This elf world is kind of weird

Chapter 43 Big Sister’s Little Gift (640, first order please!)

Miare Pokémon Mall is located in the busiest business district of Miare City, and it is the largest Pokémon store in Miare and even Carlos.

In the mall, there is a sales area uniformly arranged by the alliance, like a large friendship supermarket, and there are also counters from companies from various regions, selling various supplies, especially various high-end supplies.

From the most basic daily necessities, to many high-end rare supplies, and even some well-qualified Pokémon eggs or babies hatched and cultivated by some top breeding houses, it can be said that everything is available.

It can be said that from conventional channels, except for some auctions and local specialties, things that cannot be bought here are difficult to come across in other places.

Although he had expected it a long time ago and had watched many promotional videos here on the Internet, when he saw this majestic giant building with his own eyes, Philio was still a little surprised and stood there, looked carefully, and silently calculated it. the size of.

"Haha! Brother Philio, this is your first time here, right? I remember when I was young, I was dazzled when I first came here. After you go in, you will find that the good things really are There are many, but unfortunately money is limited.”

After a little familiarity, Ge Jihua acted like a senior and a big sister, patted Filio on the back, and told him in detail the layout of the mall and information about various high-quality stores, which made him nod slightly I deeply feel that shopping is also a university question.

"Don't think my sister is stingy. Although my sister is the owner of the gymnasium, she still has to spend a penny in half. Baike is not a rich place, and the income is not as good as that of gymnasiums in big cities, but Expenditures in all aspects may not necessarily be less.”

Speaking of the latter, Ge Jihua herself was a little embarrassed and quickly explained a few words.

Philio shook his head, looked seriously at this mature, steady, open-minded and talkative senior, who treated people very sincerely, and said, "Thinking carefully is not a derogatory term at any time, and money should not be wasted. I have learned a lot from seniors! Rather, if possible, I should ask seniors more about this aspect."

"Oh? You, a young mid-level breeder, actually think so. Are you short of money? You shouldn't be. Aren't you nicknamed the Humanoid Cash Cow? And you only have two Pokémon now."

Looking Filio up and down, Gejihua found that his own clothes did not seem to be high-end, but very neat and tidy, making his whole person look clean and sunny.

However, Ibrahimovic and the Dream Demon are well trained, obviously spending a lot of thought and money. Ibrahimovic may not be close, but the Dream Demon is really flawless, especially considering that it is just a gym-level monster. A Pokémon that didn't last long.

Feeling Gujihua's gaze, Filio smiled bitterly and laughed at himself: "I'm not just short of money. To put it bluntly, I'm heavily in debt. If I pay off my debt, I won't be able to buy anything today. . Strictly speaking, my consumption pattern is not moonlight. It is about earning money and spending it. The time the money is in my pocket may not last more than a week at a time. Maybe it is better to call it Zhou Guang."

"Then we are a bit alike, which means that the thread of fate has brought us together."

Ge Jihua, who was amused by Philio, once again showed her professional skills as a prophet, and the light of superpowers lit up. She seemed to be a little more noble out of thin air, and then quickly returned to normal before everyone noticed.

Powerful gym masters and seniors occasionally have a childish side.

"Let's go, go in and have a look, first I will help you to set up the energy cube manufacturing machine, you are the golden job of my partners, don't make any mistakes~"

"Okay, Senior Kujihua."

-

"This area is full of energy cube making machines sold by various regions and major companies. The styles are different, but they are still the same. You are a real expert in this area, and I, a 'half-time local snake', can only I can take you here, but it’s up to you to choose what you want.”

At the corner of the third floor, Ge Jihua stopped and pointed out a large business area in front of him to Philio who was beside him.

The energy cube maker in the Kanto area has a larger energy capacity, but it is simple and rough to make, and there is no portable version, it is quite bulky and only suitable for home use.

The Johto area is similar to Kanto, and also implements the simple and crude core principles, but at least there are portable models, although it is still in its infancy, it can be regarded as a beginning.

The energy cube manufacturing machines in Fengyuan area are more than light, but the fineness is not enough. Presumably, the rich tree fruit resources in the area have spoiled many enterprises and breeders, making them think that energy loss is nothing, and they are full of the spirit of a big dog.

The Sinnoh area is the opposite of the Fengyuan area. It is also light and has a high degree of refinement, but it is very difficult to operate. The barren natural environment allows them to implement the principle of making full use of every resource and energy, and also allows them to There are extremely high requirements for the professional ability of the breeder.

Hezhong area mainly focuses on high-end brands, which are expensive, and the quality is also achieved on the basis of stacking materials.

The Alola and Galar regions are mediocre. The former is a bit crude and the latter is a bit quaint, neither of which is truly top quality.

The Carlos region is different and can be said to be unique.

The energy cube making machine here is not weaker than others in terms of good looks. It is light and beautiful, and easy to carry. But other than that, it is relatively balanced in terms of high EQ.

It would be a bit inconvenient to describe if I had a low EQ.

For Philio, who is an expert and has superpowers that are most suitable for energy cube preparation, it would be a waste of life and irresponsible for his wallet to look at other regions.

The Sinnoh machine, which was ridiculously cost-effective, was the love of his life.

Going straight to the special counter of the Celebration Industry Group in the Sinnoh area, he carefully looked at several star products.

In fact, he didn't have much to worry about, it was just whether to buy a high-end or a top-notch energy cube making machine.

At his current level, the master-level formula is definitely impossible to understand and make. The advanced formula, using a top-level manufacturing machine, is good, but a bit wasteful, especially for a cultivator like him who is very skilled and does not need equipment support. .

He had to use every bit of savings carefully, and he was lost in thought.

"Little Philio, although I don't understand, I still suggest that you do it in one step. Your talent is definitely not limited to making advanced cubes, right? It's not a problem to use a machine for many years. Wouldn't it be good to get familiar with it in advance? ?”

Standing aside and watching for a while, Ge Jihua leaned forward and whispered a reminder in Philio's ear.

She also admired this warm-hearted junior, and hoped that he would understand that saving money should not be spent on just necessities.

And compared with the formula, the price of the machine can actually be said to be very cheap.

For the production of energy cubes, or the field where breeders need to use professional equipment, the real expensive thing has always been craftsmanship rather than machines.

The high-end energy cube making machine costs 80 alliance coins, the top one costs 120 million alliance coins, and the portable and miniaturized version costs an additional 30 on the same level. Even if it is done in one step, it is 150 million alliance coins. For Filipinos with more than 300 million deposits, As far as Leo is concerned, it is actually acceptable.

"Hmm." Gritting his teeth, Philio made up his mind, "Hi, I want this portable version of the Tianguan III top-level energy cube manufacturing machine, and pay with a credit card."

-

The decline in the amount of deposits allowed Philio to experience the real feeling of consumption, but also deeply felt that money is indeed something that cannot be suppressed, pouring out like running water, and disappearing in a blink of an eye.

"Do you feel the sense of loss after spending money happily?"

Looking at Filio, who looked a little complicated, Ge Jihua couldn't help laughing, and patted the man who looked too mature at first, but now he looks more like a junior to the people around him.

Philio nodded: "Indeed, it feels that way."

"That's right, sister came here this way, so in order to make you happy, sister prepared a small gift for you."

There was a bit of playfulness in her voice, and Gejihua deliberately put her hands behind her back to show off a little bit, arousing Filio's interest.

"Swish"

There was a flash of blue light, and a booklet appeared out of thin air and landed in Filio's hand.

".!"

Filio's eyes widened, he didn't realize it.

"How is it? How is it? The untold secret of the Hundred Carved Gymnasium, the blindfold of fate, handsome or not?"

Satisfied with Filio's surprise, Gujihua showed off with a smile.

The super-powered Mew, who came out of the elf ball at some point, nodded vigorously and was very satisfied with the combined effect of himself and his trainer.

"It's really handsome, but what's the reason?"

The sudden unknown ignited Philio's curiosity, and he didn't care to open it to check, he had to solve his inner confusion first.

"The principle is in this booklet! To predict the future, this little Eevee has a very good talent, but it can't show it yet, right? This skill is just suitable for it to learn. Although its reaction ability cannot be improved quickly, it can't be improved quickly. If you could see even a fraction of the future, the situation would be different, right? How about this, are you satisfied with this gift from my sister?"

After touching Filio's head, the eldest sister smiled sweetly.

"It's more than satisfied, thank you so much, senior. This really relieved my urgent need."

Philio closed the manual he had just opened, put it on his chest, bowed slightly, and thanked him solemnly.

"March!"

".Buy!"

Seeing Philio thanking him, the two little guys followed suit and expressed their gratitude to Ge Jihua obediently, but little Ibrahimovic was a little slower, looking a little annoyed.

"You're welcome. Compared to the money you're going to save me on the energy cube, this is nothing. Besides, you call me senior, right? Senior should look like senior!"

Patting her chest lightly, Ge Jihua said nonchalantly, but immediately changed the subject.

"But, little Philio, this training method is the true inheritance of Bai Ke Gym. True inheritance means sophisticated and expensive. Are you mentally prepared for this?"

"Senior, what kind of supplies do you need?"

With Nazi's precedent, Philio also had a basic understanding of the cost of this top-notch skill training manual. He swallowed his saliva and asked in a deep voice.

"You need a lot of spiritual herbs and a good quality spiritual seed to make the introduction. The spiritual seeds sold here will cost about 50, and the amount of spiritual herbs is not small, 150 million alliance coins. However, this is our Baike Dao One of the specialty products of the museum, how about my sister giving you a [-]% discount? If you want to buy spiritual vanilla in the future, it will be the same~"

Ge Jihua, who had already settled the account in his mind, reported a series of numbers without thinking.

"Do high-quality spiritual seeds cost 50 now?"

Filio silently chewed on the information that Gejihua inadvertently revealed. The spiritual seeds on the market are one hundred thousand higher than Nazi's asking price, and the quality may not be as good as the collection of the Golden Gym.

It was just a one-way relationship that day, and I owed such a favor.

Although it was due to Nazi's personality, Phileo was not a person who would not repay his kindness, so he silently wrote it down and waited for the reward in the future.

"That's right, the ordinary ones are about 40, but the better ones cost 50." Seeing that Filio was a little silent, Ge Jihua said, "If you don't have enough money, my sister can lend you some first, how about it? From the back Just consider the OEM fee."

"Ah, no, senior, I just thought of something. I have high-quality spiritual seeds in my hand, so this money can be saved. For spiritual herbs, I will transfer the money to you now."

After coming back to his senses, Filio nodded, and with a little effort, he transferred the money to Gejihua again.

As a result, after taking into account his parents' support and the income from OEM work before departure, he only had about 90 alliance coins left in savings.

And this last sum of money, he had already thought about it.

-

"Maki~Maki~!"

Wearing a brand new "little cloak", the little dream demon flew around in the air.

"Is it actually the cloth of the spirit world? Do you want to strengthen the sneak attack? This thing is rare, and I don't think there are many people who usually buy it, otherwise you won't be able to buy such a high-end one for 60."

With her arms folded, Ge Jihua had a rough guess about Phileo's thoughts.

"Yes, it is the potential spirit."

"Marge!——"

Filio had just finished speaking when he was choked back.

[The dream monster used the combined skill "Face Hugger", which was extremely effective and Filio lost his ability to fight. 】

"You guys have such a good relationship. I've rarely seen ghost-type Pokémon be so close to their trainers, and I've rarely seen them so lively, except for that little girl from Hoenn."

Ge Jihua nodded, very appreciative.

".Phew, little dream monster, wait until you get back to make out. Actually, it's nothing. The little dream monster can use it, and it likes it very much. It's worth the money, as long as I can afford it."

Gently taking off the little dream monster that was still hanging crookedly, Filio shook his head with a sincere tone.

Or borrow it.

He swallowed the remaining half of the sentence.

The figures of Korni and Nazi appeared in my mind.

He quickly shook his head to get rid of such corrupt and degenerate thoughts.

Debt is not a long-term solution and must be paid off as soon as possible.

Philio secretly made up his mind.

".Buy!"

"jingle"

At his feet, Ibrahimovic also nodded vigorously, the comfort bell on his chest made a pleasant sound, and the evolutionary stone also trembled.

Wisps of energy seep from the expensive props and merge into the bodies of the two Pokémon. Although the effect is not obvious, it is better than a long stream of water without side effects.

-

The bowl of water that had been promised long ago was finally completed, but Philio himself was running out of money, and there was not much money left when he went back to Abe to buy a wave of berries.

Although Nazi didn't urge to pay it back, Philio, who owed the money, was somewhat anxious.

As soon as the money is less, the desire to shop drops sharply, and the protagonist of shopping also changes.

As a big sister and senior, Ge Jihua did not hesitate to grab Filio's young man, and took him to the tree fruit area, asking him to help choose useful and affordable tree fruits, and it took a long time to pick them.

It was already noon when Ge Jihua, who was pushing a cart and humming, took Fillio out of the mall.

"Sure enough, experts are different. You saved at least 10,000+ alliance currency for my sister this trip. Let's go, I'll treat you to a big meal, and you can compete with me in the afternoon. How about it? I know a training center, the venue Very good, I also really want to see the level of your Ibrahimovic and Dream Demon, the scene with little Nazi, my sister couldn't enjoy watching it!"

Putting a hand on his forehead to slightly block the sun, Gejihua suggested enthusiastically.

Philio nodded slightly: "Then respect is worse than obedience, senior, thank you for your advice."

-

Salo College, Principal's Office.

"Hahahahaha! This little guy, Philio, has made such a big deal out of silence! Those two old guys will definitely lose their faces!"

Holding last night's newspaper in hand, the old principal Muriel burst into laughter. Thornton and Milia were sitting on the sofa not far away, and they were also a little surprised.

"I didn't expect that when he went out to take an assessment, he could easily take care of those brats from Miare College. This is really big news. Miare's sad day was not yesterday. What he said was really very characteristic of him. style."

Thornton smiled, feeling inexplicably proud.

"Milia, Thornton, what do you think this kid is short of? Apart from being extremely poisonous this time, his hole cards are almost exposed. But the same is true for the other side. I didn't expect that Miare College was actually built in a generation of students. It’s a half-baked system, let the chief Sean be the weatherman, and the trump card must be the foreign aid Walter.”

Unfolding the newspaper and pointing to the main players of the Miare College representative team above, Muriel spoke solemnly.

At this moment, he already had the idea of ​​competing with the other party for supremacy.

Thornton didn't think about it: "The lineup. Meng Yao is invincible in the same level. Even if it is Walter, it can't be solved from the Miare Conference. But Ibrahimovic may not grow up quickly, even if he grows up, he is still close , at least one powerful Pokémon is needed."

"I don't know much about battles, but that kid is very emotional, and Pogaman is very suitable, but it seems to be."

Milia hesitated, frowned slightly, and shook her head slightly.

"Pogaman."

Thinking of this little guy who was also very special in the academy's breeding house, Muriel sighed, feeling a little complicated.
