Pokémon development strategy

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with his body, Shen Qi felt a little hungry.

Mrs. Hua Jie's dining car basically sells exquisite dim sum with a sweet taste, but Shen Qi prefers salty food.

Turn across the street and you will see hand-pulled pancakes with a variety of fillings that you can freely combine.

Add eggs, ham, chicken fillets, and basic lettuce and cucumber shreds, and it's already quite rich.

Switch to the skill pool interface and silently use the "power of discount".

In fact, Shen Qi knew very well that the test would not produce any effect.

The other party was a small vendor selling hand-pulled pancakes at a stall. After adding various things, the pancake cost 16b.

It's not easy to do business, so you can't bargain arbitrarily. In the end, it's hard to say whether the price is a few billion yuan, which is the effect of the skill of "Power of Discount".

Now when using the "Power of Discount", Shen Qi's main idea is just to try out the process of using this thing.

"Boss, I..."

Dudududu, dududududu read——

Electronic music sounded in Shen Qi's mind, and then a small interface opened to both sides in front of him, with pixel-style character portraits on the opposite side.

[The wild pancake stand owner appeared! ]

???

Shen Qi was quite surprised that the bargaining process was actually presented using the battle process of Pokémon.

Does the small "power of discount" have so much content?

【duel! 】

[Both parties draw their hands to 5 cards]

Suddenly entering the card-playing process, Shen Qi felt that his DNA was about to be messed up.

In fact, the rules of this small game interface are easy to understand. Based on the "power of discount", Shen Qi obtains 5 strategy cards for bargaining, which basically contain some words.

The deck limit is 10 cards, which is much less than regular card games.

but…

Is it necessary to have 10 strategy cards with explanations just to bargain for the price of a pancake?

By thinking about the contents of the five cards you drew, you can directly understand them as the five options of a text adventure game.

[I have old people above me and young children below me]

[I'm starving to death on the roadside]

[How much can you earn from selling a hand-pulled pancake? 】

"I just bought a pancake, what kind of crappy tip is that?!"

Shen Qi quickly realized why his hand was so bad. The reason was that his proficiency in the "Power of Discount" was only 10% of the initial level, so his deck was small and bad.

Players must use the words prompted by the cards in their hands, otherwise... there is actually no punishment, except that the game is over and the "Bargaining Duel" cannot be started again for the same target within a short period of time.

To be honest, this game is not as good as Shen Qi bargaining directly.

Considering that he only had 10% proficiency in the "Power of Discount", it was understandable, so Shen Qi continued with the idea of ​​familiarizing himself with the skill.

That card about "having old people above and young people below" is definitely useless, but it seems there is a strategy card that can be played.

【Buy three】

"Boss, I have two Pokémon over there. How about buying the same hand-pulled pancake for both of them and charging me 36b?"

The hand-pulled pancake I just bought was 16b each, and the price Shen Qi quoted was equivalent to buying three, at 12b each.

"Hey, don't be so harsh on small businesses."

While the stall owner was speaking, the character in the game interface played a card with similar lines.

On the player's side, a progress bar became shorter.

Similar to the health value setting, it is called "fitness". Once this thing is deducted, it means the situation is no longer suitable for bargaining, otherwise there will be a quarrel.

It's Shen Qi's turn, draw a card!

【I won’t buy it! 】

What low EQ card?!

Shen Qi gave up on the spot and played the card he drew in the first round before ending the game. He asked the boss how much money he could make from selling a pancake.

"I can't make much, maybe 3 or 4 billion."

In the end, Shen Qi bought three hand-pulled pancakes, and the unit price was only 1b cheaper.

"Power of Discount", skill proficiency 11%

The somewhat absurd bargaining game ended, but Shen Qi began to pay attention to this skill.

After playing the two cards "Buy Three" and "Ask the Other Party for the Unit Price", a prompt appeared above the opponent's portrait, saying that it was above the bottom line.

What this means is that the stall owner said he could only make three or four billion, but the actual single income was far more than that, and the price estimated based on this was higher than his reserve price.

The cards given by "Power of Discount" now are very bad, and the prompts above the bottom line are complete nonsense, but as the proficiency continues to improve, it is understandable that the quality of the cards will improve, and the assessment of the opponent's bottom line will become clearer.

In the future, modifying a racing car will require purchasing pretty expensive items, so this ability is quite remarkable.

Reaching out his mobile phone to pay the bill, Shen Qi felt a small hard object in his pocket.

When I took it out and checked it, I found it was a folded piece of letter paper with some foreign object wrapped in the middle.

When you open the letter again, a small object in the shape of a pink heart-shaped peach appears before your eyes.

How could an old player not recognize this thing?

"The Crimson Gym's... Crimson Badge?!"

Chapter 277 Ninja's Invitation

“It smells so good…”

The pink badge and letter paper in Shen Qi's hands exuded a faint fragrance.

Walking on the street lined with snacks such as hand-pulled pancake stalls and barbecue stalls, the air is filled with the smell of charcoal and spices. In such an environment, that faint fragrance is still clearly discernible.

You can only get the Pink Badge if you successfully challenge the Crimson Gym. How come there is an extra Pink Badge in your pocket out of nowhere?

It also comes with letter paper...

Opening the letter, I could see an invitation between the lines.

"Please come to the Crimson Gym in three days to discuss racing matters."

this is.

Ah Xing’s invitation?

Shen Qi, who was a little dazed, took out his mobile phone to pay for the shou-pulled pancake, took it back to Madam Hua Jie's food cart, and bought some juice for the Pokémon.

'Good smell'

What was praised was not the pancake, but the pink badge and the fragrance on the letter paper.

As flower-type Pokémon, Miss Skirt is very sensitive to scents, and so is Mrs. Flower Clean.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, Shen Qi handed the two things forward and said, "Feel it, is it a similar fragrance?"

After careful consideration, Mrs. Hua Jie responded by describing it as a cool and mysterious girl style.

It really fits Ah Xing's image.

[Narrator: Madam Hua Jie thought that when a girl like this encounters something she wants but cannot get, her expression must be... ah~~~~]

Shen Qi was too lazy to pay attention to Madam Hua Jie. From what Miss Qun'er said, she felt the same way about the scent.

Pink Badge, Axing's Invitation...

Recalling the touch from behind just now, Jigglypuff didn’t even see the shadow of the person…

A Xing comes from a ninja family and can really do it.

But why did she invite me?

As for the intersection, Shen Qi did communicate with Ah Xing.

In the first regular season of Doll Town, the combination of Miss Skirt, Shen Qi, and Jilly Egg made their debut and surpassed the blockade tactics of the Crossbat and Stinging Jellyfish.

At that time, Ah Xing briefly praised Shen Qi.

Later, in the regular season of Qianhong City, Shen Qi and Pokémon won again. A Xing came to talk in person and gave a higher evaluation.

That conversation accidentally made Shen Qi realize that the cooperation between him and Miss Qun'er was wrong and could not continue. In fact, he should thank her.

Ah Xing did have some recognition of Shen Qi, but as a gym leader, she had seen many outstanding trainers, and Shen Qi didn't think she could be the outstanding one among them.

Miss Qun'er and Jilidan had met Ah Xing, and after hearing what Shen Qi said, they knew there must be some deeper reason why he came to invite her personally.

Otherwise, if Ah Xing contacted the Elf High School, she would definitely be able to get Shen Qi's contact information, and there would be no need to sneakily deliver a paper letter.

"That's right..."

The thing was delivered to Shen Qi's pocket, which means Ah Xing is in Jinhuang City. Can't we just meet in a coffee shop or teahouse to chat?

Or rather, she sent other ninjas from the Crimson Gym.

Since you can send someone to deliver the letter, what's the difference between that and making a phone call...?

Shen Qi doesn't have Ah Xing's contact information, but Ah Xing can definitely get Shen Qi's phone number.

Is it worth going to all this trouble just to give you an extra pink badge?

He really couldn't understand Ah Xing's purpose in doing this, but Shen Qi knew that he would not be harmed.

With Ah Xing's background and strength, there is no need to set up a Hongmen Banquet or other tactic if she wants to harm ordinary drivers from small places.

The place where Shen Qi was invited was not some desolate place, but the serious Qianhong Gym, one of the most important institutions in Qianhong City.

The subsequent itinerary has not been determined. Shen Qi just wants to go wherever there is a suitable regular season. Now that he has received Ah Xing's invitation, he should go to the appointment first. It must be a very important matter.

"Hey, I didn't add her as a friend the last two times we met during the regular season, otherwise I would have just asked her directly."

The strategy level of the script of "Madam, Please Respect Yourself" is only 19%. Madam Hua Jie did not see any scenes from Shen Qi that made her excited later, and the strategy did not progress much.

It is worthy of being a "difficult" level emotional script, which reminds people of "Crazy Doctor". Unless Shen Qi is knocked out by the Jigglypuff or eats the egg, it is difficult to advance the strategy.

With such a low level of strategy, Madam Hua Jie will definitely not be able to score a goal, and there is no need for Shen Qi to take her to Qianhong City.

Mrs. Hua Jie drove the food truck all the way over there, but it might not necessarily lead to better business. It would be better for her to stay in Jinhuang City.

When the regular season starts in a month, Shen Qi will also return here and we will have the same chance to meet.

After bidding farewell to Madam Hua Jie, Shen Qi set out the next day, heading from Jinhuang City to Qianhong City.

When Ah Xing received the letter, the appointment was for three days later, but the day after Shen Qi checked into Qianhong City, the agreed time had still not arrived.

This notice is mysterious, so it would definitely not be appropriate to go to her in advance.

Shen Qi searched for the contact on social media: Qiu Yan

A school beauty in Class B of the first year of high school, a girl that Xiaochun deeply likes.

In terms of outstanding ability, the only students who can compare with Qiu Yan are Xiao Ming and a few others.

On the surface, this ice beauty who has excellent academic performance and a cold temperament is actually a fanatical fan of Ah Xing.

When cheering for Ah Xing in Doll Town, Qiu Yan's crazy and silly fangirl expression completely destroyed her character, so much so that in the second half of the semester after the summer vacation, she half-angrily and half-begging Shen Qi not to tell the inside story.

Shen Qi is not that talkative, so there is no need to offend him.

Now I can use this connection and ask her if she knows anything about the Crimson Gym.

When mentioning the Crimson Gym, Qiu Yan's reply message soon appeared on the phone.

ID Qiuyan: Why are you asking this suddenly?

Shen Qi thought about it, took a photo of the pink badge and sent it to Qiu Yan.

What follows is not a text reply, but a direct voice chat request.

"Hey! Shen Qi, what's wrong with you?!"
