Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

Back at the breeding house, Gengar and the others had just unloaded their baskets and poured out the bamboo shoots and fresh mushrooms when Momonini ran towards him with a piece of paper in hand.

"Nini, Monini~"

"What's wrong, Monini?"

Fang Yan took the paper from Monini, which had two phone numbers on it and a note at the end.

Judging from the handwriting that says "want to buy a Pokémon egg," it's probably because when Fangyan wasn't at the breeding center, a guest came and Mominini helped entertain him. After learning that the guest wanted to buy a Pokémon egg, Mominini took out a piece of paper to write it down and would deal with it when Mominini returned.

"Our Monini is really too smart."

Fang Yan praised Monini, saying that Monini had already learned how to entertain guests on her behalf.

"Nini, Nini."

Monini squinted, then pointed to her older sister beside her, indicating that Fang Yan's idea came from Lily Root Doll.

"Lily root doll is also great, you two are both wonderful."

"Laji~"

She gave them both a light flick on the forehead, then asked Monini to help prepare lunch in the kitchen, while she called the guests back to tell them they could come over in the afternoon to buy Pokémon eggs.

Monini nodded and then ran towards the kitchen.

Then she came back, staggering out with ice cream and soda in her hands.

Fang Yan hung up the phone, took the phone, and handed it to Cynthia and Gengar.

After handing them the ice cream and soda, Monini ran back to the kitchen.

Following closely behind was the lily root doll.

"Looks like we need to find Monini an assistant."

Fang Yan looked at Mo Nini, whose face was practically steaming from running, and thought to himself.

He then returned to the warehouse, found two small knives, and as he passed the counter, he noticed that the Lily Root Doll was sitting on the counter, facing the door of the nursery.

"Oh, Lily Root Doll, are you entertaining my guests?"

"Laji~"

The lily root doll looked at Fang Yan, gave a sweet call, and nodded.

"Thank you, our lily root doll is so cute."

Fang Yan felt a warmth in her heart, then reached out and brushed aside the trimmed leaves on its head, saying, "I'll cook something delicious for you tonight."

"Laji~"

Back in the backyard, Erli went back to the front and looked at the lily root doll, while he moved a small stool to the backyard, put on gloves, and began to peel bamboo shoots.

"Kou Jie?"

Can't we eat it now?

Gengar held a soda in one hand, took a sip through the straw, and then stretched out its other hand to bring the soda straw in its other hand to Fangyan's mouth.

Suck.

Fang Yan took a big sip, then looked at Gengar and explained, "We have to peel it first, and then process it to make it even more delicious."

Cynthia sat on a swing not far away, with Garchomp and Lucario standing behind her, pushing the swing for her.

After finishing her ice cream, Cynthia called out, "Gengar, we're going to train, do you want to come?"

"Kou Jie—"

coming.

After finishing his soda, Gengar looked at the glass of Fangyan's in his hand, thought for a moment, opened his mouth to share a sip with Fangyan, then placed the two empty glasses at Fangyan's feet and rushed towards Cynthia with Dali.

Looking at the two cups at his feet and Gengar's departing figure, Fang Yan sighed helplessly and continued processing the bamboo shoots in his hands.

After processing the bamboo shoots and finishing the lunch prepared by Monini, Fang Yan brought out a long-abandoned water vat and placed it next to the stove that had been built first. He gestured for a moment, then drilled a few holes in the bottom, turning it into a facility similar to an earthenware pot.

Later, I'll make bamboo shoot rice in bamboo tubes, hook them up and put them in to roast.

After the renovation was completed, Fang Yan heard the voice of the lily root doll and returned to the front desk.

They were customers who came in the morning to buy Pokémon eggs, and Fang Yan introduced them to some Pokémon eggs based on their needs.

Finally, I sold a Nerubian Pokémon egg and a Wurmple egg.

As they were leaving, Fang Yan noticed that there were more trainers passing by that spot that day.

"Boss, I'm here."

Looking around, one could see the bespectacled man who was temporarily housing the tortoises here.

"I've come to pick up the Torterra and the others. I'm going to give them some special training before they go to the League Conference."

The bespectacled man arrived at the entrance of the breeding house and noticed some additional services listed on the wooden board at the door.

For example, there's herbal tea, and instruction on techniques.

It looks like the nursery has been fully restored.

The bespectacled man thought to himself.

"Hold on."

Fang Yan welcomed the bespectacled man into the nursery, asked Monini to come and help take care of him, and then picked up the lily root doll and walked to the backyard.

"Lily Root Doll, it's time to say goodbye to the Earth Tortoise."

Fang Yan gently stroked the top of the lily root doll's head with his palm.

"Laji~"

The lily root doll swayed in his arms to indicate that she was alright.

Because it knew that the earth tortoise had its own family and its own things to do, just like it had been, it knew that it would leave sooner or later.

"It's okay, we'll welcome more family and friends in the future."

Hearing the comforting words in the dialect, Lily Root Doll remained silent.

It has found its most precious family.

After letting Lilligant say goodbye to Torterra and the others, Fang Yan recalled them into their Poké Balls and handed them to the bespectacled man.

After settling the fees, it was found that the foster care was for fifteen days, at a rate of 10,000 Alliance Coins per day, and in the end, the fee was 150,000 Alliance Coins.

Afterwards, he asked why there were so many trainers recently, and the answer he received was that the League Tournament was about to begin, and some were going home to rest and recuperate before participating in the League Tournament in their best condition, while others were going home to adjust their teams before starting the next round of gym challenges.

"Goodbye, boss."

Goodbye, and welcome back next time.

Fang Yan looked down at the lily root doll in her arms and said, "Let's go, I'll make you something delicious."

"Laji~"

Fang Yan hung up the "Closed" sign, then carried the Lilyroot plushie back to the backyard and found Gengar sticking its head into the treated water tank, with only its short legs sticking out and darting around.

He walked over and tugged at its tail, then handed the lily root doll to Cynthia, who was reaching out her hand, and began preparing dinner for the evening.

"Everyone, let's have a delicious bamboo shoot feast tonight!"

"Goblin!"

"Cough~"

"Kah!"

……

Fang Yan looked at all the Pokémon in the backyard and smiled silently.

Before I knew it, I had already built a good relationship with Cynthia's Pokémon.

Then he asked Garchomp to cut the bamboo he brought back into sections and then split them in half.

Seeing Fang Yan blink as he handed the bamboo to him, Garchomp extended its scissors, placed them against Fang Yan's neck, and then slowly slid them down, processing the bamboo to meet Fang Yan's needs.

Throughout the process, Fang Yan broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly cleaned the inside of the bamboo, then put in the washed rice and bamboo shoots, added some seasonings, tightly wrapped it with wire, hung it with an iron hook, and put it into the heated earthenware pot.

Next, they began preparing other dishes made from bamboo shoots.

As dishes such as stir-fried bamboo shoots with meat and fresh mushroom and bamboo shoot soup were served one after another, the aroma from the earthenware pot wafted out.

Fang Yan used clips to take them out, and then opened them one by one.

The beautifully colored bamboo shoot rice, accompanied by the fresh aroma of bamboo, is now ready to be served.

Seeing that they were staring intently at the food on the table without blinking, Fang Yan laughed and then raised the soda in his hand.

"Everyone, let's eat!"

"I'm starting!"

"口桀—(slurred and unclear)"

"Kah!"

"Cough."

……

"Everyone, look up and give a thumbs up!"
