Chapter 107: In the Days Without Horses (Three Watches)

It's a brand new day.

This morning, after finishing his work in the pasture, Naoki leisurely took a watering can and watered the flowers in the flower field.

Early in the morning, the hard-working three bees came out to work.

They fly around among the flowers, collecting nectar from the flowers.

Naoki greeted them warmly: "Good morning, three bees!" ”

"Hum~"

The three bees responded to Naoki's greeting with a melodious call, and then continued to work.

After watering, Naoki began to inspect his ranch and the home that he and the Pokémon had worked so hard to build.

In the farmland, the fast dragon is still practicing praying for rain.

In front of the chicken hut, the bunch of hens were grazing.

More than a month has passed, and the little yellow chickens hatched from the eggshell have grown up a lot, and they have begun to slowly learn from their mother's example to dig in the grass.

At this time, the chicks already knew that they could no longer eat when they were full, so they did not have to worry about being strutted to death, and Naoki replaced the feeding system in the chicken hut with ad libitum.

It's a lot more convenient.

Seeing him coming, Bu Pao, who was leisurely grazing on the grass, raised his paws and greeted him with cheers.

In the time being, this lost little cloth has been fully integrated into the life of the ranch.

And follow his example, go out early and return late to work, and every morning after breakfast, he will automatically come to the chicken hut to graze, and in the evening he will drive the hens back to the house, and then obediently return to the wooden house to sleep with him.

Naoki smiled and nodded at the cloth before moving on.

In front is the Pokémon hut, where three large milk pots live.

The grass seeds he sowed on the ground in front of the hut more than half a month ago have sprouted, and it is believed that it will not be long before they will grow into fertile and delicious grass.

The three large milk tanks had finished producing milk and were lying on the grass basking in the sun.

They're loving life here.

Because the food here is much better than the food in the previous ranch.

As a token of their gratitude to the farmers here, they work hard every day to produce milk.

- It's a waste to keep them anyway, it's better to squeeze them all out, and it can also make their bodies easier.

Further on, you will arrive at the salt house of Salt Stone.

However, recently, the weather has been getting better and better, and the Salt Stone Treasures are running around outside every day under the leadership of the Frost Milk Fairy.

This has also led to a significant reduction in the production of rock salt.

Naoki was also very helpless about this, but he didn't lock the salt stone treasures in the house, but let them play around.

Seeing that there was no one in the salt house, Naoki stepped forward and closed the door, and instead came to the territory of the mounted goats.

The three mounted goats have finished jumping today, and are now lazily lying on the grass and grazing.

And beside them, there was an extra figure that surprised Naoki.

Is that...... Mini Fu?

He couldn't help but step forward, looked at Mini Fu who was staying next to the mounted goat, and asked curiously, "Why are you here?" ”

Mi Lingfu shook her body slightly, and replied happily: "Fu~"

Because it's so comfortable!

At this moment, Naoki saw a green glimmer emanating from under the mount goat.

He understood in an instant.

Because of the mount goat, the grass attribute energy on this piece of grass is particularly rich and abundant.

This environment is simply a sacred place for plant and grass type Pokémon, so they will actively approach and stay here.

"Mount the goat, Mini Fu will be taken care of by you, I have to go to work." Naoki said.

The mount goats gladly took over the task of taking care of Mini-Fu.

Naoki went to the utility room at the back of the house, took out an axe and a saw, and began to make a wooden fence using the remaining wood and the improvised workbench inside.

He plans to hand-make a wooden fence to enclose the flower field and separate it from the farmland for ornamental purposes.

When the flowers wither in the summer, Naoki plans to plant a batch of sunflower seeds there and open up a beautiful field of sunflowers.

This delicate handiwork was of little help, as it was so strong that it would break the wood if it was not careful.

Therefore, Naoki had to do it himself, and he was busy until the afternoon, and he was able to complete it.

A wooden fence was erected around the flower field, and a sign with flowers painted on it was hung at the entrance, and a complete garden was completed.

Naoki clapped his hands, and found that his hands had been ground into several calluses at some point.

But he didn't care.

Maybe for a farmer, it's a badge of honor for hard work, right?

Patting the ash on his hands, Naoki touched the heads of the old Leton and the motorcycle lizard next to him, and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?" ”

"Ahh

"Quack!"

The two Pokémon replied in unison.

However, Naoki didn't understand any of them, and said with a haha, "Then let's have a sandwich!" ”

Therefore, Leton, motorcycle lizard: "......"

After all, Naoki still took their favorite steak from the fridge and prepared to make a schnitzel.

And just then, the videophone behind him rang.

Naoki raised an eyebrow, a look of surprise on his face.

Who could be calling him at this time?

He washed his hands and went over to answer them, and Mayor Thomas's voice came from the phone.

"Good evening, Naoki!"

"Good evening, Mayor Thomas! Do you have anything to do with me today? ”

"Haha, it's about the horse race at the end of March, because you have a phone installed there, so I didn't send a letter and called you directly."

"The town will hold a spring horse race on the 25th of this month, and anyone who has a Pokémon can come and participate, and there will be a lot of trainers passing by!"

"It's just that you don't seem to have started raising Pokémon yet, so you can't participate."

"But you can also come and watch the race, buy a horse race ticket for your favorite player at the event, and if he wins the championship, you can also exchange the horse race ticket for all kinds of items!"

Horse racing tickets? Isn't this betting on horses?

But when he heard that he could exchange all kinds of props, Naoki still moved in his heart and asked, "Props?" ”

Mayor Thomas replied, "Since most of the people who come to participate in the competition are passing trainers, the town has prepared a lot of things that trainers can use, such as various evolution stones, equipment to help Pokémon exercise, magical items to carry for Pokémon, and so on. ”

Evolution Stone......

Naoki soon thought of a goal in his life - to collect all the attributes of Eevee.

In addition to the fairy Eevee, the sun Eevee, and the moon Eevee, a total of five evolution stones are needed to collect other attributes.

They are fire, water, thunder, leaves, and ice.

There is only one water stone by his side now, which the baby bear picked up and sent to him before.

I don't have Ibrahim around yet, but it's always a good idea to be prepared.

Hanging up the phone, Naoki began to think about his current situation.

There are 10 days left until the start of the horse race.

According to Mayor Thomas, each person can only buy a certain number of horse race tickets.

These tickets can be used to bet on the runners you support to get more tickets, which can then be redeemed for items.

In addition to this, you can also participate in the contest yourself, and the winner will be rewarded with a free selection of an item in addition to the championship trophy.

If you're confident enough, you can also buy a horse racing ticket to bet on yourself.

So the question is, will he be able to meet a Pokémon in these ten days?

Even if he does, will he be able to breed that Pokémon enough to win the championship?

Well, that's a problem.
