Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 254 The Boss with a Monthly Salary of 4!

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Qianxue was speechless for a moment.

She hadn't expected Qingyuan to use such words to pressure her.

After standing there thinking for a long time, Qianxue finally spoke to Qingyuan again.

"100,000 Alliance Coins a week is too expensive, can you make it cheaper?"

"I really want to learn your skills from you!"

By the end, Qianxue's tone had a hint of pleading.

Even so, Qingyuan still spoke coldly.

"One hundred thousand a week, not a penny less!"

"If you think it's too expensive, you can leave with me. Anyway, I never intended for you to come with me!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Qianxue stood there, deep in thought with a conflicted expression.

She recalled the future her parents had planned for her when she was in Hoenn.

In the end, she gritted her teeth and decided to do it.

No matter what, she is determined to become a powerful trainer.

Therefore, we must succeed in making it to the Quartz Conference this time.

If we can't get a shortlist at the Quartz Convention this time...

Not only will she be unable to become a trainer, but she will also have to follow her parents' arrangements and return home to inherit the family's mining business.

Putting aside the fact that her dream is to travel the world and make friends with all sorts of elves.

Just the fact that she, a delicate young girl, would go back home to work in the mining industry is unacceptable to most people.

"Okay, 100,000 it is!"

Looking at Qingyuan's indifferent face, Qianxue raised her head and spoke loudly to him.

Hearing this, Qingyuan was taken aback.

He hadn't expected that Qianxue would agree to such stringent conditions.

His original intention was to use the high cost of Alliance Coins to force Qianxue to stay away from him and not follow him.

After all, based on his observations over the past few days, he had come to the conclusion that Qianxue was not a good travel companion.

If she were to travel with him, he would not only have to act as her nanny, but also as her bodyguard and teacher.

I never expected that Qianxue would agree to a fee of 100,000 Alliance Coins per week.

The moment Qianxue agreed, Qingyuan was filled with regret.

Damn, I didn't ask for enough. I should have known this little brat was so rich.

He wants 200,000 Alliance Coins a week, but that's still too little.

This is a huge loss!

However, it was too late for Qingyuan to regret it now.

However, upon closer examination, Qingyuan isn't entirely at a loss.

100,000 a week, 400,000 a month (four weeks)

He only earned 100,000 Alliance Coins a month as an Alliance investigator.

This is equivalent to being four Alliance investigators, so it's not too bad a loss.

After putting himself in her shoes, Qingyuan immediately felt much better.

They immediately drafted an agreement and signed it with Qianxue.

After Qianxue successfully signed the agreement, Qingyuan affixed the seal of the Alliance Investigator.

Qingyuan then looked at the agreement in his hand and chuckled.

Four hundred thousand Alliance Coins a month, and that's how Scorpion King and his companions got their supplements.

"He's like an idiot!"

Seeing Qingyuan's silly grin, Qianxue silently complained from the side.

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan pretended not to have heard clearly and asked Qianxue again.

He had already used his telekinesis to control the wooden stick behind Qianxue's head.

If Qianxue dares to say it again, he'll treat her like he's subdued the Scorpion King.

He knocked Qianxue down with one blow, letting her see what a real fight was like!

"No, I mean we should get going!"

Seeing Qingyuan's unfriendly gaze, Qianxue wisely spoke to him.

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan released his mental power, letting the wooden stick fall behind Qianxue, and said to her with an appreciative expression.

"You're smart to know your place, otherwise I would have taught you a lesson!"

Hearing the noise behind her, Qianxue turned around and looked back.

Upon seeing the wooden stick on the ground, as thick as a baby's arm, he immediately wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and muttered a speechless complaint.

"What a stingy person!"

"Humph!"

Upon hearing this, Qingyuan looked up at Qianxue and gave her a cold snort.

Then they prepared to continue their journey on the armored rhinoceros.

"Hey, hey, don't go!"

"I've already paid you so much money, it's not too much to ask that you leave me a spot on the back of the Armored Rhino!"

Qianxue, seeing Qingyuan preparing to advance, quickly reached out to stop the armored rhinoceros and said to Qingyuan.

Hearing this, Qingyuan glanced at the back of the armored rhinoceros before shrugging at Qianxue.

"There's no second place behind the armored rhinoceros!"

Upon hearing this, Qianxue immediately objected, climbing onto the back of the armored rhinoceros while speaking to Qingyuan.

"I don't care, I've already paid!"

"Iron Rhino has to take me with him!"

After saying that, Qianxue climbed to the tail of the armored rhinoceros and sat down on it.

"Look, there are still seats here!"

Qianxue steadied herself and then looked at Qingyuan with a smug expression.

"Just so you know, that spot isn't stable. Don't blame me if you fall!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, you won't fall. Don't underestimate me!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Qianxue immediately waved her hand and addressed Qingyuan.

"In that case, let's set off, Armored Rhinoceros!"

Hearing Qianxue's words, Qingyuan shook his head and spoke directly to the armored rhinoceros.

He had already tried to persuade her, but Qianxue wouldn't listen, so there was nothing he could do.

It's enough to let Qianxue fall down and experience it once.

After all, people can't teach each other, but experience can teach people in one go.

Qianxue will regret it when she suffers the consequences.

"Huh!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the armored rhinoceros roared, shook its head, and prepared to continue its journey.

Although there was an extra person on its back, for the armored rhinoceros, it was no different from when it was carrying Qingyuan.

After all, the combined weight of the two of them might not even be as heavy as the load Qingyuan was carrying for it.

As the armored rhinoceros moved, Qianxue suddenly understood why Qingyuan had warned her earlier.

When the armored rhinoceros was still, nothing was amiss, but as soon as it moved, Qianxue realized why Qingyuan had said she would fall off the tail of the armored rhinoceros.

Damn, this place is downwards, and she has nowhere to steady herself.

Helpless, in order to maintain her balance, Qianxue had no choice but to reach out and hug Qingyuan's waist.

"Hey, don't push me! Or I'll report you for sexual harassment!"

Upon sensing Qianxue's actions, Qingyuan immediately shouted loudly at her.

Upon hearing this, Qianxue's forehead immediately broke out in a series of black lines.

"Shut up! I'm warning you, you're being hypocritical after getting something for nothing!"

Qianxue slapped Qingyuan on the back and said through gritted teeth.

Qingyuan, feeling the touch on his back, wisely shut his mouth.

After all, it seems that he did indeed benefit from this situation.
