Pokémon: Starting with a Pokémon Ranch.

Chapter 54 It's snowing in the ranch

That evening, almost all the Pokémon in the ranch gathered indoors and ate their own dinners.

To ensure the Woolblade sheep had enough energy, Su Yu went to town and bought several large bottles of MooMoo fresh milk. From then on, the Woolblade sheep's staple food became milk pudding.

As for what the other Pokémon eat, it's the same as usual.

After finishing dinner, Su Yu washed the dishes. When he came out, he heard his Growlithe barking loudly outside.

"What's wrong?"

Hearing the sound, Su Yu opened the door in confusion, only to see snow falling heavily outside.

"Wow, it's snowing..."

"I didn't expect the temperature to drop so quickly; it's already snowing." Su Yu said, exhaling white breath.

Seeing that it was snowing outside, the other Pokémon gathered around. They all seemed to have never seen snow before, especially Caterpie, Wooloo, and other Pokémon that were less than a year old.

Upon seeing the snow, the woolly sheep, with their thick wool for warmth, immediately darted out and rolled and played in the snow with the Growlithe.

The other Pokémon remained on the sidelines, observing rather than rushing out recklessly. Alcremie, in particular, seemed to be the most sensitive to the cold among all the Pokémon.

"Put these on. I prepared them for you a long time ago. I just knew this would happen."

As she spoke, Su Yu took out several scarves from the house. These were bought when she went to the department store last time, but she hadn't taken them out then.

I took out scarves and put them on the Pokémon before they dared to step into the snow.

"Mama~"

Alcremie even tried to touch the snow on the ground with its hand, but as soon as it touched the snow, it immediately pulled its hand back. It felt like this cream Pokémon was about to be frozen into frozen cream by the snow.

Seeing this, Su Yu smiled and said:

"It seems we didn't buy a complete set of warm clothing. We should have prepared a pair of gloves for you."

"That way, we might be able to have a snowball fight."

Snowball fight?

Upon hearing this word, the Pokémon all looked over, as if they didn't know what it meant.

Seeing this, Su Yu explained:

"It's a game where you make snowballs out of the snow on the ground and throw them at each other. But we'll have to wait for more snow to fall; there's definitely not enough snow for a snowball fight right now."

As he spoke, Su Yu thought for a moment and then added:

"In some places, people don't necessarily use their hands to have a snowball fight; they might use a basin instead."

Upon hearing this, the Pokémon all showed longing expressions, as if they wanted to have a snowball fight.

Even the caterpillars became interested.

Seeing this, Su Yu also smiled and said:

"Let's wait a few days, until the snow is a bit thicker, and I'll go buy some gloves while I'm at it, then we can have a snowball fight."

……

Although the snow is still falling.

But the rancher's work must continue.

The next morning, Su Yu got up and went to the herb field to check on the medicinal herbs.

Fortunately, the previous insulation measures were in place, and an insulated shed was built in advance. Although it has snowed, it has little impact on the medicinal herbs.

With such heavy snowfall, ordinary crops couldn't be grown, and Su Yu had already gradually stopped planting crops several days ago. He only kept a few greenhouses open to grow some everyday food.

Therefore, after examining the medicinal herbs, Su Yu returned to the house and began milking the lambs on his mount.

"Today I have to deliver goat milk to the ranchers who have ordered it. Ugh... it's so cold. I really don't want to go out."

Inside, Su Yu could use his Growlithe dog as a heater. But outside, he would be facing the fierce cold wind.

After milking the lambs, Su Yu counted them and found that there were actually eight bottles of goat milk today.

"So much goat milk? It seems the herbal cake worked!" Su Yu exclaimed in surprise.

Moreover, it seems that this is far from the upper limit for the mount sheep. If a bottle of sheep milk costs 500 Alliance Coins, that's 4,000 Alliance Coins a day.

"It seems we can start building the new house earlier again," Su Yu said with a smile.

After milking the goats, Su Yu rode the tropical dragon out to deliver the goat milk to the ranchers.

Of course, Su Yu didn't forget the promise he made to the appliance store owner when he bought the milking machine, and he also gave him a bottle on the way.

The appliance store owner was quite surprised to see Su Yu running out to deliver goat milk in the heavy snow.

Su Yu laughed and said:

"Boss, you promised to buy goat milk from me, so you have to keep your promise!"

"When did I say I was going to buy it? I don't remember. Do you think what you said before counts?"

Upon hearing this, the boss said half-jokingly.

However, he also accepted the goat milk that Su Yu handed him and asked:

"How much is one bottle?"

"five hundred."

"What? So expensive?" The shopkeeper was shocked to hear Su Yu's high price.

Generally speaking, a bottle of goat milk costs around three or four hundred Alliance coins.

Selling it for 500 Alliance Coins is already the same price as those average quality MooMoo Fresh Milk.

In response, Su Yu took out the nutritional information table that Grandpa Liu had previously tested, pointed to the table, and said:

"This is goat milk with nutritional value that's just as good as fresh Moo Moo milk, so the price you're paying is already very fair."

Upon hearing this, the old shopkeeper puffed out his beard and glared, but finally, with a resigned air, he said in dejection:

"Alright, alright, five hundred it is. You little rascal, if your ranch ever needs to buy anything, remember to come and patronize my business."

"Okay, I'll definitely do it next time."

After taking the money from the shopkeeper, Su Yu mounted the tropical dragon, ready to head back.

After flying a short distance, Su Yu remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to buy something, so he patted the tropical dragon and said:

"Let's turn back. We haven't bought gloves or anything yet."

"With the snow falling so much, the snow on the ranch might be deep enough for a snowball fight."

"Hey!"

Upon hearing this, the tropical dragon changed direction.

They arrived at the entrance of the department store again. After putting away Tropius, Su Yu went to the area selling Pokémon clothing with ease.

I picked out a few pairs of gloves and bought some warm clothes. The clothes here are incredibly diverse, including all sorts of Pokémon designs.

Every day, all sorts of trainers spend lavishly here. Some are genuinely wealthy, while others simply enjoy dressing up their Pokémon.

The most frequent visitors here are a type of Poodle Pokémon called Dorimia. It seems that trainers who own this Pokémon really enjoy dressing them up and are very generous with their spending.

"As expected, some Pokémon only need to be cute or cool enough to have a good life in the hands of human trainers."

Su Yu thought to himself.

However, he is a practical person and is not very interested in this type of Pokémon.

"I'll also buy a saddle for Tropius. It'll keep him warm and prevent his butt from getting so uncomfortable when I ride him."

With that, Su Yu headed toward the area selling saddles.
