Pokémon: A Strong Man from the Slums

drop by drop...

Wang Chen’s space watch rang, and the callers were his three subordinates.

"Master Wang Chen, the plan has been completed. There were two researchers who secretly hid ancient elf fossils in the Shining Cave. Now we have found them all, a total of six pieces."

This is a message from Chester and Owen.

"Master Wang Chen, I have been exploring frantically in the Shining Caverns and finally found a fossil of an ancient elf."

This is a message from the tomb robber Carter.

"Okay, I declare the mission over. We will immediately return with the ancient elf fossils to report.

As for the technicians and practitioners, give them one month's funding first, and let them continue to play with the researchers in Guxiang Town." Wang Chen replied.

Three hours later, Owen, Chester, Carter and Wang Chen gathered at the beach in Guxiang Town.

"We obtained a total of seven ancient elf fossils in this mission. We should be able to get a lot of benefits after returning, so let's go now." Wang Chen said.

"Yes! Lord Wang Chen!"

Then the group of four quickened their pace and returned to the Flash Team's base in Shixiang Town.

Two days later, at the Flash Team base in Shixiang Town.

"It's been less than a month, and you have completed the task and obtained seven ancient elf fossils in one go. Wang Chen, I was right about you! You are such a talent!" Kevin said with satisfaction.

"It is my honor to serve Lord Kevin. Please accept these seven ancient elf fossils." Wang Chen said respectfully.

"Hahaha! Great! This ancient elf fossil can be exchanged for 20,000 points in the points mall. Seven pieces equal 140,000 points. According to the rules, I have to take 70%.

Wang Cheng, you can take 20%, and the remaining 10% will be shared by Owen and the others.

Here are 42,000 points. You can take them for now and remember to distribute them to your subordinates later. I will take all the fossils." Kevin said.

"Yes, sir!" Wang Chen replied respectfully.

"Your performance this time is very good. I will propose to the higher-ups to promote you to squadron leader as an exception. Perform well and you will be close to promotion!" Kevin said lightly.

"Thank you for your kindness, sir! I will definitely perform well!" Wang Chen said respectfully.

Of course, Wang Chen also knew that Kevin was most likely just making empty promises, just like some of the leaders in his previous life’s company, who often said nonsense like “Work hard, and the future will be yours.”

Wang Chen didn't believe a word of this.

Wang Chen no longer cares whether he can be promoted in the Flash Team.

After all, he has already got in touch with Susanna, and now Susanna should have reported to the alliance that Wang Chen is his informant.

Wang Chen doesn't want to stay in the Flash Team forever and end up perishing with the Flash Team.

Wang Chen will eventually throw himself into the arms of the alliance. After clearing his identity, he will have much more room for maneuver.

So now, whether Kevin takes advantage of him or makes big promises for him, he doesn't care and will just endure it for now.

"Well, you can move freely for the next month or so, but I'm curious, where are you going to move freely?" Kevin asked.

"Your Excellency, I am preparing to go to Aromatherapy City." Wang Chen responded.

Wang Chen was not lying. His next plan was to go to Aromatherapy City to train elves and make money.

The Aromatherapy Market can be said to be an indispensable part of Wang Chen’s future strategy and is extremely important to Wang Chen.

"Aromatherapy City? Okay, okay! Then you remember, don't come back for more than a month. Stay on standby in Aromatherapy City. There will be things that require your cooperation at that time." Kevin said.

"It's my lord!"

Then Kevin waved his hand and asked Wang Chen to leave.

Wang Chen transferred 28,000 points into his own account, divided the rest among his three subordinates, and then went back.

At this moment, Wang Chen had a full 36,000 points in his hands.

"My free time will expire in more than a month, and they still want me to stay in Aromatherapy City and not come back. If I stay in Aromatherapy City, they want me to 'cooperate' instead of doing tasks alone. Could it be that..."

After returning to his residence, Wang Chen began to think carefully.

Wang Chen heard a lot from Kevin’s words just now. This Flash Flame Team might be going to make a big move in Aromatherapy City!

"In the original story, Team Flare directly robbed the Poké Ball factory in Aroma City, and Poké Ball manufacturing is one of the pillar industries of Aroma City. Team Flare will severely damage Aroma City after the rob...

And according to the nature of Team Flare in the real world, they are looting the Poké Ball factory, but I'm afraid other places in Aroma City will also be affected. This is an opportunity for me."

The more Wang Chen thought about it, the more he felt there was a chance. If Team Flash was going to attack Aromatherapy City so soon, then Wang Chen's plan could be implemented much earlier.

“After Aroma City is looted by Team Flash, it will most likely cause panic, and many merchants will probably not dare to stay in Aroma City.

The aromatherapy market is likely to face economic recession and depression, but this situation will not last forever. I can take advantage of this window of opportunity to make some moves in the aromatherapy market."

The period from when Aroma City was looted by Team Flash to when the panic in Aroma City ended was a huge window period, during which some industries in Aroma City could be purchased at low prices.

In addition, Wang Chen can also bring the special industry practitioners from Miare City who were previously accepted to Aromatherapy City, where they can resume their old jobs.

The land of comfort created by this special industry can be said to be Wang Chen's ultimate weapon for corrupting people from all walks of life.

"Huh! I have already made a plan in my mind, but I still have to do it step by step. First, let Owen and Chester take those practitioners to the Aromatherapy City.

I will use the points to exchange for some resources for training Pokémon, bring them all to Aromatherapy City, and then train a wave of Pokémon well, and try to make Nidoking and Slowpoke reach the level of gym owner!" Wang Chen thought.

Then Wang Chen used the space watch to send messages to his three subordinates, telling them what to do next.

After receiving the message, the three subordinates rushed to the Xiangxun City and began to make the arrangements as Wang Chen had mentioned.

Wang Chen spent a total of 6,000 points and exchanged them for a lot of good things in the Flash Team’s points mall.

He wanted to make sure his elves were using the best he had so far.

For example, energy blocks must at least be high-level. It’s not that Wang Chen doesn’t want to use top-level energy blocks, but energy blocks of this level are rarely seen in the Flash Team’s points mall, and there is no recipe for top-level energy blocks.

The elf breeding method has also been comprehensively upgraded. By combining the methods given to him by Susanna and the other two girls, and combining them with the advanced elf breeding methods in the Flash Team’s points mall, it can be said that everything has been taken into consideration.
