Elf Trader: My trump card is the Light/Dark Mantis.

Jiang Gu's tone was full of confidence.

"So, Miss Rika, if you think the price is too high..."

"Our shop suggests that you don't buy it."

At this moment, the two little sprouts and cactus rubbed against Rika affectionately, while staring at her with their big, watery eyes.

When Rika saw this scene, and looked at Jiang Gu's pretentious manner, she realized that Rika was also watching.

She was dumbfounded.

Chapter 5: The First Deal Completed!

Lijia suddenly felt a tightness in her chest.

Even the beautiful eyebrows and eyes on her fair face carried a hint of speechlessness.

The dojo master in Yuhong City feels like he's been tricked!

But then she saw the little bean sprout and the cactus acting all cute and cuddly towards her...

How could she possibly just turn around and leave?!

At this moment, Jiang Gu changed the subject again.

“Of course, Miss Lijia, you will soon realize that this deal is also very profitable for you.”

"These two Pokémon can only be purchased from me, which means that Ms. Rika is currently the only trainer besides me who owns these two Pokémon."

"I think it goes without saying how precious this is!"

"If you think about it this way, does it not seem so expensive?"

Little Blue, standing to the side, also stepped forward with a serious expression.

“Yeah, Lijia, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You're not short of money, so just spend it.”

The orange-haired girl was all smiles.

"Think about it, your money didn't actually go to Manager Jiang; it's just being used to accompany you in a different way."

At this moment, the little sprout, held in Lijia's arms, chirped softly, acting cute and affectionate.

Not to be outdone, the cactus next to her ran over and gently tugged at the hem of Rika's wide, elegant dress.

It seems that the two of them also have a considerable fondness for this gym leader who specializes in Grass-type Pokémon.

Seeing these two adorable little creatures, so affectionate.

In an instant, Lijia's psychological defenses were breached.

"Can't I just buy it?"

Just now, she looked like she had been ripped off.

The next moment, Rika casually pulled out a VIP card from a bank under the Pokémon League and handed it to Jiang Gu.

Soon, the money and goods were settled.

Jiang Gu handed the capsules belonging to Little Sprout and Cactus to Rika.

At the same time, he ran to the counter next to him, opened a drawer, and took out a crystal that was entirely orange-yellow.

"This is?"

After paying, Lijia stopped worrying about possibly being ripped off.

Instead, she happily hugged the two elves, and at the same time, she rubbed her cheek against the little bean sprout's tender yellow body in a cute and innocent way, looking very happy.

As the dojo master of Yuhong City accepted the capsule handed to him by Jiang Gu, he looked around with some curiosity.

"Although these two types of Pokémon can be carried in Poké Balls, they prefer to stay in these special capsules."

Jiang Gu casually offered an explanation.

He was right. After entering the world of Pokémon, the strange creatures in the Pokémon universe seemed to be recognized by this world as a type of Pokémon.

Therefore, Poké Balls can be used to hold bean sprouts and cacti.

However, they prefer capsules from the Seer universe.

"Oh, is it so?"

Lijia just nodded vaguely.

If it were a researcher like Dr. Oki, he would surely have discerned something from Egu's words and been greatly alarmed.

Surprisingly, two undiscovered Pokémon, bean sprouts and cacti, are better suited to storage methods other than Poké Balls.

This means that these Pokémon capsules are more effective than Poké Balls.

Otherwise, they may have come from a different Pokémon ecosystem than the Pokémon we know today!

This is absolutely a major event that will shake the world!

However, Rika, being a gym leader rather than a researcher, clearly hadn't considered this aspect.

She simply accepted the two capsules with delight.

After all, this meant that the two adorable little creatures in front of him would be living with him from now on.

However, Rika then looked at the orange-yellow crystal that Jiang Gu had handed her, and seemed a little puzzled.

Before the dojo master from Yuhong City could even ask a question...

Jiang Gu then spoke up.

"This is a Kross Crystal. If it is crafted into jewelry or worn on the body, it can subtly increase the training speed of Grass-type Pokémon."

"It's not expensive, only 500 million."

"500?"

"Wow, it's really not expensive..."

Lijia initially thought that this unscrupulous shopkeeper was going to try and sell her something again, trying to rip her off.

The price Jiang Gu offered surprised her.

It's not too high, it's too low!

In the League of Legends, items like Miracle Seeds and Mystic Drops, which can help Pokémon of the corresponding type accelerate their training and increase the power of their moves, can easily fetch five or six million.

Lijia never expected this...

Surprisingly, the same items sold here in Jianggu don't have any extra markup!

"Okay, I bought it."

Rika acted decisively. As the Grass-type Gym Leader, she was naturally interested in the resources and materials needed to train Grass-type Pokémon.

Then, I acquired the Kloss Crystal.

Lijia was slightly surprised.

"Such a strong Grass-type power."

As a Grass-type trainer, she had the ability to sense things and immediately felt the extraordinary nature of the crystal that Jiang Gu was selling.

And she looked pleasantly surprised.

The manager of the shady shop nearby also chimed in at the right time.

"By the way, this crystal can only be bought from me."

"And today's opening promotion only makes it five million..."

"Miss Lijia, if you need anything else, you are welcome to come again in the future."

"After that, there will probably be harassment."

Lijia carefully put the capsule and the Kloss crystal into her arms.

Then, she slightly lifted the hem of her gorgeous dress and bowed slightly.

Although Rika still felt she had been ripped off by Jiang Gu, this trip to the black market was worthwhile.

The dojo owner from Yuhu City believes it's excellent value for money!

In addition, due to her family's upbringing, she did not neglect Jiang Gu's manners.

However, later on, perhaps because he was eager to take the two Grass-type Pokémon back to the gym for more detailed testing, he decided to wait.

Lijia didn't continue chatting with Jiang Gu. She said goodbye to Xiao Lan and then chose to leave first.

……

Watching Lijia's figure gradually disappear into the distance.

Jiang Gu also revealed a faint smile.

The Kloss crystals he sold were indeed not expensive.

It's even cheaper!

Because this crystal is even more effective than other similar miracle seeds!

But the tricky part is...
