Pokemon Life

Chapter 36, Procurement Task



[Pang Keding Guild, morning meeting]

The three rows of elves have all stood solemnly and listened carefully to the important speech of the chief steward, the note parrot, and no one dared to neglect it.

Early in the morning, the note parrot was obviously a little irritable, as if he had something important to announce.

He was pacing back and forth with his wings on his back:

"Ah, I heard that there is a legend that is very popular recently."

"It's so hot that you don't bother to work, and you all gather together to talk about the world with nothing to do. Is there such a thing?"

Charmander couldn't help but feel sensitive when he heard the word "legend", and even Pikachu couldn't help but pricked up his ears.

All the elves first looked back at the last row.

Especially that little Charmander was the protagonist of the legend, which made the two little ones break into cold sweats.

The next moment, all the elves looked at the big mouth in the guild and shouted explosive bombs.

The roaring bomb also broke into a cold sweat:

"It all depends on what I do. I'm very busy. I don't have the time to tell such nutritious legends!"

"My mouth is too loud, it's none of my business!!"

The musical note parrot reprimanded with great dissatisfaction:

"Ahem, listen to me!"

"I don't care if it's the Legend of the Seven-Tails, the Legend of the Eight-Tails, or the Legend of the Nine-Tails, just give me a good job!!"

"If I catch anyone who is lazy again and talks about things together, especially those who talk about some legends every day, I will severely punish them!!!"

After all, in the eyes of the big capitalist Note Parrot, there is only work, and the labor value of guild members is higher than anything else.

The workers should work hard, not to mention that except for the two little ones standing here, the rest are all old workers in the guild. It is forbidden to be lazy and have fun talking about mountains and other things.

Elder Elf: "Yes, we will work harder!"

"No more lazy talk!"

"That's pretty much it." The note parrot was instantly satisfied:

"Then finally, shout the guild slogan with me, no one can be lazy!"

"Yes~" (Elves)

"One, work hard!"

"Two, never run away!"

"Three, smile all the way!"

"Four, the task is listed on the task list! Remember to start the task!"

Hey, hey, hey, another sentence was added to the strange guild slogan. The two little ones were surprised at the same time. They originally thought that there were only three sentences.

"The meeting is over——"

The elves dispersed one after another and were busy working on their own.

Except for the two little ones who have to stay in place to wait for the next round of guidance from the Grand Steward, the Note Parrot, the other elder elves are more energetic than before.

"Hey, you two apprentices, come here, today's training begins now!"

What will be today’s task?

I thought I was going to the bulletin board to receive a high-level commission, but I didn't expect that today's training would be even simpler than yesterday's job of guessing footprints.

It can be said to be the easiest task from the beginning to now.

Progress: Refresher Lesson 3

Details: Be familiar with the guild’s food purchasing system and learn about the Hidden Dragon Store.

On behalf of the guild, go to the Hidden Dragon Shop in Treasure Town and buy 10 perfect apples.

General Instructor: Chief Steward Note Parrot

Reward: After completing the training, you will receive 50 guild contribution points.

Note: Purchasing funds are provided by the guild, and the perfect apple purchased must be the freshest, juiciest, and most delicious of the day.

The two little ones: "So today's training is to go to the town to buy apples. Is it that simple?"

In fact, it is not that simple.

The reason I bought the Perfect Apple this time was because President Fatty was out of snacks.

President Pang Keding loves to eat perfect apples the most. He is extremely strict in selecting perfect apples, including color, taste, juiciness, freshness, etc.

Once you buy a bad fruit or a perfect apple with flaws, the president will get furious and eventually deduct the task reward.

In short, daily purchasing tasks like this are usually the responsibility of the lowest-level veteran buck-toothed raccoon dog.

Considering that this was already the simplest task, equivalent to running errands, Charmander volunteered:

"Excuse me, after we complete it, can we use the remaining time to collect the tasks on the bulletin board? There is only one simple task every day. It is too slow to accumulate contribution points."

Charmander just hoped to go to the big library as soon as possible to investigate his life experience, but was misunderstood by Musical Note Parrot that he loved working very much and was willing to work overtime for the guild.

"What, I didn't expect you two to offer to work overtime freely?"

"Workers should work overtime like you all the time. Of course it's great!"

"But you must complete the procurement task first, and then you can work overtime freely. There must be no mistakes in this task. Do you understand?"

The two little ones nodded obediently.

"Go ahead and hurry up!"

How can we do without the classic POSS before each mission? As an apprentice expedition team, Charmander and Pikachu of course have to high-five each other and shout the slogan:

"Starry Night Adventure Team, come on, come on, come on!"

"Let's head towards the Hidden Dragon Shop in Treasure Town!!"

————Purchasing dividing line————

The warm sunshine shines on Treasure Town.

The elves in the town are coming and going. There are long queues in front of some shops, some shops have just opened their roller blinds, and some shop owners are lazy and sleeping because there are not many customers.

Transform into a hidden dragon store,

It is a stall with a fixed flow of customers every day. It is a tent built in the shape of a giant hidden dragon.

As the largest grocery store in Treasure Town, the Hidden Dragon brothers who run the store get up very early every day and complete the stocking before the sun rises.

The groceries purchased are basically the freshest of the day, and the items purchased are different every day.

Prices and grades change every day, which can't stop visitors from all over the place from visiting. What's more, the elves also have to make a living. This kind of grocery store is equivalent to a daily supermarket in the human world.

Charmander and Pikachu didn't waste much time on the road, and almost went directly to the Hidden Dragon store.

Just after sending away a group of customers, the Hidden Dragon Brothers spotted two little ones from afar.

There are two bosses in total. The Hidden Dragon boss on the left counter is dark green in color and has the patterns that a normal Hidden Dragon should have.

The Hidden Dragon on the counter on the right is a bit rare. It is born purple, that is, the Shining Hidden Dragon, and the pattern is different.

This is like a businessman advertising in his own image.

The Green Hidden Dragon boss sells general sundries, food, tree fruits, and common props.

The Flash Hidden Dragon boss sells rare skills, incredible jade, rare props, etc.

When the two little ones came to the counter, they politely said hello, but they didn't know that the legend of the Nine Tails had already spread in the town's business district.

Charmander: "Good morning, two bosses. We are purchasing on behalf of the Fat Cat Guild and need 10 perfect apples."

Pikachu: "Please give us the freshest, tastiest, and best color. Boss, we put the money here~"

The Hidden Dragon bosses knew what was going on as soon as they heard about buying perfect apples, because the Fat Keding Guild regularly sent elves to purchase them every time, and they had long been used to it.

"Ah, isn't the buck-toothed civet here to purchase this time? 10 perfect apples are no problem, guaranteed to be the freshest!"

After saying that, the green invisible dragon boss took the gold coins and immediately turned around to prepare.

Unexpectedly, at the last moment, the owner of the Purple Transformation Dragon suddenly asked the Charmander without any warning:

"Everyone is talking about the Legend of the Nine-Tails recently. Are you the human who is trying to atone for his sins?"

【!】Charmander:!

"It just so happens that humans are very rare,"

"I have a lot of rare props that were just purchased today, and I would like to ask you humans to take care of them."

It seems that the Legend of the Nine Tails has become very popular in the town. The purchasing mission of the two little ones will continue, so stay tuned ~
