Chapter 2213

~6 min read 1,049 words

These grains are enough for 370,000 Taoyuan women to eat for a year.

The straw and wheat bran are enough for 100,000 feathered oxen to eat for a year.

We really cannot finish eating it all.

The Experience Fruits are nearly 80 million, weighing about 20,000 tons.

Relatively speaking, the planted amount is not much, but it is enough for 220,000 people to consume daily.

It is enough even to feed those 60,000 serfs.

There is too much.

The Chinese cabbages are continuously being dried and pickled, and we still cannot finish them.

The sugarcane has been consumed quite a bit, though.

Whether they are female soldiers or female artisans, Taoyuan women all love to eat sugarcane.

Moreover, they have great strength and very strong bite force.

Biting sugarcane is no problem at all.

In a single afternoon, they can easily eat dozens of tons.

However, even if we let them eat freely, they would only be able to eat a few thousand tons at most.

The remaining 80,000-plus tons will all be used to make sugar.

Later, we can harvest over 8,000 tons of sugar.

If divided equally among the current population, each Taoyuan woman would get 500 kilograms of sugar.

We still cannot finish eating it all.

Zhuang Ya said, "Zhao Chi, look at this table again. These are the data I estimated based on the number of farmlands and their corresponding yields and times."

Zhao Chi opened it to look.

【Chaoge Town Daily Harvest Table】

【Wheat Grains】 40,000 tons

【Wheat Straw】 30,000 tons

【Experience Fruits】 940,000 units

【Chinese Cabbage】 2,670 tons

【Rough Sugarcane】 1,200 tons

【Table End】

Is the daily average really this much?

Is it this exaggerated?

Can we harvest 40,000 tons of wheat grains daily on average? That is 30,000 tons of flour?

Daily?

Tens of thousands of tons?

Zhao Chi looked at Zhuang Ya in astonishment.

Zhuang Ya smiled and said, "What's wrong? It seems you haven't adapted to our new changes yet."

Zhao Chi sighed, "No... this is too exaggerated, right? Is the data correct?"

Zhuang Ya said, "While you were making it, I had nothing to do, so I kept monitoring Chaoge Town's data. These are all carefully calculated by me and cross-checked with the data in the system. They are absolutely correct."

"So, that means we can produce 30,000 tons of flour daily?"

"Of course. Now we have a total of 142,000 wheat fields. You should know that, right?"

"I know..."

"With the territory data bonus, we can harvest once every 25 days. Each farmland can yield 7 tons of wheat grains, which is equivalent to 280 kilograms of wheat grains per wheat field daily. With 142,000 wheat fields, isn't that 40,000 tons of wheat grains daily?"

"It seems... yes."

"Currently, the coverage of golden manure and such is very low, but we should have already accumulated quite a bit of raw materials. You can go improve it, and we can apply fertilizer shortly after."

"Oh... right, right, right. I will go in a while..."

Calculated this way, it is indeed correct.

Moreover, the farmlands are not increasing for now, since there really isn't enough manpower.

So, the average yield is basically fixed.

Later, with the gradual coverage of golden manure and gold block fertilizer, the data will rise further.

But regardless, the current yield is truly astonishing.

Currently, the territory has a total of 16,000 Taoyuan women, plus 60,000 serfs, 10,000 flower demons, and 1,500 rat people.

Among them, the flower demons only need to eat cabbage, and the number of rat people is small enough to ignore.

So, it is 16,000 Taoyuan women plus 60,000 slave laborers.

The appetite of Taoyuan women is ten times that of ordinary people.

Therefore, the daily grain consumption is equivalent to the amount consumed by 220,000 people.

Thus, it is equivalent to consuming 220 tons of grain daily.

Cabbage has too low calories, only 5% of flour. Zhao Chi basically does not count cabbage as a staple meal, considering it merely a vegetable to accompany rice, so it is not calculated.

So, just calculate based on consuming 220 tons of flour daily.

In the future, the population will indeed keep increasing, but very slowly. Even if we always use the Refugee Talisman, we can only add 80 Taoyuan women daily, equivalent to an increase of 0.8 tons in daily food consumption.

This increase is not fast.

At least in the near future, it can be temporarily ignored.

So, that means we can harvest 30,000 tons of flour daily and consume 220 tons of flour daily.

The gap... seems a bit too large.

This...

Is this the legendary era of immense abundance?

Then... can we gradually begin to aid the world?

The legendary era... is it truly coming?

However, Zhao Chi certainly would not give to others for free; there would be conditions.

Moreover, it is certainly still too early.

The enemy is still before our eyes.

The enemy is still the first thing that must be resolved.

But Zhao Chi still felt greatly inspired.

If the grain problem can be solved, then it can truly liberate a great deal of manpower.

If handled well in the future, perhaps humanity's strength could leap forward.

Thinking a bit too far ahead...

But it is absolutely possible.

Not bad, not bad...

Continue reading below.

Next comes the straw, with an average daily output of 30,000 tons.

Besides this, after 40,000 tons of wheat kernels are ground into flour, 10,000 tons of bran can also be produced.

So, a daily output of roughly 40,000 tons of feed can be achieved.

Currently, the Feathered Oxen consume... 1,600 tons of feed daily, so this is also a consumption of 1,600 tons, a gap against the 40,000 tons of output.

There is absolutely no worry regarding feed as well.

Wait a moment...

The Feathered Oxen consume 1,600 tons of feed daily?

That much?

Zhao Chi specifically opened the data sheet for the Feathered Oxen.

Upon looking, his eyeballs nearly popped out.

The number is... over 47,000?

So many Feathered Oxen?

No wonder Gu Qing just asked me to go look at the Feathered Oxen; it turns out the number of Feathered Oxen has also exploded.

At this number, the fourth generation of Feathered Oxen should already have been born.
