The Global Advent of the Elves

"The cheapest accommodation costs 2 a night. This is a money grab."

Lin Zhou clicked on the touch screen to check the results of nearby hotels. The consumption on the artificial island of the Elf Alliance was really high.

A single room in the most ordinary hotel can cost as much as 2 yuan a night, which is comparable to a king-size bed room with sea view in a tourist city.

Sure enough, high living standards are supported by soaring prices. The items themselves are not expensive, but the tax rate is expensive.

Lin Zhou painfully booked a room and then went to put down his luggage first.

There was nothing else to do next. He planned to go out for a walk first, and then go to the so-called Adventure Guild to take a look.

After coming out of the hotel, Lin Zhou took out his illustrated book and looked at the map. The Adventure Guild was not far away. He chose the hotel specifically near the Adventure Guild.

Walking through the business district, Lin Zhou saw many people around him carrying various elves.

In terms of type and degree of cherishment, these elves were not at the same level as those he had seen in Hamazhu.

He had already felt several waves of energy pressing around him just now, and there were obviously many trainer-level elves.

The long-tailed fire fox walked beside Lin Zhou, his ears perked up and his eyes looking around curiously.

It is also full of curiosity about the surrounding environment that it has never seen before.

Lin Zhou saw that there were many brand stores selling elf products around, unlike in Binzhu where there were only a few brands. For example, in Binzhu, Secret Jade Shop was basically dominated by Keyuan.

But here, Lin Zhou clearly saw that many secret jade shops were not weaker than Keyuan in scale.

It is estimated that this kind of business is only for trainers, unlike Keyuan, who also spreads his stall to the market of ordinary people.

Lin Zhou stopped for a moment when passing by a Poké Ball store.

He suddenly remembered that he was about to enter the maze. He heard that there were many elves in the maze. Should he keep a few elf balls to catch the elves?

All he has left now is an empty Poké Ball.

This was given to him by Fujiwara Sakurako before.

Of the original three balls, one was used to catch the Mimikyu, the other was used to catch the Ugly Fish, and this one was left.

If you want to catch Pokémon, one Pokémon Ball is definitely not enough.

Although Lin Zhou could no longer raise any more elves, he could catch and sell them if he encountered good elves.

Lin Zhouke still remembered that when Baodi was live broadcasting, a desert dragonfly sold for hundreds of millions.

Although it is definitely impossible for him to reach that level now, Xianyu also needs to have a dream, so he can set a small goal for it first.

What if it happens

Lin Zhou had just arrived and didn't know much about the brand of Poke Balls. He looked up at the name of the Poke Ball store.

Well, the letters plus diacritical marks look quite foreign. I don’t recognize the foreign brand.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't know him, he is buying something, not a brand.

Lin Zhou thought this and walked into the store. As soon as he entered the store, he regretted it.

The whole store is decorated in pink and tender colors, with all kinds of jewels and jewels. Poke balls of various styles that are either made or too gorgeous are placed in the display cabinets. They are obviously women's models.

The people in the store who were selecting Poké Balls ranged from girls to ladies, but there was no man in sight.

What does it feel like when a man enters a lingerie store?

Lin Zhou probably feels this way now.

Lin Zhou was a little embarrassed, so he decided to go to another house to have a look. He turned around and wanted to leave, but was stopped by a man.

"You've already come in. Don't leave in a hurry. Why don't you take a look first?"

The person who spoke was voluptuous, wearing a sexy bunny girl outfit, with black stockings and shaggy legs, and an unshaven beard.

You are so coquettish

Lin Zhou looked at the perverted man in front of him and took two steps back in fright, almost shouting "Where is the monster?"

The perverted man blew a kiss with a sultry look on his face.

"I'm the design director of the store, Tony. You can also call me Teacher Tony."

Mr. Tony, instead of getting a haircut, you came here to sell Poké Balls.

The corners of Lin Zhou's mouth twitched in embarrassment, and he was smiling.

"No, no need to introduce, I went to the wrong store, I just want to buy ordinary catching Poké Balls, consumables, not this kind"

When Lin Zhou entered the store just now, he had already seen the prices of several Poké Balls in the booth. They were not cheap, and many of them started at five figures.

This kind of elf ball is usually not used to capture elves, but is used to capture and tame elves and exchange them for the elves to live in.

This kind of ball usually does not have a net inside it. It looks fancy, but its actual ability to capture elves is very weak and it is easy to break.

However, its comfort level is generally designed to be very high. Elves staying in it are much more comfortable than in a regular ball, just like the difference between living in a three-square-foot house and a large flat floor.

Moreover, the sphere itself is also quite beautiful, some are inlaid with gold, some are inlaid with diamonds, and special effects are added when the elves are released.

Because it is a luxury product, the price is generally relatively expensive. Generally, people in need will buy it, but Lin Zhou just wants to buy the elf ball for capturing.

"We also have ordinary Poke Balls here."

Tony pointed to Lin Zhou at a glass counter next to the store door.

Lin Zhou looked over. There were ordinary balls, insect balls, forest balls, and deep-sea balls inside the glass counter.

Although the display is very casual and it seems that it is not the main business, the variety is very complete.

"I can just buy this kind. It costs 5 ordinary balls and 10 insect balls. Please help me settle the bill, Mr. Toni."

Lin Zhou felt awkward no matter how he screamed, mainly because the way Teacher Tony dressed was really too eye-catching.

"Okay, dear, don't look at anything else. Although our store mainly sells women's Poké Balls, we also have men's ones, and they are usually specially customized."

Teacher Tony went to the warehouse quickly, took out 5 elf balls and 10 insect balls, and packed shopping bags for Lin Zhou.

"Customized"

Lin Zhou asked strangely while paying the bill.

"I am the Poke Ball Design Director in the store. I specialize in designing and creating various Poke Balls. I can customize Poke Balls for customers according to their needs. All Poke Balls in our store are purely handmade."

It turns out to be a handicraft shop, no wonder it’s so expensive

Lin Zhou looked at the checkout price, which was about twice as high as that of other normal chain brand stores.

After all, hand-made Poke Balls and Poke Balls produced on the production line require completely different efforts.

but.

This teacher Tony actually knows how to make Poke Balls. This is the first time he is Lin Zhou, the Poke Ball maker.

In elf-related industries.

Tree fruits, secret jade, elf eggs.

These are three popular industries, and there are many related knowledge and mature business structures.

But in comparison, the Poke Ball manufacturing industry is relatively weak.

It’s not that it’s unimportant, but the research on Poké Balls has now reached a technical bottleneck, and its functions are completely sufficient for most people.

The production line can basically be mass-produced, and continued in-depth research will not bring much economic benefits, so there are very few people engaged in this industry.

When the Poke Ball manufacturing technology became increasingly mature and the first automatic Poke Ball production lines replaced traditional craftsmen, many Poke Ball manufacturing masters were forced to change careers.

All that's left now is to continue to persevere, keep improving the craftsmanship and use love to generate electricity.
