I run an orphanage in the Pokémon world.

Immediately afterwards, Snorlax patted Munchlax, and Munchlax rushed to Tengshu's side, then took out two items and handed them to Tengshu.

"Isn't it a feather this time?" Tengshu was a little surprised, because this time the little Snorlax gave him two rather uniquely shaped stones that looked shimmering and beautiful, but Tengshu didn't know what kind of stones they were.

However, the vines were still put away.

Anyway, he didn't expect to get anything good from Snorlax after helping it. Even if Snorlax gave him some berries, the vine would happily accept them.

Seeing that Tengshu had taken the things, the little Snorlax happily ran back.

Tengshu looked at the little Snorlax's back and couldn't help but chuckle. This little guy was really interesting, adorably silly, but a bit timid. And the albinism had taken its toll. Tengshu had just seen clearly that the little Snorlax's eyes were all pink. Although it looked cute, Tengshu knew that this was a pathological manifestation of albinism.

While albinism causes the skin and hair of patients to turn white, it does not make them more beautiful; rather, it is a form of torment.

Snorlax wobbled along with the little Snorlax to the wall, then squatted down, let the little Snorlax climb onto its back, and then carried the little Snorlax out.

Then Snorlax climbed out on its own.

Teng Shu smiled and shook his head. It seemed that this little Snorlax might be Snorlax's child.

"Time to eat." Teng Shu didn't think much of it and continued eating his meal. He hadn't eaten yet. Generally speaking, cooks either eat their fill while cooking or eat later. There's nothing that can be done about it.

During the meal, Tengshu and Locke sat at one table, with Kou Dahua and Lada sitting next to them.

These two elderly Pokémon carried an indescribable aura. Although the Bellsprout didn't need to eat normally, the Vine Tree gave it some Grass-type Pokémon nutrient solution when it came.

Rada, on the other hand, is not picky about food and will eat anything available, but she has a small appetite and can take a long time to eat a single tree fruit.

"Rattata, Bellossom, is there anything you want to get?" Tengshu asked the two Pokémon beside him, then casually took out the stone that Snorlax had given him, put it on the table, and showed it to Locke.

It's hard to say whether Locke would know.

Lada and the speechless flower shook their heads, and Tengshu had no solution either.

These two Pokémon are often listless, and their favorite thing to do is to bask in the sun and space out, as if they are reminiscing about the past.

When Krookodile was still around, they could read books together. But since Krookodile left, these two Pokémon have become taciturn, and Tengshu can only feel a deathly aura around them.

Locke didn't have a good solution either, after all, talk is not invincible, and there are some things that can't be explained away.

“Dean, this stone of yours...it looks somewhat like jade.” Locke looked at the jade stone that Teng Shu had placed on the table with some surprise. Teng Shu glanced at it.

Looking at them now, these stones do indeed have a certain translucency.

Chapter 174 Evergreen City Special Office

Tengshu was quite pleased with the money the little Snorlax had given him for food. Although it didn't look like a valuable stone, Tengshu still placed it next to Diancie's Pink Diamond.

"Tianxi? But this little guy is still sealed away." Teng Shu looked at the pink diamond in the cabinet, his eyes filled with thought.

This stone from Tianxi is still kept in Tengshu's cabinet. It's arguably the second most valuable item in the entire orphanage, after the medical pod.

However, as of now, Teng Shu has no clue how to unseal Diancie.

After releasing the stones that Munchlax had given him, Tengshu sat in his office and continued studying the knowledge points for his driver's license exam. Although he couldn't help but want to complain while studying, he still tried his best to memorize them.

Perhaps it was because he had relived the joy of memorizing texts from his student days after so many days, but Teng Shu started yawning in the afternoon.

"This weather is so cold, it makes me want to sleep." Teng Shu rubbed his arms. Even though the air conditioning was on all the time in the orphanage, the temperature was still not rising, and it was expected that it would continue to drop in temperature.

I just don't know how much the temperature will drop.

"Hmm?" Teng Shu was just about to watch a few silly videos to relax when he saw that his work email had received a new email. Teng Shu opened it and took a look.

Notice Regarding the Monthly Cleaning Campaign in Changqing City

In order to thoroughly study and implement the spirit of the alliance meeting and promote...

The following decision is hereby made.

All government agencies within the alliance should conduct monthly cleaning activities to ensure the cleanliness and tidiness of their areas. The Changqing City Alliance Office will regularly assess the hygiene conditions of government agencies within its jurisdiction...

"What a hassle." Teng Shu's lips twitched. He found that the Pokémon League liked to do these kinds of things from time to time, and they even played with a pun, something like "Moon Sweeper," which left Teng Shu speechless.

The languages ​​in the Pokémon world are somewhat different, but Tengshu's starter pack contained relevant knowledge, so Tengshu could also see the pun the League was using.

However, Teng Shu felt that his workload was relatively light. After all, although the welfare home was also a subordinate institution of the alliance, it was ultimately just an affiliated institution, so his workload was much lighter.

"Monthly sweeping, monthly sweeping, but my orphanage doesn't need special monthly sweeping." Teng Shu glanced at the email and then closed his mailbox.

His welfare home is cleaned every day, and to be honest, there's only one main road that can be considered a road. The rest is all natural environment. Unless the auditors at the alliance's office point to the fallen leaves on the soil and say that the vines aren't cleaned properly, they don't really care about the vines.

Moreover, he does the cleaning every day, and the old man cleans once every night before going to bed, which Teng Shu is aware of.

Thinking of the old man, Teng Shu walked out of the office, intending to talk to him.

It wasn't to remind the old man to clean more thoroughly, as he always does so very diligently. Rather, Teng Shu wanted to remind him of this notice, as some people might come over with questions.

After all, the media usually follows behind leaders.

"...For fruit trees like these, when maintaining them, we mainly check the roots to see if they have any pests or fungal infections." When Tengshu found the old man, the old man was giving a lecture on tree planting to Dark Raven. Looking at Dark Raven's clear and naive eyes, Tengshu wanted to laugh.

Tengshu had originally intended to cultivate some hobbies in the little crow, but unexpectedly, after the crow started planting trees, it caught the old man's eye.

"Could this be considered helping the Dark Raven develop a talent for farming?" Teng Shu watched this scene with great interest, wondering if the Dark Raven could learn it.

As for whether Murkrow likes it or not, Tengshu thinks it probably does, since you can tell just by looking into Murkrow's eyes. They still have that clear, innocent look, without any hint of being a go-to guy.

After all, if you are doing something you really love, then it's not so easy to develop a "workplace vibe." But if you're just working hard to make a living, then naturally you'll develop a "workplace vibe."

"Dean, are you here to see Dark Raven?" The old man spoke for a while before noticing Teng Shu and greeted him with a smile.

"Yes, but Grandpa, your experience with trees is truly unparalleled." Teng Shu smiled and gave the old man a thumbs up. The old man laughed heartily and then waved his hand.

"That's all in the past. I can only say that I'm glad I haven't forgotten my old profession." There was a hint of nostalgia in the old man's eyes. Teng Shu smiled as he looked at the old man.

The old man was in a bad mood most of the time. He only became more normal when he was teaching Dark Raven and working. But once he had free time, he would start to worry and feel sad. Teng Shu knew that the old man was thinking about his lover.

"Grandpa, do you think Dark Raven has any talent for planting trees?" Teng Shu asked deliberately, having already spotted the small patch of lush saplings.

Although it's winter, the plants are growing quite well.

"Very good, Murkrow is very powerful." The old man praised Murkrow with a smile. Murkrow shyly hid its head in its wing. Tengshu smiled and patted Murkrow's little head.

Looking at the saplings, Tengshu counted them; there were a full twenty. This was significantly more than the number Tengshu had given to Darkraven initially. It was clear that Darkraven truly enjoyed planting trees. Tengshu was very satisfied; it seemed he had found a suitable interest for Darkraven for its future.

So, if we calculate it this way, Murkrow will plant trees, Kai will focus on networking, and Abandoned Monkey will be the leader of the team...

"This team composition is getting better and better." Teng Shu left with satisfaction. He had been thinking about how to give the little guys a happier life, and letting them each find their own career seemed like a good choice.

While Teng Shu was happily cooking, in the attic of the orphanage, A-Kai was looking at the laptop in front of him, his eyes flashing with purple light as he typed away on the keyboard.

Akai's eyes reflected the computer screen in front of him.

Chapter 175 Akai's First Order

The clever Casey always unites all the partners around her who can be united, and then they move towards success together. This kind of success is true success.

Akai has always believed in the knowledge passed down by the wise Alakazam in his family, but knowing it is one thing, putting it into practice is another. Akai had tried to do this before, but then he discovered a problem.

It has no partners to unite with.

At that time, he was surrounded by a group of Pokémon who were eager to show off. They would even attack and ostracize other companions because they were too eager to show off. So Kai didn't have many opportunities to cooperate, but Kai never blamed these companions.

Who can expect a group of Pokémon who have to show off to get enough to eat to be considerate of their companions? Besides, in that godforsaken place back then, only Pokémon that were good at showing off were entitled to a normal life.

Ah Kai was not good at showing off and could not compete with his stronger companions. He lived a life of hunger and thirst every day. Moreover, those people at that time only regarded them as commodities and did not regard them as their companions at all.

So Akai chose to escape, to leave that damned place.

Here, Akai found partners he could unite with and trust.

Akai wanted to do something for Tengshu and his companions, so he decided to hold a meeting. After observing Tengshu's actions, he realized that his director wanted to help them find what they wanted to do. So Akai created a website to expand his business and earn some money for the orphanage.

Of course, I only did this after consulting with my partners and receiving definite answers.

However, so far this website hasn't received any orders. If it weren't for the money Ah Kai earns from making videos to keep the website running, it would probably have to shut down by now.

Ah Kai only realized after buying the website that he needed to pay money to maintain its operation and domain name; otherwise, the website address would be gone.

"Hmm?" Akai noticed a red dot on the website. Curious, it clicked on it and was surprised to find that it was an order!

【ID: . 】

[Requirement: Study guidance, junior high school curriculum]

[Payable amount: 50 per day]

It's a very simple order, but it was also arranged by Kai. Although it's simple, the tasks and the price that can be paid are all listed.

Do you offer tutoring or academic guidance? For middle school courses...

Akai fell into deep thought. It had studied on its own for a while, after all, there was a very powerful Alakazam in the house, who had mentioned it before going to fight another powerful Gengar.

Learning is something that every clever Cathy can never stop doing throughout her life.

So, besides doing his own thing, Akai spends his days studying. He's multitasking and has already self-studied junior and senior high school courses.

And the other children at the orphanage...

Akai raised his finger.

Abandoned monkey?

No way, that guy would be good as a boxing coach or martial arts instructor, but teaching junior high school courses is a no-go. Abandoned Monkey simply can't do it.

Ah Kai put his finger down.

Murloc?

No, the Murlocs are busy planting fruit trees to increase their income. This is a project that requires a long initial investment but can generate long-term benefits once it matures. Besides, the Murlocs don't seem to have studied this.

Ah Kai put his fingers down, then thought for a moment, and then put them all down.

Currently, the only person in the orphanage who can do this job is Director Teng Shu, but Director Teng Shu has a lot of things to do every day, so A Kai doesn't want to affect him with this matter. So, if you think about it, it's the only one left.

Akai silently chose to accept the order, since he was idle anyway. However, he probably couldn't communicate with the other party face-to-face, so he decided to teach online. He figured that using a suit of characters would solve the problem.

Life is tough, Kai sighed.

After communicating with the other party, Akai accepted the order. The other party agreed to communicate online. Soon, the camera was turned on, and a girl with long blue hair was looking at the screen curiously. Then she saw a virtual avatar.

"Wow, are you a streamer?" the girl asked excitedly. Looking at the slightly rebellious makeup on the girl's face, Akai didn't show any emotion. He just asked her what courses she wanted to take.

"It's boring." The girl pouted, but still obediently took out her textbook and started asking questions. Kai taught her seriously, even while eating. His seriousness made her take it seriously as well.

When the course ended, Akai received fifty yuan as payment for his work. Looking at the fifty yuan, Akai thought about the money he had earned from making videos before and fell into deep thought.

How come it seems like making videos earns more than this?

However, Kai still put the money away. The original intention of creating this website was not to make money, but because everyone decided to find something to do together to help the dean.

Today was a good start; at least we made some money, even if it was only fifty. But Ah Kai is satisfied, and he believes he can earn more and more in the future.

...

"Hmm? The electricity consumption has increased rather sharply lately." Teng Shu was looking at the welfare home's bill for the month in his office.

Although it is affiliated with the alliance, Tengshu's welfare home still pays its own water and electricity bills, but it also enjoys some subsidies from the alliance, so overall it is still acceptable.

"Uncle Tengshu, is your electricity bill so high every month?" Xiao Zhi was playing a game nearby. Tengshu had given Xiao Zhi the computer in his office to play on. However, Tengshu had just glanced at it and saw that Xiao Zhi was playing a Pokémon trivia game. You could only say that Xiao Zhi was indeed worthy of the name.

"Well, actually, this is still a reduction." Teng Shu didn't think much of it.

Winter has arrived, and the air conditioning in the orphanage is on 24 hours a day, so it's normal for the electricity bill to be a bit higher. Moreover, now that Teng Shu has started drawing comics, he has some surplus money and can save some up, so paying for water and electricity is not a problem.

After paying the water and electricity bills, Teng Shu yawned; it was almost time for bed.

With that in mind, Teng Shu decided to go out for a stroll and check the area around the welfare home.

However, when Tengshu went out, Xiaozhi followed. Tengshu initially did not intend to let Xiaozhi come, since it was very cold outside and it would be troublesome if Xiaozhi caught a cold. But Xiaozhi insisted on coming, so Tengshu did not refuse.

"Wear more clothes," Teng Shu advised, but seeing Xiao Zhi's expression, he still took a down jacket from his own wardrobe for Xiao Zhi.

Chapter 176 Taking Ash on a Night Patrol

"Hiss..." Just as he stepped outside, although Xiao Zhi had prepared himself, he still felt a bone-chilling cold, which made him want to turn back to the dormitory. After all, the weather was really too cold. Xiao Zhi even wondered if a vegetable would freeze solid if he took it out in this weather.

"How are you? Cold, huh?" Teng Shu looked at Xiao Zhi with a smile. Xiao Zhi was not yet the future Master Zhi, but just a child full of enthusiasm and hope for the future.
