Chapter 3: Make money, not shabby

Too crystallized.

As a special phenomenon that occurs to Pokémon unique to the Padia region, its status is equivalent to the three "special systems" unique to the Pokémon world: Mega Evolution, Z Moves, and Gigantamax.

Its effect is extremely powerful and can temporarily change the attributes of a Pokémon.

Even changing from dragon type to fairy type, or from fire type to water type can be done.

When changing the attributes, you will also enjoy the damage bonus consistent with the attributes of the changed attribute moves, which can greatly enhance the combat ability of Pokémon.

Now Luo Mu is in the timeline of the Padya region. As far as he knows, Tai Crystallization has been researched by the couple Dr. Futu and Dr. Olin.

However, due to the lack of channels to obtain raw materials in large quantities, Tai Crystalization has not yet been promoted. The battle between him and the chief champion Ye Ci did not use Tai Crystalization.

As the chief champion, Ye Ci definitely has the Tai Jing Pearl, but Luo Mu does not.

The value of the Taijing pearl ore, which is properly wrapped and protected by the Taijing crystal shell formed by the Taijing energy dissipated underground in the Padiya area, is very high.

It is so high that it can enable Luo Mu, who is now struggling on the poverty line, to return to a well-off life.

Sell ​​it to Yeci!

In a flash, this idea quickly appeared in Luo Mu's mind.

However, the special prompt system was like crazy, constantly popping up words in front of his eyes.

[I know you want to sell it, no! You are not allowed to sell it!]

[With it, your Pokémon's strength can be greatly improved. Why sell it? 】

[Wuwuwu, please don't sell it, okay? I promise I can help you when you build your farm! ]

【This is my lifelong request! 】

"."

Luo Mu was speechless. What a humble system. It was as if he was bullying people.

"I can leave it here, but you have to be there whenever I need a reminder, okay?"

[Monkey, no problem! ]

Seeing the fonts that clearly showed his happy mood, Luo Mu sighed and accepted this special reminder system in his heart.

This guy looks silly and probably doesn't have any ulterior motives. It's not a bad idea to have someone to chat with to relieve boredom.

After moving all the furniture and items that needed to be exposed to the sun outside with Swampert, Luo Mu reached out and fist-bumped with Swampert's right palm, then said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work. We'll make a big meal tonight. Let's go back to the Poké Ball and rest first."

Swampert nodded, touched the Poké Ball that belonged to him among the six Poké Balls on Luo Mu's waist, and turned into a red light and disappeared into it.

Luo Mu stretched and glanced across the ground.

In addition to the furniture that needed to be exposed to the sun, the sealed cartons had also been opened by him, and the things inside were lying quietly on the ground in a scattered manner.

He had searched through everything inside, and apart from some photos of the old couple, there was almost nothing useful.

Luo Mu planned to pack up these things later and take them to the old couple's grave.

In addition, he also found several bags of unlabeled plant seeds, probably seeds of some flowers and plants.

Unfortunately, these seeds are no longer usable. The old couple probably did not preserve them when they bought them.

Moreover, a long time has passed, and even if it was preserved, it might not have survived until now.

The only thing that can be considered an unexpected gain is the Taijingzhu ore in his hand, right?

Thinking of this, Luo Mu played with the Taijingzhu ore in his hand, hesitated for a while, and took out his mobile phone to make a call.

Beep.beep, the call was quickly connected.

"That's strange. Why did you suddenly think of calling me today, Champion Luo Mu?"

The voice on the other end of the line was Ye Ci, the chief champion and president of the Padiya Alliance. "I have retired. President, just call me by my name."

Luo Mu had no choice but to correct Ye Ci's address, because after he had developed in the Padia area for a period of time, he was naturally noticed by Ye Ci.

After they got to know each other, they became much more familiar with each other, and Luo Mu was not as nervous as other people when talking to her.

Ye Ci on the other end of the phone shook her head slightly. Through this small test, she could see that even after half a month, Luo Mu still had no intention of regretting his previous decision.

He sighed silently, and said kindly, "What do you want to talk to me about this time?"

Luo Mu said slowly: "I found a piece of Taijingzhu ore, and I would like to ask you, President, to help me give it to the two doctors to make it into a usable Taijingzhu."

Hearing this, Ye Ci's expression suddenly became serious.

Taijingzhu ore, this is a very rare thing.
Moreover, Luo Mu’s request was not to sell it to him for money but to make it into a usable Taijing Pearl.

This means that at least he hasn't completely given up on the path of becoming a trainer!

The plan instantly emerged in Yeci's mind. Yeci coughed twice, his face full of smiles: "Matchmaking is just a small matter, but Luo Mu, do you know how expensive it is to make the Taijingzhu?"

Luo Mu was confused. Wouldn't the Taijingzhu be an item that all new trainers could get in the future? How valuable could it be? Hiss, that's not right.

In an instant, Luo Mu suddenly remembered that the Taijingzhu was developed not long ago in the time he was in, and it was still a long way from the time to reduce costs and put the technology into mass production. Just like before the time travel.

Many high-performance black technologies have already been realized, but due to limitations in materials, costs, etc., they can only remain in the laboratory and cannot be rolled out on a large scale in the industrial chain.

The same situation is happening with Tai Jing Zhu now.

Oh no, he seems to have been sloppy!
Luo Mu touched his heart and asked hesitantly: "Can you please tell me how much it will cost to make the Taijing Pearl if I provide the raw materials?"

Ye Ci smiled and said, "Maybe you can raise the money by selling the land you just bought?"

"hiss"

Luo Mu took a deep breath. What kind of a plan is this? Even if he sold himself, he couldn't sell this piece of land!

Thinking that he didn't need to use this thing in a hurry, Luo Mu was about to give up making the Taijing Pearl when Ye Ci suddenly said, "But this problem is not unsolvable."

Luo Mu paused for a moment and involuntarily pricked up his ears to listen.

"I'll pay for the construction, but I have one condition."

"condition?"

"In exchange, you need to go to Orange Academy in Zhuotai City to serve as a combat instructor."

"Recently, the teacher took a long vacation because of the battle. As the chairman of the academy, I am worried about the selection of teachers. You came at the right time."

It can even be said that it was delivered to the door.

After Ye Ci finished speaking, Luo Mu, holding his phone, fell into deep thought.

Let him be a teacher?

Isn’t Ye Ci afraid that the future flowers in the Padia region will be corrupted by him?

And his dream is not to be a teacher!
Before Luo Mu had the time to refuse, Ye Ci seemed to have completely understood his thoughts and made a proposal that he could not refuse at all.

"There are only two combat classes per week, which won't take up too much of your time. Besides, Zhuotai City is very close to Pingdie Town, so it won't take much time to go back and forth on your Dragonite."

"Most importantly, I will cover all the expenses for making your Taijingzhu, and your salary as a combat teacher will be the same as that of a formal teacher. Are you satisfied with this proposal?"

Luo Mu found that he seemed to be completely manipulated by Ye Ci, and every one of her suggestions played right into his hands.

The working hours are short, the salary can be used to supplement the family income, and the manufacturing cost of Taijingzhu can be obtained for free, without affecting one's dream of becoming a farmer.

Does he have any reason to refuse?
No!

Luo Mu made a decision immediately: "Chairman, how long will it take for us to come to work?"
