In the evening, Zach came to the ranch to collect the goods.

Naoki brought out the goat's milk and rock salt, as well as a few small mushrooms that grew in the cave.

"Wow! Today's harvest is very rich! Zach's eyes widened, "Looks like your ranch is finally back on track." ”

Naoki hooked the corners of his mouth, he looked at the motorcycle lizard and Gu Leton not far away, and said with emotion: "Yes, this is thanks to everyone's joint efforts!" ”

"That's how it should be!" Zach sighed: "Alas, few young people nowadays are willing to stay in the countryside to run ranches and become farmers. ”

Unlike before, it is now fashionable to be a trainer.

Almost every child wants to claim their own Pokémon and travel with them around the world, play tournaments, and become the strongest Pokémon trainer.

"The farms and ranches in the neighborhood are run by some older people, just you, a young man." Zach Road.

Naoki nodded thoughtfully.

If you count according to the timeline of the anime, this time node is not long after Ash went out.

Although the trainer profession has not yet reached the peak of its development in "Pokémon Journey", it has gradually become popular all over the world.

"Okay, a total of five catties of rock salt, six liters of goat's milk, six small mushrooms, well, a total of 32,300 alliance coins."

Zach handed over the money, then returned to the van and said goodbye to Naoki: "I'm leaving, and I'll have to work overtime to get these goods to the Yanqin market." ”

Zach left.

Naoki returned to the hut and took out his ledger to record today's income and expenses.

Spring 198, January 31.

Income: +16800 rock salt, +13000 goat's milk, +2500 small mushrooms

Expenditure: Fruit - 600, Food - 5000, Fertilizer - 10000

Remaining funds: 33680

"Thirty-three thousand ......" looked at the numbers on the ledger, and Naoki fell into deep thought.

He had specifically asked Kerry before.

The price of wanting to build a house with a kitchen, bathroom, living room, dining room, study, bedroom, cellar is very exaggerated.

Including furniture, this set may not be less than 15 million.

Kerry showed him the blueprints, it was a two-story villa, which was fully equipped, and Naoki was very satisfied, but the price was too expensive, and it was not at all what he could afford now.

Chicken huts, Pokémon huts and the like are all small fights, and this kind of villa is the big one.

Alas, there is still a long way to go!

Luckily, Kerry also provided an addition to a regular house, which he could use for a temporary transition.

Naoki took a deep breath and set the villa as the ultimate goal in his mind.

Tomorrow, the pace of time will officially enter February, and the crops in the fields can also start to be harvested one after another.

Life is starting to get busy again.

Naoki lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, after breakfast, Naoki gave the goat's milk to the dragon and asked him to deliver it to Mrs. Dantès.

Seeing the dragon go away, Naoki also began to carry out his daily work.

At this time, a man suddenly rode in on a motorcycle outside the ranch.

It was a young man in a blue overalls with a blue cap and a brown fanny pack on his shoulder.

The man and the motorcycle lizard stayed not far away, looked at Naoki, and greeted politely, "Hello, may I ask, is this Naoki Ranch?" ”

"Yes." Naoki was a little surprised: "Are you?" ”

The young man jumped off the motorcycle, he looked very sunny, and when he laughed, he showed two small tiger teeth.

The man introduced himself: "Hello, Mr. Naoki, my name is Aiwen, I am the mailman in the town, I am responsible for sending letters and delivering things, here is a letter of yours, please sign for it?" ”

"Letter?" Naoki was slightly stunned.

Who will send him a letter? He didn't know a few people in this world, and the original owner didn't have any concerns or friends.

With that in mind, Naoki reached out and took the letter.

Unwrapping the envelope and pulling the letter out of it, Naoki looked down.

[Naoki Ranch:

Hello, Naoki! I heard Mayor Thomas say you came over and inherited this ranch, and I'm glad to hear that!

Spring is here, and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, so we will be holding a cherry blossom drinking party at the cherry orchard on February 7th.

At that time, people from the town, trainers, and farmers from nearby farms gather here to enjoy cherry sake made last year while enjoying the flowers, exchanging sourcing from their respective farms, and setting up stalls to sell to the attendees.

You can also bring crops and specialties from your pasture, or the delicacies you make with them, to sell them.

Looking forward to seeing you here.

- by Eriff Cherry Orchard]

Naoki raised an eyebrow, and the cherry blossom wine party ...... Are there local festivals?

Sounds pretty interesting.

He nodded and said to Aven, "Thank you very much, I see." ”

The mailman's little brother Ai Wen nodded: "Okay, then I'll go first, see you later!" ”

With that, he mounted on the back of the motorcycle lizard and ran away.

"Sure enough, the motorcycle lizard is a means of transportation here!" Naoki couldn't help but think.

After a moment, he shook his head with a smile and continued to work on the ranch.

And at the same time, the town of Yanqin, the blue sea street.

The dragon arrived at No. 308 as usual, and tapped lightly on the door with his big fat paws.

Soon, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, and Mrs. Dantès opened the door and saw that it was the dragon, with a kind and kind smile on her face.

"It's a fast dragon!"

"Whew~"

Kuailong handed the goat's milk out.

Mrs. Dantès stretched out her hand to take it, and after paying the money, she said to Kualong, "Please wait a moment, I have something I would like you to help bring to Naoki." ”

"Huh?" Kuailong was a little puzzled.

Mrs. Dantès turned around, took a bag and a letter from the room, handed them to the dragon, and said with a smile:

"This is a small cookie I made myself, take it home and give it to Naoki to taste!"

"Whew!"

Kuailong nodded obediently, took the letter and biscuits, turned around and flew back to the ranch.

Mrs. Dantès watched its figure disappear, then turned back to the room, and saw her husband, who looked much better, with an expression that had never been more relaxed: "How are you feeling today?" ”

The other party said: "I feel much better, and the strength in my body has come back a little." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Dantès breathed a sigh of relief: "This is thanks to Naoki's goat's milk!" ”

————

"Mrs. Dantès gave it to me?"

In the pasture, looking at the small biscuits and a letter handed over by the fast dragon, Naoki was a little surprised.

"Whew!" Kuailong nodded happily.

Naoki reached out and took it, opening the letter that Mrs. Dantès had written.

The letter said that her husband's health was much better, and he was very grateful for Naoki's goat's milk, and sent some small biscuits, and wished Naoki good health and smooth work on the farm.
