Pokémon: Gyarados Evolution

The commercial street is located in the center of the city, integrating food and shopping, and is very lively.

Jon is not unfamiliar with this place. When he lived in Chenghua City, he came here many times, mainly to participate in the Pokémon business competition in the central square.

At that time, the central square was crowded with people, and cheers and applause continued, occupying the entire commercial street.

Now, as the Caiyou Conference is approaching, most of the trainers, the main force of consumption, have gone to find places for special training. Without the competition, the commercial street seems much quieter.

Chenghua City is not big, and Jon and Da Yue quickly arrived at the commercial street.

There are many shops on both sides of the street, but there are very few customers.

Only in some material stores can you occasionally see some trainers purchasing necessities, and after buying things, they will leave in a hurry and rush to special training.

"Jon, what is your plan? What if you can't find the Skeleton Gang after sneaking into the black market?"

After finding a private room and sitting down, Jon let Lucario out. Lucario stood quietly aside. It can sense nearby waveguides to determine if anyone is nearby.

By the way, it can also solve the lunch problem. Lucario picked up a piece of food and ate it elegantly.

"Da Yue, what do you think the black market is made up of? Let's not talk about the managers. Let's just say that besides sellers and buyers, what else do you think there is?

Forget it, you don't know. The majority of them are actually intermediaries. They have no goods or money. How do they live?

That is the seller's entrustment or the buyer's entrustment. They help to facilitate the transaction. Even they are the foundation of the black market.

These people are often at the bottom, so there may be quite a few in our tavern last night."

Jon explained patiently. Da Yue was not stupid. He quickly straightened his mind, but he still had some questions.

"Even if that's the case, how do we put forward our demands to the intermediary?"

"This is the next step, Daiyue, time is not in a hurry, we have to disappear for a while."

Jon said mysteriously, the Skeleton Gang was re-established only a dozen days ago, and it was thanks to the fact that the undercover investigators in the water fleet were also brought here that they got some clues about the Skeleton Gang.

What the Skeleton Gang lacks most now is the activity funds. But robbing trainers is obviously not feasible, not because they are not strong enough, but because trainers don't bring much cash.

And most trainers don't have much money in their hands, and they have already used it to cultivate Pokémon.

Only when they go home or the alliance to make money will they have money, but that is just a drop in the bucket. After all, gym-level trainers only have 150,000 alliance coins a month, and they dare not easily provoke quasi-king and king-level trainers.

Therefore, they can only sell some assets taken out of the water fleet, but such things can only be placed on the black market.

After all, once they take it to the store to trade, it is easy to find out the source of the things.

"Disappear for a while?"

Da Yue was a little confused, and Jon laughed evilly, "Of course he was arrested."

Then Jon took a piece of Thunder Stone from his backpack. This Thunder Stone looked ordinary, and the energy inside was only average. If it was sold, it would be 200,000 Alliance coins.

Da Yue's first reaction was that Jon was going to give him the money he spent last night. As soon as he raised his hand, Jon spoke.

"Miss Junsha provided a private ore exchange. It has just opened and has received reports from several people.

They reported that after signing the contract, the ore they received was tampered with, but there is a lack of evidence, so it is still under investigation.

Moreover, I speculate that if there is a problem with this exchange, perhaps they are also related to the black market."

The ore exchange is a place for trainers in need to exchange ores on an equal basis. Their employees will also obtain ore inspection qualification certificates before they can start working. After the inspection is completed, transactions can be carried out.

But when the trainers returned home, some people who felt something was wrong would retest it and found that the energy of the ore was not as they said, and was often inferior.

However, the store would ignore it because the trainers had already used the energy inside. If the trainers failed to test it, they would even call the police and say that someone was making trouble.

"How to make a big fuss?"

Da Yue felt that Jon's method was reliable, but as for being caught, it was impossible, so he had to plan it well.

After eating and drinking, Jon and Da Yue successfully found the ore exchange.

The door of the exchange looked new, but it was deserted.

EnterAfter entering the gate, the beautiful lady at the front desk stood up quickly and showed a professional smile.

Her smile was like a formatted program, seemingly enthusiastic, but also a little indifferent.

"Hello, do you have any needs?"

Da Yue glanced at Jon, and then Jon took out the Thunder Stone from his backpack.

"I want to exchange it for a similar Fire Stone. Do you have any?"

The front desk nodded, and soon a man in a suit came to the hall with a steady pace and led Jon and Da Yue into a room inside.

The room was simply and neatly arranged, with a table, a few chairs, and some pictures and introductions about minerals hanging on the wall.

"Please have tea."

A lady was in charge of reception. She came over with two cups of tea, and another staff member showed his ID and began to test Jon's Thunder Stone.

He held various instruments and carefully tested the energy of the Thunder Stone.

There was no problem with the test, after all, they didn't know whether the trainers who came here had tested themselves.

"The energy contained in this thunder stone is not high, only about 25%. If you need to exchange it, I will arrange for my colleagues to find one with similar energy." The staff said.

"Okay, thank you for your trouble."

Jon said politely. Generally, exchanges need to pay service fees, which are almost 5% of the price of the ore.

This is also the original intention of their establishment, but obviously this one is different. After Jon completed the inspection in front of him, he put it in the box.

Then they took out the contract and signed the exchange agreement. Everything was normal.

However, after putting it in the box, it will take some time for him to get it. Although the staff holding the fire stone did not leave, Jon felt that the problem was with him.

When the difference between energy stones is not big, most people can't see it, and Jon is the same.

After signing his name, Jon couldn't wait to open the box. At present, what he got was indeed the fire stone, no problem.
