I just want to give the elves a home. What's wrong with that?

Chapter 313 'King Carp's Brother'

"Both fruit gnats have evolved successfully. This is really great. Fatty, how are you going to thank me?"

Li Ran also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that he didn't make enough jam, so he walked to the kitchen and took out the apple pie that had almost cooled down from the oven.

"It's getting late, let's just stay here for the night."

The staff dormitory of the apple orchard has an entire floor of empty rooms, which is more than enough for them to rest here.

"No problem, I'll go and call Yanyan for you."

Hong Pang made an 'OK' gesture, sent a message to Zuo Feifei, and then ran out to call Yanyan.

Li Ran also picked up a knife and cut the apple pie into several pieces. He distributed the extra apple pies and the crayfish that had just been delivered to the employees of the apple orchard. However, they did not show much expression after receiving the apple pies. Instead, they cheered for the crayfish. After all, they were dealing with apples all day long and were tired of eating apples.

On the other hand, Uncle Li ate a few pieces in a hurry, then hurriedly found a construction site and started training the Apple Dragon.

"What smells so good?!"

As soon as the door was opened, Lu Xiaoyan ran straight to the dining table. Knowing that she liked this kind of sweet pastry the most, Li Ran quickly handed her two pieces.

"Wash your hands before you eat."

"Gardevoir, you should eat too."

Gardevoir wiped her wet hands elegantly with a tissue, then followed Hong Pang's example and picked up the knife and fork beside her to enjoy her meal.

Compared with the three of them, Li Ran and Swampert's eating style seemed a little awkward.

"I'm done eating. I'm going to take the honey bug to training."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Pang rushed out with the honey bug.

"As expected, he is a trainer..."

Li Ran burped, with no intention of going out to digest the food. He then opened the illustrated book and uploaded the photos of the honey bug and apple dragon he had just taken, as well as the video of their evolution.

In less than two minutes, Dr. Asakusa's message came back.

???

At this moment, Asakusa Research Institute.

Dr. Asakusa, who had just finished dinner, received a familiar prompt tone. She used to be very excited about this sound, because every time the prompt tone sounded, the information of a Pokémon would be updated in the encyclopedia, but now she has become a little numb.

During the two months that Li Ran was traveling, this kid actually updated nearly 130 kinds of elf information. From the initial excitement to the current numbness, it was all because of this kid.

The storage center of their institute has been expanded from one to three, and their rest time has been reduced a lot.

However, when she thought of those elves, the feeling of fatigue would be much relieved. She opened the newly updated elf information and then sat up from the leather chair.

"Fruit-eating worms can evolve?!"

She was not unfamiliar with the information about fruit worms. When this elf was first discovered, it was very popular, but as time went by, people's enthusiasm gradually faded.

In recent years, due to its apple-like appearance and its inability to evolve, it has been called the "shame of the dragon clan."

I didn’t expect that today, the fruit-eating worm has evolved!

Dr. Asakusa quickly opened the two videos. After seeing the two different forms of evolutionary branches, she let out a long sigh and leaned back in her chair.

"What this kid does always surprises people."

After receiving the bonus from the Asakusa Research Institute, Li Ran grinned. It seemed that the manuscript he compiled was approved.

"I haven't posted anything on my account in a while, so I'll do it today."

He then opened his account on Tieba and published the article.

Less than ten minutes after the article was sent out, it had received over 5 hits, and the comment section was completely flooded with comments.

[Brother Magikarp, no, I should call you Magikarp God, please accept my knee! ]

[It's been twenty years. Do you know how tired I am of waiting? I can finally become a trainer! ]

[I remember there were still a few fruit-eating worms on the apple trees in Tengjiao Park.]

[Stupid people are still posting comments, I have already conquered them! (Picture)]

......

In less than half an hour, the whole country has been swept by a craze for Fruitworms. Unlike the previous Rhydon and Eevee, this Fruitworm is a dragon-attribute Pokémon, the dragon-type Pokémon that all trainers dream of.

Soon Li Ran’s communicator rang. It was Feng Ke.

"When you asked me for the apple orchard, did you think of the fruit-eating worm being able to evolve?"

"How could that be? I just simply wanted to eat an apple."

Li Ran denied it without hesitation, but all he got was a "haha" from Feng Ke. After Feng Ke hung up, Li Ran immediately picked up the landline phone beside him.

"Hey, I have a few announcements to make tomorrow morning, so get everyone together."

The next day.

The sun had just risen and everyone was already waiting in the open space of the dormitory. While everyone was chatting, Li Ran's figure gradually appeared from the direction of the stairs. After being introduced by the manager, Li Ran slowly walked forward and cleared his throat.

"From today on, we will no longer sell apples produced in our apple orchards, but will instead sell them ourselves."

After this statement was made, some employees in charge of picking apples looked confused, and only a few managers had expressions of surprise on their faces.

They have also obtained the key material for the evolution of fruitworms from the Internet, which is apples.

"The members responsible for cultivation, picking, and transportation remain the same, and the other employees will be removed from their original positions and join the jam-making..."

After Li Ran's brief explanation, everyone gradually understood the reason and expressed their agreement.

There is no other reason, because after Li Ran made the announcement, everyone's salary increased by two thousand from the original basis.

Although the price of apples has not changed, a category of jam apples has been added, and the price of a sweet apple is 8888.

As soon as the apple orchard made this change, it received a lot of orders, all of which were orders for sweet apples and sour apples.

"I'll leave this to you. I have to deal with the league competition and may not be here for long."

After saying that, Li Ran glanced at an apple tree. His fruitworm had been free here for a whole day yesterday and was reluctant to go back. It was his territory anyway, so Li Ran let it stay here.

"Do not worry."

After listening to the manager's assurance, Li Ran did not have any doubts. He gave the recipe of the jam to Feng Ke. Most of the staff in the apple orchard were people Feng Ke trusted. As for Feng Ke, when Li Ran proposed to give him 20% of the profits, the other party was happy to accept the task of helping with management.
