The couple wear protective coats and carry goods every day they work. They need to drive three to five kilometers each time they seek honey. Their gathering method - man and nature living in harmony - has been passed on for 100 years, which means one honey source can only be gathered once and the rest of it is saved for the cliff bees. Therefore, when they finish gathering the honey in Pu'er city, Yunnan province, they will continue to go north to Lincang city, Dehong Dai and Jingpo autonomous prefecture, Baoshan city, and Nujiang Lisu autonomous prefecture to gather honey there. May is the last month to gather cliff honey, so they traveled 40,000 kilometers within half a year driving their van.
