Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Wholesale Caterpies!

"5 billion!" Leo's pupils suddenly shrank upon hearing this number. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and it was evident that Joffrey's courage was somewhat beyond his expectation.

Before coming to see Joffrey, he made a special trip to the palace treasury. Through systematic appraisal, Leo had long known that the current property reserves of the Coast Kingdom were about 7 billion beli.

7 billion Baileys! This King Joffrey has really spent a lot of money this time! Thoughts flashed by; Leo immediately put on a cheerful smile on his face and laughed happily:

"Hah ha ha ha... the King is really courageous! Unexpectedly, our first cooperation is such a surprise with such a large transaction volume!"

"Because I believe in you! Sir Leo!" Joffrey's eyes flickered, as if she placed all his hopes on Leo, and said slowly:

"The current Kingdom of Coast is actually far less peaceful than it seems. We are facing an unprecedented crisis..."

"And you suddenly appeared at this critical moment, as if it was a revelation from heaven..."

"So I don't want to miss this opportunity!" Joffrey clenched her fist tightly.

It was not that he had never doubted Leo, but the strength Leo showed really made Joffrey feel...

If the other party wanted to lie to him, there was no need to pull out so many unnecessary things. Whether it was the Pokémon battled in the video or the powerful beasts in the illusion, they all left a deep impression on him, as if they were real.

Therefore, he would rather put the future of the Coast Kingdom on the mysterious Leo than let the people of the entire country become slaves working for the World Government!

As the leader of a country, how could he not know how those kingdoms that could not afford heavenly gold treated their own citizens.

Thinking of this, Joffrey suddenly felt that he didn't want to waste a moment and just wanted to complete the transaction as soon as possible.

"Sir, no Lord Leo, please remove this barrier. I will send someone to get the money from the treasury now..." He quietly pointed to the barrier behind him and requested humbly.

"Treasury?" Leo smiled slightly, "No need to bother! I have already prepared it for you!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand. Box after box of coins, stacks of gold nuggets, and countless jewelry instantly made the space crowded.

These are all the money of the Kingdom of Coast. During the previous inspection, Leo had already marked it. Now after Joffrey agreed on the amount of the transaction, he immediately teleported the money and treasure worth 5 billion.

"This, this is..." Joffrey took a deep breath, and he instantly recognized the piles of gold nuggets, which were the savings he had planned to use to pay for the heavenly gold.

The total weight of the things in this room must be more than dozens of tons! Unexpectedly, he actually changed them all with a wave of his hand.

Such mysterious and unpredictable methods can only be accomplished by beings who truly walk in the world!

In an instant, Joffrey believed Leo even more.

Leo just smiled, as if he has done a trivial thing, and asked again lightly:

"The King, materials worth 5 billion beli have been prepared. Are you sure you want to convert them all into points?"

Joffrey clenched his fists. At this time, his heart was pounding and his palms were sweating.

5 billion is not a small amount! But he still nodded resolutely:

"Yes!"

"Then...as you wish..." Thinking that 40,000 points will be credited soon, Leo is in a good mood. He saw him wave his hand.

In an instant, the gold, silver, jewelry, and money all over the floor disappeared little by little in front of Joffrey's eyes, as if they were swallowed up by the void of another dimension.

At this time, Leo once again took out a cell phone Rotom, the same as the one given to Ace, and handed it to Joffrey.

"This is a gift for recharging a certain amount of points, please keep it!"

If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools! With this mobile phone, Leo can keep track of customers' updates at any time, keep in touch with them frequently, and provide after-sales service.

After all, the products in his system cannot be digested by tens of billions or hundreds of billions! When doing business, he must pay attention to the steady flow of water! 

'Your points have been recharged, please check them carefully,' as soon as the Rotom mobile phone was delivered to Joffrey's hands, a voice prompt suddenly came out.

Joffrey clicked on the phone screen, and his personal information column instantly popped up:

[Joffrey Lauren]

[Points: 10,000]

Looking at the 5 billion Baileys that had been converted into the balance of points on his account, although it hurt his heart, he immediately put away his thoughts and asked Leo:

"Lord Leo, the points have been redeemed. Please help me recommend some Pokémon suitable for cultivation in our kingdom!" With the money, Joffrey even had the confidence to speak, and his tone couldn't help but become a little hasty. He couldn't wait to see the magical Pokémon now.

Leo, who had gained a lot, was also unambiguous. He clicked on the tablet Rotom a few times, then turned the screen to Joffrey and showed it.

Leo sincerely suggested: "Your Majesty the King, based on your current points situation, I recommend that you use all your points to redeem this Pokémon!"

Joffrey looked at the screen.

What appeared at the top of the screen was a small bug with a green body and pink "Y" shaped tentacles. Next to this little bug, there are three big characters written - Caterpie!

"Caterpie, does this Pokémon have anything special?" Joffrey asked curiously.

Leo smiled lightly, "The Caterpie is a common Pokémon in the Pokémon world. It is at the bottom of the food chain, and its strength is also the lowest among Pokémon." Joffrey blinked silently, not dissatisfied because everything Leo said was shortcomings. He knew that Leo had his reasons for recommending this Pokémon to him.

Sure enough, Leo suddenly changed his tone: "But!"

"It is precisely because of the universality and weakness of Caterpies that the price of Caterpies is very low. Ordinary Caterpies only cost 1 point per piece... At the same time, Caterpies are also one of the easiest Pokémon to survive. Their main food is leaves. As long as there are trees, they can reproduce in large numbers..."

"And the Caterpie also has the amazing ability to spin silk. The cloth made from the silk spun by the Caterpie is not only strong and durable but also extremely comfortable to touch! In addition, the Caterpie is also the easiest type to evolve..."

"As long as they are cultivated properly, you can get 10,000 powerful Butterfree in almost a month."

"Evolution? Butterfree?" As someone who doesn't understand the rules of Pokémon evolution Joffrey looked puzzled again.

Leo smiled quietly, "You can check these basic information about Pokémon later using the Rotom phone in your hand..."

"So, may I ask, King, how do you plan to use your points?"

"I... ..." After listening to Leo's explanation, although he was a little unwilling to exchange for these weak looking Pokémon, he still decided "I believe you, Lord Leo, I want to exchange 10,000 Caterpies!"

"You won't regret it!" Leo looked at him with interest.

"Then, the deal is done!"

Bang! 

Leo suddenly snapped his fingers.

In the room, 10 huge packages appeared instantly.

Looking through the mouth of the package, they immediately saw the mountains of Poké Balls inside.

These pokeballs were given to Joffrey for free by Leo for the convenience of operation. Maybe there are too many Poké Balls in the Pokémon world. In the system, 1 point can be exchanged for 100 Poké Balls. 10,000 elf balls only cost 100 points. For Leo, who is not short of money now, it is completely affordable!

And Joffrey, who had watched the video of the battle just now, also knew that those strange round containers contained those magical Pokémon!

"Then, King, all the Pokémon you want are here. This cooperation is very pleasant. In my own name, I will give you an extra Pokémon!" With that, Leo took out a Pokémon ball again.

With a flash of red light, Pidgeot appeared in the room.

"Bi~" Pidgeot chirped and tilted its head to look at Leo for no apparent reason.

Leo stroked its feathers reluctantly.

In any case, Pidgeot is also the first Pokémon he got from the system, and he still has the feeling of "first time".

But Leo now has the ability to teleport and has a lot of points. The way he travels in the future must be upgraded.

At that time, he just wanted a suitable means of transportation, so he didn't think too much and just exchanged for a cheaper Pidgeot.

But now, Pidgeot can no longer keep up with him in terms of talent and strength.

Instead of following him to eat ashes, it is better to give it a better living environment.

With Joffrey's crazy attitude towards Pokémon, Leo believed that if Pidgeot followed him, its future life would be more comfortable.

After solemnly handing Pidgeot's Poke Ball to Joffrey's hand, Leo explained. "This is a powerful bird Pokémon Pidgeot. It has the ability to suppress the blood of Caterpies so that you can better control it. Manage these Caterpies, and I hope you can treat Pidgeot well!"

"I...I will definitely do it! Thank you, Lord Leo!"

Joffrey, the king of a country, excitedly took the elf ball and bowed to Leo respectfully.

Leo fully accepted the bow and said to Joffrey and Pidgeot.

"Then, the transaction is over, and I have to leave. I look forward to the next transaction with you, His Majesty the King."

"Pidgeot, do your best! I will come back to see you~"

Swish! As soon as Leo finished speaking, his figure and the super protective shield around him disappeared in an instant, as if they had never appeared.

Noisy sounds came from outside the palace.

Only then did Joffrey realize that Leo's protective shield just now not only blocked their conversation but also blocked the sounds from the outside world.

"It's like a dream."

Joffrey looked at the Pidgeot and a bunch of Caterpie Poke Balls in front of him...

He really couldn't believe that his life changed like this in just a few dozen minutes.
