1 minute read
Owner Yongfu Li says that they simply came in one day and started building their hive. There was a wedding in the family that day, and he viewed the arrival of the bees as a good omen, so instead of driving them away, the man just allowed them to build a home inside his living room.
“The day these bees came was a great day (the wedding), I think they knew it was a great day,” Yongfu Li said.
Li let the bees build their hive and started collecting the honey they produced, three times a year.
He ends up with about 5 kg of honey every time, which he then sells for around 100 RMB ($15) a pound, raking in a total of $450 a year.
