Trainer? I'm just an ordinary hot spring owner.

"In exchange, you can't attack those sun corals anymore. If you want to eat them, you can ask me for them, okay?"

Jiang Cheng was still explaining his conditions, but he found that Haohuaxing was not listening at all, and his eyes kept following the coral branch in his hand.

Jiang Cheng moved his hand, and the coral branch instantly hid in his palm.

“So bad!!”

The delicious sun coral branch disappeared in an instant, making Haohuaxing very anxious. It anxiously urged Jiang Cheng to take out the branch quickly. It wanted to go forward and grab it directly, but Zhenyifa, who was eyeing it covetously on the side, made it give up the idea and could only watch Jiang Cheng anxiously.

"Good and Bad Star, you have to learn to listen to others." Jiang Cheng was not moved at all, he just looked at Good and Bad Star calmly.

“So bad, so bad!!”

Jiang Cheng waited patiently for Haohuaxing to calm down. Seeing that his repeated urging was fruitless, Haohuaxing also knew from the feedback given by Jiang Cheng that the other party would not give him the delicious branches just because of his urging, so he could only calm down.

"Very good, you have learned to be quiet and listen to others, you bad star, you did a great job, this is your reward."

Jiang Cheng took out the sun coral branch in his hand and handed it to Haohuaxing.

Hao Huaixing, who had been looking forward to the delicious branches, began to hesitate when he saw the delicious branches delivered to his mouth. He looked at Jiang Cheng hesitantly, not knowing whether to eat it or not.

"Eat it, this is for you."

"Good or bad!"

Seeing that Jiang Cheng finally agreed, Haohuaxing immediately bit the branch handed over by Jiang Cheng and swallowed it into his stomach in two or three bites. He licked his lips with anticipation in his eyes, and it was obvious that he did not eat well.

"Listen to me, Good Bad Star. Next, I will take you to my home, where you can live with everyone. But there is one thing: you must not attack the sun coral again. If you can do that, I will give you branches to eat every day. How about that?"

Good or Bad Star lowered its head and thought for a while, hmm... it seems feasible. It just wants to eat the branches of the sun coral. If it can eat it without fighting or attacking, there is naturally no need for it to attack.

"Good and Bad!" Haohuaxing nodded, agreeing to Jiang Cheng's proposal.

"Very good, Good or Bad Star, now we have a deal. As a reward for the deal, this branch is yours."

Jiang Cheng produced a sun coral branch from somewhere and handed it to Haobaxing.

"Good and Bad!" Good and Bad Star nodded, quickly took the branch and started to eat it.

Jiang Cheng was satisfied. With just two coral branches, Good and Bad Star began to learn how to communicate with people. It was really a good deal.

Good and Bad Star had never had contact with humans before, and did not know how to get along with humans. Achieving effective communication was the first step between the two sides.

The premise of communication is that the other party will listen to what you say.

After Jiang Cheng's operation, even if the good and bad stars cannot be constructed, if you think carefully, you can figure out that if you listen to the other person quietly, you can get the logic of delicious coral branches.

Only with this logic can there be follow-up.

Fortunately, Pokémon are much smarter than ordinary animals. If it were cats and dogs, this process would take a long time.

Especially cats, let’s not talk about the stupid ones!

After agreeing with Good and Bad Star again to put it into the Poké Ball and treat him to a big meal when they arrived at the hot springs, Jiang Cheng put Good and Bad Star into the Poké Ball and quickly ran towards the furniture market.

Frosty the Frog is different from other Pokémon, it was born in an environment with a strong atmosphere of life such as the kitchen and the snack room. At the same time, due to its physique, the coveting of the outside environment makes it extremely insecure, especially after just arriving at the hot spring house, everything is strange, strange people, strange Pokémon. Even though Jiang Cheng used the ice cream machine to give Frosty the Frog a unique position in the hot spring house, the uneasiness in his heart is not something that can be easily eliminated.

It takes time to build trust, it takes time to understand each other, and it takes even more time to develop a sense of belonging.

On this basis, Jiang Cheng had to consider finding a relatively small bed for Frost Milk Fairy that had sufficient safety and shelter so that she could feel at ease, so that she could have a safe enough psychological haven in this hot spring hall to help her get through this difficult period of getting along.

This kind of nest is not difficult to find. There are many Pokémon nests in home furnishing stores that specialize in serving such needs. You should know that Pokémon also have their own personalities and emotions, and the nests used for them to rest must be suitable for the gender of the Pokémon. Shy and introverted children will naturally need more personal space. For home furnishing stores, Jiang Cheng's requirements are not at all harsh.

Chapter 61: A Small Storm

"I'm back." Along with the creaking door and the fiery red sunset, Jiang Cheng finally returned to the hot spring hotel.

Boom!

There was a loud splashing sound as the Magikarp leaped in the water, welcoming Jiang Cheng's arrival.

"I'm back, Magikarp. Wait a moment and the meal will be served soon."

Passing by the corridor and looking underwater, I saw the sun corals surrounding the magic corals swaying happily underwater, looking very contented.

When I opened the main door of the hot spring hall, I saw the Frosty Fairy on the bar counter waving at me happily: "Mama~"

"How are you, are you having a good time, Fairy Frost?"

"Ma~"

Looks like he's having a happy time.

But some people are not so happy.

"Ghost--" Gastly suddenly appeared from nowhere, ran in front of Jiang Cheng, and complained to Jiang Cheng with a sad face. The main object of the accusation was Frostmilk.

"Gars—Ghost—"

Gastly cried to Jiang Cheng, and his main complaint was how he had battled wits and courage with Frostmilk in the afternoon, and how Frostmilk remained unmoved despite his many requests, and how pitiful it was that it couldn't even have a bite of ice cream.

Jiang Cheng did not immediately believe Gastly's words, but turned to ask Frostmilk: "Is this really the case?"

"Mama, Mama!" After hearing Gastly's words, Frosty the Fairy, who felt that she had suffered a great injustice, immediately waved her little hands to explain the whole thing to Jiang Cheng.

It’s amazing that Jiang Cheng can now understand what Pokémon is saying.

He is becoming more and more adapted to this amazing body.

"Mama...Mama!!" Little Frost Fairy's eyes were red with grievance. Of course, her face was already red.

After listening to Frosty Milk Fairy's narration, Jiang Cheng roughly understood what happened. In fact, he could guess what happened with his toes. Having tasted the sweetness, Gastly must love food like ice cream very much, especially now that he has a magical machine that can produce ice cream. Gastly can't help himself. After eating one meal, he wants two, and after eating two meals, he wants a three.

After Jiang Cheng left, Gastly found Frosty the Milkman to ask for ice cream as expected. Thank God he knew the rules that Jiang Cheng mentioned. Frosty the Milkman naturally agreed. Giving others sweet happiness is Frosty the Milkman's pleasure, so he gave Gastly a full cup.

Gastly finished the new portion of ice cream quickly and found Frosty the Frost again. This time, Frosty the Frost again filled a large cup.

Then the third time, the fourth time...

After the sixth cup, Frosty would no longer agree to give Gastly ice cream - this was Jiang Cheng's advice, even for Pokémon, they couldn't eat too much ice cream as it would be bad for the body.

Frosty the Milkman loved this job very much. On her first day at work, she naturally took Jiang Cheng's instructions very seriously and there was absolutely no room for any compromise. Gastly had already eaten too much ice cream and couldn't eat any more.

After that, Gastly, who could no longer get ice cream, chose to complain to Jiang Cheng, wanting to fight for the right to enjoy unlimited ice cream.

Jiang Cheng did not scold Gastly immediately, but asked Gastly again: "What exactly happened today? I want Gastly to tell me again."

“Gass————” Gastly looked embarrassed.

Lying is a very difficult thing for Pokémon. It's not that they can't, but that they don't want to.

Pranks can be fun, but deception cannot.

Lying is something that comes almost naturally to humans, but for Pokémon, lying is something they are unwilling to do from the bottom of their hearts.

Master Qingtang makes a judgment here: Pokémon is good, humans are bad.

Especially looking at Jiang Cheng's expression, Gastly knew that the other party had discovered it.

“Gars Gastly————” Helplessly, he could only tell the whole story again.

In this way, the original appearance of the incident was restored, no one was favored, and Master Jiang became a master of keeping things balanced.

Seeing Gastly's performance, Jiang Cheng was somewhat relieved. Although this kid was a quality player and was as dirty as a pile during the fight, he had good intentions. Jiang Cheng was mentally prepared for Gastly to lie. He would ask many times and find loopholes in Gastly's narration and ask again based on these loopholes.

Once you tell a lie, you have to cover it up with countless lies. However, in the process of constantly perfecting the lie, the more complicated the lie, the easier it is to make mistakes.

Jiang Cheng was pleased with Gastly's performance, which saved him from having to use such harsh educational methods.

Now that the incident has been restored, it is time to deal with it and communicate.

Jiang Cheng first asked the victim, Frostmilk, "As a victim, what kind of punishment does Frostmilk want Gastly to receive?"

Gastly didn't mean to frame Frosty, but wanted to get himself an ice cream by making the complaint.

But this behavior has indeed caused harm to Frosty Milk Fairy, and as a victim, it is very reasonable for her to make such a request.

Frosty the Frost, who was originally a little angry and anxious because she was wronged, looked a little embarrassed when she was asked how to deal with Gastly who wished for her. Being kind by nature, she really couldn't think of any way to punish the other party. Perhaps she was not anxious about whether Gastly should be punished, but about her own image in Jiang Cheng's heart.

"Mm..."

"Can't think of it? In that case, I have a plan."

Jiang Cheng looked back at Gastly and said, "Since you have framed Frostmilk, you have to help her. It just so happens that I came back today and prepared a surprise for you two. Now, Gastly, I will use it as your punishment."

Jiang Cheng closed his eyes and took out a big box from the system warehouse: "Inside is Flutter Hair, Frosty Milk Fairy, and Gastly's new home. The previous home is a bit small for you, so I bought some new and nice ones at the home furnishing store."

The first is Zhen Yifa’s nest. Although Zhen Yifa never sleeps in her own nest at night, as the strongest person in the family, she can do without this thing, but you cannot not buy it.

The second is Gastly. Gastly usually sleeps on the urn. Jiang Cheng specially bought a small nest suitable for Gastly so that Gastly can sleep comfortably in it.

Then there is Frost Milk Fairy.

"Originally I was planning to assemble it myself, but now I'll be in charge, and Gastly, you'll be in charge of building Frosty's nest as your punishment. How about that?"

"Ghost——" Gastly nodded with a bitter face. Originally, it thought that it was going to be severely punished, but now it was just assembling a nest, which was not so bad.

Seeing Gastly's expression, Jiang Cheng comforted him softly, "The purpose of punishing you is not to punish you, but to remind you that you cannot frame your friends. Do you understand? Gastly?"

"You've already hurt Little Frosty before. Helping her build a shack is your apology. Otherwise, Gastly, don't forget that the ice cream machine belongs to Frosty. If I want to eat ice cream, I have to ask her for it. You don't want to be unable to eat ice cream in the future, do you?"

"Ghost!!"

Upon hearing that he might not be able to eat ice cream, Gastly immediately perked up and became very motivated, wishing he could build the other person's nest right away.

"Then you should come and watch over it, Little Frost Fairy. As this is your own little nest, your opinion is very important."

"Mom!!" Hearing that she could have her own little nest, Little Frost Fairy was very excited at the moment, and immediately raised her two little hands to show her strength.

A small crisis of trust was quietly resolved.

"So the first step is..."

It doesn't take much effort to assemble the nest itself, which is why Jiang Cheng is willing to give it to Gastly. However, for Gastly, he can only rely on his long tongue to work, which makes him sweat profusely. I think, seeing Gastly working so hard, Frosty's resentment towards Gastly can be alleviated a lot.

Just as Jiang Cheng was thinking this, he saw Frosty the Frost rubbing her hands towards Gastly, who was panting with his tongue out, and putting a small piece of cream into its mouth.

After tasting the extremely sweet Frosty Cream, Gastly's originally tired expression instantly brightened, and it seemed as if all the fatigue from rolling up things to build the nest was swept away.

Looking at Gastly's happy smile, Frostmilx also laughed.

Jiang Cheng shook his head secretly, it seemed that he was worrying too much.

Before I knew it, this book will be on the shelves, and my execution time has also arrived (tears)

This can be regarded as a review of this book, and a phased result of my previous efforts. I sincerely hope that everyone can support it. I don't plan to continue reading it, and I sincerely hope that everyone can give a first order of ten cents to give me a little confidence in this flop.

While writing this book, I would like to thank all the readers for their friendly discussions. Of course, I will kill any unfriendly ones. Many readers' messages are quite interesting, and some readers have expressed their doubts in the book reviews. In short, it is an atmosphere of discussion, which really makes me happy and I am very grateful to everyone.

The pace of this book so far is a slow pace centered on farming, which is also the Pokémon theme I personally want to write about. Using Alola, the only country without an alliance, as the background, I want to write a story about Pokémon supporting and respecting each other and living a good life together.

I also sincerely hope and thank everyone for supporting genuine subscriptions.

At the same time, I would like to thank the fans who invested in this book when it was in its infancy, as well as Iris and Ferdinand, REKI666, Jumping into the Sea to Avoid the Rain, Ketchup, Mr. L, Pen Automatic Drawing, The Sense of Existence That Cannot Be Found, Salty Lemon, Cihuabieting, Belial, Pavlov, and Sai Ling for their support for this book. Thank you very much.

Finally, thank you editor Suanzi Ge, you are the second parent of my writing career!

Without going into further detail, I would like to thank everyone for their support and hope that you will continue to enjoy this story.

Go go go!!

Chapter 62: Life needs a sense of ritual

I've been busy for a long time and I'm hungry. Now that things have come to this, let's eat first.

Today, Jiang Cheng does not plan to feed the elves, but plans to cook to celebrate. After all, it has been prepared for more than a month, and tomorrow is the opening day. No matter what, he has to eat something good today.

Life still needs some sense of ritual.

Frosty Milk Fairy was very satisfied with her little nest. The small opening and the internal space that could not be seen by the outside world made her feel very safe. The cream on the opening was scraped into the glass jar by Jiang Cheng with a small wooden scraper.

When it comes to living, you have to be thrifty!

This cream can be used to make desserts, it will definitely taste good.
