The two of them continued walking forward and entered Berry Park.
The entire fruit forest is lush and green, with luxuriant branches and leaves.
Under the careful care of Heracross, the saplings are growing gratifyingly day by day.
Small light yellow flowers are dotted on the branches, swaying gently in the breeze, exuding a faint fragrance.
The fragrance even attracted swarms of Combee, which flew among the flowers to collect nectar.
Yicheng looked around curiously:
"No one is needed here? They are all Heracross, so awesome!"
More than a dozen Heracross are scattered throughout the fruit forest. Some loosen the soil, some use pliers to prune branches and leaves, and some carry fertilizers. They are comparable to a professional gardening team.
And if nothing else, these rows of Heracross look majestic just standing there.
Speaking of this, Aili couldn't help but complain:
"If you just look at the surface of things, these guys are really capable if they can do what they can, and they can really eat if they can."
It takes her an hour every day just to prepare food for Heracross.
If Heracross didn't want wages, we would have to lose a lot of money.
"Hey, Aili, are you back to pick someone up?"
The two turned around and saw Shuren in work clothes walking towards them.
Aili introduced, "Yes, this is my cousin Yicheng, and he will work with the boss from now on."
"Brother looks very energetic."
Shuren thought to himself, Aili is also okay. Now that he has become a manager, he can directly arrange for his relatives to join him. This progress is too fast.
Aili took advantage of the situation and asked, "By the way, where is the boss? Just let Yicheng get to know the boss."
Shuren pointed in the direction of the pond. "He is over there, seems to be settling in the newly arrived Pokémon."
"Another new batch of Pokémon has arrived?"
Aili's head is so big.
How long has it been? Here comes another batch of Pokémon.
Yicheng I'm afraid one is not enough. Do you want to recruit another one?
Shuren shrugged:
"It's the ones that the boss said were fostered in Professor Rowan before. It seems to be Omanyte or something."
"Okay, let's go find him."
Aili took Yicheng through the Berry garden and walked towards the pond.
On the way, Yicheng couldn't help but ask, "Sister, what kind of person is our boss? Is he powerful? Is he fierce or not?"
Being able to foster Pokémon with Professor Rowan must be no ordinary person.
Aili thought for a while and organized the language:
"How should I put it... I have a rather annoying personality, but I am a very capable person."
Yicheng blinked, a little surprised by this comment.
"Are you good at fighting?"
In his opinion, those who can run such a large industry must either be rich or powerful.
From what Aili sister means, she should be very good at fighting.
Aili sighed:
"Being able to fight is only one aspect. The key is that he is now a Intermediate Stage trainer, and even Professor Rowan has accepted him as his disciple."
I think that when she came, Yushu was just a reserve-level personnel like her.
How long has it been since Yushu fucked Intermediate Stage directly?
And Aili estimates that it won't take more than two years to reach the senior level.
Yicheng was stunned for a while after hearing this:
"Intermediate Stage cultivator? Disciple of Professor Rowan?"
I'm ashamed, is your reputation so bluffing?
Intermediate Stage cultivator, that is not a qualification that can be obtained casually, let alone being accepted as a disciple by Professor Rowan, what does this mean?
This means that this boss's status in the cultivation world is no less than that of some senior researchers.
"With such a great resume, why did you come to a small town to start a ranch? It's a bit wasteful!"
Intermediate Stage Cultivators either set up Pokémon Day Care in big cities or do research in research institutions.
Ranches and stuff... are not relevant.
Aili said quietly:
"Maybe it's a bad taste."
Yicheng:"???"
He always felt that there was a story in Aili's words.
Soon, the two came to the pond.
The water surface is green and clear, with sparkling waves blown by the breeze.
On the bluestone at the edge of the pond, squatting was a Slowpoke.
Its eyes are half-squinted, its head is slightly drooped, and its expression is wise and distant, as if it has understood the great ways of heaven and earth and the world of mortals.
Aili has long been accustomed to it: That's Slowpoke, it stays in this state all day long and basically doesn't move except for eating."
Yicheng looked at Slowpoke curiously and couldn't help but marvel.
Is this considered a top-notch show? Even in a daze, he can be so elegant!
He withdrew his gaze and looked forward along the pond. He soon saw a slender and tall young figure, squatting by the pond and tinkering with something.
But because the distance was too far, Yicheng couldn't see clearly what it was.
"Boss?"
Aili called out tentatively. Seeing no response, he didn't think much, so he walked over with Yicheng.
However, when they approached, the big shell next to Yushu suddenly moved!
Dozens of Omanyte and Omastar stretched out their bodies at the same time, shook their tentacles, and looked like they were showing off their teeth and claws with astonishing momentum!
"Whaaaah!!!"
Yicheng's face suddenly turned pale, and he launched himself directly behind Aili!
"This, this, this, what is this! How come the shell comes alive!!"
There are a lot of them densely packed with tentacles swaying around, it's really scary!
Aili was also startled by the sudden movement, but after all, she had stayed at the ranch for a while and her mental endurance was much stronger.
Yushu turned around and said, "I am settling these Omanyte. They have to adapt to the environment when they first come here, and they are very obedient."
"Uuuu~uuuu!"
Hearing this, a large group of Omanyte gently shook their tentacles in cooperation, looking a lot more docile and even a little silly.
Yes, yes, they are very good.
Aili looked at these fossils Pokémon with their teeth and claws showing, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Good? The moment they collectively opened the shell, they almost scared the soul out of her brother!
However, Aili was too lazy to talk about Omanyte's appearance with Yushu, and pulled out Yicheng who was hiding behind her!
"Boss, let me introduce to you. This is my new employee, who is also my cousin, Yicheng."
Yicheng was dragged in front of Yushu, and his heartbeat had not completely calmed down. He could only try to force out a smile, but that smile was uglier than crying.
It's over, it's over! The boss was so cowardly on the first day I met him, and his image was completely ruined!
Yushu's eyes fell on the young man and he looked at him carefully.
He has good facial features, body shape Sturdy, and overall appearance is pretty good.
That's the name... well, it sounds like it reminds me of a certain university or something.
Yushu suppressed the thoughts in his heart and maintained the calmness and poise that a boss should have on his face.
"Let me formally introduce myself. I am the owner of this ecological ranch, Yushu. From now on when you work here, just call me boss."
"Hello boss! My name is Yicheng! Please take care of me from now on!"
Although Yushu tried his best to keep a relaxed tone, Yicheng still looked very nervous.
It's nothing else, just the dozens of Omanyte and Omastar behind them with their teeth and claws arrogant.
No one is afraid of leaving it alone!
The tentacles are still moving!
Yushu noticed his nervousness, found a stone to sit on, and motioned to Yicheng to sit down as well:
"Sit down, don't be nervous, these guys are very well-behaved, they are just looking to scare people."
Yicheng tentatively glanced around the Omanyte army, confirming that they had the slightest intention to pounce, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
The atmosphere calmed down and the interview session began.
Yushu asked casually:
"How old are you this year?"
Although Yicheng was called by Aili, Yushu decided to go through the normal process.
He has to show his boss's majesty.
Otherwise, it will be troublesome to manage this kid no matter how big or small he is.
"I am fifteen years old!"
Yicheng answered honestly.
Yushu nodded silently. He was fifteen years old, just under the legal working age limit of Pokémon League.
Not too much, not too little, just right. It is not child labor, so you can hire it with confidence.
"You're only fifteen, why do you want to work?" Yushu asked again.
In the world of Pokémon, the age of fifteen is a watershed in life. Children who are not trainers must either continue their education, just like Aili, who went to school for a few more years and planned to take the route of being a trainer.
Or learn a skill, like Shuren, and become an apprentice in a gym.
But it is relatively rare for people like Yicheng to come out to work directly.
When Yicheng heard this, he subconsciously turned to look at Aili next to him.
Sister, what should I say? Tell the truth or say nice things?
Aili understood his cousin's signal for help and waved his hand carelessly:
"Just tell me what you have to say, the boss is not an outsider."
After being affirmed by her cousin, Yicheng said honestly:
"I don't want to be a trainer, nor do I want to grow apples at home. I heard that my cousin Aili has a good job here, and there are professional trainers to teach me, and I can learn things and make money, so I came here.
Yushu listened and turned to look at Aili with a narrow smile on his face:
"I never thought Aili would praise me."
It's rare that Aili actually cricketed him. He thought that his image in Aili's mind had hit rock bottom.
Aili rolled his eyes on the spot and mumbled over.
So what did she say? She said she was doing 996 every day, and that this boss was just trying to make a big pie?
When you go out, your identity is given by yourself.
Yushu asked again, "Have you told your cousin in advance about the workload of the ranch? Don't run away because you're tired when you get here."
Aili said seriously, "I must have said it, otherwise I wouldn't have brought him here."
Yicheng was brought by her, so of course she had to explain the situation clearly. If she ran away after working for two days, wouldn't she want to lose face?
Yicheng also nodded in agreement:
"Sister Aili told me, and I think it's okay. When I was at Kitakami, I was growing apples at home, and I did a lot of work, so I didn't feel tired."
No matter how tiring the pasture is, how can it be more tiring than growing fruits?
Yushu nodded with satisfaction.
Not afraid of hardship or tiredness, this is a good thing - no, it is a good quality.
He was just about to finalize the employment matter when a key word suddenly caught his mind. He was slightly startled, raised his eyes and asked:
"Wait a minute, you just said you are from Kitakami?"
Yicheng nodded, a little surprised that the boss actually knew his hometown, and asked curiously:
"Yes! Kitakami! Boss, have you heard of our place?"
"I've heard of it, but I've never been there."
Of course Yushu knows Kitakami.
Kitakami is not the name of a certain town, but the general name of a large area.
He only knew that the place was at Sinnoh Region, but he really didn't know where it was exactly.
But this is not important, what is important is...
Kitakami There is a little widow!
Why don't we find a chance to go over there and take a look?
The Aili family is also available.
The cousin lives in Alamos Town with Darkrai, and the cousin lives in Kitakami with Ogerpon.
That's right, I'll have someone to guide me wherever I go from now on.
