After thinking for a moment, Xinhai said to Joy Ya, " Nurse Joy, regarding the Pokémon 'm choosing, I hope it's an Eevee with the Anticipation Ability."
Upon hearing this, Joy Luo looked up, a hint of anxiety flashing in her eyes. She was about to remind Xinhai to choose a rarer Pokémon, but after seeing his determined expression, she swallowed her words.
Joy Ya raised an eyebrow, giving Xinhai a meaningful look. "Okay, Eevee should arrive in about two days. Xiao Luo will call you to pick it up then. Do you have any other requests? You can tell us now."
Xinhai looked at Joy Ya, organized his thoughts, and solemnly continued, " Nurse Joy, besides Eevee, I would like to exchange for a Fire Stone and a Dawn Stone, preferably high-quality Evolution Stone."
"Sure! Is there anything else?" Joy Ya nodded readily and asked Xinhai.
"Finally, I hope that three million League Coin will be deposited into my bank account."
After hearing Xinhai's final request, Joy Ya smiled slightly, "Okay, Xinhai. I'll arrange for someone to prepare the Fire Stone and the Dawn Stone, which will be given to you along with Eevee. As for the three million League Coin, they will be transferred to your account as soon as possible."
After confirming the details with Joy Ya, Xinhai said, " Nurse Joy. Let's sign the contract now."
Upon hearing Xinhai's words, Joy Ya smiled slightly, then looked at Joy Luo, who was swooning over her crush, and helplessly reminded her, " Xiao Luo, hurry up and bring the contract."
"Huh? Oh!" Joy Luo seemed to wake from a dream, her cheeks flushed, and she hurriedly took the contract out of the file bag and handed it to Xinhai.
Xinhai took the contract and carefully reviewed it, but when he saw the signature at the end, he frowned and his eyes were full of doubt.
The contract clearly bore the name of Joy Luo, not Joy Ya or any other elder in the Joy family as he had expected.
Joy Ya asked with a smile, " Xinhai, is there a problem?"
Xinhai glanced at Joy Ya and the shy Joy Luo beside her, and instantly understood. However, thinking that this would not do him any harm, he shook his head and said, "No, it makes perfect sense." After saying that, he neatly signed his name on the contract.
Joy Ya took the contract signed by Xinhai, checked it carefully, and after confirming that there were no errors, she smiled and put it away.
She looked at Xinhai and said calmly, " Xinhai, from now on, you can communicate directly with Xiao Luo about any resource-related issues. She will be fully responsible for your resource allocation and support."
Xinhai was not surprised by this and smiled at Joy Luo, "Okay, Nurse Joy. Please take care of me, Miss Joy Luo."
Upon hearing this, Joy Luo's cheeks flushed slightly. She nodded gently and whispered, "I... I will do my best, Xinhai."
Joy Ya smiled as she watched this scene and encouraged him, " Xinhai, if you need anything, you can just ask Xiao Luo. You're young, so it'll be easier for you to communicate."
"Then I'll be going now, so as not to disturb your conversation," Joy Ya said, standing up and straightening her skirt. " Xinhai, if Eevee and the Evolution Stone arrive, I'll have Xiao Luo notify you to pick them up. The money will also be transferred to your card today, so please check your account."
"Okay, Nurse Joy, thank you for your help." Xinhai also stood up and replied politely.
After Joy Ya walked away, a sudden silence fell between the two of them.
" Xinhai, why didn't you choose a better Pokémon instead chose Eevee?" Joy Luo looked at Xinhai shyly and asked, "Of course, it's okay if you can't say..."
Upon hearing Joy Luo's question, Xinhai smiled slightly but did not answer directly. Instead, he asked in return, " Xiao Luo, have you read those papers by Professor Birch's on Ability training?"
"Of course I saw it. Wait, did your Ralts inherit the Skill Swap?" Joy Luo was stunned for a moment, then realized what she meant.
"That's right, Ralts inherited the Skill Swap. Once Eevee arrives, they can begin training on that Ability." Xinhai smiled, a hint of anticipation for Eevee's arrival flashing in his eyes.
After listening, Joy Luo listened for a moment and said, "For Ralts and Torchic, the Anticipation Ability is indeed good. It puts little strain on their bodies while still being very useful."
After a lively discussion, Xinhai changed the subject and looked at Joy Luo, saying, " Xiao Luo, I'd like to discuss with you how to allocate resources each week."
Joy Luo nodded, took a notebook out of her pocket, and a serious look flashed in her eyes. "Okay, Xinhai, you go ahead, I'm listening."
Xinhai organized his thoughts and began, "First of all, training them in Ability will likely consume a lot of energy and cause damage to their bodies. So I plan to prepare one pound of Beedrill Honey for them every week, which will cost 100,000 League Coin per week."
Joy Luo continued working, smiling, "That's no problem. There's plenty of Beedrill Honey on the market, and major cities also have artificial breeding facilities."
Thinking about the expenses he had calculated in his mind, Xinhai swallowed hard and gritted his teeth as he continued, "Secondly, once Eevee arrives, their weekly food will mainly consist of Exclusive Advanced Pokémon Food and Advanced Energy Cube, which will cost about 1.2 million per week."
Joy Luo carefully took notes and said, "Okay, I've taken notes on this part too."
Xinhai recalled a piece of information from the document and confirmed with Joy Luo, " Xiao Luo, I remember there was a nutritious food for humans in the document, right?"
Joy Luo thought for a moment, then looked up at Xinhai and nodded, "Yes, it's a nutritionally balanced meal for Fighting type, made with special ingredients. It can quickly replenish the energy consumed by the body, making it very suitable for people who need high-intensity training. What's wrong? Xinhai, do you need it?"
Upon hearing this, Xinhai nodded and said, "Yes, 21 servings per week, I remember it's 1000 per serving, right?"
Joy Luo glanced at Xinhai's 1.8-meter height and replied, "Yes, 21 portions will cost 21,000 League Coin."
Then Xinhai mentioned Berry, Body Strengthening Potion, and some other special materials.
After Xinhai finished speaking, Joy Luo closed her notebook and said to Xinhai with concern, " Xinhai, according to your plan, the weekly reduction in funds is about 1.5 million League Coin, which can last for six to seven weeks. Although this amount is not small, you have considered everything very comprehensively, so don't be too worried about the money."
Upon hearing Joy Luo's words, Xinhai gave a bitter smile, a complex sense of heartache welling up inside him.
He nodded, a hint of helplessness in his voice. "One and a half million, that number does put a lot of pressure on me. But I'll do my best!"
Seeing Xinhai's expression, Joy Luo gently comforted him, " Xinhai, don't be too distressed. Once your Pokémon grows up, it will bring you even greater rewards."
Xinhai looked at Joy Luo and smiled, "Thank you for your comfort, Xiao Luo. I will train hard and become the best trainer."
Joy Luo smiled slightly and encouraged, "I believe in you, Xinhai."
After saying goodbye to Joy Luo, Xinhai returned to his room with mixed feelings, only to find that Torchic and Ralts had already woken up and were sitting on the bed waiting for him to return.
"Chamo~" "Laru~"
The two Pokémon ran over as soon as they saw Xinhai, staring at Xinhai with their big, round eyes, and asked Xinhai somewhat angrily where he had gone.
Xinhai picked up the two little ones and brought them to the bedside, smiling, "A friend was looking for me, it's that Xiao Luo sister. I chatted with her downstairs for a while."
Ralts said earnestly, "Ralts!" (Then Xinhai should also leave us a message, otherwise we'll worry!)
Xinhai held Ralts's little hand and said with a smile, "But what will we do if neither of you can read!"
Ralts paused, pondering the question. He put his other little hand to his mouth, tilted his head, and thought for a moment, "Ralts." (Then, Xinhai, please teach us to read, so we can understand.)
