Pokémon: Starting with a Pokémon Ranch.

Chapter 134 New Home Planning

"Speaking of which, a lot has happened these past few months..."

"First there was the giant Tyranitar event at Mt. Silver, and then the Hoenn League's super-large domain descended. We didn't feel anything in this rural town, but in the big cities, it was like a tsunami."

After handing the newspaper to Su Yu, the postman said this.

"Really?" Su Yu didn't know much about this, and naturally didn't know the situation in the big cities.

Seeing that Su Yu was interested in this matter, the postman stayed and chatted with Su Yu for a while. When he realized that time was running out, he rode away on his Duduli.

After the postman left, Su Yu looked at the newspaper in his hand again.

Daigo... I wonder where he'll go first after arriving in Donghuang?

However, that was beyond Su Yu's consideration.

After placing the newspaper on the living room table, Su Yu carried a bag of fertilizer from the warehouse and headed towards the orchard.

To facilitate fertilization and prevent the fertilizer used for the walking grass from mixing with the fertilizer used for the fruit trees, Su Yu marked out a ring of land around the perimeter of the orchard for the walking grass to rest.

Carrying the fertilizer to the edge of the orchard, Su Yu scattered the entire bag of fertilizer evenly among the thirty-odd walking grasses.

After several days of nutritional supplementation with specially made fertilizer, the Oddish and the others, whose stunted growth was caused by being chased around by the Pokémon in the forest, have recovered.

In addition, some of the more talented Oddish have already learned the Poison Powder move and can use it skillfully.

Therefore, Su Yu's special fertilizer has been continuously supplied these past few days. This fertilizer comes from a breeder in town who is an expert in cultivating Oddish, and its continued use has great benefits for the Oddish.

As Su Yu was spreading fertilizer, his phone suddenly rang in his pocket. Su Yu wiped his hands on his clothes and took out his phone to check the sound.

The message was actually sent by Mela. It seemed that their project was going to be completed today, so they were preparing to go back to the ranch to take a look.

"So fast?" Su Yu glanced at the time; it was actually a few days ahead of the previously estimated one-month construction period. It seemed that Mei La and the others were making good progress.

As for the money obtained after the project was completed, Su Yu let Meila keep it for herself. His ranch was still operating normally, so there was no need to hand over the money to him.

"In that case, we can start preparing for the new house."

Now that Meila has some free time, and Su Yu has a lot more money than he did a month ago, he didn't even have enough to build a new house back then.

However, Su Yu's savings have now reached a staggering million Alliance Coins, more than enough to build a large new home.

……

……

When Mela returned to the ranch.

Looking at the ever-growing Sky Tree, Mela couldn't help but swallow hard and asked Su Yu:

"Boss, what have you been up to in the less than a month I've been gone...?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yu touched his nose sheepishly and chuckled:

"Well... it's nothing, it's just that I planted a tree with my little sheep mount."

Upon hearing this, Mela recalled the rather exaggerated three little goat mounts and nodded in understanding.

"Hmm...that's not surprising then."

"By the way, you just messaged me saying you're planning to build a new house?"

"Yes, as you can see, there are more and more Pokémon in the ranch now. The old hut is no longer enough for daily use."

"How's it going? Can we start work?" Su Yu asked curiously.

"Of course, since it's your request, boss, we'll start preparing right away."

"But where do you plan to build your new home?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yu pointed to a piece of land not far from the hut and replied:

"Let's just stay there. I don't want to be too far from the old cabin. This distance is just right."

Upon hearing this, Mela immediately began surveying the area Su Yu had indicated. Since it was a large house to be built, the first thing to do was to finalize the design plans.

Therefore, after working with the superhumans for a while, Meira approached Su Yu with a design drawing.

In this design, Su Yu's requirements for a cold storage room, swimming pool, basement, and four-story villa were all fulfilled. Even on the rooftop, Meila designed a recreational area for children to play on.

There's even a slide that takes you directly down from the roof to the ground.

The living room on the second floor is still fully transparent and has been lit by natural light. Almost all the surrounding walls have been replaced with reflective glass, and the amount of light can be adjusted by using curtains.

"How come we forgot the gym? It has to be on the first floor. Ideally, it should also have a door that leads to the outside. My Squirtle and I use it regularly."

"Besides, your master bedroom is too small. My Pokémon usually sleep with me, and they don't like having their own rooms. So, these extra rooms... should be repurposed."

"And this garage is completely unnecessary. I have Growlithe and Tropius, I don't need a car at all when I go out, just cross it out."

After glancing at the design drawings, Su Yu offered some suggestions.

Upon hearing this, Mela noted it all down, preparing to make further modifications later.

As for the other parts, Su Yu was quite satisfied; Meila's design skills were quite good.

At this moment, Meila asked:

"Are the building materials used still high-grade fire-resistant materials?"

"Yes... don't skimp on this money."

Although the ranch already had Squirtle that could put out fires, Su Yu still felt it wasn't reliable enough and that fireproof materials should be used.

"Okay... but if we go by your exact requirements, the budget for this house might be quite high. This includes the price of the cold storage, because you need a large cold storage unit, and we'll also need to purchase the corresponding refrigeration equipment."

This cold storage is where Su Yujian stores vegetables, grains, and hay from the ranch. Normally, these vegetables and hay don't keep for long after being harvested from the fields.

If there is a cold storage facility, these crops can be stored for a long time, which is quite convenient.

Because there would be a lot of things to store, Su Yu arranged it like a professional cold storage facility, which is also quite large.

Su Yu was already mentally prepared for this budget. He nodded calmly, just about to say something.

Meanwhile, the Pokémon in the ranch all returned.

Seeing this, Su Yu also asked them:

"We're currently discussing the design plans for our new house. What are your thoughts on it?"

Upon hearing this, all the Pokémon curiously gathered around. "What? Are we building a new home?"

The rancher finally has enough money to renovate?

After glancing at the design drawings in Su Yu's hand, the Pokémon immediately began to discuss them, offering their suggestions one after another.

"Wow!" Why isn't there a trampoline park? We want a place where we can jump around to our hearts' content.

These are the sounds of woolly horned sheep.

"Awoo!" 0v0 I want a place where I can use fire-type moves freely, preferably in a separate room.

This is what Growlithe wants.

As for the other Pokémon, it's much simpler. Alcremie only needs a large enough kitchen with all the necessary equipment, and preferably some dessert-related machines.

The green onion duck only needs a sunny spot where its green onions can grow healthily, and a fully transparent living room can easily solve this problem.

Squirtle, on the other hand, was looking forward to the swimming pool. After all, it was a Water-type Pokémon and loved water very much.

After taking into account the demands of the vast majority of Pokémon, the cost of the house reached 960,000 League Coins, just a little short of reaching one million.
