Pokemon: I'm really a civilian trainer

"Orange fruit? Did you pick this from Qingxi Forest?"

"Well, you gave me two bottles of wound medicine a few days ago. I happened to find this tree fruit, so I brought some of it back to you. In addition, I plan to sell some of this orange fruit. You know, my green caterpillar has always wanted a poke ball."

Following Mark's words, the green caterpillar suddenly widened its eyes.

The surprise came unexpectedly, is it going to have its own elf ball?

Old man Qian touched the green caterpillar's head with his hand and said, "Little guy, you may have to look forward to it in vain. The orange fruits you and the master picked alone are not enough to buy a second-hand poke ball."

Mark frowned slightly and said, "Is the price of orange fruit so low?"

Although the fact that the village chief gave him two bottles of wound medicine casually, he knew that the value of the orange fruit used as the raw material of the wound medicine might not be too high, but Mark didn't expect it to be so low.

You know, the orange fruit he brought back weighed almost two catties.

Old man Qian said: "For a catty, the purchase price of the merchants in Sanshan Town is around 100 yuan. If you want to buy a brand new Poké Ball, you need about 50 catties, that is, two orange trees full of fruits.

Or, you can also go to Sanshan Town to set up a stall and sell it yourself. You can sell it for an extra 20 to 30 yuan per catty. If you are lucky, you can sell it for 150 yuan per catty.

But I don't recommend you to do this, not only to set up a stall, but also to sell to the merchants in Sanshan Town. You can leave these fruits to your green caterpillar and the cowardly bug that will hatch next.

In addition to being the main material for making wound medicine, orange fruit can also improve the body's physical fitness when taken by elves. Taking it for a long time can make elves stronger. "

Mark thought about it.

In fact, relying on more than a dozen orange fruit trees in the territory of the green caterpillar, it is still possible to produce hundreds of catties of orange fruit in exchange for money to buy poke balls, but this is really not worthwhile.

Even if all the orange fruit trees are plucked, only seven to eight poke balls can be exchanged.

Moreover, doing so will destroy the ecological balance of the green caterpillars, slow down the recovery of the green caterpillars' injuries, and indirectly slow down the progress of the green caterpillars' training through combat.

In contrast, it is better to pick hundreds of old, weak, sick and disabled from the green caterpillar colony and sell them to the green caterpillar breeding base in Qingxi Village.

On the one hand, it can allow these old, weak, sick and disabled to come to the breeding base to live their lives, and on the other hand, it can also allow him to earn some starting capital. After all, no matter which world he is in, money is needed.

"No, the taste of your orange fruit is not right. Could it be that it has gone bad?"

Mark, who was thinking, was interrupted by a sentence. He saw Old Man Qian sniffing the orange fruit with his nose, and immediately explained: "It's not spoiled, these orange fruits are sprayed with some smelly liquid by the tentacles of green caterpillars, so they have some smell, just wash them and they will be fine."

Old Man Qian was surprised at first, and then showed a praising expression. He patted Mark on the shoulder and said, "Awesome, I didn't expect you and the green caterpillar to come up with this method. This way, you don't have to worry about the orange fruit on the tree being picked by those wild elves. You boy, you have the style I used to..."

Hearing the praise from the village head and old man, Mark wanted to explain, after all, the stinky sap of these berries was made by the leader of the green caterpillar, but he quickly thought of something.

Qingxi Village still does not know that there are wild green caterpillars in Qingxi Forest.

If exposed, his next plan to use the green caterpillar swarm to exercise will also be aborted.

In the end, Mark accepted Old Man Qian's praise silently.

On the opposite side of Mark, old man Qian's thoughts had drifted back to the past.

When he was young, he also found an orange tree full of fruits in Qingxi Forest.

Different from now, the artificial breeding technology of orange oranges in that era was not yet mature, and the price was more than ten times that of now.

At that time, he immediately ran back to the village with his wrists ready to pick tools and bags. Later, seeing that it was getting late, he decided to set off the next day.

As a result, when he went back the next day, the mature fruits of the entire fruit tree had been eaten up by the elves in the forest, leaving only some half-ripe crooked melons and dates...

Life is full of all kinds of regrets. Every time old man Qian thinks about this matter, he will unconsciously feel depressed.

If he could set off at night like Mark, and pick those orange fruits overnight, then he... the grass on his grave must have grown to a height of more than three meters.

The night in Qingxi Forest is still very dangerous. After all, he is not a ruthless person like Mark who can survive in the wilderness at the age of two or three.

Without continuing to think about it, old man Qian said: "Okay, I won't stay up late with you when I get older, and the school's Teacher Sun has returned today, and the school will start normally tomorrow.

Now that you have regained your intelligence, stop running around in the forest like before. Stay here honestly today, and tomorrow morning, I will take you to the school to report. "

After saying that, Old Man Qian went back to his bedroom to rest, and Mark also went back to his room.

As far as the eye can see, there is a card similar to an ID card on the table.

It has his name, age and address printed on it, as well as a black and white headshot that looks a bit silly, which seems to be a photo taken by the village head old man before.

Besides that, there are two sets of clothes on the bed.

Same as before, they are all bug-catching boy-style suits. Next to the clothes, there is also a set of toiletries, toothbrush, toothpaste, towels, soap...

Mark glanced at his tattered clothes and sighed.

In his bones, he didn't want to owe favors to others, so every time he came back from Qingxi Forest, he would bring something to the village elder, and it was the same with the orange fruit he brought back this time.

As a result, instead of reducing the amount he owed to the village head and old man, it became more and more...

...

next morning.

When Old Man Qian woke up, he saw Mark and the green caterpillar writing and drawing with branches on the ground in the yard. It seemed that Mark was teaching the green caterpillar to count.

He glanced at the heavy black stone in the middle of the courtyard and shook his head slightly.

On the layer of fine sand near the black heavy stone, there were no traces.

Young people are always passionate for three minutes. It was obvious that Mark and the green caterpillar had been practicing [Crash] tirelessly a few days ago, and it seemed that they would never stop, but they stopped today.

Old Man Qian coughed lightly and said: "At your current age, although you may not like to hear some preaching words, I still have to say something. Persistence is the only way to achieve success."

Mark was stunned for a moment, realized something and said, "Are you saying that I didn't let the green caterpillar practice [hitting] with that black heavy stone today?"

Old Man Qian glanced at Mark, didn't say anything, rubbed the stubble on his chin and said, "This depends on your own understanding."

Sensing old man Qian's concern, Mark explained with a smile: "Thank you for your concern. In fact, the green caterpillar and I are not as slack as you think. We just feel that it is more efficient in actual combat than using wooden stakes or stones as targets for training."

"Actual combat?" Old man Qian thought thoughtfully: "A few days ago, you and the green caterpillar were injured. Could it be because of actual combat? You have been in the forest with the green caterpillar for the past few days and have not come back, is it also because of actual combat?"

"Um."

Mark nodded slightly.

"Hiss!"

The green caterpillar also echoed. It and Mark have been exercising with the green caterpillar group these days, and they have a very fulfilling life!

"this……"

Old man Qian asked himself, he had seen some hard-working trainers, but there were very few who could reach Mark's level.

Mark thought of something and said: "By the way, the village chief, I am currently teaching green caterpillars mathematics in my free time.

As you know, the bloodline gene of Ba Da Die has the skill of [Mind Power], so I plan to use mathematics as an entry point to exercise the brain power of the green caterpillar in advance, so that after the green caterpillar evolves into Ba Da Die in the future, the [Mind Power] it can master will also be stronger.

I just taught the green caterpillar for a while, and it has already learned the counting skills within 100. It can do it by counting up and down, but it still can’t find any tricks by counting backwards. Do you have any method? "

Faced with Mark's words, old man Qian gradually widened his eyes, showing a surprised expression.

By teaching the green caterpillar mathematics, the brain power of the green caterpillar can be improved, so that when the green caterpillar evolves into a big butterfly, the [mind power] it can master will also be more powerful.

This is the first time he has heard of this technique of training green caterpillars, and it sounds very reliable.

He even wants to try Mark's method if he has a green caterpillar too.

At this moment, he sincerely felt that a new generation replaced the old, and he felt old.

Suddenly, old man Qian realized something and came back to his senses.

Old man Qian looked at the green caterpillar who was writing and drawing on the ground with a branch full of doubts, and said, "You just seemed to say that your green caterpillar has learned to count within 100. With the intelligence of a green caterpillar, can it learn to count?"
