I almost gave in.
Money can really change a person beyond recognition.
He shook his head, woke up Kodara and Chandler, and prepared to start moving.
During this period, Cheng Hong and a group of old brothers from Qingyi Street came to help him.
"Once our training here is over, I plan to hang out with you. What do you think?"
Cheng Hong was carrying a box and looking at Baimu eagerly.
When the others heard this, they unconsciously turned their eyes over or pricked up their ears to listen.
"What? Who else can I choose besides you?" The latter asked with a smile, "Don't look at me so pitifully, it's disgusting. Okay, we grew up together, and we can't just turn our backs on our relatives once we get ashore, right?"
His predecessor, who had no parents, grew up relying on the help of neighbors until he was ten years old. This was one of the few lights in his life. Moreover, everyone had started to unite and resist "power" from the very beginning, and they had a certain tacit understanding.
Kashiwagi doesn't think that there is anyone more reliable than them in terms of loyalty and trust.
Of course, it is not ruled out that people with money will become bad, but other strangers will not become bad? There is no difference. Everyone present has been alienated by Shibata using money and power, so they have some experience in resisting corruption.
After hearing his words, Cheng Hong and others breathed a sigh of relief and smiled brightly.
Kashiwagi was running too fast, and in the blink of an eye he became someone they needed to look up to, so they couldn't help feeling uneasy when talking to him.
But not bad.
He is still the same, speaking little but full of affection.
A group of people began to chat.
"It would be great if Kashiwagi's territory was allocated to Qingyi Street. Then my mother and the others wouldn't have to work so hard in the future."
"Idiot! Since your family is so poor, of course you should get a share of the money from somewhere with more money! Collecting money from those dance halls and pachinko parlors will make you rich in one day! When you take the money back, your mother won't have to work hard either!"
"Hahahaha!"
The young people, who were no more than twenty years old, laughed loudly, and their words were full of longing for the future.
-
new house.
A square two-story building with a light yellow facade.
It is full of the style of self-built houses in the villages or towns of the previous life, but it has a not-so-small backyard, which contains not only a simple fighting field.
There's even a tree.
This was something of a surprise for Kashiwagi and Kodara.
The location is not far from the egg-shaped base camp of the Sand Group, but there are not many people around, and the houses are separated by a certain distance to ensure the privacy of the residents.
No wonder people say that being promoted to team leader is like leaping over the dragon gate.
The living standards have improved too much.
Baimu was secretly complaining in his heart, and further discovered that although the exterior of the two-story building looked simple and rustic, the decoration inside was quite good.
It is probably the result of the hard work of the previous owner.
He thought about it and had a small celebration with a group of colleagues in the new house.
When Chenghong and the others went to the training class, the saplings and potted plants that Kodara had been looking forward to arrived.
The delivery man brought a mole with him. After confirming the planting location with Baimu, he ordered the mole to dig holes in the ground and transplant the saplings.
Kodara excitedly wanted to go over to help, but was stopped by the trainer who hit her on the head.
"This is the training manual. Please come again!"
The delivery man left.
"The cultivation manual... should be able to keep it alive, right? This one is alive." Baimu flipped through it - he couldn't understand it, but he glanced at the big tree that already existed.
It still feels possible.
but.
Will these two trees compete for nutrients?
He looked at the tree which was ten meters away with some worry. It was the first time for him to raise this thing and he couldn't handle it.
"Fertilizer, fertile soil... Hey, calm down, please, don't grunt like a pig!"
Kashiwagi pushed Kodara's big head away and said with a pout, "If you can understand it, then read it. I can't understand it! Pokémon characters are too difficult."
Kodara didn't care about the trainer's thoughts and started running around the backyard, releasing the energy that she had nowhere to release after getting excited.
He roared while running.
"Guduo! Guduo!"
Even Jigglypuff was confused by it.
Kashiwagi didn't understand what was going on until a voice was heard.
"Oh? It looks like your Kodora has taken your backyard as his own territory."
It was Floppo again.
"Uh... why do you say that?"
Kashiwagi felt that this person was a little strange. Was he idle all day? Was he always coming to him, or did he have some other purpose...
"Kodora is a Pokémon that is used to planning its territory and has a strong sense of territory. Generally, in the wild, it will choose a high mountain with buried iron ore and delicious spring water, but Pyrite Town does not have these conditions, so it lowered its requirements."
Frobo saw the vigilance in Kashiwagi's eyes and sighed, "Brother, I came here because of what happened this morning. I have no choice. I am born to work hard and run errands for others every day."
"...You are the team leader after all."
"What's wrong with the captain? He's nothing in the eyes of the boss. What can I do if he wants me to go in person?" Frobo looked a little pleading, "Give me a chance to discuss it."
Kashiwagi: "..."
He always felt that there was something wrong with this person, but he didn't know what exactly was wrong. However, for the sake of testing the situation, he decided to agree.
Otherwise, if the other party gets unhappy, he or she may turn covertly and do something behind your back, which will cause trouble.
Chapter 51 New Pokémon
The two people looked at each other across the table.
"I'm a straightforward person, I hope you don't mind."
Frobo spoke first, saying seriously: "I don't think your subordinates can successfully tame those three Pokémon, at least not in the next few years."
Kashiwagi nodded, "Indeed, what you said makes sense."
Just as the other party said, judging from the current situation of Otsuka, Narihiro and others, it is not optimistic that they can tame the giant wolfhound by relying on their own strength.
Seeing that he agreed with his mouth but his expression showed no reaction, Frobo continued, "It will take a few years. Unless you cultivate them yourself, you will have to entrust them to others, which is a considerable expense."
"Correct."
Kashiwagi nodded again.
"…So if you know all this, but you don't want to sell these Pokémon, why? There has to be a reason, right?"
Frobo sighed, puzzled by his stubborn attitude.
"Why...it's actually very simple. I want to find a good home for them."
The young man in front of him said calmly and calmly.
"Uh!"
Frobo's eyes widened, and he made a goose-like sound as if his neck was being tightened. "You said..."
"You heard that right."
Kashiwagi replied: "I want to find a good home for these three enemy Pokémon so that they don't have to be sold here and there and wander around."
He knew that most people in Huangtie Town could not understand such words, and even many people in other areas could not understand them.
But that didn't stop him from having this idea.
Just treat his saintly heart as if it were spreading. He had to do something when he encountered something that made him uncomfortable. These three Pokémon were both pressure and motivation, urging him to keep moving forward.
If I ever fall into despair, the dream of replicating Damu’s backyard will forever remain a dream.
"..."
Frobo looked at the calm and composed Kashiwagi, his mind was a little confused, and he couldn't help but ask: "Are you Pokémon ***?"
"What?"
The latter was stunned for a moment, and felt that the other party said a word he didn't understand, which seemed to be some kind of profession.
This is the disadvantage of illiteracy. Sometimes when the other person says something unfamiliar or professional, you are unable to convert it into Chinese for easy understanding.
"It seems you are not." Frobo breathed a sigh of relief, "This is what I'm talking about. It's a group of guys who are dedicated to protecting the balance between Pokémon and the natural environment. They shouldn't exist in the Ouray region."
Ah~ ranger.
Kashiwagi wrote down the word, equating it with ranger, and said, "You know quite a lot."
“Just surf the internet more.”
Frobo responded slowly, with a look of relief on his face, and said, "If that's the case, it's easy to deal with - in principle, I shouldn't expose my employer, but he really wants it, and you're stubborn, so there's nothing I can do.
"Listen carefully, the person who wants to buy the Great Wolfhounds is actually one of the bosses behind us and the Vicious Dog Team. He is a Pokémon collector who used to be very optimistic about Jian. After learning of Jian's death, he wanted to take his Pokémon away as a memorial."
"and many more……"
Kashiwagi was confused. "We and the boss behind the Vicious Dog Team?"
"Yes. You should have heard that the Quicksand Team and the Vicious Dog Team were actually the same security company guarding the mines. They were subsidiaries of two different groups. But something happened later and the two groups merged, so we actually have the same boss behind us."
Frobo replied slowly, "You may be curious why we, as a boss, are so at odds with the Vicious Dog Team. It's a long story. You just need to know that the inside of a large group is not monolithic. And the group has only one requirement for us - to deliver goods on time and in fixed quantities."
"mine?"
"Yes, if you give them enough money, they won't ask you anything."
"..."
