Chapter 19 Xia Chi and Qi Shu's Secret Deal (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
The argument didn't last long; the topic eventually ended with Qishu saying, "Fine, just call me Qishu."

The two also seriously discussed the breeding data of the new Leaf Cat.

Qishu: "Speaking of which, both Kosa and Sister Yeci have bred Magic Masked Cat. Which one do you want?"

Xia Chi was secretly delighted. What a wonderful thing!
Kosha is the Grass-type Gym Leader of the Padia region, so his deep understanding of the Grass-type Pokémon, Leafeon, goes without saying.

Yeci is also the top champion of the Padiya League, and his strength is beyond doubt.

However, I've never seen her use the Magic Masked Cat in the game, so I don't know if she's just a benchwarmer in her lineup.

But then again, no matter what, Xia Chi has no right to criticize the champion's training experience.

Which one should I choose if I have to choose between the two?
Kosa is more skilled with Grass-type moves, while Yeci is stronger.

Both have their advantages.

Xia Chi, who has been caught in a dilemma between two options these past two days, has once again suffered from decision paralysis.

Wait a minute, Qishu isn't a rigid system, so why can't I imagine wanting it all?
Thinking this, Xia Chi replied, "How about this, you help me organize the two sets of cultivation data for the new Leaf Cat, and also prepare a few high-quality Miracle Seeds and send them over in a package."

As Xun Ge once said, if you want to open a window, you must first ask to open the door.

However, Xia Chi's request was far more than just asking for the door to open; it was practically outrageous.

I thought the other end would reply with a simple question mark.

Unexpectedly, the message from the strange tree was...
"sure!"

Xia Chi immediately executed a tactical lean back.

No, you're accepting such an outrageous request?
Mr. Qishu, you don't actually have some McDonald's connections, do you?

Xia Chi, who was secretly grumbling to himself, immediately saw the next sentence appear on the screen.

"But you have to agree to two conditions."

Xia Chi was not surprised; there is no such thing as a free lunch.

It's perfectly normal for Qishu to want two conditions in return for wanting the breeding data of Xinye Miao.

Xia Chi didn't intend to refuse; interpersonal relationships always involve give and take.

It is through these interactions that relationships between people become increasingly closer.

It's impossible for you to always take advantage of others without ever experiencing any loss, right?

Who will want to play with you after that?

And then again.

Who could resist the friendship of a beautiful female dojo owner and married female streamer?
Anyway, Xia Chi can't do it.

Despite thinking this, Xia Chi still replied, "Don't go too far. Two conditions are too many. One at most. At worst, we can give up the Miracle Seed and exchange two sets of cultivation data for one condition."

Prison Water Interpersonal Relationships Mini-Class, Session 2 – "Dark Psychology"

Don't let the other party be able to easily understand your thoughts.

The initial stages of relationship building often determine the framework of the entire relationship.

Although Xia Chi is far inferior to Qi Shu in both fame as a streamer and skill as a trainer.

But he still wants to build a more equal and healthy relationship.

After all, he wasn't used to being on the bottom.

------

The strange tree replied, "Don't worry, the conditions won't be unreasonable. There are only two, and I can send you a miracle seed from the Viridian Forest!"

In the game, Miracle Seeds are items that can increase the power of Grass-type moves held by Pokémon.

In reality, it is the most suitable training tool for Grass-type Pokémon to grow.

Miracle seeds typically grow in remote, uninhabited wilderness areas.

Although the Donghuang people, whose DNA is ingrained in their bones, have developed the technology to artificially cultivate miracle seeds, the results are far inferior to those of wild, natural ones.

Among them, the Miracle Seeds produced by Evergreen Forest are of the highest quality, and a single seed can often fetch tens of thousands of dollars.

Teacher Qishu is really too generous!
Actually, if you pay enough, being Miss Qishu's Growlithe isn't a bad idea.
No way! Xia Chi, who had almost succumbed to the allure of money, gritted her teeth and replied, "Name your conditions first, and I'll consider it."

Qi Shu: "First, you have to set aside one day each month to play games with me!"

Oh, so it's a game companion service. I thought it was just a game companion service.

This request is indeed not unreasonable; it's equivalent to Xia Chi working part-time as a gaming companion.

If you calculate it once a month, that's only twelve days a year, which easily translates to a daily wage of over ten thousand.

Xia Chi had not considered how long this "contract" would last.

In his view, the strange tree was just something new and exciting for a short time.

Maybe she'll get tired of him in a few months and won't want to hang out with him anymore?

If I were to ask for the exact duration, I would seem presumptuous.

Xia Chi replied, "Okay, that's no problem. What's the second condition?"

Qi Shu: "I haven't decided yet, I'll save this for later! (Electric Frog puffing out its belly.gif)"

Xia Chi refused, saying, "No, what's the difference between this and asking for two hundred more conditions?"

Kiju: "Don't worry, I promise I won't set any conditions that would put you in a difficult position."

Qi Shu: "If you feel it's not fair, we can discuss it further later, or you can simply refuse."

Since Qi Shu had said so, Xia Chi felt that it would be ungrateful of him not to accept.

So he replied, "Okay, then that's settled."

Qi Shu: "It's a deal!"

Qishu: "I'll get the cultivation materials for you tomorrow, and I'll send the Miracle Seed to you via Dragon Express in a bit!"

This isn't clickbait; it's a genuine company operated by the Miyuki family in the Kanto region, and all their packages use Miyuki for delivery.

Xia Chi had only heard of it before, but had never used it.

The cost of this thing alone is ridiculously high.

It consumes half a box of high-grade energy cubes worth thousands of dollars per hundred kilometers. Who can afford to burn that much?
The customer base consists of users like Qishu who are not short of money.

After giving the address to Qishu, the two said goodbye on Bogaman.

Xia Chi also washed up and went to bed.

Having captured his desired starter Pokémon, Qishu's livestreaming career is booming, and he even gave himself a big gift.

After a fulfilling day, Xia Chi slept exceptionally well that night.

It was woken up early the next morning by knocking on the window.

Xia Chi was still a little dazed, but the thought that she lived on the fourth floor immediately woke her up.

Oh no, there's something dirty!
Just as I was thinking of calling Shin-Ye-Nyan to prepare for the enemy, I got up and saw a cute, chubby orange face.

(Courier Kuailong)

It's a Dragonite.

Holy crap, that fast?

Xia Chi was shocked.

In just over ten hours, the goods were delivered directly from Padiya to Donghuang?
This shows that while Dragonite's speed isn't as exaggerated as the Pokédex says—"it can circle the Earth in 16 hours"—it's not far off.

Of course, the prices for Express Delivery are also quite high.

Putting efficiency aside, when an adorable Dragonite flaps its tiny wings, disproportionate to its large body, and hands you a package...

The spiritual satisfaction alone made the ticket price worthwhile.

It can only be said that Yulongjia's business idea of ​​accurately grasping the psychology of wealthy women like Qishu who are not short of money must have been guided by a mastermind.
