a paper bag.
“no. it’s okay.”
“No, if an adult gives it to you, take it.”
I was forced to take it. I thought it would be rude if I didn’t take it.
“Go now.”
I left the two mothers and daughters behind and started the engine.
When I opened the envelope slightly, I could smell the fragrant smell.
it was medicine. Traditional medicine tossed with honey.
I lowered the window and breathed in the air of my hometown to my heart’s content. A warm heart filled the depths of my heart.

Now, the only thing left to do is to go see Yushin Hwang.
* * *
arrived in Sangju. I saw an old-fashioned hanok.
It was the house of Yushin Hwang. Hwang Jung-ah, who was in the yard, came out.
“How you doing?”
“Thank you, I had a good time.”
“By the way, where is your teacher?”
“I’ve been waiting outside for my disciple to come.”
That was then.
I could feel the tiger energy behind my back.
A man with a large appearance and tiger eyebrows stepped forward.
“Why are you so late?”
It’s not too late. It was on time arrival.
“Come on, let’s go in.”
Hwang Yu-shin pushed me on the back. Power was always a business. We went into a warm room.
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Ms. Hwang Jung-ah brought out the car.
“It’s mugwort tea. Drinking it will warm your hands and feet.”
Hwang Jung-ah left the car and left. When I came before, I had seen her dry mugwort. It looked like it was made at that time.
Yushin Hwang turned his gaze to the cloth placed next to me.
“It is a gift. Teacher.”
I handed him a present. He smiled and unwrapped the gift package.
“This is the famous Jizo Honey.”
“It is nectar honey.”
“I only heard words. I’ve been living for a long time, so things like this happen.”
He immediately tasted the honey. In the old man’s face, a bright boy’s face appeared.
“The smell of the forest from honey is excellent.”
After a pleasant tasting, he looked me in the face. He had a look on his face that he wanted to ask.
“What are you planning to do next?”
It was a pretty serious conversation. I was very curious as to why I started beekeeping right after I learned how to farm dried persimmons.
“Do you remember what I said?”
“What do you mean?”
“I promised to bring the youth of the city to the countryside.”
“I still vividly remember your eyes back then.”
Yushin Hwang took a sip of tea. It was a look on his face that reminded him of that scene.
“It is not easy to attract people with dried persimmons alone. In addition, dried persimmons are intensive farming in winter.”
“Like you said, dried persimmons are made in a short period of time. Still, it is a high-income crop. I wonder if the youth of the city will find beekeeping attractive.”
“The reason I was able to do well with dried persimmons was because I was a farmer’s child. It was possible because of the teacher’s teaching and the area of Hadong. Urban people don’t have the same base as me. Besides, agriculture is an up-front cost. It’s a difficult thing to do.”
Yushin Hwang was deep in thought. It was a face of agreement.
“Beekeeping is an agriculture that can be started with relatively little capital. Even in cities, education is possible.”
He rolled his eyes. I was surprised to hear that it is possible even in the city.
“In terms of product quality, it has the advantage that it can be processed like dried persimmons.”
“You mean processing honey?”
“Bees produce propolis, beeswax, pollen and royal jelly in addition to honey. I’ve already made a test product. Beeswax candles and soap. If you can make processed products, your profits will increase even more. We plan to make young people come to the countryside just as a bee searches for flowers.”
“Your insight is also unique. I am looking at the forest and the trees.”
Yushin Hwang made a happy expression on his face.
“So speaking, I have one request.”
“Tell me.”
“When I was learning dried persimmons, he taught me how to use wax. Do you remember what I said when I said that it was a precious thing I got from a master?”
“I remember.”
“I want to meet him.”
“I wonder why you want to meet him.”
“I’m thinking of getting more bees.”
“Don’t even think about going home today.”
Hwang Yushin jumped up and put on his coat. I asked to go see him right away.
He never procrastinated once he had made a decision.
I sat in the driver’s seat and waited for Hwang Yu-shin.
Hwang Yushin finished the call and got into the car.
“I made an appointment for dinner with the bastard.”
Hwang Yushin said as he got into the car. The driving force was also famous.
We arrived at a Korean restaurant in the suburbs. It would be a shame to call it a restaurant. It was almost like a palace.
When Hwang Yu-shin entered, the manager recognized him.
“Teacher, come this way.”
Hwang Yu-shin entered the interior. The neatness unique to a Korean restaurant made me feel good.
When I opened the door decorated with traditional patterns, the room I had reserved came out. It was an atmosphere that seemed like a meal for the nobles of the Joseon Dynasty.
We took our seats.
“Because Yangga is always slow.”
Yushin Hwang said with a smile. I thought we were too fast rather than he was slow.
The door opened and a man with white whiskers appeared.
He was smaller than Yushin Hwang, but he looked plump and stout.
“Long time no see.”
He smiled lightly at Hwang Yu-shin’s greeting. He seemed to be more interested in me than Yushin Hwang.
“Are you the disciple Hwang was proud of?”
Yang Dae-ho asked as he sat down.
“That’s right. He is my lover.”
Hwang Yushin said with a proud expression.
Food came out soon. Hwang Yu-shin and Yang Dae-ho talked about things they couldn’t before.
I just stood by and listened.
The main point was to take it out after dinner.
After eating, the car came out.
“Then why did you suddenly call me? Bring your disciple.”
Yang Dae-ho was also keen. I thought that bringing a disciple to a place like this had a different purpose.
“This guy started beekeeping.”
“okay?”
Yang Dae-ho turned his head and looked at my face quietly.
“What does that have to do with today’s meeting?”
“I’ll sell you some bees.”
Yang Dae-ho nodded his head. It looked like he had read Yushin Hwang’s mind.
“If that’s the case, it’s not difficult.”
“please.”

Now it was my turn to go.
“Yes, how many bottles do you need?”
“I think it will be about a hundred barrels.”
In case u have any questions u can refer to uwumtl dot com for references
Not only Yang Dae-ho but Ira Hwang Yu-shin also looked surprised.
“I have thirty beehives. I’ll sell you three of them.”
“Thank you, I will buy it. We will give you the price you want.”
I said politely.
“But what are you going to do with a lot of punishment? Aren’t you too greedy for money?”
Hwang Yushin’s eyebrows twitched at Yang Dae-ho’s words.
“I have no intention of getting only honey. The reason I raise bees on a large scale is because I have a different dream.”
Yushin Hwang nodded his head. It was a look I was expecting to hear from what I said at home.
Yang Dae-ho and Hwang Yu-shin were different kinds of humans.
Hwang Yu-shin wanted rural villages to be hope for young people, while Yang Dae-ho was not interested in such things.
His attention was on the other side.
It was also information that I learned when I was an advertising planner.
He didn’t hit directly like Yushin Hwang, but he was also one of the masters I managed. Of course he knew the information.
Yang Dae-ho was a fierce environmentalist.
“I plan to create an eco-friendly certification system using native bees.”
“Eco-friendly certification?”
Yang Dae-ho had a puzzled expression on his face.
“Indigenous bees, unlike Western bees, are vulnerable to pesticides. You can only live in places that use organic methods.”
“You are right.”
“Bees help pollinate plants. Farmers who grow organically will also welcome native bees. It is my dream to certify eco-friendly agricultural products as native bees. We need a lot of native bees to make that dream come true.”
“It’s an eco-friendly certification, so if that’s the case, you have to do it big. I made a mistake without knowing it.”
“no. I should have told you well from the beginning.”
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Made eye contact with him and said. I was really sorry.
“Master Hwang, I misunderstood.”
Yang Dae-ho bowed his head and apologized to Hwang Yu-shin. Hwang Yu-shin raised his hand and said it was okay.
“But what about this? I can’t sell all the bees I have.”
Yang Dae-ho made a troubled expression.
“As promised, you only need to sell three bottles.”
“What about the rest?”
“I have an idea.”
“If there is anything I can do to help, I will definitely help.”
Things worked out as planned.
He was planning to secure at least a hundred barrels through him.
go together to go far
Hwang Yu-shin brought Yang Dae-ho home.
After dinner we had a drink.
“Have another drink and go.”
“It’s okay. That’s it.”
Hwang Yu-shin said to Yang Dae-ho. They drank quite a bit.
I haven’t even had a drink in my mouth. I had to drive.
Yang Dae-ho seemed to want to talk more with me.
That was the reason he came here.
“Jeong-ah, bring me some drinks.”
Hwang Jung-ah nodded her head. Every time I see her, I can feel her, but she was like an honest cow.
He lived with his picky older brother and served him, but never complained.
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Ms. Hwang Jung-ah brought the table as if she had prepared in advance.
“Now let’s have a drink together.”
Yang Dae-ho handed him a glass of wine and said.
“yes. old man.”
“You are old. just feel free to call It’s called Yang Teacher.”
“What is Yang-sensei, it’s just Yang.”
Yushin Hwang said with a smile. Yang Dae-ho also accepted with a smile.
Yang Dae-ho’s face was flushed red.
Compared to Hwang Yu-shin, he seemed to be weak in alcohol.
“Anyway, I’m curious what you think. How many bees are you planning to sell?”
He had a drunken face, but his tone was unwavering.
“I know that Ms. Yang has a connection with the beekeeping farm. Most of them are breeding native bees.”
“Not most. Everyone I know raises native bees.”
It looked a little uncomfortable. He seemed to know why. He was a native bee devotee.
It was believed that only native bees were more beneficial to the environment.
continued to speak.
“When native bees harvest honey, native honey is produced. But the reality is not. It’s hard to even call it local honey.”
“How do you do that?”
Yang Dae-ho had a drunken face.
Indeed it was. Even at this time, it was difficult to call native honey a native honey.
This is because the name of native honey does not exist in the standards of the Food Safety and Drug Administration.
Farmhouses that sell native honey write ‘honey’ and then write ‘collected by native bees’ in small letters below it.
This was due to the lack of detailed research and standards for native bees.
“I would like to improve the awareness of local honey.”
“That’s very welcome, but what does that have to do with getting your hives for sale?”
“There is a big connection.”
“To be specific, I would like to join forces with native bee farmers. I need your help with that.”
“Are you joining forces?”
Yushin Hwang, who was listening quietly next to him, nodded.
He seemed to know what I was thinking.
“If we come together systematically, we can create a local honey certification system.”
