I, the elf, dig mines to support you

Chapter 200 The steel sapling has grown up

It really made Jiro feel very comfortable to gain so much in one trip, but when he returned to the island after finishing his work, how to arrange them became a big problem.

Let’s not mention Kuailong, these seven thorn dragon kings plus the one obtained from the poacher before are eight.

In terms of food, it is easy to talk about, but the key is how to arrange them.

According to Jiro's understanding of them, the most suitable place to place them is in the trench, where the pressure of deep water can temper their bodies and make them stronger.

But the problem is that as far as the current situation is concerned, as long as Jiro dares to put them in the trench, they will dare to escape.

After all, the leader of the thorn dragon king with high IQ will not give in so easily.

Moreover, their greatest role is in reproduction. When they have evolved to full bodies, their offspring will naturally be better than the offspring born to sea thorns.

It would be a pity not to keep them in captivity so that they can breed well.

After thinking for a long time, Jiro still couldn't find a suitable solution, so he had no choice but to leave them to Ms. Joy for the time being.

Wait until I can recruit talents in breeding.

Later, he found Satake and handed over the dragon bones to him. He was an expert in this area, which saved Jiro a lot of effort.

It's just that when I found him, I learned an unexpected thing.

"What? You mean that steel seedling has grown?"

Speaking of this seedling, it was obtained from a strange steel bird before. After it was brought to the real world, Jiro couldn't figure out how it got there, so he simply handed it to Satake some time ago.

Try to see if he, an environmental expert, can figure out its use.

It's just that for a long time before, there was no movement after the sapling was planted, but unexpectedly good news came today.

Immediately, he followed Satake directly to the place where the seedlings were.

Not long after, I saw a seedling that had grown to half a person's height, but it looked a little weird, with no flowers and leaves, only branches full of metallic luster.

It looks like a smaller version of the steel spikes in the steel jungle.

Looking at the place above its roots, there are a few pieces of scrap iron half exposed outside. At this point, Jiro finally understood the secret of its growth.

"So that's it. This seedling needs steel as a nutrient to grow. No wonder there was no way to make it grow up before."

Hearing this, Satake's face was a little excited: "Master, you are right, that's exactly what you said."

"However, its function is more than that simple. Look here, these pieces are useless scrap iron, but the branches that grow after being absorbed by it contain energy."

"According to my tests, these branches can be used as food for steel-type Pokémon."

"And if it grows into a towering tree, the energy contained in it will definitely increase further. At that time, its branches can be used to make high-grade food for steel-type Pokémon."

"It only takes a small process to convert scrap iron into high-value high-end food. We are about to send it out."

"It's a pity that it still needs some time to grow, and it only has this single plant. If there are more, it will be comfortable."

"."

After listening to his words, Jiro was also a little happy. Now, isn't there another kind of economic pillar for Xiangwu Island.

And he thought more, since this branch contains energy, it should be used as the raw material for the metal film. Making this kind of props can make more money than making food alone.

Of course, taking a step back, even if it can only make food, it doesn't matter. Jiro can rely on it to cultivate a large number of steel-type Pokémon.

As for the issue of scarcity, it is not a problem in his eyes.

Since this one can be obtained from the strange bird, it means that the second, third, and even the Nth one can be obtained.

And when the strength becomes stronger in the future, it will be even simpler, just go directly to cut down the steel forest.

To be honest, if it wasn't for the monster bird he saw that time, Jiro would be able to secretly cut down the outside.

"You take good care of it, and build those bones into a nest suitable for hatching ink seahorses as soon as possible. If you need anything, just ask the president directly."

After patting him on the shoulder and handing over the matter to him, Jiro thought about it, got on the fossil pterosaur and went to the fossil pterosaur happy pool, which is the lake where the dull beast lives.

I haven't seen it for a while, and the dull beasts are still the same, but under the command of Sunflower's dull king, they started to breed offspring.

It's a pity that the effect is still not ideal, until now, only two eggs have been added, and there is a long way to go to expand their group.

But Jiro came here not only to look at them, but also to look at the ugly ugly fish that were kept in a closed area next to him.

Since the last whim, he has created this fish gate world for these ugly ugly fish that have just hatched, completely isolated from the outside world.

Only one female staff member is left to take care of them.

The task of the staff, in addition to feeding, is to praise them every day, so that the ugly ugly fish have the idea that their mothers are the most beautiful in the world.

Just don't know if this will work.

But it's not a big problem, anyway, the cost is not too big, so it's just an attempt.

After recruiting the staff and briefing her about the progress, Jiro took off again and arrived at the last stop of the day, Dr. Alan's research institute.

Originally, Jiro just wanted Pokby to get in touch with Pokkisi as usual, but when he landed at the entrance of the institute, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

No matter how you say it, Ailan is a real doctor. Maybe she knows some doctors who are good at breeding.

Rather than looking for a needle in a haystack, it is better to ask her, maybe you can really get reliable target information from her.

Thinking of this, Jiro took even bigger steps, and soon, he saw Dr. Alan.

But unexpectedly, seeing her this time, she didn't fall into a state of frantic research. She looked neat and tidy, and she was drinking coffee and teasing Pokkisi leisurely.

There's a big problem with this.

Fortunately, after a simple understanding, Jiro realized that she has basically thoroughly studied this fossil now, and she has not found a new research topic, so it is what he saw.

Seeing this, he finally felt relieved.

As long as there is no problem with Alan, after all, she is the best researcher in her hands. Even if she specializes in fossil research, it is very rare.

Nowadays, I don't know how many forces are coveting her.

If there was a mistake, Jiro would be heartbroken to death.

But having said that, as a Ph.D., just being idle like this is the biggest waste of resources. To put it lightly, it is a waste of her talent, a waste of her talent.

To put it more seriously, it is irresponsible to the Pokémon world and causes huge losses to all mankind.

It seems to find something for her to do.

But this time I came here not because of this matter, so I will talk about it later, the more important thing is: "Dr. Ailan, do you know any people in the wild who are related to breeding and breeding at the doctoral or professor level?"

"If you know someone, please help to introduce them, thank you very much."

"Recommend a Ph.D. in this field? Hey, don't say it. During this period of time, with the popularity of fossil research, I have also become famous, so I really know a lot of Ph.Ds."

"Naturally there are doctors in this field, but with all due respect, it's okay if you ask them for help, but if you want to recruit them, with your current influence, there is no possibility of success at all."

Although Dr. Ailan is a research fanatic, he is not the kind of person who is single-minded and has extremely low EQ.

As soon as Jiro spoke, she understood Jiro's purpose, so she told the truth.

However, Jiro was a little curious about her categorical answer: "Why do you say there is no possibility of success in recruiting? Didn't I succeed in recruiting a doctor like you?"

"Could it be that they have no desires or desires?"

Anyone who is a person will have desires, and doctors are no exception.

Just hearing this, Alan shook his head: "Those people are different from me, a 'poor' ghost."

"There is no shortage of money among all the doctors who are good at breeding."

"On the contrary, there are a lot of people rushing to send them money, but many of them are turned away by them."

"In the field of research, having enough money can almost solve more than 99% of the troubles, unless you can come up with things that cannot be bought with money and are fatally attractive to them."

"Otherwise, why would they come to such a distant island?"

This is true, and let alone those doctors, even if it was Alan, if he hadn't saved her, she would not have followed to Xiangwu Island.

But it's not that Jiro doesn't know this truth. Since he came to look for Alan, he is naturally sure.

"I may not have other things, but when it comes to things that money can't buy and are fatally attractive to them, I really do have them."

"For example, knowledge, unknown, secret knowledge."

The phrase 'no one knows Pokémon better than me' was not uttered by Jiro.

Even for legendary Pokémon, Eudemons, and Ultra Beasts, as long as the other party wants to know, Jiro can recite their detailed information.

As for the doctor in breeding, he also has a killer move, which is the egg genetic move that he wanted to use for fishing.

But Ailan didn't know Jiro's secret, so after hearing what he said, he just thought he was referring to the experience that the Wu clan had summed up over the years of cultivating Pokémon.

So he said directly: "If you want to take out your old background, maybe some people will be tempted, but you don't have too much expectation."

"After all, which of the Eight Great Avenues does not have this thing."

"And the knowledge of rock properties alone is too one-sided and too little, so the chance of success in recruiting is still very low."

Hearing this, Jiro knew that the other party was not on the same channel as him, so he decisively interrupted her and said, "Doctor, the knowledge I'm talking about doesn't refer to these."

"Although I am also a member of the Wu clan, after all, I started from scratch and did not inherit the Dark Gray Gym, so I do not have the right to sell those knowledge."

"The knowledge I'm referring to is something I got from other places, about genetic skills."

"I believe you, doctor, also know that the offspring of Pokémon born with the same egg group but not the same family, sometimes it will learn unique skills that its family could not learn."

"Hmm~"

"I'll take the Super Armored Crazy Rhinoceros as an example. It originally couldn't learn the tricks of Dragon God's dive and defense. If it can learn Dragon God's dive, it means that its ancestors have been with the Quasi-God Lie Bite Land Shark Clan or Earth Dragon Brother."

"And you know how helpful this move is to the Super Armored Rhino. Not only is the unique move itself powerful, but also because this move is a dragon attribute, it adds a wider attack surface to the Super Armored Rhino."

"That alone underscores the value of genetics."

"And I have a lot of knowledge about genetic moves. Many of them are Pokémon that are very popular in battle. Tell me, can this knowledge attract a doctor?"

After speaking a long paragraph in one breath, Jiro tried his best to express his meaning clearly.

Therefore, the evaluation of the value of this knowledge must be handed over to the more professional Ailan.

It's just that after listening to his words, Alan fell into deep thought for a long time, until Jiro couldn't wait to speak, she finally said: "To be honest, after hearing what you said, I want to turn to genetic research."

"I don't know where your knowledge comes from, but if it is released, it will definitely cause a big earthquake in the research world."

"According to my knowledge, there are currently people who specialize in this area, and even Dr. Oki is one of them."

"If it wasn't for his high status, you could have recruited him with these things."

Solicit Dr. Oki?

This is something that Jiro dare not even think about, because it is true that, as Dr. Alan said, his status is too high, and the alliance is only counted as cooperating with him. Is he still better than the alliance?

But Ailan was just talking, ignoring Dr. Oki's mention, she finally put forward a definite plan.

"To be honest, since you have this knowledge in your hands, it is better to recruit several experienced top breeders than to recruit a doctor."

"However, use this knowledge to push them to the position of Ph.D."

"In this way, they can be regarded as half of your direct descendants. I don't need to say more, you understand how beneficial this will be."
