The spring rain lasted until the evening.
Naoki glanced at the old-fashioned pendulum clock on the wall. The time was still more than twenty minutes before five o'clock.
After thinking for a moment, he was going to take Gulledon outside to see if he could catch some more fish and sell them to Zach later to support his family.
There is a lot of moisture left in the air after the rain, making it feel extremely humid.
Transparent water drops slowly slid down the leaf veins on the grass, dripping into the moist and soft soil.
Naoki stood under the eaves and put on his rain boots, leaving the Green Caterpillar and Motorized Lizard at home while he took Gullton to the river.
The reason for this is because Pokémon cannot wear shoes and will be stained with dirty mud when they go out. If you take them out, you will have to give them a bath when you come back later.
Naoki felt it was troublesome, so he only brought one Pokémon, Gullton.
The Motorized Lizard, who had not been taken out, stood under the eaves, looking eagerly.
Therefore, Luton looked back and was extremely happy with Naoki's decision to only take him out.
Even though that biker lizard is itself.
Zhi Shu didn't know what Gu Ledun was thinking. The two came to the river. Zhi Shu looked at Gu Ledun with a smile and said, "Gu Ledun, I'll leave it to you!"
On cloudy and rainy days, the air pressure is low, and the oxygen content in the river water will also decrease. Fish will swim to shallow water areas to breathe. This time is often the best time to fish.
Hearing Zhi Shu's words, Gu Le immediately understood. He patted his chest with his paws confidently, "Gah!"
Just leave it to it!
As he said that, Guluton's expression suddenly became serious. While the aura on his body surged, his strong scarlet body jumped up. The dragon's whiskers on its head turned into wing-like things, and it violently smashed down while changing its form. .
Just hearing a loud "boom", a big hole was blown out of the water.
The river water was shaken upward, turning into water droplets and falling down.
Naoki: "..."
That move just now... it should be Gullerton's exclusive move of full slam, right?
Naoki observed Gulton's movements, and when he saw it returning to its fighting form and returning to the shore, he immediately confirmed his suspicion.
Sure enough, it was a full blast.
In the game, Gulton's exclusive super move has 100 power and 100 hits. When it hits a weak point, its power can be further enhanced.
Fishing with full slam is a bit too extravagant.
Zhi Shu looked up at the river and saw fish of different sizes floating on it.
These fish have suffered a lot...
However, Gu Lerton seemed to have deliberately restrained his strength. Although it looked exaggerated, it did not really hurt these fish, but only stunned them with the aftermath.
"Gah ah ah ah!"
After completing the work of Naoki's distribution, Luton looked very happy.
It looked at the floating fish shadows in the upper reaches of the river and said eagerly: "Qaw?"
Although he didn't understand it, Naoki miraculously understood its meaning. He quickly stopped him and said, "That's enough!"
As a qualified rancher, you should consider the long term and not fish all out, so as to achieve sustainable development.
You have to leave time for the fish to thrive, right?
After releasing ordinary fish Pokémon such as Magikarp and those ordinary river fish, it took more than ten minutes of work to catch them all.
The tin bucket was filled to the brim. Looking at this scene, Naoki was very happy.
What a great harvest!
Carrying the fish bucket back to the wooden house, the Motorized Lizard was still standing under the eaves and looking out.
When it saw Naoki coming back, its eyes suddenly lit up and it came forward.
That look reminded Naoki of a big dog waiting for its owner to come home.
"Okay, okay, I'll cook grilled fish for you tonight!" Naoki rubbed the Motorized Lizard's head, smiled and picked out a few fresh and plump rainbow trout from the bucket.
As soon as he finished his work, he heard the sound of a truck moving.
Looking up, Zach, wearing rain boots, opened the car door and jumped out.
"Today's weather is really bad! It's been raining all day. I just went to several pastures and there was nothing to sell. I only collected a few baskets of eggs and a few cans of milk." Zach couldn't help complaining.
In this weather, most ranchers will not go out at all. They will choose to stay at home and watch TV or chat with their wives and children.
"Do you have anything to sell?" Zach asked.
Naoki carried out the bucket of fish he had just caught: "It's easier to catch fish when it rains."
Zach's eyes widened: "So many?"
Naoki and Gu Ledun next to him looked at each other and smiled.
"This is really surprising!" Zach stepped forward to classify and weigh the fish, and then said: "The total is 5210 alliance coins, you still worked really hard! Here!"
With that said, Zach handed over the money.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Naoki took the money.
At this time, it started to drizzle again.
Zach looked up, picked up the iron bucket and said, "I won't say much more, I'm leaving! It's raining hard again!"
"OK."
Trucks hurriedly came and left, pulling fresh aquatic products towards the direction of Zhiqin Town.
Naoki took a deep breath, and then began to help Gu Ledun wash the mud off his body.
After cleaning, Guluton instinctively shook off the water drops on his body, then transformed into a galloping form, happily rushed to Naoki's side, and licked his face.
Naoki's face was covered with saliva and he was almost knocked down. He couldn't help but said at a loss: "What happened to me suddenly..."
"Gah~"
He put the blanket on Gulton, helped him dry the water on his body, then turned back to the house and put today's income in the drawer.
Spring 198, January 7th.
Income: Fish+5210
Spend: 0
Remaining funds: 37700
"I'm still about ten thousand short of saving up enough money to repair the Pokémon hut. After the repair, I can start raising braided sheep and big milk cans in the pasture... But I don't know the prices of braided sheep and big milk cans. There’s a good chance the money won’t be enough.”
“Should we consider building a chicken shed first?”
Naoki fell into thought.
Unlike a Pokémon house, building a chicken house only costs 20,000 alliance coins, and compared to large milk tanks and braided sheep, the price of ordinary hens is much cheaper.
Hens lay eggs very quickly. A healthy hen can lay one egg every day. The eggs can be sold, used to hatch chicks, or can be kept for making omelettes, steamed eggs, Food like omurice.
In this way, he will not have to buy eggs from outside and can be self-sufficient.
Although the eggs are much inferior to those of Geely eggs, for him now, raising Geely eggs is simply impossible.
In comparison, raising chickens is much more cost-effective.
Thinking of this, Naoki immediately made a decision.
When the weather was clear, he went to the carpentry shop and commissioned Kelly to build a chicken hut and officially started the breeding project.
