Chapter 253 Seeking Help from Xiao Qingmei
Chapter 253 Seeking Help from Xiao Qingmei
"As long as you're all alright, that's all that matters."
Without the slightest hesitation, the homeroom teacher interrupted Xuan Mingtian, while also expressing his concern for them.
Well, Xuan Mingtian was extremely happy about his homeroom teacher's concern.
但~
He didn't seem to understand the topic of their conversation.
"Uh... Class teacher, thank you for your concern, but everything has been taken care of. That's why I was thinking of going back to school today."
"By the way, I noticed there are tables set up all over the playground. When I passed by, I heard students from other classes say that it's some kind of trade fair?"
After calming himself down, Xuan Mingtian first thanked his homeroom teacher. Then they started talking about the news he had received from Han Paopao.
"Alright, alright, you can all go back to your seats. I'll repeat it again, since this was announced to the entire college on Monday."
Looking at the group of students standing there, I felt obligated to explain this to the students who were unaware of the situation, as a teacher.
For example, the few people who are walking in from the classroom door.
In no time, the classroom returned to silence, and the students' attention was once again focused on their homeroom teacher.
"Classmates, for this event organized by the school, our class has 5 booths. The items we can trade are quite varied, including spirit stones (water stones, fire stones, and various other types), resource cards, and all sorts of small items."
Each class will stay at their own stall. The other students can go to other classes and choose items they like to trade.
The college will have 10 booths, giving students more options. Similarly, students can put small items at their class's booth, and what they can exchange for will depend on the other student's preferences.
The homeroom teacher spoke at length, then took a sip from his thermos and continued, "Class, now let's bring our small items to the podium. We'll put them together at the stall and trade them later."
As soon as he finished speaking, the students, carrying their spatial backpacks, lined up in an orderly fashion and walked to the side of the podium.
In no time, the students brought out all sorts of items, including elf cards, game cartridges, miniature ceramic elves, elf dolls, and small quantities of water and fire stones.
There was everything imaginable; it was almost dazzling to look at.
After the students had mostly sold out their stalls, Xuan Mingtian softly called to his friends, "Xiao Gang and Bin, what are you planning to take out?"
Uh~
Upon hearing this, not only Xiao Gangbinzi, but even Xuanwu Ye was rendered speechless.
Why is this happening?
To be honest, all of them, including their respective elves, have sufficient resources every week, but it's precisely because of something Xuan Mingtian said before.
In short: abundant resources mean that both Pokémon and humans can grow stronger much faster. Don't talk about whether it's a waste or not, because the amount of training our Pokémon and we receive is more than double that of others.
Moreover, even if hidden injuries occur during this training, as long as the body receives healing energy that evening, the person will be lively and energetic again the next morning.
Therefore, I'm not afraid of not having enough resources, I'm afraid of using up all the resources.
Therefore, considering Xuan Mingtian's words, the people in the small courtyard could be said to have used up all the resources every week.
However, there are two exceptions...
"Brother Tian, I'm speechless. You shouldn't be telling me and Brother Gang about this. You know we're always broke by the end of the month."
Well, after hearing Yang Bin say that, the three of them all fixed their gazes on Xiao Qingmei, with an expression that resembled that of a goldfish encountering a little girl.
"Uh, big brothers, why are you all looking at me like that?"
The clever and quick-witted Qingmei, after meeting the gazes of the three men, had already roughly guessed what they were thinking.
That is, they want to squeeze a little bit of resources out of her to use for setting up a street stall.
Speaking of this, we have to explain it again. One of these two special cases is our little Qingmei.
The resources she received each week were the same as those for Xuan Mingtian and the others.
But~
Her current situation is that she has resources but nowhere to spend them.
Leaving aside Pichu, who often plays with her, there are the other freeloaders in the small courtyard. Although they don't have many training resources (mainly because these freeloaders don't even have the concept of training in their minds), they won't go hungry.
So Xiao Qingmei spends most of her time playing with them, rather than training them.
Therefore, with the resources she has accumulated over time, she can be considered a small-time rich woman.
"Ahem~ Little Qingmei, could you help your big brother out? You know, Mom has already given the order. Uncle Xiao will be providing all the resources, and as for pocket money, if we buy a small island, we'll only have money to spend next year from the Dewen Company's dividends. So…"
Alright, Xuan Mingtian doesn't need to say more about this. There's the compensation from Devon Company this year, and the compensation promised by the alliance for the weekend incident.
Even if you do find a nice island, you still need to build structures and so on after buying it.
It's fair to say that after calculating his savings expenditures and next year's dividends, he is currently penniless.
Let me do the math for you. Buying a sufficiently large island would cost at least tens of billions, close to a billion. Then there are the buildings on the island: the Indigo Academy, the Trainer School, the orphanage, the money for Mr. Hong to buy Pokémon, and so on.
All of this leads to one conclusion: there is a high probability that Xuanmingtian will become impoverished next year.
"Big brother, I can give it to you, but you have to make it up to me."
As Xiao Qingmei finished speaking, her gaze fixed on Xuan Mingtian.
Well, upon hearing this, he turned to look at Xiaogang and Binzai. The two of them were looking around, whistling incessantly, as if nothing concerned them.
Xuan Mingtian knew that he could no longer rely on the two of them at this moment. Then, he turned his head and glanced around the classroom.
Only then did they realize that the homeroom teacher and classmates were all quietly watching Xuan Mingtian, watching how he borrowed 'money' from Xiao Qingmei.
In an instant, a feeling of social death arose spontaneously in his heart.
"Heh, we're doomed. Everyone's looking over here. No wonder Xiao Gang and Binzi were pretending to be stupid. Tired? Let's destroy it! Since we've already lost all shame, let's just be shameless."
Although Xuan Mingtian thought this way, he still accepted Xiao Qingmei's request: "Okay, okay, big brother promises you. You can just tell me later."
