What did that even mean?
The D-rank Stamina Energy Cubes he had legitimately purchased in the Donghua League didn't even have this effect.
Not to mention that those Energy Cubes sold for three thousand yuan per serving in the League.
And yet,
The Energy Cubes sold by this little shop tasted better, while seemingly lacking the tolerance buildup caused by ordinary Energy Cubes!
That was the conclusion he had reached after having Beedrill and his second Pokémon, Munchlax, try them for over an hour.
Even after all the Energy Cubes had been eaten,
Munchlax's energy still recovered incredibly quickly, and they also gave Munchlax an immense sense of fullness.
Heaven had finally taken pity on him.
After learning of this second effect of the Energy Cubes,
Luan Ming was absolutely overjoyed.
He truly could no longer afford to raise this Munchlax.
Half a year. He had raised it for half a year.
His savings had been eaten away, and so had the car he wanted to buy.
Were these Energy Cubes any good?
How could he not know?
"Sorry, but today's Energy Cubes are already sold out. You'll have to wait until tomorrow."
Seeing customers still arriving now and then, Lin Feng could only flip the "limit three per customer per day" sign over.
On the other side, it clearly read: "Sold Out."
Simple and straightforward.
"Are you kidding me? They sold out in two hours?" Looking at the completely empty glass display case, Luan Ming cried out in disbelief.
"I'm really sorry. Since it's the first day, I wasn't prepared enough, so this is all I can do today. How about I give you some Spicy Pepper Fruit?"
Lin Feng recognized him as that first streamer. He took out a plastic bag, filled it with several Spicy Pepper Fruits, and handed it over.
Luan Ming: "..."
He did not even know how he had accepted the bag of Spicy Pepper Fruit. Right now, all that remained in his heart was a faint sense of regret.
I should've bought three servings earlier...
But when he remembered there would be more tomorrow morning, he felt a little better.
Tomorrow, he would be the first one there.
Afternoon...
Only when the sun overhead grew scorching did the number of people drawn in by the video gradually decrease.
Lin Feng let out a breath of relief. Thinking no one would come by again for a while, he shut the door and drew the curtains over the floor-to-ceiling windows.
From then on, even if more people came, he would not open the door.
"Vine..."
Beside him, Servine let out a weak cry.
Not everyone who came was there to buy Energy Cubes. A small number had been attracted by it instead, and the moment they entered, they wanted to pet Servine...
Though Lin Feng had refused those requests in the end.
"Hahaha... How about you hide in the Treehouse tomorrow?"
Lin Feng laughed twice, bent down, and rubbed its face. When it gave him a dangerous look, he promptly pulled his hand back.
Then he began checking today's gains.
The system notifications had not stopped all day. Pokémon kept feeling joyful after eating the Energy Cubes.
In the end, Lin Feng simply turned off the system notification sound.
Now that he looked,
He had accumulated over three hundred bags of Golden Fertilizer and more than sixty Rare Candies, and those numbers were still increasing.
More importantly, there were all sorts of special rewards.
Sand Attack (x5)
Special Scale Fruit (x3)
Dragonite's Eye Fruit (x2)
D-rank Fire Stone (x1)
At a glance, there were more than twenty additional special rewards.
Lin Feng nodded repeatedly at the sight.
Among those special rewards, one item caught his attention.
Aspear Berry Tree Seeds. They needed to be planted beside land rich in energy. They took three years to sprout, ten years to grow into trees, and thirty years to bear fruit.
That information made Lin Feng's eyelid twitch.
Aspear Berries were the main berries used to make Ability Development Energy Cubes.
The thirty years before fruiting did not scare Lin Feng off.
He remembered that the system had rewarded him with five bags of Special Grade Golden Fertilizer last time.
Aside from the system's special rewards, there was also today's sales revenue.
Lin Feng had Rotom list it out.
"Rotom~ This morning's revenue was... 185,000!"
Rotom was also in a very good mood when it said that.
"Whew, that much..."
Lin Feng sucked in a cold breath.
Although most of the ingredients used to make today's Energy Cubes had been bought from Wangwang Supermarket,
The total cost had only been a few thousand yuan, and he had even used a shopping card.
In other words, that 180,000 was pure profit...
Looking at his balance... Lin Feng fell into deep thought.
"Looks like... I'm not short on money anymore?"
In the Donghua League, where Starter Pokémon cost only a little over three hundred thousand yuan,
Over a hundred thousand yuan was roughly what an ordinary person could earn in a year.
"Forget it. I won't think about that anymore. I should plant the fruit trees first."
He shook his head.
Not having to worry about money was a good thing.
Still, he needed to keep raising Pokémon.
Take Servine, for example. It loved the thrilling tension of battling. If he got the chance in the future, he should take on some work as a Trainer for its sake.
And there was also the matter of his parents' disappearance...
Once he grew stronger, he would have to look into it...
By his estimation, his father's Scyther had not been weak at all. Back in Wutong City, it had been one of the top Gym-level Pokémon.
An existence like that should not have faced much danger in an ordinary Wild Area.
Yet they had still disappeared, without even leaving Lin Feng any message...
At the very least... he wanted to know whether they were dead or alive.
"Sigh..."
Lin Feng sighed and carried some freshly grown fruits and vegetables toward Grandpa Qin's home.
To plant trees, he naturally needed to borrow Grandpa Qin's Sandshrew.
Sometimes, he wondered whether he should buy a Sandshrew from another Pokémon breeding house specifically to plow the fields.
But after thinking it over, he decided against it.
Grandpa Qin's Sandshrew had already been given this job. If he bought another one, would that simple little fellow become sad? Lin Feng did not want that to happen.
Borrowing it went smoothly.
Sandshrew even excitedly provided Lin Feng with a Sand Attack.
Only, when Grandpa Qin received the fruits and vegetables, he found it strange that Lin Feng's Plantation had produced so quickly.
As for that,
Lin Feng could only make the excuse that he had already turned over a plot of land and planted seeds there earlier.
Then he gave most of the credit to Servine...
Grandpa Qin did not dwell on it too much. He merely felt that Pokémon truly were miraculous creatures...
Then he let out a sigh for the times. "It's a pity that Elfology wasn't as widespread in Grandpa's day as it is now..."
Silver Feather
The moment he stepped into the Plantation,
