Elf, I am really a farmer

Chapter 594 Zhou Zhen's Suspicion

As Wen Qi thought about this, he strode towards the gym with the elves he had harvested. Each step he took was firm and powerful, as if he was full of expectations for the future of the gym.

As soon as he returned to the gym, Wen Qi immediately sent the Caterpillars, Green Caterpillars and Unicorn Beetles he had captured today into the small world.

He stood in the small world, looking at these little guys with concern, his eyes full of love, and he kept muttering:

"Everyone, stay inside and take advantage of the time to eat and drink well. Replenish your energy and make sure to eat more good food."

He knew that only by keeping these elves healthy could they break through the qualification limit and improve their qualifications when they evolved later.

"If you are physically weak and still want to break through your aptitude, that's basically a pipe dream. Don't even think about it."

After Wen Qi placed the Pokémon, he strolled to the training ground of the gym.

He looked around and saw several apprentices concentrating on training the elves. Some were patiently teaching the elves the techniques of releasing skills.

Some were doing physical training with the elves, sweating profusely.

Although everyone had just started to cultivate the pincer-tailed scorpions, the differences between them did not seem very big at first glance, but Wen Qi was keenly aware of it.

If we only talk about the love for elves, Zhou Mei and the other three are the most passionate and cherish it the most.

Watching Zhou Mei carefully wiping the wound of the scorpion, Li Geng watched the scorpion's every move intently, while Huang Ming whispered to the scorpion to encourage it.

Wen Qi was not surprised. After all, this was the first elf they had. If it were him,

When I first got my first Pokémon, the excitement and cherishment I felt were even greater than theirs.

Watching the apprentices training, Wen Qi started to ponder again.

He provided the students with green-qualified Butterfree and Beedrill, on the one hand because he did not want the students from poorer families to have their strength limited to the advanced level.

Moreover, the evolution of the Scorpion to the Dragon King Scorpion must reach level 40. Although the minimum qualification of their Scorpion is yellow, it can be achieved in theory.

But it takes too long, and if the gym is challenged by others during this period, the students will be of no help at all.

Wen Qi was still counting on them to help him deal with those challengers. If he waited until the scorpion evolved, it would be too late.

On the other hand, this is not given for free, it is provided for a fee, which is fair. The students put in the effort and the dojo provides resources, and they work together.

Wen Qi originally planned to tell them about this right now, but then he changed his mind and realized that since the evolution has not been successful yet, there is no point in telling them now. He would just tell them after the success.

Wen Qi greeted the students and left. He still had to prepare the energy cubes to trade with Zhou Zhen.

He walked hurriedly, but his mind was busy. He was thinking about the formula of the energy cube and how to mix it so that the elves would have a great increase in strength after eating it.

Then he thought about the students' training progress, which students had made obvious progress, and which ones still needed to work harder. There were so many things to do in the dojo, but nothing could be neglected.

A few days passed in a flash, and it was the transaction day agreed upon by Wen Qi and Zhou Zhen.

They chose to meet in that quiet and secluded clearing in the forest. The surrounding area was shaded by green trees with lush branches and leaves, like a natural wall that separated this place from the noise outside.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting sparkling spots of light on the grass. When the wind blows, the spots of light sway back and forth like a group of naughty elves.

Wen Qi arrived early, hoping that the transaction would go smoothly, after all, this might bring some new spirits to this transaction.

He put his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker and tapped his fingers lightly, making a slight "tapping" sound, revealing a bit of anxiety.

After a while, Zhou Zhen appeared at the edge of the clearing. He walked over with big strides, and every step he took made the dead branches and leaves under his feet "crunch".

He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were shrewd. He glanced at Wen Qi and spoke first in a loud voice:

"Master Wen, long time no see! I'm not late, and I didn't keep you waiting."

Wen Qi raised the corner of his mouth, smiled, and went up to him and said, "Boss Zhou, I just got here not long ago too. Your timing is pretty accurate."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, but they each had their own little plans in mind.

After the pleasantries, Zhou Zhen immediately walked forward and carefully arranged the specially made Poké Balls neatly.

Zhou Zhen pointed at the Poké Ball, a little proud on his face, and said:

"Brother Wen, I spent a lot of effort to get these 10 large milk cans. You know that large milk cans are hard to find and the price on the market has always been high.

The ones I gave you are of absolutely top quality, and each one is about half a million, which is the same as the market price. I didn’t ask you for a penny more.”

As he spoke, he raised his chin slightly, his eyes showing a desire to be praised.

Wen Qi walked forward, squatted down, stared at the Poké Ball carefully, stood up after a while, nodded slightly, and said calmly:

"Boss Zhou, I trust you. This big milk can is exactly what I want. Thank you for making this trip."

His tone was neither hot nor cold, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.

Then, Zhou Zhen took out a small electronic device from his arms, fiddled with it for a few times, turned his head to look at Wen Qi, and said with a smile:

"Master Wen, as agreed, five million has been transferred to your account. Take a look."

Wen Qi took out his phone and checked it. After confirming that he had received the money, he raised his head, looked at Zhou Zhen firmly, and said:

"Brother Zhou, this time, the 10 million deal is done. Happy cooperation!"

The two men stretched out their hands and shook hands. This handshake showed both tacit understanding and a hint of competition.

After the transaction, Zhou Zhen didn't rush to leave. He frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then asked:

"Master Wen, let me ask you one more question. Will the next transaction be in a month?"

Wen Qi folded his hands over his chest, nodded, and said:

"Yes, Boss Zhou, it will be one month later."

"Then Master Wen, what kind of elf do you want this time?"

"As I said last time, Rotom and Nightwatch, the three great families are also fine, but there is no limit on qualifications."

Zhou Zhen reached out and touched his chin, curiosity in his eyes, and continued:

"Master Wen, I'm confused. You are so powerful. Although these elves are rare, their talents are only yellow at best. What use can they be to you?"

As he spoke, he stared straight at Wen Qi, trying to dig some answers out of his eyes.

Wen Qi's mind skipped a beat, but he didn't show any flaws on his face. He smiled lightly, with a shrewd look in his eyes that was not easily noticed by others, and said:

"Boss Zhou, just leave it alone. I am useful."

His tone was quite relaxed, but there was an unquestionable tone in his words, which made people dare not ask any more questions.

Zhou Zhen was wondering in his heart, could it be that the other party had a way to improve his qualifications?

If this is true, it would be amazing!

Thinking of this, his heart beat faster, and he felt excited but also a little nervous.

He also understood that even if he asked, Wen Qi would not tell him about such confidential matters, and it might even make him unhappy and affect future cooperation.

So he laughed dryly and said:

"Okay, Master Wen, since you don't want to talk about it, I won't ask any more questions. I'll go back and discuss the next transaction with my father, and I'll definitely prepare it for you."

Wen Qi nodded slightly and said:

"Then I'll trouble you, Boss Zhou."

After saying that, the two of them each took their things and walked off in different directions.

As Zhou Zhen walked, he looked back, his eyes full of confusion, and muttered softly:

"What on earth is Wen Qi planning..."

Wen Qi didn't hesitate and went straight back with Miltank's Poké Ball.
