Chapter 640: Recruiting Ma Ruiyin’s Brothers
Yang Ming was suddenly confused. He had no recollection of knowing this silver-haired woman.
"Could it be Lusamine? No, Lusamine should have blonde hair... and Lusamine is already in her early forties, she can't be that young."
Just when Yang Ming was racking his brains to figure out what was happening, a small commotion not far away caught his attention.
Two children wanted to take the food from the food cart, but their faces turned red with anxiety because they were not tall enough. As a last resort, the little girl with purple hair had to step on the fat boy with orange hair to try to get on the food cart.
"Mamane, try harder!"
"I can't do it, Acerola."
Seeing this, Yang Ming stepped forward to help. He easily took two portions of food from the dining car and handed them to the two children. "Thank you, big brother!" the little girl Aserola said sweetly, and the little fat boy Mamane also thanked him.
"It's okay, it's just a small favor." Yang Ming smiled and talked to the two children, trying to get closer to them.
What a joke, these two kids are our treasures. Since Yang Ming met them by chance, why wouldn't he win them over?
The girl named Aserola is the captain of the evil-attribute Z-pure crystal on Ula Ula Island. Although she looks thin, she is the descendant of the ancient Alola dynasty and the only surviving princess.
The little fat boy named Mamane had met Yang Ming on Akala Island as early as possible. Yang Ming wanted to recruit him at that time, but unfortunately, the "Overlord Pokémon" got out of control, which led to the temporary shelving of the recruitment plan.
Now that the two have met again, Yang Ming can't let go of this opportunity and must let him join his lone commander group!
"Xiao Ma, where have you been? I had a hard time looking for you." At this moment, a tall and bookish young man strode towards the three people.
Mamane immediately went up to him and said defensively, "It's not like I wanted to get separated from you. It was Acerola who wanted to eat chicken legs, and I volunteered to get it for her."
"Haha, I see you want to eat it yourself?"
"Old Ma, don't wrongly accuse a good person!"
Listening to the bickering between the two, Yang Ming already knew the true identity of the young man called "Lao Ma".
Marain is Mamane's cousin and the former captain of Ula'ula Island. He is also in charge of the Pokémon storage system at the Huiklani Observatory.
Ma Ruiyin is a genius. He is not only an expert in computers, but also a gifted trainer. Compared with Pokémon battles, he is more interested in technology and has repeatedly refused to take over the throne of the king of Ula'ula Island.
Yang Ming was overjoyed. He was so lucky to meet the two brothers Ma Ruiyin and Ma Manei at the same time in one day. So he decisively approached them and tried to recruit Ma Ruiyin to his side.
"I wonder where Brother Yang is doing?"
"To be honest, I have received a commission from King Hala and am currently serving as the director of the Pokémon School in Haole City. On weekdays, I am responsible for purchasing teaching equipment for the school, and occasionally I will personally educate students."
Ma Rui was a little confused by the three people. Due to the recent riots on Ula Ula Island, the three people were quite isolated from the news. However, they had at least heard of Hala's reputation, so they were naturally very polite to Yang Ming.
"I heard that Brother Ma has taken up the post of Director of the Huikalani Observatory. I wonder how he is doing."
“Don’t mention it,” Ma Ruiyin sighed. “There was a riot on the island recently, and many base stations were destroyed by the bandits. We don’t have the funds to repair them, so until now, the news from Ula Ula Island has been lagging behind.”
Yang Ming was overjoyed when he heard this. He now had the activity funds allocated by Sakaki in his hand, so he could just borrow flowers to offer to Buddha. So he said righteously: "To be honest, I made a little money in the Johto area. If you don't mind, I can spend money to help you rebuild those base stations."
"Really?!" Ma Ruiyin was overjoyed. He didn't expect that he could meet such a great person just by attending a dinner party by chance. If he had known this, he would have actively participated in various parties and stopped being a stay-at-home.
The two quickly reached an agreement that Yang Ming would provide financial support to Ma Ruiyin to rebuild the base station on Ula Ula Island, while Ma Ruiyin would use his brain to help Yang Ming solve some difficult problems.
Yang Ming's eyes rolled and a plan appeared in his mind.
"By the way, I have a friend who spent his entire life building a machine, but unfortunately he passed away before the machine was completed, so I want to use his invention to make a little contribution to Alola."
Yang Ming used this half-truthful statement to fool Ma Ruiyin and the other two. At the same time, he pulled out a design drawing and carefully showed it to Ma Ruiyin.
This design drawing was exactly the design drawing of the Zygarde Polyhedron that he had obtained in the Kalos region before.
Ma Ruiyin stared at the design for a long time in silence, and finally spoke excitedly: "It's really a stroke of genius, the ingenuity of the concept is amazing, but the complexity of this machine is also very high. I want Mamane to be my deputy."
Yang Ming was naturally more than happy to have this. Ma Ruin is a computer expert, and Ma Manei is an invention expert. He only had to spend a portion of the funds to get these two scientific research talents. It was really a huge profit without any investment!
The other captain, Aserola, was not immediately won over. Although princesses had high status in ancient times, in modern society, Aserola's identity as a princess was of no use and did not have much appeal.
If Yang Ming was born in ancient times, he would probably try every means to marry this princess home as his wife, in order to increase the legitimacy of his future rule over Alola.
Unfortunately, now is a modern society, and "marrying a princess" is meaningless. It would be better to win over the hearts of the people and prepare for one's future great cause.
Besides, he really had no interest in little loli like Aserola.
However, Yang Ming was very satisfied with his gains tonight as he was able to subdue the brothers Ma Ruiyin and Ma Mane in one night.
While he was having a pleasant conversation with the three people, Yang Ming noticed that the silver-haired woman was still peeping at him, and he glared at her fiercely.
"How dare you interfere with my recruitment? Can't you see I'm busy? If you care about me so much, why don't you join my team?"
After being glared at by Yang Ming, the silver-haired woman suddenly panicked and had to move to another place to pretend that she was drinking.
Just as Yang Ming and Ma Rui were talking happily, the whole hall suddenly became quiet. As the spotlights gathered in the middle, a graceful and elegant blonde lady slowly walked over.
She is the chairman of the Ether Foundation - Lusamine.
