Not a Trainer This Time Chapter 177

 Chapter 177 Our Home

 At five o'clock in the evening, Zach was going to come to the ranch to receive the goods.

 Zhi Shu moved the vegetables and fruits onto the truck with him.

Seeing the excited expression on Naoki's face, Zach looked very surprised: "Why are you so happy suddenly? Did something good happen to you?"

Zhi Shu nodded: "Tomorrow I will save enough money to build a house, and finally I don't have to squeeze in this small wooden house anymore!"

“Oh, that is indeed something worth celebrating.” Zach grinned: “In that case, I will congratulate you in advance!”

 After a brief exchange of greetings, Zach drove away in the large truck.

Zhi Shu returned to the wooden house, put the money he earned today on the desk, and took out the money he had saved in the past few months from the drawer.

"...Well, plus the money in the bank card, I now have a total of 2,153,400 alliance coins on hand. Two million will be used to build a house, and the rest will be used to buy some furniture and equipment depending on the situation. Daily necessities.”

 Zhishu silently considered the next thing in his mind.

 Not only does it cost money to build a house, but I also need a lot of money for the furniture and other items inside.

In addition to these, he also had to buy a batch of wooden barrels to put in the cellar for brewing wine.

And one more thing.

If you plan to run a Pokémon tavern, the tavern must be slightly decorated, purchase a bar, and customize tables, chairs and benches according to the body types of different Pokémon.

 When the nosy brother and sister come over, he can put the nosy brother in the tavern to help entertain the guests.

At this time, several Pokémon who had been playing outside all day ran into the house.

They saw Naoki sitting in front of the desk in a daze, with puzzled expressions on their faces.

 A group of Pokémon gathered around and made confused noises.

 “Quaao?”

Naoki explained: "I'm thinking about the new home. Construction of our new home will start tomorrow morning. It will be a more spacious house with various rooms and living rooms. Your activities The area will get bigger.”

 Hearing this, many Pokémon's eyes lit up.

Frost Milk Fairy was even more surprised and said: "Mama?!"

 A bigger house? Can it also have a creamery of its own?

Zhishu guessed what Frost Milk Fairy was thinking. After all, he had promised Frost Milk Fairy before.

"Yes, I will set aside a separate room and transform it into a cream workshop. I will put ovens, cream buckets and other kitchen utensils there. From now on, it will be reserved exclusively for making desserts." Naoki said.

 “Mama!”

 The Frost Milk Fairy's eyes flickered, full of expectation and longing.

Looking at its expression, Naoki smiled, then turned to look at the other Pokémon: "What about you? What kind of house do you like?"

 As he asked, he took out a bowl of peeled translation melon seeds from the cupboard.

The Motorized Lizard was the first to answer: "Gah!" (Warm room!)

"A warm room?" Naoki thought about the lizard's habit of being afraid of the cold, and nodded clearly: "No problem, we can install a fireplace in the living room and light it in winter to ensure that the whole house is warm. Proud."

 “Gahaw~” The Motorized Lizard screamed happily.

 Then, Naoki turned his attention to Kuailong again.

When it was his turn, Kuailong raised his arms and shouted: "Ouch!" (I want a big, big room! There is also a lake where I can swim, bask in the sun, and watch the stars!)

 Naoki: “…” There are quite a lot of requirements!

 In fact, Kuailong prefers the outside to the indoors.

 At first, it spent the night in the Poké Ball every night, but gradually, as Kuailong became more and more familiar with the pasture, it began to lie down and sleep on the grass outside, and almost never slept in the house.

 Zhi Shu began to think about what kind of room could meet Kuailong's needs.      However, it is a pity that there is no such room in this world.

He poked Kuailong's big belly and said ruthlessly: "There is no such room in this world. You should sleep on the grass outside! Not only is there a lot of space there, there is a lake, you can also watch the stars and bask in the sun. Perfect for your requirements.”

Kailong suddenly felt disappointed. It turns out there is no such room?

 In this case, forget it and let it continue sleeping on the soft grass outside! You can also see beautiful stars and moon every night.

"Where's Guluton?" Zhishu looked at Guluton again.

 Compared to Kuailong, Luton is much more casual: "Ah gah!" (Sleep in your room!)

 Naoki: “…”

 He should have expected this answer.

 Writing down Guluton's conditions in a small notebook, Zhishu looked at Bu Tubo again: "Where is Bu Tubo?"

　　Bu Tubo said happily: "Bamo!" (Sleep with Naoki!)

"Very good." Zhi Shu touched the head of the landhog, and then looked around: "Then it's settled?"

Several Pokémon had no objections.

 Early the next morning, Naoki went to the town to find Keli.

　　Klee was very surprised when she learned his purpose: "So soon?"

Zhi Shu smiled and nodded: "Yes! It's all thanks to the big milk tank and the goat."

"Okay, I understand." Kelly thought of those unconventional mount goats, and suddenly felt that she was not so surprised.

 She turned around and led the way: "Follow me!"

 Under the leadership of Keli, Naoki came to a room similar to a workshop.

 The room was in a mess, with various drawings lying on the table and floor.

Kelly walked to the table, took out a few drawings from the drawer and handed them over.

Zhi Shu reached out and took it, and saw two houses with slightly different appearances drawn on the drawing.

One is a Nordic pastoral house full of fairy tale style, and the other is similar to the home of Nobi Nobita in Doraemon, a Japanese-style double-story mansion.

 “Choose one!” Kelly said.

Zhi Shu's eyes kept moving between the two drawings, and finally stopped at the pastoral house full of fairy tale style.

 The reason is that this photo looks very much like the house in Stardew Valley, which looks better and is more suitable for the ranch.

Seeing his choice, Keri smiled and nodded: "It is true that this kind of house is more suitable for ranches. In that case, let's decide on the internal structure!"

"Generally speaking, when building, I will plan the rooms in advance. The bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom, and dining room are on the first floor. The side bedroom, nursery room, and study room are on the second floor. There are also two free rooms that can be used by the owner. It is used as a storage room, and there is a cellar under the house that can be used for winemaking or converted into a basement.”

“Besides these, do you have any other requirements?”

Naoki told Clee the results of yesterday's discussion with the Pokémon.

After listening, Keri nodded: "The cream workshop...the room where desserts are made. This is simple. Is there anything else besides this?"

 Zhi Shu shook his head: "No more."

 Keli: "The total cost of materials and construction is 1.8 million, which includes the cost of flooring, carpets and wallpapers. You can choose your own."

“In addition, our store also provides customized furniture services. In addition to basic tables, chairs and benches, you can also buy sofas, storage cabinets, beds, various lighting fixtures, etc. from here.”

Taken together, the estimated cost is about two million.

Zhi Shu had already expected it, so he just nodded calmly when he heard this: "I know, the floor should be ordinary wooden floor, and the wallpaper should also be wood grain wallpaper."

"No problem." Kerri smiled: "I have to prepare first. Construction will start tomorrow morning. It is expected to take one to two months."
