Pokémon: Who told him to come out of Pallet Town!

Chapter 55 Toyama

Chapter 56 Toyama

Kuye City, villa district.

"You're telling me this is your home?"

Yes, this is my home.

"Just starting renovations?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Excuse me, you two," a worker directed the freak as he passed.

Natsume: "If you want to ask me to meet your father, you don't need to make up any reasons, just say so."

Jiaozi was stunned, as if he had been told what was going on, and reacted again.

"Okay, sure."

So you don't need to buy a house as an excuse after all?

"Alright, take me to your father."

Natsume looked at Jiaozi, whose expression hardened. Jiaozi clapped his hands, and a black luxury car parked not far away drove over.

Soon, the two were taken to a large hotel.

Jiaozi, with practiced ease, led Natsume to the top floor.

"Mr. Natsume, Ms. Choko, please come in."

Natsume followed Jiaozi inside. The room was luxurious, with a faint scent of incense wafting in the air.

Sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window was a slightly overweight middle-aged man with a very kind face.

"Dad." Jiaozi went up and hugged him.

"Haha, you must be Natsume. Just call me Tomiyama." Tomiyama said, extending his hand towards Natsume.

"Jiaozi, what do you like about him?" Tomiyama asked in a teasing tone.

The latter reacted instantly.

"Maybe it's because I'm handsome." Natsume touched his nose.

Upon hearing this, the blushing pride suddenly froze and covered his face. Fu Shan's smile froze for a moment, and he felt that this person was shameless.

Upon closer inspection, Natsume has a handsome appearance, and there seems to be a trace of his own youthful charm between his brows. It's not surprising that he has such confidence.

"Dad, did you bring your things?" Jiaozi asked Fushan.

"Yes, of course I brought it!"

As he spoke, Toyama pulled out a deluxe ball, a red light flashed, and a Rotom appeared in front of Natsume.

This Rotom has exceptional talent, almost as good as the one the system gave me.

Natsume raised an eyebrow.

"Mr. Natsume, I asked my father to prepare a Rotom for you. We can..."

"You're so thoughtful."

The deluxe ball that was in Toyama's hands a second ago was stuffed into Natsume's pocket the next.

The second half of the proud son's sentence, "We can train him together," was abruptly cut off.

"That's right," Tomiyama looked at the prodigy with a bewildered expression.

The researcher you're working with used to work for Team Rocket?

"Creak!" Just then, a slight sound of the door opening was heard.

"Master Ryujiro, please come in."

The voice of a servant came from the doorway.

Natsume turned his head and looked at Toyama's other guest with curiosity.

The newcomer had gray-blue curly hair, styled in a retro slicked-back style.

Behind the silver-rimmed round mirror, he concealed his sharp edge, holding an ivory cane. The pocket watch chain peeking out of his breast pocket was embossed with a clover pattern. Every step he took seemed like tapping the aristocratic code with his heel.

Natsume was taken aback when he saw the other person's familiar appearance.

Isn't this Kojiro's father?

"Tomiyama, it's been a long time." The other party greeted the host first before turning his gaze to Natsume.

"Hello, Mr. Natsume, I am Ryujiro Ijuin. You may call me Ryujiro."

"Okay, Uncle Ryujiro, could you please settle your son's bill? He owes me 100 million yen in pocket money."

As Natsume spoke, he started playing a video on his Rotom phone.

"Oh, so you know my good-for-nothing son? That makes things easier." Ryujiro was unexpectedly pleased and readily handed Natsume a card.

"There are 200 million here." Natsume's assets doubled again, reaching the 400 million mark.

Natsume held the black card with the Master Ball printed on it, his expression strange.

He never expected the other party to be so agreeable, and even give him an extra 100 million.

"Jiaozi, go order us a few drinks."

Tomiyama gave Aoi a meaningful look.

Jiaozi was taken aback and immediately realized that this was an attempt to get rid of her.

Hmph, what can't she hear?

Jiaozi was a little angry and stormed off.

"Bang!" The door slammed shut, and Natsume plopped down on the sofa.

"What brings you two here?" Natsume went straight to the point.

"Mr. Natsume, I've heard that the Alliance has been making some big moves these past few days." Ryujiro's gaze darkened slightly as he tentatively spoke.

"Yes, it's about Dynamax." Natsume said directly.

These two people in front of me probably already had some information from the league.

Upon receiving Natsume's confirmation, the two's eyes lit up.

"We don't know when Dynamax will be rolled out, so we want to prepare in advance," Toyama said.

Natsume suddenly stopped talking.

Seeing that they hadn't gotten any information, Tomiyama and Ryujiro exchanged a glance.

"Mr. Natsume, I am willing to exchange one percent of the shares of Kanto Pharmaceutical Group for the specific progress of the Dynamax system construction."

"Although I own many businesses, I am willing to give you one percent of the total profits at the end of each year."

Ryujiro followed closely behind.

Natsume nodded slightly, as if he had expected it, and handed each of them a USB drive.

"Leave your contact information, and I will notify you as soon as I have any updates."

These two individuals have extremely high assets; even just one percent of their wealth would amount to several billion yuan a year.

Moreover, Natsume had checked and found that the two of them only held about 25% of the shares. Giving him a small portion would be a sign of their sincerity.

Natsume also understood why the two were willing to pay such a price to advance the research on Dynamax.

Of all the Pokémon-related industries, only the Pokémon Center is losing money; the rest are almost all extremely profitable.

Moreover, a new battle system is being promoted in the Kanto region.

Someone has to make the items related to Dynamax, right?

Someone needs to make Dynamax items for trainers, right?

Special training grounds and Dynamax energy wells—the League must have to put them up for tender, right?

Each and every one of these represents an inexhaustible source of wealth.

At times like these, being able to grasp the latest news on Kanto's Dynamax implementation as soon as possible is crucial for all businesses in Kanto.

Natsume had no intention of starting a company. Rather than waiting until this information became worthless, he decided to sell it to these two now.

"Haha, Mr. Natsume is truly a promising young man!"

In the end, Ryujiro stopped Natsume, who was about to leave, and slipped a card into his hand.

"There are five billion here," Ryujiro said in a low voice, looking left and right.

"That's my assistant's father, we need to pay extra," Natsume whispered.

Ryujiro: "."

"No, it's my son, Kojiro." As Ryujiro spoke, he took out a handkerchief and began to wipe away his tears.

"That unfilial son—Mr. Natsume, I hope that if you encounter him outside, you will take good care of him and prevent him from being bullied."

"Do you have clothes for your butler?" Natsume suddenly asked Ryujiro.

"What do you need that for?" Ryujiro asked, looking puzzled.

"Never mind that, just prepare a few sets for me."

"Okay, I'll have someone expedite the order for you, and it'll be delivered tonight!"

When Natsume and Takako arrived at the Koroba Gym, it was already close to evening.

Along the way, Natsume roughly calculated that even if he only took two percent of the profits, he would still have an income of nearly 10 billion yen a year.

How high must their original profits have been!

Tsk tsk tsk, those evil capitalists.

Fortunately, the world has creatures like Pokémon, which have high productivity and can meet the needs of most people.

Otherwise, there would have been countless worker uprisings.
