158: Chapter 158: Is This Really a Pig? 158: Chapter 158: Is This Really a Pig? Having trained all day, Zhao Guang felt extremely exhausted. As for magic, Zhao Guang didn’t want to research a second spell for now; he preferred to learn more about mathematical problems first. There was still much to be learned, after all, it was all part of a whole set. Zhao Guang had a feeling that as long as he could learn well, his future advancements in spell improvement would be even greater. It was the essence of spells, and these books didn’t seem so easily obtained. After all, even Mages mostly just followed the footsteps of their predecessors. Their so-called research wasn’t truly research but merely a form of amendment and experimentation. Zhao Guang learned from Ocoro that these Mages’ experiments often used the method of exhaustion. If they managed to achieve any results, it truly would be like a blind cat running into a dead rat. Early the next morning, Zhao Guang was woken up by a noise. “Xiao Guang, come down quickly, I’m here,” it was Liu Jiayin’s voice. “Jiajia, you didn’t come in person, did you?” Zhao Guang was very surprised, then he hurriedly got up, wiped his face, and went downstairs. Downstairs, he saw Liu Jiayin directing a fleet of vehicles. It was the type of large truck used specifically for transporting livestock, all operated by a professional team. Indeed, entrusting this task to Jiajia was the best choice; he had already handled everything very appropriately. “Is this thing a pig?” Liu Jiayin turned back to look at the pigs and then stared at Zhao Guang with a puzzled face. Honestly, he had never seen pigs like this before in his life. Although everyone knows pigs are fat, who has ever seen one shaped like a cantaloupe? “Yes, these are our new breed, the five pigs.” Now Liu Jiayin believed it, it was indeed a new breed, and at least in this aspect, no one had deceived Zhao Guang. With all the knowledge about pig farming he had crammed recently, he had never seen or even heard of this kind. “Okay, so how exactly do we handle this? It looks a bit like a wild pig but has no tusks, and its fur is really strange.” The five dark brown hairs at the back were probably the origin of its name. Really, why call them five pigs? Wouldn’t it be better to call them bread pigs, they do look more like bread. “Yes, that’s right, they were cultivated from wild pigs.” Breeding from wild animals was common, so it was not wrong to say so; for more specific details, he didn’t know, he’d have to ask the experts. Seeing Zhao Guang like this, Liu Jiayin had no other options but to try and raise them for now. “Here, these are some notes I’ve made. These five pigs eat anything, so try using different feeds for them. If you add some grass, the meat might have a grassy flavor.” “Also, these are the reproductive and size issues of the pigs during the experiments; you’ll need to collect data on those. Remember, it must be kept confidential, don’t let unrelated people know.” Taking the booklet, Liu Jiayin felt something was off as he read. “Are these really pigs? Eating everything and growing so fast is just one thing, but growing to over four meters in two years, are you kidding me?” In nature, animals reaching over four meters, including their tails, are not many, and most of them are pythons or crocodiles; it’s rare for mammals to grow that large. Four meters long, eh? Pig’s tails aren’t long, so calculating this, it’s almost as big as an elephant. And with their round plump shape, if they actually succeed in breeding these in the future, they’re definitely going to be famous. It seemed Zhao Guang was more involved in this business than Liu Jiayin had imagined, and thinking this, Liu Jiayin felt extremely motivated. “Don’t worry, I’ll get professionals to conduct experiments.” “All these people have signed contracts with us; they definitely won’t leak any information.” “I’m not worried about that, I just think that at least we need to maintain a lead for a few years, we can’t allow others to surpass us easily, right?” Keeping this breed of piglets safe was practically impossible. Not to mention he didn’t have that capability, even if he did, with animals, it probably wasn’t easy to preserve them. It was just unknown whether these five pigs would devolve on Earth; if that was the case, it might be easier to control them. “Right, can I conduct some crossbreeding experiments?” “Crossbreeding, using the five pigs and regular domestic pigs? Alright, try it, but I can’t guarantee success.” After all, they were creatures from two different worlds, who knew if reproductive isolation existed or not. Or rather, having reproductive isolation would be normal, not having it would be strange. After giving these instructions, everyone started herding the five pigs towards the truck. Zhao Guang looked at the ground and suddenly widened his eyes: “Shit, that was close, it seems first keeping them here was the right choice.” Zhao Guang saw some small pits on the ground. Others might not care, but Zhao Guang knew how they came to be. The five pigs were magic creatures after all, capable of magic even if only one spell. It seemed that in the past few days, the five pigs had already released all their magic, thus leaving pits in the ground. Without magic power, unable to replenish in this world, they could be treated as normal wild beasts from now on. Luckily, otherwise if these creatures had harmed people it might have been a minor issue, but exposing their special nature would have been a big problem. “What are you looking at, is there something on the ground?” Liu Jiayin asked curiously, looking at Zhao Guang. “Ah, nothing, nothing, just that these are a bit difficult to clean up.” “Indeed, this place isn’t a pig sty, but don’t worry, I anticipated this and brought people along for you, we’ll even restore the lawn afterwards.” Liu Jiayin having brought a professional team wasn’t expected; he called over some people, who immediately started working. With professional tools, the ground was quickly scraped off a layer. Although there was still a residual smell, it would dissipate in a few days. Then, some workers with sod started repairing the surroundings. “How did you know it would turn out like this here and brought professional staff?” Zhao Guang was curious. “I had a chat with Sister Yanzi before coming; otherwise, how would I have known the situation here? Really, you keeping pigs in the residential area.” Sister Yanzi was Zhao Guang’s sister, Zhao Yan. Because Zhao Guang was now starting a company with them, they both addressed her that way. After all, there were many matters that needed to be communicated with Zhao Yan in the future. As for Zhao Guang, who knows what he was up to all day. But in their view, as long as Zhao Guang could maintain his channels well, that was all that mattered; other things were minor by comparison. As long as the channels were well maintained, there would be no trouble.
