"In addition, bees help pollinate the plants," Chen adds, explaining that beekeeping not only benefits beekeepers but the overall agricultural industry.

According to the Agriculture Ministry, the financial benefit that the bee-driven pollination provides to the agricultural industry is worth nearly 110 times what honey-related products actually make.

Chen and Zhao say the only downside to their work is the long periods away from their children.

Zhao Ransong says she is looking forward to their 8-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter's summer break, when the children will meet them in Shandong.
