Luo Yujing: A person’s life of 10,000 kilometers seeks redemption 7

Where is your original intention: There is no pure land in your pure land, and there is no other shore in the other shore

In this life, you are looking for a pure land, the bliss you dream of The world always seems to have infinite charm to attract you.

If you don’t go to Xinjiang, you won’t know how big China is, and if you don’t go to Ili, you won’t know the beauty of Xinjiang. This Yili slogan was verified on the way back to Yili from Chengdu. When you break into Tangbula, the 100-meter gallery in Yili, all poems and artistic expressions are superfluous.

My hometown, beautiful Ili! Mother River - Ili River, you are like a tolerant mother, nourishing every inch of Ili land with tolerance and love. I am like a cloud, drifting from east to west, from south to north, wandering around is my destiny. And Yili always makes me stop with its unique charm. I want to find my pure land along its river. Along the Ili River, water and trees are the unique love of the Ili people. The river runs along Yining City, Nileke County, Xinyuan County, Gongliu County, Tekes County, Zhaosu County, Chasu County in the northwest. It flows through counties and cities such as Bouchard County, and the valley has a landscape outline surrounded by mountains on three sides: north, east, and south. Beautiful snow-capped mountains nourish vast grasslands. We walked along the Ili River. The forests, river valleys, peaks, grasslands and pastoral ethnic minority cultural features along the way are unique and charming sights of Ili.

It has been more than half a month since I returned to Yili, and the funds for the Juejue project have not been well resolved. Regardless of packaging design, product resources, or connecting channels such as the market and team, every link is full of difficulties, but as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you will never give up easily. Juejue Medicinal Ingredients Series Honey is an indispensable product for you. Before returning to Chengdu, you decide to meet this Tangbula black bee elder who lives low-key on the grassland and has stories to tell: Mr. Tian, ??you also want to explore the code of life on the grassland nectar black bee.

Mr. Lu Xun said: "Learning must be like a bee, which picks many flowers before it can make honey. If it only stings in one place, the income will be very limited." Nature is our best teacher , it can give us thinking and enlightenment about life with its unique great wisdom.

That day, I set off from Kekedala early in the morning and drove along the 315 National Highway along the river to Tangbula Bee Farm.

The scenery along the way made me relax. Speaking of which, this is my second time going to Tangbula Bee Farm, and my mood is self-evident. The first time was in May 2015. Our team also went to the Nilek Bee Farm. The charming scenery outside the car window completely pulled you from the real world into a fairy tale world. The yellow and green grassland, the layers of hills, occasionally a few horses, cattle and sheep walking around in the green grassland, they slowly graze. It was a pure world, an evocative world. When you arrive at the grassland again, you are once again enveloped in all the beautiful things. Nilek County, it seems like you have a deep love relationship with it. There are not only charming natural scenery here, but also the culture of various ethnic groups wrapping the grassland, making it a unique cultural feature of Nilek County. In the mountainous area of ??Nilek County, there are at least 31 ethnic minorities living including Han, Uyghur, Kazakh, Hui, Mongolian, Xibe, Uzbek, and Russian. You can usually see some ethnic minority villages on both sides of the road, where there are people wearing different clothes. People in national clothes.

Curiosity about all things is like love for culture. You always stop the car in the charming colors and take your camera to record all the scenery. Drive from Ili to Nilek County, and then start from Nilek County and go down the Kashgar River. There are countless scenery along the way. Not far away, the Kashgar River flows down from the Tianshan Mountains and crosses the Tangbula Grassland. Walking into the grassland, you feel like you have entered a paradise. Walking along this river, the Kashgar River flows among this picturesque grassland. The Tianshan Mountains are still crowned with white snow and look down on the earth, as calm and calm as they have been since ancient times. Snow Ridge spruce is the tallest vegetation on the slopes of the Tianshan Mountains. Together with the grassland, they form a landscape of intertwined forests and grasslands.

Although National Highway 315 is under construction, you can still enjoy the grassland on the bumpy road. Many times in life, it is nothing more than this. There is light and darkness. Since darkness and light are the same, why not experience and understand the book of life with an elegant attitude.

Perhaps, some of the stories in this book may make you helpless, or they may make you amazed. No matter what, you are the scholar who walks in the book.

"We borrow their roads, so we have to be polite." This is natural civilization. You see the cattle and sheep walking on the road treating you politely. They have the same unique etiquette as you do, making you feel unprecedented joy and happiness. The journey to Tangbula Bee Farm is more than 200 kilometers away. It should be three or four hours away, but you walked for seven hours to get to the apiary. Tangbula Bee Farm, this small apiary town is so quiet and noisy that it carries the development of a black bee industry in Ili, Xinjiang and the diligence and wisdom of the Nilek people. Every time I arrive here, I feel an unprecedented peace of mind. When I met Mr. Tian, ??the founder of Tangbula Black Bee Co., Ltd., he had been waiting for me for a long time. Fast forward a few years, and the old man’s industry is getting bigger and bigger. Even when the economic situation is bad, his Tangbula company is getting stronger and stronger. A three- or four-story high-rise building stands in front of him, a design research and development center, and an exhibition center. When the old man saw me arriving, he happily invited me to his office for tea and treated me with honey.

The Ili Black Bee is distributed in the Ili, Tacheng, and Altay regions of northwest Xinjiang. The black bee has a large body, black color, strong fecundity, weak swarming ability, cold tolerance and disease resistance. It is one of the four largest bees in the world. It is an excellent black bee strain (ecological type) that has been proven by long-term production practice to adapt to the harsh local climate and nectar source characteristics. It is a valuable bee species resource in China.

The old man in front of me is already over seventy years old, but he is still full of energy. He is the most pragmatic senior among the Xinjiang companies I have worked with in the past few years. A few years ago, I wanted to advertise Tangbula honey. When I was doing the promotion, the old man was stubborn and said he would not make these things. If you eat honey, tell me, I only need to keep good honey and serve my customers well, and the rest is superfluous. He doesn't do advertising, his philosophy is to make good products steadily, and all customers will come in a steady stream! At that time, the team felt that the old man was old-fashioned and had no concept of new Internet thinking and brands. Until I arrived at Tangbula Black Bee again, many companies were faltering due to vicious competition, but he was as stable as a rock.

After not seeing each other for three years, the old man warmly called me Ronaldinho. Asked me how my current situation was, I told him what I had experienced in my life in the past few years, and that I had also encountered many ups and downs. This time I came here specifically to seek cooperation and ask questions. Looking at me in front of him, he still kept a friendly smile, then picked up the various Tangbula black honeys on the table and said that he would make me a Tieguanyin honey tea that I had never drunk before. I said, this is the first time I have heard that honey and good tea take over each other's taste and lose their original natural taste. The old man said you will know after drinking it. So, he brought me a cup of unique Tieguanyin black honey tea, and I drank it. The tea was astringent in my mouth, and the sweet and natural fragrance invaded my lips and tongue from the throat. You felt the unique layered taste, bitter but bitter. Sweet. The old man smiled and said, look at whether this is your bowl of tea.

Looking at the old man, I felt an unprecedented power. The 70-year-old man in front of me patiently told me about his business management methods. He said that if you do one thing well and do it well, anything will happen. Too much ambition and desire will actually take away your energy. He has maintained his unique style over the decades. When I came to visit the old man, I learned from the beekeepers at the apiary that the old man was a legend. He had been working hard in business for many years and was worth tens of millions. Later, his son's car accident caused him to lose his true love and the direction of his life. He spends his time squandering money and gambling and playing cards. Later, I lost all my assets and calmed down for many years. I felt that I should not lose my life because of this. In 2008, he arrived at the apiary and started raising black bees, and began to set new goals in life.

The old man asked me to continue drinking tea and told me about the wisdom of black bees. It says, you see, we humans are sometimes inferior to the animals and plants in nature, take our black bees as an example.

You see, they are hard-working by nature. Wherever there are flowers, there are little bees. They work from sunrise to sunset, working for more than ten hours a day. The labor that bees put into collecting is very amazing. According to calculations Bees need to fly 360,000-450,000 kilometers to brew 1 kilogram of honey, which is equivalent to flying around the earth's equator 8-11 times. To collect pollen, bees need to visit 80-200 flowers each time they go out, and they can only bring them with them. Two pollen balls of about 15 mg are returned. If they want to collect one kilogram of pollen, bees need to go out and collect more than 66,000 times. It is even more difficult for bees to collect propolis. Each bee colony can only produce about 100 grams of propolis a year. The Ili black bee queen has strong egg-laying power and a steep breeding rhythm. According to the results of the two-year breeding period, the average number of eggs laid per day is 1,181 eggs, with the highest number reaching 2,680 eggs. The old man looked at me and said with a smile, "How much does a little bee have to pay to give us sweetness?"

Of course, for a species to be so industrious and intelligent, it also encounters many survival difficulties.

As of 1926, the Ili black bee was also good news to us Ili people, although it also experienced ups and downs in this grassland. It is a symbol of friendship. Back then, when the Russians brought them to Ili, Xinjiang from Kazakhstan in Asia, one of them was Stifan Kandenolt (КндновотС). There were only a dozen swarms of black bees when he brought them in. The Yili grassland has lush plants, a suitable climate, and a high honey production. In addition, the Russians like to eat honey. The black bees brought in quickly multiplied among the Russians in Yining City, and gradually expanded to the Uygur and Kazakh people. Raised in the clan.

Black bees also survived after nine deaths. Among them, there is a widely circulated story about bears eating honey in Gouxionggou Scenic Area on Tangbula Grassland. In the 1960s and 1970s, whenever it was time to collect honey, the bears on the mountain would touch the beehives while the beekeeper was not at home. Two big bear paws would hold the beehives and rush to the river, submerging the beehives into the river. After ten In a few minutes, after taking out the beehive, almost all the violent black bees will die, and the bear can enjoy the black honey in peace.

Whether it is the smart bear eating honey with wisdom, or the Ili black honey growing on the Tangbula grassland, it gives us food for thought with its unique diligence and united wisdom. In the land of Yili, the unique geographical environment and grassland living space have given black bees the wisdom to survive. Before mainland apiaries came to Ili to release bees, no black bee pests or diseases were found. After the inland bee farms came to Xinjiang to release bees, the black bees began to be infected with larval diseases, paralysis, Varroa mites and other diseases. However, the black bees have strong disease resistance. Even after experiencing several hardships, they still survived tenaciously in the Ili Valley. , continues to this day.

The old man told me while inviting me to drink tea.

He said, I like to walk into the grassland, walk into the bee farm, and walk into the buzzing world to feel the life of bees. They are not only hard-working and kind-hearted species, united and loving, but also know how to survive. Between 1,800 and 2,500 meters above sea level, they have to spend their lives collecting all kinds of herbs to make honey, and even die in order to achieve harmony. Especially in the season when food is scarce, they always share the little food in their bodies with the queen bee and the younger bees. Therefore, when we see bees starving to death in the apiary, they always starve to death collectively. And when faced with invasion by foreign enemies, the little bees show extraordinary courage, always rushing to pounce on the enemy first, even if they die together with the enemy. Therefore, the perfection of all things, the natural world of life, knowing how to balance oneself and dedicate oneself is also what we humans need to learn.

It makes sense for us to make good Tangbula Black Bee products for so many years. Once you understand the black bee, understand the culture conveyed by the black bee, and understand its unique wisdom, coupled with the nourishment of hundreds of flowers and plants on our Tangbula prairie, you will be able to have your own exhibition space in such an environment. , can contribute a lifetime to mankind. This is also the spirit of honey culture we learn. People need to examine themselves in nature.

Indeed, I have learned wisdom from bees. In the grassland world, I also learned about the survival of all things and the thinking about life. When I walked out of this grassland, I saw another world. On that unique afternoon, the old man first invited me to drink tea and then took me to eat the most distinctive local beef. He was more like an old friend.

Every time he goes there, he asks me to drink a few glasses of wine with him, chat about honey, and talk about the hard-working beekeepers in Yili, which are all my blessings.

If you can walk into a bee farm, walk into Tangbula grassland, and experience the wisdom of black honey on this grassland, it will be a life without regrets. That afternoon, my car was on a quiet asphalt road. Cattle and sheep occasionally drove by, and beekeepers were taking care of black bees on the grassland beside the road. When I saw them guarding the grassland day and night, focusing on the hardworking bees, my heart was filled with incomparable respect. Some people say that honey creates wisdom and wealth for humans, while others say that honey contributes throughout their lives. They rely on each other for survival. I have traveled many times but cannot understand the wisdom of this land in words. I stand in the vast grassland and look at this land in the distance. The green grassland and the winding roads surround a beekeeper and a group of hard-working and kind-hearted people. Bee, and I am so small.

Tangbula, beautiful Tangbula! I am like an unnecessary intruder, unable to adapt to this land.

How many times has the old man said, why don’t you rent a yard and create here? There are infinite possibilities and wisdom here to keep you quiet, and they are calling your sleeping thoughts to awaken. But every time I stand on this poetic grassland, tears are always in my eyes. I really want to find the rules of survival and live a worry-free life in a quiet village. As life and death go hand in hand, I have no chance to meditate, and I always lose my true nature in that "greed". Standing there, I sighed endlessly: "You are afraid, you are afraid, you are afraid that your impure heart will pollute this pure land; you are afraid, you are afraid, you are afraid of disturbing this tranquility; you are afraid, you are afraid that you will not be able to bear the tears. The intertwined lines of poetry use escape as forgetfulness. You look at it affectionately and shake your head countless times. You have no chance to be with you in this life, and you will be a cow or a horse in the next life..."

Walking back to Ili from Tangbula Bee Farm. On the way, I walked into the grassland again, walked into the gallery, walked into the place where black bees flew, I saw the Kazakh herdsmen riding horses, I saw the red huts and the green grassland, I saw To that insignificant self. Along the way, I was thinking about Mr. Tian’s words and his life path. A person only focuses on one thing in his life. If you do one thing well and do it professionally, it will be great. In this life process, the suffering and waiting we have experienced are all worth it, just like the black bees introduced from Russia, they have gone through many ups and downs. "This world is actually like this. There is no right choice at all. We just have to work hard to make the original choice correct." You see the green grassland, the cattle and sheep grazing freely, you see the smoke Under the yurt, on a piece of pure grassland, you are passing through like white clouds. You put down your phone and started the car, heading towards another road of no return. In this vast and pure land of grassland, you are reminded of the American poet Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken":

Two roads diverged in the yellow wood,

It's a pity that I couldn't set foot at the same time,

I stood at that intersection for a long time,

I looked towards a road,

until it disappeared deep into the jungle. at.

But I chose another road,

It is full of wild grass and very quiet, which makes it more attractive and beautiful;

Although on this road There are few traces of travelers on the path.

The ground was covered with fallen leaves early that morning, and both roads were uncontaminated by footprints.

Ah, leave a path to see you another day!

But I know the path stretches endlessly, and I'm afraid I won't be able to turn back.

Maybe many years later, somewhere,

I will look back on the past with a sigh: Two roads diverged in a wood -

And I Choosing the path with fewer connections has determined the path of my life.
