Chapter 2494
Setting aside everything else, let's speak only of the staple grain.
Zhao Chi's territory currently holds 2 million tons of wheat grains, which can be milled into 1.5 million tons of flour and 500,000 tons of wheat bran.
Wheat grains can be stored for a longer time.
Moreover, Zhao Chi's territory has a limited population and not enough laborers to process the wheat grains, so they simply store them in grain form.
When it is time to eat, they will be ground into flour in advance.
If selling to outsiders, they should just sell the wheat grains.
Most lords are also willing to accept them.
After all, being able to store them longer is something everyone wants.
Furthermore, they can be processed to extract bran, which can serve as feed for most magic beasts.
All the Taoyuan Clan, plus the elves from Su Qin's side, plus all the slaves from both territories combined, total approximately 90,000 people.
If consuming only flour, they would use 250 tons of flour per day.
This grain consumption is actually very high; calculated at 10 copper coins per kilogram, the daily cost of the flour consumed amounts to 250 gold coins.
Although Zhao Chi's concept of money has now faded.
He still knows that 250 gold coins is a very large sum.
It is equivalent to the wages of an ordinary worker for 30 years.
But even with all that, in the face of such massive stockpiles, it is still but a drop in the bucket.
The current stockpile is enough for everyone on Zhao Chi's side to eat for 16 years.
And there is still a vast amount of wheat growing continuously, with an average daily output of 3,800 tons.
It is truly impossible to finish eating it all.
So...
Zhao Chi can now sell at least 1.9 million tons of wheat grains.
The price of wheat grains must naturally be a bit lower, roughly 7.5 copper coins per kilogram.
Actually, if calculated purely by price, the selling price of one kilogram of bran is 1 copper coin.
Added together, one kilogram of wheat grains should be 7.75 copper coins.
But it is still for that same reason.
Processing wheat grains requires labor costs, so the market usually sells wheat grains at 7.5 copper coins per kilogram.
However, with the grain shortage.
The price of wheat grains has now risen to 10 copper coins per kilogram, which actually makes calculation easier.
Besides the staple grain wheat.
What Zhao Chi wants to sell also includes Experience Fruits.
He is now different from before; there are some factors he no longer cares about.
After all, even costumes have been given out on a large scale; what does an Experience Fruit amount to?
Zhao Chi's current stockpile contains 29,500 tons of Experience Fruits; at roughly 4,000 per ton, the inventory equals 118 million pieces.
That is correct.
It is a hundred million.
Now, with Zhao Chi and Su Qin, the two lords, they consume about 21,000 Experience Fruits daily.
They have not yet let the slave laborers eat them generally; they are only given small amounts as rewards.
To finish the Experience Fruits in the warehouse, with the current number of people, it would take 15.6 years.
Moreover, the average daily production of Experience Fruits is 1.27 million pieces; it is truly impossible to finish eating them all.
So, at least 110 million Experience Fruits can be sold.
Do not look at this quantity as large.
But the White Tiger Regiment has over 2,700 lords in total, averaging only 40,000 pieces per person.
I hope everyone comes to buy.
Additionally.
Mass slaughter of Feathered Oxen has now begun.
Over these days, a cumulative total of 5,400 adult male Feathered Oxen have been slaughtered.
A total of over 7,500 tons of Feathered Ox meat was harvested; although much has been eaten, over 7,000 tons remain stored in the granary and can be kept for a long time.
At the same time, 1,080 tons of pure fat were also harvested.
The oil-refining team led by Chen Hua has become busy again.
The oil-refining team is divided into two groups: one group produces cooking oil, and the other produces fire oil, with clear division of labor.
But as long as the raw materials arrive, the Quandou Society will be busy.
The Feathered Ox is much larger than an ordinary ox.
Therefore, the ox hide extracted from each Feathered Ox is also very large.
One whole Feathered Ox hide can produce 8 standard leather pieces, and each standard leather piece can make 1 standard leather garment.
These Feathered Oxen yielded a total of 43,200 Feathered Ox hides.
The quality of Feathered Ox hide is very good.
Back then, the advantages of both cowhide and pigskin were transferred entirely onto the Feathered Ox hide.
Feathered Ox hide has high aesthetic appeal, fine texture, good wear resistance, good breathability, and a soft, comfortable texture.
It is very suitable for making leather armor and leather garments.
Zhao Chi originally expected it to become a Tier One rare material.
But there wasn't.
He had personally tried making fashion or leather armor from feather-ox hides; the stats did receive some bonus, but they still didn't reach the level of a Tier One rare material.
That's true.
After all, it was a combination of cowhide and pigskin, not a demon beast hide.
But it didn't matter.
Zhao Chi didn't expect to make money selling feather-ox hides.
The feather-ox hide material was good and very soft.
It was quite suitable for making leather jackets and leather skirts for the women in the territory, so he would keep it for personal use for now.
He would sell it later when the stockpile exploded again.
Of course, feather-oxes also produced feathers.
Every single feather-ox had hundreds of thousands of feathers on its body.
It was completely impossible to count them all.
Zhao Chi had asked the female workers of the breeding team led by Mu Yang to estimate; roughly, each feather-ox had 500,000 feathers.
These feathers were about the same size as those of chickens and ducks, so the quantity was very large.
But it was definitely impossible to collect them all.
Nor was it necessary.
Collect the best quality 10,000 feathers among them and provide them to Su Qin to serve as material for making bows and arrows.
Since they were carefully selected, every single feather was chosen from the top 2% of excellent feathers, so the quality of the feathers was thoroughly up to standard.
The flight trajectory of the arrows made from them was very good.
These 5,400 feather-oxes also produced 54 million superior feathers.
Although the quantity was large, after all, they were feathers, so they didn't take up much space.
After consideration, products related to feather-oxes would not be sold for now.
After all, these didn't count as too many yet; he would consider selling them later when there were more.
Then...
For now, just sell 1.9 million tons of wheat grains and 110 million experience fruits.
Of course, it was impossible to actually register that many all at once.
They had to register in batches.
Sell in batches.
For the first time, just sell 200,000 tons of wheat grains and 10 million experience fruits.
This was at least a reasonable range.
