Chapter 779

"How do you get this kind of treasure chest?"

"Same as other treasure chests — you get them from clearing magical beast territories. But random treasure chests are rare, and this kind is even rarer."

"Got it. Then I'll go with you to get it right now."

"So eager? Let's go."

Arriving at Zhao Cang's territory, the supplies and captives inside had grown even more.

It was absolutely packed to the brim.

But Zhao Cang also had two territories, and they were both legitimate.

This territory was used specifically as a large warehouse; the other territory was his main one.

Zhao Cang had his subordinates search for a while before finally pulling this treasure chest out from a corner.

It was a small wooden treasure chest.

Only after getting it in hand did Zhao Chi finally feel at ease.

"Alright, Third Brother, you go ahead and busy yourself. I'll head off first."

Zhao Cang sighed: "Mm, go on. I really do have things to handle."

Zhao Chi teleported straight back to his territory.

Then teleported again to Penglai Village, unable to wait any longer to open the treasure chest.

The chest opened, the light very faint.

As expected, three categories of animals appeared before his eyes.

They were all indeed common livestock and poultry.

Category one:

【Livestock Name】Ox

【Quantity Obtained】1 pair

【Adult Weight】1000 kilograms

【Growth Cycle】15 months

【Pregnancy and Production Cycle】9 months

【Average Offspring】1 head

【Average Milk Yield】15 liters per day

【Average Meat Yield】50%

There was a lot of data.

Zhao Chi focused only on a few key items.

His knowledge of this kind of livestock was very limited, and what little he had was one-sided.

It was all subjective impressions; this was the first time he was seeing concrete data.

It seemed many things were different from the original world.

But that didn't matter.

But looking at it this way, for an ox to go from pregnancy and birth all the way to adulthood took 2 years.

And each time, most births produced only 1 calf — the yield wasn't high.

If he wanted to use animal husbandry to raise oxen generation by generation and then eat the meat, it really would take a very long time.

The adult ox's weight was 1000 kilograms; cows were certainly lighter, bulls heavier.

The average meat yield was 50%.

In other words, deducting the bones, hide, offal, and so on, there would still be 500 kilograms of beef left.

2 years of raising to get 500 kilograms of meat — didn't seem like a lot.

But the hide could also be made into leather, which was a decent source of material.

Cows could also produce milk, another excellent food source.

Beyond that, oxen could plow fields, which would further boost those farmers' work efficiency.

Oxen could also pull carts.

Right now the female workers were the ones pulling the wooden carts; with oxen pulling them, their efficiency could also improve.

They could even be used as mounts to ride.

Not bad at all.
