Chapter 117: A Leisurely Day
Then, Naoki called out the fast dragon of the second electric attribute move in the ranch.
Kuailong's eyes brightly looked at the generator in front of him.
Did Naoki specially prepare this machine to help it exercise its electric attributes? Kuailong couldn't help but think.
It's like it constantly practises praying for rain in the fields and storms in the sky.
If it keeps using electric moves on this machine, then ......
Naoki on the side was explaining the use of the generator to Kuailong, but suddenly noticed that something was not quite right with Kuailong's eyes looking at the generator.
“…… What are you thinking? ”
At this moment, the fast dragon has completely used the generator as a tool to practice electric attribute moves.
It happily hugged Naoki.
"Whew!"
Naoki is so nice!
Before, he used watering and milk to help him practice praying for rain and storm, because he used praying for rain and storm every day, and he became more and more proficient in these two moves.
Now I'm starting to help it practice electric attribute moves again, and it will definitely work hard!
Naoki who was hugged was full of question marks.
It always feels like the fast dragon seems to have misunderstood something......
And Kuailong has already started to deliver electricity to the generators.
Because it was much larger than Xiaobu, it couldn't stand on the generator, so it put its fat claws on it.
Then, a zila burst of electricity from the dragon's fist and was absorbed by the generator.
Naoki turned his head to look and saw the energy storage bar on the generator rising.
1%… 3%… 4%… 12%… 23%… 37%…
In the end, it was fixed at 48%.
Looking at this scene, Xiao Bupao's eyes showed a look of adoration.
"Ba Mo!" It's amazing!
But the fast dragon has reached its limit.
The electricity on its body was drained, and there was no way to perform an electric attribute move.
In in-game terms, the PP value (number of moves used) is gone.
"Alright, you've done a great job!"
Naoki returned to the front room with Cloth Bag and Kuailong and took out two bottles of chilled honey lemonade from the refrigerator.
This is a drink he made before, and the effect is that after drinking it, it can eliminate the fatigue on his body and restore his energy.
Kuailong sat on the grass outside the door with the cloth pluck, and drank honey lemonade while leisurely blowing the wind again.
After setting up the two Pokémon, Naoki returned to the utility room, took out the tools and wood, and used the workbench there to make a stand for hops.
Summer is just around the corner, and the seeds of the summer crops he bought can start planting.
Crops like corn don't need scaffolds to grow, but hops do.
They start to grow along the scaffolds erected by the ranchers, because of the scaffolds, the sunlight hits each of its leaves, and then grows hops for brewing.
Of course, it's not enough to brew a bottle of beer with hops alone, you also need water, malt and yeast.
There is it in the Shimizu Ranch, and the yeast can be bought in town.
He also has a lot of malt stored in his pasture, which he planted himself in the first two months.
The spring wheat was not sold after the harvest, but was kept by him.
Finally, the hops and a series of ingredients are put into the barrels, stored in the cellar, and the brewing is completed after waiting for a month or so.
Naoki wondered what kind of magic would happen to the beer he brewed.
The only thing he regrets is that the process of winemaking has certain requirements for environment and temperature.
If it weren't for the fact that the barrels had to be stored in a cellar with a cooler temperature, he would have even wanted to spread the barrels all over the mountains.
There is no cellar in the ranch yet, but Naoki is not worried, and the hops and barley can be harvested first and brewed when there is a cellar.
At the ranch's current rate of profitability, he could save up to the 2 million needed to expand his home by mid-autumn at the latest.
He couldn't grow crops in the winter, so he could use that time to concentrate on winemaking.
Time passed minute by minute, and when the sun was shining, the brackets were made.
Naoki commanded Oldton and the Motolizard to move them forward, and the sun had fully risen.
Under the eaves, Kuailong and Bupao, who had drunk the honey lemonade, lay down on the spot, their upper bodies lying in the shade, and their lower bodies left outside in the sun.
At this time, the two Pokémon were sleeping soundly, and they looked very comfortable.
Naoki looked at the scene with a smile, and at this moment, the motorcycle lizard on the side suddenly screamed.
Naoki followed its gaze and saw that Ice Eevee had escaped from the ice cave at some point.
is staying in the sheepfold with the frost milk fairy, salt stone treasure, mini fu, and bada butterfly.
The three mounted goats seemed to have finished jumping and were lying lazily in the shade, munching on the grass balls while watching them.
And Mi Lingfu leaned against the mounted goat and dozed off.
Seeing this scene, Naoki couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Ice Eevee blended into the ranch so quickly, huh?
He saw that the Frost Milk Fairy was holding a frozen wildflower in his hand, and the five Salt Stone Treasures were looking at Ice Ebu pitifully, and in front of them, there were also a few small flowers.
Ice Eevee: "......"
Just when Naoki thought that it would not give the salt stone treasure ice flowers, Ice Ebu, who had been silent for a long time, blew a burst of freezing wind at the flowers.
The Salt Stone Treasures were overjoyed, and the Frost Milk Fairy happily sent the ice flower in his hand to Ice Ebu.
"Mama~"
Naoki didn't understand, but Soloton did.
The Frost Milk Fairy said to Ice Eevee, "Okay, if the ice gets up, it won't break!" Put it where you sleep so you can see it every day when you open your eyes~"
This is what Frost Milk Fairy learned from Naoki, who had seen Naoki put things in the refrigerator, saying that it would keep the food from going bad.
Hearing this, Bing Yibu was slightly stunned.
It didn't expect that Frost Milk Fairy asked it to help ice the flowers up in order to give it to it.
When the other five salt stone treasures saw the movements of the frost milk fairy, they also gave the flowers to Bing Yibu in the same way.
Mini Fu and Ba Da Butterfly also looked at this scene quite happily, and they were also hoping that Bing Yibu would accept it.
Although Naoki didn't know what was going on, he couldn't help but smile when he saw that they were getting along.
"Alright, we're going to get to work too!" Naoki said with a smile.
"Ahh
"Quack~"
The Moto Lizard and Soleton responded, and the three of them began to devote themselves to the process of building the scaffold.
Today is March 15th, and although there is still half a month before summer, some summer crops can also be planted.
So, Naoki will be busy today.
In addition to building a scaffolds for the beer peanuts to grow, he had to re-cultivate the land so that he could start planting the summer crops after the spring races.
Like pumpkin, corn, pineapple, whatever.
Pumpkin can be used to make pumpkin pie and pumpkin porridge.
Corn can be boiled directly, or it can be used to make popcorn and corn bisque, and it can also be used to cook ribs.
Pineapple can be used to make pineapple meat, and it can also be used to make pineapple rice.
When these crops grow, he can make more delicacies!
