MTL - Not a Trainer This Time-Chapter 15 Fish: Suffering from old sin

Chapter 15 Fish: Suffering from old sins

This spring rain lasted until the evening and did not stop.

Zhi Shu glanced at the old-fashioned pendulum clock on the wall. The time was still more than twenty minutes before five o'clock.

 After thinking for a moment, he was going to take Gulledon outside to see if he could catch some more fish and sell them to Zach later to support his family.

 There is a lot of water vapor remaining in the air after the rain, making it feel extremely humid.

Transparent water droplets slowly slid down the veins of the grass and dripped into the moist and soft soil.

Standing under the eaves, Naoki put on his rain boots, leaving the Green Caterpillar and the Motorized Lizard to stay at home while he took Gullton to the river.

 The reason why this is done is because Pokémon cannot wear shoes and will be stained with dirty mud when they go out. If you take them out, you will have to give them a bath when you come back later.

Zhi Shu felt it was troublesome, so he only brought one Pokémon, Gullton.

 The Motorized Lizard, who had not been taken out, stood under the eaves, looking at this side eagerly.

Huluton looked back and was extremely happy with Naoki's decision to just take him out.

 Even though that motorcycle lizard is itself.

Zhi Shu didn’t know what Gu Ledun was thinking. The two came to the river. Zhi Shu looked at Gulden with a smile and said, “Gulden, I’ll leave it to you!”

 On rainy days, the air pressure is low, and the oxygen content in the river water will also decrease. Fish will swim to shallow water areas to breathe. This time is often the best time to fish.

Hearing Zhi Shu's words, Zulu immediately understood. He patted his chest with his paws confidently, "Gah!"

 Just leave it to it!

As he said that, Guluton's expression suddenly became serious. While the aura on his body surged, his strong scarlet body jumped up. The dragon's whiskers on its head turned into wing-like things, and it violently smashed down while changing its form. .

With a loud "boom", a big hole was blown out of the water.

 The water in the river was shaken upward, turning into water droplets and falling down.

 Naoki: “…”

That move just now...should be Gullerton's exclusive move of full slam, right?

Zhishu observed Guledun's movements, and when he saw it returning to its fighting form and returning to the shore, he immediately confirmed his suspicion.

 It was indeed a full blast.

 Gulton’s exclusive super move in the game has a power of 100 and a hit of 100. When it hits a weak point, its power can be further enhanced.

 It’s a bit too luxurious to use full slam to catch fish.

Zhi Shu looked up at the river and saw fish of different sizes floating on it.

These fish have suffered a lot...

However, Guluton seemed to have deliberately restrained his strength. Although it seemed exaggerated, it did not really hurt these fish, but only stunned them with the aftermath.

 “Gah ah ah ah!”

 Completed the work distributed by Naoki, so Luton looked very happy.

Looking at the floating fish shadows in the upper reaches of the river, it eagerly asked: "Gah?"

Even though he didn’t understand it, Naoki miraculously understood its meaning. He quickly stopped him and said, “That’s enough!”

 As a qualified rancher, you should consider the long term and not fish all out, so as to achieve sustainable development.

 You have to leave time for the fish to thrive, right?

 Release ordinary fish Pokémon such as Magikarp, and only those ordinary river fish caught them all after ten minutes of work.

The tin bucket was filled to the brim. Looking at this scene, Zhi Shu was very happy.

 What a great harvest!

Carrying the fish bucket back to the wooden house, the Motorized Lizard was still standing under the eaves and looking out.

Seeing Naoshu coming back, its eyes suddenly lit up and it came forward. That look reminded Naoki of the big dog waiting for its owner to come home.

“Okay, okay, I’ll cook grilled fish for you tonight!” Zhi Shu patted the Motorized Lizard’s head, smiled and picked out a few fresh and plump rainbow trout from the bucket.

As soon as he finished his work, he heard the sound of a truck driving.

Looking up, Zack, who was wearing rain boots, opened the car door and jumped out.

"Today's weather is really bad! It's been raining all day. I've just been to several pastures and there's nothing to sell. I only collected a few baskets of eggs and a few cans of milk." Zach couldn't help complaining.

In this weather, most ranchers will not go out at all. They will choose to stay at home and watch TV or chat with their wives and children.

 “Do you have anything to sell?” Zach asked.

 Zhi Shu carried out the bucket of fish he had just caught: “It’s easier to catch fish on rainy days.”

Zach’s eyes widened: “So many?”

Zhi Shu and Gu Ledun beside him looked at each other and smiled.

"This is really surprising!" Zach stepped forward to classify and weigh the fish, and then said: "The total is 5210 alliance coins, you still worked really hard! Here!"

 Speaking, Zach handed over the money.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

 Zhi Shu took the money.

At this time, it began to drizzle again in the sky.

Zach glanced up, picked up the iron bucket and said, "I won't say much more, I'm leaving! It's raining hard again!"

"OK."

 The truck hurriedly came and left, pulling fresh aquatic products towards the direction of Zhiqin Town.

Zhi Shu took a deep breath, and then began to help Gu Ledun wash the mud off his body.

　　After being cleaned, Guluton instinctively shook off the water droplets on his body, then transformed into a galloping form, happily rushed to Naoki's side, and licked his face.

Zhi Shu was covered in saliva and almost knocked down. He couldn't help but said at a loss: "What happened to me suddenly..."

He put the blanket on Gulton, helped him dry the water on his body, then turned back to the house and put today's income in the drawer.

  Spring 198, January 7.

 Income: Fish+5210

 Expenditure: 0

  Remaining funds: 37700

"I'm still about ten thousand short of saving up enough money to repair the Pokémon hut. After the repair, I can start raising braided sheep and big milk cans in the pasture... But I don't know the price of braided sheep and big milk cans. With this money It’s probably not enough.”

 “Should we consider building a chicken shed first?”

Zhi Shu fell into deep thought.

Different from the Pokémon House, building a chicken house only costs 20,000 alliance coins, and compared to large milk tanks and braided sheep, the price of ordinary hens is much cheaper.

Hens lay eggs very quickly. A healthy hen can lay one egg per day. The eggs can be sold, used to hatch chicks, or kept for making fried eggs, steamed eggs, Food like omurice.

 In this way, he will not need to buy eggs from outside and can be self-sufficient.

Although the eggs are much inferior to those of Geely eggs, for him now, raising Geely eggs is simply impossible.

  In comparison, raising chickens is much more cost-effective.

Thinking of this, Naoki immediately made a decision.

 When it was sunny and dry, he went to the carpentry shop and commissioned Kelly to build a chicken house and officially started the breeding project.
