My Pokémon Story of Seasons

On the meadow, the big milk tank lay lazily on the grass, basking in the sun.

The fence over the meadow creates an optical illusion, making it impossible to touch the boundary no matter how you roll it.

While rolling around might prevent damaging the fence and allow for more freedom, it also seems to have taken away some of the fun.

So the big milk tank lay flat, occasionally turning over to chew on a bite of fresh, fertile hay.

Ah, life is so comfortable.

"Miru~"

Suddenly, a series of pattering footsteps came from afar.

"We're here." Tong Hua patted Tuotuo's head, and the latter immediately stopped.

"There just happens to be an old barn here. If we clean it up, it should be big enough to accommodate you."

"Worm~"

Tuotuo the worm recalled that the last time it came to Fairy Tale Ranch, it slept in the field covered with mud that night.

Now that I've officially become a part of this family, I naturally can't make do anymore.

"Everyone, go and help gather some dry grass. I'll go get some planks to repair this place."

As soon as Tong Hua finished speaking, the six Pokémon, including Worm, responded in unison and scattered to find suitable hay.

Tong Hua glanced at the big milk tank lying asleep beside her and chuckled to herself.

"Now the big milk tank has a neighbor."

I shouldn't be so lonely anymore.

Tong Hua took out wood carving tools and began processing the logs he had prepared earlier.

It rained all day yesterday, but fortunately the logs were still relatively dry and in good condition.

Tong Hua picked up a handsaw, instantly switching his profession to that of a wood carver, and began processing the log.

After a while, the grass-fed tortoise and the foam squirrel returned, each carrying a pile of hay. Tong Hua had also finished processing the hay and began repairing the barn.

……

Woodcarver: Level 10

[Professional Skills: Manufacturing, Processing, High-Speed ​​Manufacturing]

It wasn't until 5 p.m. that Tong Hua finished repairing the granary and checked his job panel. He found that his carpenter level had risen to level 10.

And like the chef, he unlocked the high-speed cooking skill.

As for the renovated barn, perhaps because it used the same raw materials, it has the same optical illusion effect as the Pokémon House.

"That's good, at least we don't have to worry about not having enough space."

As Tong Hua thought about it, he and the Pokémon spread the collected hay in the barn to serve as a mattress for the worm.

"Worm!"

After laying it out, Tuotuo worm lay down on it to try it out. Its body curled up, turning into a mosquito coil shape, which fit comfortably on the hay mattress.

The worm was chirping happily, which attracted its friends, such as the grass turtle and the foam squirrel, to pounce on the mattress.

"Game!"

The sun-dried hay exuded a warm scent, and several Pokémon rolled and frolicked in the haystack.

The grass-fed tortoise used its vine whip to pick up a bundle of hay and playfully sprinkled it on the foam squirrel. The foam squirrel wasn't to be outdone; it swept its bushy tail, sending up a shower of hay.

"Ah-ma!" Sweet Bamboo hopped around in the haystack, its leaves swirling above its head, sending the hay flying everywhere. Two shurabi chased the scattered hay through the air, occasionally letting out a crisp laugh.

The big milk tank strolled over slowly, curiously peering into the barn. Seeing the lively scene inside, its round eyes immediately lit up.

"Miloo~" The big milk pot gently nudged Tong Hua's back with its nose.

"You're awake?" Tong Hua smiled and made way for her. "Go on, join everyone."

The big milk tanker barked happily and pounced onto the haystack, lying down completely. The soft hay immediately sank into a large crater, comfortably enveloping the big milk tanker.

The seven Pokémon were playing happily together. Tong Hua leaned against the door, watching this heartwarming scene, and murmured to himself.

"It's a real shame that I don't have anything to record the scene. But, these beautiful moments that only exist in my memory, uniquely mine... thinking about it that way, it's not so bad."

As the sun gradually set in the west, Tong Hua watched the Pokémon frolicking in the barn, and a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.

Before long, everyone had had enough fun. Tong Hua wrote the five characters "Tuo Tuo Yin's Home" in paint on the barn's signboard.

"Welcome again to Fairy Tale Ranch, Tuotuo. From now on, we're family."

The worm was very happy and stretched out several body hairs to turn into arms, shaking hands with everyone present.

"Without further ado, taking advantage of the new members joining us, I'd like to share with you our ranch's next development plan."

Tong Hua clapped his hands, and the Pokémon present immediately quieted down, listening carefully to what he had to say.

"As you all know, our ranch was originally abandoned, so many of the basic facilities are incomplete. Therefore, in the next few days, I will focus on renovating the ranch's roads and some important facilities."

I hope everyone can lend me a hand on this. Especially Tuo Tuo and the Grass Turtle, you two are both very strong, and Tuo Tuo, your body is perfect for leveling roads.

"Worm!" "Game!" The two Pokémon whose names were called raised their hands at the same time, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"Well, regarding the road repairs, we've decided to use stone slabs for paving. I'll go look for them tomorrow. As for the facility renovations, the first thing we'll do is naturally demolish the remaining old huts and rebuild them according to Mr. Acorn's design."

I will be primarily responsible for this aspect, as it is a preparation for bringing in more friends to the ranch in the future.

"Miroo~" When it came to renovating the Pokémon House and bringing in more friends, Miltank was the first to raise his hand in agreement.

When there are more Pokémon in the grasslands, she wants to be the leader!

"Then, the second point concerns the output of our ranch. Currently, the big milk tanker is working the hardest, producing a large amount of fresh milk every day," Tong Hua said, gently patting the big milk tanker's round head.

"But!" Tong Hua felt several gazes and quickly changed the subject, "The three of you who are in charge of taking care of the fields—the grass-fed turtle, the foam squirrel, and the sweet bamboo—are also great!"

And sometimes, rabbis, your help is also considerable.

Seeing that all the Pokémon that were mentioned nodded in agreement, Tong Hua secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

I almost ended up in a chaotic situation again...

"However, we can't be too complacent. Today, I'm setting a goal for everyone: to save up 2000 million Alliance Coins before summer arrives, so we can introduce a water filtration and power generation system to our Tonghua Ranch, and build everyone a modern new home with air conditioning and a professional kitchen!"

As soon as Tong Hua finished speaking, the entire barn fell silent. Apart from Turtwig and Foam Squirrel, the other Pokémon all looked on in confusion; they had absolutely no concept of the number 2000 million.

"Wow...Wow?" The hairy worm gestured a large question mark with its arm.

"Uh... in short, it's about increasing the ranch's income."

So the first thing that came to mind was to expand the farmland. Luckily, we still had some of the seeds the village chief had given us. Let's all work together to cultivate a little more land before the sun sets!

Currently, the half-acre plot in Fairy Tale Ranch is located behind the wooden house and between the orchard. If they want to expand the area further, they can only develop horizontally and cultivate land on the other side of the irrigation ditch.

In any case, Tong Hua, as the ranch owner, had already set goals and plans, so everyone naturally followed suit and got to work.

When it comes to cultivating land, the worm is naturally the best at it.

It burrowed into the soil, opened its large mouth and swallowed all the red soil underneath, then moved forward quickly, turning over the furrows in the fields.

After it, Tong Hua and the other Pokémon tidied up the vegetable patch.

Tong Hua planted seeds of six different crops: parsnip, cauliflower, rhubarb, garlic, mung beans, and strawberries.

Everyone worked until sunset before finally finishing cultivating the fields.

Including the original half-acre of land, the total arable land area of ​​Fairy Tale Ranch has now reached three acres.

Doubling the area means that the time spent watering each day also needs to be doubled, but this is all labor that must be put in in order to increase income.

Moreover, this is something we should only start worrying about from tomorrow.

As for now, let's have dinner first.
