Leisurely daily life in the elf world

"Suck it~"

In an old seafood noodle restaurant in Liuli City, Rong Qi, Hanba Wawa, Geng Gui Ming Ling, and Mikoli's junior brother Ji Bai were holding a big bowl of noodles and slurping them.

As a coastal city, Liuli City has not only beaches and oceans, but also abundant seafood products and delicious seafood dishes.

Just like the old noodle shop where Rong Qi and his friends are, this century-old shop has been passed down to this day not only by relying on a pot of delicious fish bone broth noodles, but the snacks in the shop are also unique in flavor.

"Dear guests, your seafood platter is here."

A dark-skinned young man came over with several plates of steamed seafood.

"Fuck!"

The boiling hot oil collides with minced garlic and chopped green onions, and the crispy and tender shellfish meat is wrapped in the hot oil with the aroma of green onions and garlic, making the originally bland shellfish meat more plump.

"Suck it~"

After swallowing the last mouthful of the thick soup, Rong Qi picked up the gloves beside him and prepared to start eating the tempting plate of seafood in front of him.

The crab, which is bigger than the palm of your hand, was steamed until it was bright red. When you pick it up whole, even its legs are not loose. It is obvious that it is fresh seafood.

Use gloves to pry open the crab shell, clean out the inedible crab gills, then hold both sides of the crab and fold them hard.

"Gah bang~"

The crab shell containing crab roe and crab meat is broken into two halves.

Rong Qi is not a person who lives by the sea, so his way of eating crabs is very simple and rough. He stuffs the entire crab shell with meat into his mouth, and then uses his teeth to squeeze out the crab meat and shell.

Although there will be some broken shells that affect the taste, the deliciousness of the crab meat is enough for Rong Qi to forgive these minor flaws.

After catching a crab, he picked up a piece of shellfish meat dipped in scallion oil. The crispy and tender shellfish meat collided with his teeth, and the sweet taste filled his mouth.

Because the raw materials are fresh enough, the seafood on the table is not seasoned with any extra ingredients, but is served with a few dipping sauces.

However, Rong Qi felt that even without the taste of the dipping sauce, the seafood itself tasted delicious enough.

When I go back, I must buy some dried shrimps, fish balls and shrimp cakes. These are things that suit his taste, so I must buy more.

Rong Qi picked up a string of grilled fish balls. The fish balls made from fresh fish meat were chewy and had a salty taste of the ocean.

Sprinkle some dried seaweed on top, which might be a good choice to pair with beer.

The surface of the charcoal-grilled fish balls is a bit crispy, and there is a slight "crunch" sound when you bite it.

Just as Rong Qi and the others were enjoying their meal, Mikoli, who had just left, returned to the table.

(￣～￣) chew

"What did you do just now?"

Rong Qi swallowed the food in his mouth and asked Mikoli.

Although some areas of Glass City were indeed affected by the battle between Kyogre and Groudon, these affairs were handled by the mayor of Glass City and Mikoli's master, Adam, the master of the Glass Gym.

Most of the trainers who participated in the operation to stop Groudon and Kyogre chose to leave after their Pokémon's injuries recovered.

Only a few people like Rong Qi choose to play in Liuli City for a while.

Most young trainers are still very motivated.

"Nothing, just some things that need to be taken care of."

At this point, a trace of sadness flashed between Mikoli's brows.

Rong Qi, who had just finished eating a crab, took a sip of Fat House Happy Water and smacked his lips in satisfaction.

"whats the matter?"

Rong Qi asked.

"Didn't Groudon leave behind some elevated land when it returned to the original world? After cooling down, the elevated land formed a small island. Master and the mayor plan to build a resort on the island to boost the economic recovery of Liuli City."

Mikoli said to Rong Qi.

As a coastal city, a considerable portion of Liuli City's finances comes from foreign tourists.

In an old store like the one they are in now, in the past, you had to make reservations in advance to get a seat.

The number of people would not be like today, with only some local people from Liuli City visiting.

"Tabu Nai~"

"Gengar~"

Almost Wawa and Geng Gui Mingling held up the empty special large bowls in front of them, indicating that Rong Qi and the others wanted another bowl of seafood ramen.

"Okay, got it, Boss! Two more extra-large seafood ramen with fish balls, crab legs, squid, shellfish, and fish fillets, and four more seafood platters, large ones."

"it is good!"

After ordering some more food for Almost Baby and Geng Gui Ming Ling, Rong Qi said to Mikoli.

"Isn't this a good thing? I remember that this is the path where the king whales migrate. If we use watching king whales as a selling point, it should be very attractive."

"That's true, but when Groudon lifted the land, it brought out a lot of seabed silt and destroyed the surrounding coral seabed. It will take at least two years to repair the coral reefs and clean up the seabed silt."

Mikoli felt helpless.

The battle between Groudon and Kyogre destroyed most of the beautiful and lush coral reefs outside of Liuli City.

Even with the power of the elves, it would be difficult to repair it.

"And not many people are willing to accept the dredged seabed mud."

Mikoli felt helpless.

"Why, seabed mud can be made into a very popular fertilizer."

Rong Qi was a little puzzled. The seabed silt, like volcanic ash, was a natural plant fertilizer. Rong Qi's farm produced most of the volcanic ash produced on Chimney Mountain and the subsidiary minerals of the Fire Stone vein.

With these natural fertilizers and the careful care of the grass-type elves, the quality of the fruits on his farm will be better than those on the market, and the selling price will be higher.

"Most of the farmers in Fangyuan have already purchased fertilizers and seeds, so the current market demand is not strong."

Mikoli said helplessly.

"Is this so?"

Rong Qi was thoughtful. The herbs on his farm could already be harvested. According to his plan, the land on the farm would have a three-month recovery period, and he would start planting again after this period.

Rong Qi thought about it and decided to help Mikoli and the others deal with some seabed silt.

"Really."

Mikoli looked very surprised.

"I have to see the effect first. Besides, my farm alone cannot digest so much seabed sludge."

Rong Qi emphasized to Mikoli.

“It’s good to be able to solve part of the problem.”

It seemed that Mikoli's mood brightened up a little because of Rong Qi's actions.

"I'll take you to see the cleaned up seabed mud later. You can make a decision after you see it."

"it is good."

Rong Qi nodded, looked at the dishes on the table that had been eaten up by Geng Gui Ming Ling and Almost Baby, picked up the menu and turned around and shouted again:

"Boss, take your order!"

"Here it comes~"

……

“Is this the mud from the seabed that was cleaned out?”

Rong Qi covered his nose and looked at the seabed mud that had been condensed into rectangular bricks by the rock elves.

The black bricks condensed from the sea water by the rock elves smelled foul.

It needs to be processed before it can be transported to the farm.

Rong Qi doesn't want his farm to be made smelly by these things.

"Yes, more than 200 tons have been extracted from the seawater in the past few days alone."

Mikoli looked somewhat helpless.

Although Kyogre and Groudon have been defeated, the impact they caused will take a long time to resolve.

In addition to the seabed silt brought up by the lifted land, there is also the sea path created by Groudon when he rushed to Liuli City.

The rocky path that rises from the seabed blocks the fishermen's route to the sea, and the Alliance is organizing trainers to remove it.

There were also heavy rains caused by Kyogre, which led to floods and mudslides in some parts of the Alliance.

So there is a reason why Kyogre and Groudon have such a bad reputation in the Hoenn region.

If you want to fight, just fight. Why overturn the table? Moreover, these two guys not only overturned the table, they also smashed it and kicked the people who were eating.

How could the people of Hoenn not be angry about this?

Fortunately, my farm is located in a plain and I have built drainage facilities myself, so I don’t have to worry about too much loss.

After negotiating the price with the relevant person in charge of Mikoli, Rong Qi placed the order happily.

In the next few days, Rong Qi wandered around Liuli City again and did not return until it was time to pick the herbs on the farm.

After returning to the farm, Rong Qi had no time to rest, but instead rode Absol to check on the growth of herbs and fruits on the farm.

Several tree fruits, including peach fruit, wood seed fruit, sand scale fruit, etc., have ripened, and the grass-type elves in charge of looking after them are using vine whips to pick these fruits.

According to the size and type of the fruits, the fruits are divided into different bamboo baskets.

Later someone will come to buy it at a different price.

As for the herbs grown on the farm, most of them are raw materials for the healing spray. After Rong Qi processes them, they will be sent to the factory by people sent by Daigo to be processed into finished healing spray.

Grass-type elves are responsible for picking berries, psychic-type elves are responsible for testing and sorting the berries, and other elves are responsible for transporting the berries to the cold storage on the farm.

After three days of continuous work, Rong Qi and his team finally finished picking the ripe fruits on the farm.

During this period, Rong Qi was not idle. With the help of Hanbawanwawa, Rong Qi was communicating with various merchants.

Because the quality of the fruit is high enough, the price definitely needs to be negotiated.

In the past few days, Rong Qi has completely changed from a trainer who saved Hoenn to a role model of a stingy capitalist, and his opponents are stunned by what he says.

After the other party signed the contract in a daze, Rong Qi sent him out with a smile on his face.

It's so funny. He learned it from the heir of Hoenn's biggest capital boss, so it's relatively easy for him to negotiate a price.

"Whoo~"

Only after the last transport truck loaded the remaining fruits for me did Rong Qi's face reveal a relaxed expression.

The farm is large in area and grows a lot of fruit trees and herbs.

The fruits that Rong Qi sold were only a part of the trees. In the remaining two months, the fruits on the farm will continue to mature, and the farm will enter its busiest period during this period.

"Kuowu~"

Singing mantises waved their sickles in the medicinal fields and cut the herbs. The cut herbs would be collected by the Moonstones using their super powers, and then taken to the pharmaceutical processing plant in Kanaz City by transport vehicles outside for processing.

In addition to Scyther, Pokémon such as Fluttershy and Nidoking are also helping on the farm.

Even the bluebirds picked up baskets of herbs in their claws and flew out of the farm.

Rong Qi was sitting on a recliner in front of the villa, wearing a straw hat on his head. On the table next to him were sliced ​​iced watermelon and peach milkshake.

If it weren't for his inconsistent appearance, Rong Qi's current image would be that of a hateful landlord who exploits the elves' labor force.

Landlord Mr. Rong looked at the thriving scene of labor on the farm with satisfaction, and took the computer beside him to open his account.

After seeing the transfer information and a string of zeros without a decimal point after my account number.

Master Rong nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad. The price of berries is very good this year, and the demand for healing spray is also stable."

Rong Qi was very happy when he saw the payment information appearing in his account again.

"Feng Lingling, do you think I should get a private jet? Otherwise, it would feel a bit weird to be taken away by Daigo every time."

Rong Qi picked up the big-tailed horse lying on the ground and took it into his arms. He touched the big-tailed horse's sleek body and said.

"Li~"

Daweili lay in Rong Qi's arms, like a giant caterpillar.

The only difference is that this caterpillar has a cute face like a kitten, a soft body like a ferret, and four cute little paws.

"forget it."

Before Feng Lingling could answer Rong Qi's question, he muttered to himself:

"If you buy a private jet, you still have to maintain it. The maintenance cost is more expensive than the jet itself. So forget it."

"Bell~"

as long as you are happy.

Feng Lingling replied to Rong Qi perfunctorily, and then expanded her superpowers to the farm.

Seeing this, Rong Qi also added his own abilities and characteristics.

Feng Lingling didn't refuse either.

With Rong Qi's superpowers, it became much easier for her to monitor the farm.

Tanabata bluebirds were flying over the farm, some of them carrying wicker baskets full of herbs in their claws.

Prepare to fly to the farm and hand it over to the elves and workers for transportation.

"Ouch~"

Just as the elves on the farm were working hard, an orange-yellow dragon shadow came rushing from the distant sky, and it seemed that it had no intention of slowing down.

Just when the Qixi Bluebird, who was in charge of the alert, was about to notify the other elves, the orange-yellow dragon shadow suddenly stopped at the entrance of the farm.

"Sigh~"

The Qixi Bluebird saw the dragon shadow hovering at the farm gate, flapped its wings and flew over to check it out.

“It should be here.”

A red-haired man climbed down from Dragonite's back and muttered to himself as he looked at the farm gate in front of him and the surrounding orchard.

"Du! You didn't wait for me again."

Before the red-haired man could open the communication to inquire about the situation, an angry girl's voice sounded behind him.

The same orange-yellow dragon shadow fell, and a young girl walked towards them menacingly from Dragonite's back.
