Fang Gu, holding a coffee cup, quickly walked out of the small wooden house.
In the rain, a helicopter slowly descended over the grass in front of the wooden house. Miss Rika, dressed in a green kimono, was gripping the stick on the side of the helicopter, her face puffed up with anger.
The next moment, Miss Lijia jumped straight out of the helicopter, followed closely by her damsel in distress.
"Oops."
Fang Gu, disregarding the coffee cup in his hand, hurriedly tried to catch Miss Lijia, who was jumping straight down.
The next moment, Lijia opened the umbrella beside her, and petals fell along with the raindrops.
The Pokémon world simply doesn't involve science fiction.
For a moment, Fang Gu's hand froze on the spot, but fortunately, Bulbasaur had already caught the coffee cup.
Lijia lightly touched the ground with her toes, stretched out her hand, and reached towards Fang Gu.
"Hello, I'm Lijia, and I'm here to buy honey."
Fang Gu quickly wiped his hands on his body, then gently grasped Li Jia's hand with a smile on his face.
"Hello, I am Fang Gu, the owner of this ranch. We have chatted online."
A hint of surprise flashed in Lijia's eyes. She had thought Fang Gu should be an old rancher of her grandfather's generation, but he looked about the same age as her.
Fang Gu also took this opportunity to look at Li Jia. She was wearing a green kimono that exuded the vibrancy of spring. Her complexion was fair and her cheeks still looked a little chubby.
Her short black hair, which just reached her neck, was held back by a red headband, adding a touch of playfulness.
However, Li Jia in front of me seemed a little tired.
"What an annoying rainy day."
Li Jia casually mentioned it, then looked at Fang Gu: "Mr. Fang Gu, you probably don't mind if the sun shines here, do you?"
Fang Gu shook his head.
It had rained all morning, and the crops in the fields should have been watered enough, so the rain didn't mean much to Fang Gu.
However, he had never heard of Rika being a weather maiden.
Lijia gently patted the petals of the night-blooming cereus next to her.
"Let the sky clear up, Queen of the Flowers!"
"Flower~"
The Queen of the Night flower placed her small hands in front of her chest, and a stream of energy gathered between her hands before shooting straight into the sky.
"call out!"
In an instant, the rain lessened, and Lijia smiled serenely as she closed her umbrella.
The dark clouds seemed to disappear from the sky, and the bright, gentle sunlight fell from the sky, even the plants that had been bent over by the rain straightened their backs.
The sun is with them!
Fang Gu looked at Li Jia's bougainvillea, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
This should be the "Sunny Day" skill.
It is a skill that can temporarily change weather conditions.
After using Sunny Day, the efficiency of growth skills will double, Solar Beam/Solar Blade will no longer require a pre-cast animation to accumulate energy, and Fire-type skills will also receive a power boost.
"Dana."
Bulbasaur looked at Vileplume with envy, amazed that it could use such a high-level skill so easily!
Lijia also noticed the timid Bulbasaur next to Fang Gu.
"Is this the Bulbasaur that produces nectar? It looks like you've raised it very well."
"It's clear that it's about to evolve."
Lijia smiled slightly, bent her knees slightly, squatted down, and gently stroked Bulbasaur's head.
Bulbasaur did not resist; it could sense that Liga had a friendly aura, much like that of Grandpa Fu.
This is probably the unique temperament of a trainer who specializes in Grass-type Pokémon.
"Alright, that's enough with the pleasantries."
"Where can I find the better quality nectar? I'm getting anxious."
A hint of anxiety flashed across Lijia's face.
Just as she arrived in the Carlos region, a gym apprentice messaged her to say that the gym's inspectors had arrived in Celadon City, but it was unclear when the gym would be inspected.
Now that the dojo is leaderless, I'm worried about those kids there. I need to go back as soon as I finish making the perfume.
Poor Ba Wanghua, she thought this was a relaxing trip.
However, as a teacher at Yuhong University, the head of Yuhong Dojo, and the manager of Yuhong Perfume Shop, since I have accepted these roles, I should do what I am supposed to do.
Upon hearing this, Fang Gu took out the "Affection Honey" that he had prepared earlier from the refrigerator.
Lijia simply opened the lid and took a sniff, and a look of joy appeared on her face.
The quality of this nectar is far superior to the last batch.
"I'll accept this nectar. I'm sure the perfume made with it will win the perfume competition."
Lijia put the honey into her handbag before Fang Gu could stop her.
"Oh, Miss Lijia, we haven't settled on the price yet."
"The perfume-making process is urgent; we'll discuss it again after I get out."
"Also, could I borrow a piece of your ranch?"
The next moment, Fang Gu heard the buzzing sound of helicopter wings turning in his head. Four helicopters carried a brand-new-looking house and landed next to Fang Gu's cabin.
Then four burly men jumped out of the helicopter and threw out Poké Balls.
One by one, Pokémons that were particularly skilled in earth and wood appeared in front of Fang Gu, busy reinforcing Li Jia's hut.
Fang Gu was taken aback. Did he have a new neighbor?
"Time is of the essence. I will stay inside until the perfume making is finished and I won't come out to bother you."
"Once the perfume is finished, this house will be yours."
"Also, you can consider these items as a deposit, or as a gift between neighbors!"
Lijia took a small bag out of her bosom and handed it to Fang Gu.
Inside were their perfume shop's prized "Stinky Flower Love," along with one or two strings of emerald green jewelry and gemstones so green they seemed to glow.
【Gloom's Love: Quality A. A perfume made with diluted Gloom saliva as a base. Spraying it on yourself can increase the affection of the opposite sex. Spraying it on two Pokémon of the same species can promote mating and egg-laying between the two Pokémon. It is very valuable.】
[Grass Gem: Quality B, one of the highest quality attribute gems. When a Pokémon holds it, it can continuously enhance the power of Grass-type moves, or unleash a powerful burst of energy. It is very valuable.]
Such a generous gift upon first meeting!
Lijia truly lives up to her reputation as the rich young lady of Yuhong City!
I, Fang Gu, accept this neighbor!
Fang Gu smiled and waved to Li Jia, watching her enter the house next door.
But the Queen of the Night did not enter the room; instead, it wandered around the house like a guard.
Fang Gu put away the Grass Gem. Since Bulbasaur already had the Miracle Seed, it was time for his mount, Eyjafjalla, to have the Grass Gem.
Fang Gu was a master of impartiality.
However, looking at the vigilant woman guarding the gate, Fang Gu had other thoughts.
I wonder if this Queen of the Night has ever tasted the special dessert from the Carlos region—Bouveret!
Chapter 74 Rare Treasure: Frolei Cooking Skill Level 7!
Inside a cabin at Stardew Valley Ranch.
Fang Gu stared at Bulbasaur, who had returned from gathering information outside the small wooden house, and asked in a low voice, "Bulbasaur, did you find out?"
"Dah!"
Bulbasaur puffed out its chest and stretched out vines to attach to the side of its head.
At first glance, it looks like Bulbasaur is saluting!
Report to Fang Gu!
We've already found out!
Bulbasaur hovered beside Fang Gu, and under the influence of the Aura, Fang Gu's understanding of Bulbasaur's words became clearer.
"Da na da na!"
Just like this sentence, Fang Gu deduced that Bulbasaur was saying, "Vileplume senior, you like sweet tastes just like me!"
Just then, Fang Xiaolu came out of the room. She had been wearing headphones and editing a video, and hadn't heard the sound of the propeller turning outside.
She asked in confusion, "Brother, why is it sunny outside?"
"Also, what about the beautiful lady who came to visit?"
Seeing that Fang Gu and Bulbasaur were ignoring her and even smiling at each other, Fang Xiaolu pouted and asked, "Brother, what are you and Bulbasaur doing?!"
Fang Gu, unable to bear Fang Xiaolu's nagging any longer, took out the jewelry that Li Jia had given him from his pocket.
"Wow."
Fang Xiaolu's eyes were instantly drawn to it. Sure enough, no matter how old a girl is, she likes pretty things.
"This is what the pretty lady gave you, but she's busy right now, so she might have to disappoint you."
Fang Xiaolu has always hoped to make more good friends.
"I'm a bit busy right now," Fang Gu said apologetically, ruffling Fang Xiaolu's hair.
"It's okay, I still have Meow Meow to keep me company!"
Fang Xiaolu happily took the jewelry back to her room, probably to play Pokémon Nikki on Meow Meow again.
