Chapter 13: Money
The Stone of Leaves, a necessary thing for the evolution of the "Coconut Egg Tree".
This kind of evolution stone is generally priceless and marketable......
Even if the technology and transportation in this world are very developed, and various Pokémon-related industries are very perfect.
However, the evolution stone is still in a state of "buyers are not easy to find sellers" and "sellers are not easy to find buyers" all year round!
First, because the production of evolution stones is often not large, and there are not many Pokémon that need evolution stones; Second, there is no artificial production, or stable collection method, which depends on luck; Third, it is the evolution stone of this world, which has a strong timeliness, and the farther away from the place of origin, the more likely it is to fail.
Guandu is the area with the largest production and trading volume of leaf stones - "Overlord Flower" and "Great Flower Eater", two common Kanto Pokémon in the Tokiwa Forest, all need the Leaf Stone to evolve, and at the same time, Kanto also has the Tokiwa Forest, a place rich in grass energy......
However, because the location of the leaf stone formation is not fixed, and it will turn back into an ordinary stone a few days after it is formed, it is difficult to form an industry.
As a result, there is often no stable market for "evolution stones", and they are only occasionally traded in some places where they are often produced...... For example, Maple Leaf Town!
"Do you have any misunderstanding about the price of the Leaf Stone? Although the price of the Evolution Stone fluctuates greatly, if a deal is concluded, the price generally fluctuates between four or five hundred thousand...... Even sometimes if it is too sought-after, it can exceed a million! Xiaoxia emphasized.
In terms of the price of this world, the most basic Pokémon wound medicine is about 300 yuan in regular stores, about 200 yuan for ordinary Poké Balls, and about 500 yuan for a luxury set meal in a fast food restaurant......
In terms of income, white-collar workers in the six major cities are about 300,000 yuan a month, and in other small towns and towns, it is normal for ordinary people to pay more than 100,000 yuan a month.
But if there is a skill, such as a construction worker with a "construction master", a housekeeper with "Lotom", and a programmer who can fix bugs......
The income is definitely several times higher than that of peers!
In contrast, the "Leaf Stone" is by no means cheap, but it is only a pain - a few months' salary, after all, this thing has a limited validity period, and the seller also has to consider that being too greedy may "draw water from a bamboo basket".
"Didn't you say I'm a pharmacist? As long as it's a normal price, I should be able to ...... it for half a month," Eminem said seriously
"No, no, no, even if you are a pharmacist, if you only work odd jobs for half a month, you are still too optimistic...... Are you a Level 3 or Level 2 pharmacist? Xiaoxia denied again and again.
"Level 1." Eminem said honestly.
"How can it be ......" Xiaoxia first questioned in surprise, and then asked rhetorically: "Really?" ”
If it weren't for seeing Eminem's usual seriousness in the past two days, she would have thought Eminem was joking!
"Anyway, the certificate is first-class." Eminem shrugged.
"You mean...... False testimony? Xiaoxia's three views have been impacted, and in her impression, the league's professional grade certificate is still very authoritative.
"No, I mean, the level should be expert." Eminem said.
"Shhhh You're so good, why don't you take the expert exam? Xiaoxia felt that this sentence must be a joke.
"I signed up, and there are still more than three months." Eminem said as a matter of course.
Xiaoxia: ......
People who usually look serious look like this, so Xiaoxia doesn't know if what he says is true or not, but ...... It should be true that there is a first-class pharmacist qualification!
"It is said that ...... A first-class pharmacist, can easily earn millions a month? Xiaoxia looked like a little money obsessed.
"It's not that exaggerated, being directly hired by those big conglomerates, maybe it can be achieved, but now I can only buy raw materials from the Guradu store, and then process them into potions, and then recycle them to the Guladu store to earn a difference."
The Gullado Group has a high market share in various resource commodities.
Eminem estimates that if he does it himself, from 8 to 5 in the morning and a month off, he will still be able to earn millions of dollars - after all, he has a first-class pharmacist certification, and the Gula chain store will accept it...... However, the profit is definitely smaller.
If it is a first-level pharmacist who sits on the ground and opens a store, there is a more stable and affordable purchase channel, and then hire one or two people to open a store and sell it by himself, and it is not a problem to increase his income by one or two.
If you give up your "freedom" and accept employment from a large conglomerate, you will actually earn more if you give up your "freedom" and accept employment from a large conglomerate.
However, for Eminem who is traveling, he only has to "do odd jobs" and be exploited by major chain Pokémon stores.
"That's right, it's said that the recycling price at the Gula store is very low." Xiaoxia also denounced the Gulado Group.
"After all, they mainly produce on their own, and the acquisition is just incidental...... I guess I would prefer the pharmacist to 'sell himself' to them, right? Eminem obviously has no idea of "selling himself".
Of course, this is a "first-class pharmacist" - although Eminem is confident that he has an expert-level level, he has not yet been certified, and it is inconvenient for expert-level pharmacists to find a channel to make a move.
Expert pharmacists can not only use tree fruits to configure potions for battles, but each expert often has their own special skills and skills.
What's more, there are not a thousand first-level pharmacists in the entire quartz alliance, but also hundreds of them, and there are only more than twenty experts at the expert level!
Any consultant named is not comparable to a first-class pharmacist, which can be called a qualitative leap.
……
After Eminem and Kasumi arrive in Maple Town, they first arrive at the Pokémon Center.
Although it's a small town, this Pokémon can't be busy with three or two people and a Joey at the front desk.
Not only is it not small, but it also has four floors, and the upper three floors are guest rooms for trainers to stay.
Joey was nowhere to be seen at the front desk......
This is the first time Eminem has opened a room, and with the idea of "there is no shame if you don't understand", Eminem took the initiative to consult Xiaoxia.
Sure enough, Xiaoxia immediately proudly showed Eminem what a "veteran" was, and skillfully demonstrated the process of using the Pokémon Illustrated Book to be a newcomer and open a house for free - although she had only just started traveling for less than three months!
"Your room is number 208, get your room card." The staff at the front desk handed over the key card.
Eminem took it and asked by the way, "Is there a leaf stone for sale in the town recently?" ”
"Sorry, I'm not a trainer, I don't know." The young lady at the front desk only gave a helpless smile.
But at this moment, there was a trainer who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old in the back, and took the initiative to speak: "If you want Ye Zhishi, you can go and ask Old Man Ye to try, he seems to have obtained a piece recently, as long as you can make him look good, I will give it to you...... It's just that he has a weird temper. ”
"Ask Old Man Ye?" Eminem was stunned when he heard this, this name has a feeling that it can hit ten at a time.
"Ask Ye?" Xiaoxia exclaimed, and when she saw Eminem looking over, she immediately pretended not to know anything: "Eh...... What a strange name, hehehehe......"
"Well, it's in a treehouse on the east side of town...... After exiting from the east exit, the tree stands out. The young trainer told Eminem where the other was.
Eminem left his luggage in his room, washed up again, and headed to the east side of the town.
What he didn't expect was that Xiaoxia also tried her best to follow - thinking of her reaction just now, it seemed to ...... She knew something about asking Old Man Ye before?
But seeing that she didn't want to say it, Eminem didn't ask much.
Since she didn't even know that Old Man Ye was in Maple Leaf Town, and she was still surprised, she should have only heard of it before......
