Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

Soon, the Loach and the Barboach King helped An Jie plant the lotus roots. The brothers then returned to their original home to prepare for moving.

An Jie also went to help.

The brothers dug out the remaining lotus roots from the puddle, and An Jie took Munchlax and the others to help carry the lotus roots back to his house.

The Loach and Barboach King brothers had already decided to store all these lotus roots with An Jie. An Jie put them in the refrigerator at home and then instructed Diancie to send some to the Loach and Barboach King every noon and evening.

In this way, the two brothers officially became neighbors with An Jie's family.

––––––

In the blink of an eye, several days passed. On this day, An Jie and Munchlax had just sent away the Pokémon who had finished breakfast when they suddenly received a system notification. The taskbar status had changed.

Invite 100 Pokémon, deadline 30 days. (100/100) — Completed, rewards pending.

The last novice task was finally completed. An Jie had even deliberately delayed it, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

Without hesitation, he clicked to receive the reward, and the system immediately popped up a window prompt.

Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: Constitution +2.

As soon as An Jie finished claiming this reward, another pop-up window immediately appeared on the system taskbar.

Congratulations to the host for passing the novice period, obtaining achievement rewards: Constitution +5, Intelligence +5, Home Binding Qualification, System Permission Sharing Qualification.

An Jie glanced at his personal information bar, and sure enough, the data above had been updated.

An Jie

Intelligence: 8

Cooking Evaluation: A small bird that can barely make edible dishes.

He clenched his fist, feeling that his whole body was full of power at this moment, and he could almost kill a Tauros with one punch.

He looked at the system taskbar again and found that the taskbar interface had been updated, showing:

[Daily Task 1] Train in the cooking training room for 1 hour — Pending.

[Daily Task 2] Invite 10 Pokémon — Completed, rewards pending.

An Jie didn't need to guess to know that these two daily tasks were fixed tasks and would be refreshed every day in the future. He didn't hesitate to claim the rewards for the completed [Daily Task 2].

A prompt window popped up immediately.

Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: 1 catty of rice.

1 catty of rice? Is this so insignificant?

But after thinking about it, An Jie felt it was normal. After all, it was a daily task that would be refreshed every day, and the rewards were generally very normal.

Checking the system backpack, An Jie indeed saw a "1 catty of rice" icon inside. Speaking of which, he hadn't eaten rice for a long time. Let's eat this for dinner tonight, and stir-fry two small dishes. It will definitely be delicious, and there are many vegetables in the vegetable garden that can be eaten.

However... his novice period is over. Are the seasonings in his kitchen still there? Without seasonings, he would be completely at a loss and wouldn't be able to stir-fry any dishes.

Suddenly, An Jie remembered that after passing the novice period, he seemed to have a special reward, Home Binding Qualification? System Permission Sharing Qualification? What is this?

"Diancie! Diancie!"

It's time to guide the little elf to appear again!

"Coming, coming!"

When Diancie saw An Jie calling so urgently, it thought something had happened. After listening to An Jie's question, it suddenly realized:

"Oh, so it's just for this!"

Then it explained to An Jie in detail what Home Binding Qualification and System Permission Sharing were.

First is the Home Binding Qualification.

An Jie can choose a place as Home and then bind it to the system. After binding, as long as the Pokémon live in "Home", no matter where An Jie is, he can summon them and send them back at any time.

Then there is System Permission Sharing.

An Jie can use the system to issue wages (happiness points) to the Pokémon living in Home, and then share the system store's permissions with the Pokémon, so that the Pokémon can freely shop in the system store!

After listening to Diancie's explanation, An Jie said in surprise: "Goodness, is it so convenient?"

Diancie nodded, "Do you want to bind Home?" Its face was full of expectation, and it also wanted to shop in the system store.

An Jie couldn't wait to say: "Bind, bind, Home is of course where we live now."

"Okay."

As Diancie's voice fell, a pop-up window appeared on An Jie's system interface.

Bind the current residence as Home?

Yes

No

An Jie clicked "Yes" without hesitation, and the system immediately issued a prompt: Congratulations to the host for successfully binding Home.

Diancie asked again: "Do you want to share permissions with Pokémon?"

An Jie also did not hesitate, "Share, share."

Sure enough, as soon as his voice fell, the system interface popped up again.

Share the Pokémon sub-system?

Yes

No

This sub-system is the so-called shared permission, right? After An Jie clicked "Yes", the second pop-up window popped up immediately.

Please select the sub-system sharing object.

1. Diancie

2. Komala

3. Munchlax

This is a multiple choice, An Jie directly selected all three, and the system immediately popped up a prompt: Congratulations to the host for successfully sharing the sub-system.

After the permission sharing was successful, An Jie found a button below his personal information interface.

[Wage Distribution]

He clicked the button, and a pop-up window immediately appeared.

Please select the wage distribution object.

Diancie

Komala

Munchlax

This is also a multiple choice, and the numbers used to enter the wage distribution amount are behind the names.

An Jie thought for a while, and then entered 500 for each one. It wasn't that he was stingy, but that he was too poor. The salary will definitely increase in the future.

After An Jie finished entering and clicked OK, his happiness point amount suddenly decreased by 1500. At the same time, Diancie and the other three had a reaction, and an interface suddenly popped up in front of them.

Diancie

Balance: 500

Shop

Backpack

The sub-system interfaces of the three Pokémon are exactly the same except for the name. They are very concise and very easy to operate.

Diancie, as the system's guiding elf, is naturally no stranger to everything. After seeing the interface generated, it immediately said to An Jie playfully:

"Thank you, boss, for the reward."

At this time, Komala and Munchlax were puzzled by the interface that suddenly appeared in front of them.

Seeing this, An Jie said to Diancie: "Okay, stop being naughty, and quickly teach Munchlax and Komala how to use the system, otherwise their CPUs will burn out."

"Yes, boss!" Diancie ran away in a puff of smoke.

An Jie shook his head helplessly.

Then the three Pokémon gathered together and began to study how to use the sub-system.

When An Jie was making lunch at noon, he found that his seasonings had not decreased, but had increased, as well as flour and other ingredients.

Then Diancie explained the reason to him. In order to allow him to transition smoothly, the system had left him with enough ingredients and seasonings for a month. Once these were used up, it would be none of the system's business if An Jie couldn't find a source of ingredients.

An Jie once again felt that the system was truly considerate, taking all aspects into account.

In the evening, An Jie went to the training room with Munchlax as usual, and after 1 hour, the system taskbar status changed.

[Daily Task 1] Train in the culinary training room for 1 hour — Completed, reward pending.

[Daily Task 2] Host 10 Pokémon — Completed, reward claimed.

He clicked to claim, and the system popped up a prompt.

Congratulations, Master, for receiving the reward: a bunch of celery.

Alright, the daily task rewards are all similar.

Early the next morning, Diancie knocked on An Jie's door.

"An Jie, there's a new task, do you want to accept it?"

"What task?" An Jie asked.

"Take a look." Diancie said, showing the task pop-up to An Jie.

[Procurement Task] Go to Azoth Kingdom for a food procurement, do you want to accept?

Yes

No

Seeing this task, An Jie was slightly stunned.

Azoth Kingdom, his former home!

He had long thought about going back to take a look, but when he thought that it was probably unrecognizable now, he felt a bit homesick.

Is he finally going back now?

Diancie could guess An Jie's complex emotions, and so did it, after all, Azoth Kingdom was once its home too.

"Go back and take a look." Diancie said.

"Okay." An Jie smiled and nodded to Diancie, then accepted the task, and the system taskbar interface immediately changed.

[Daily Task 1] Train in the culinary training room for 1 hour — Pending.

[Daily Task 2] Host 10 Pokémon — Pending.

[Procurement Task] Go to Azoth Kingdom for a food procurement — Pending.

Daily tasks are refreshed daily, and An Jie doesn't need to accept them.

Although the task rewards are average, the advantage is that they are long-term, and Diancie also said that there is a very low probability of good things popping out of the daily task rewards, which depends on An Jie's luck.

In addition, after the novice period ends, all of An Jie's tasks will no longer have time limits, but if some tasks are not completed quickly, it may affect the acceptance of subsequent tasks.

After accepting the task, An Jie, Diancie, and Munchlax went downstairs together, and a new day began.

In the kitchen, An Jie handed over the task of steaming buns to Munchlax, while he dealt with the reward he got from completing the task last night — a bunch of celery.

"Mun ~ Mun ~" Master, what are you doing?

Munchlax stared straight at the celery in An Jie's hand while kneading the dough.

Is Master going to make something delicious again?

Thinking of the rice he ate last night, it was so fragrant, Munchlax's saliva couldn't help but flow out.

It's just that the amount is a bit small, just enough to taste.

The rice reward An Jie got yesterday was only half a kilogram, and Munchlax's appetite was too big, not enough to eat at all.

An Jie said with a smile: "We won't eat steamed buns this morning, let's eat something else."

He planned to use the celery he just got to make buns.

Buns are better than steamed buns.

Hearing An Jie's words, Munchlax's eyes lit up, and the kneading action also sped up.

Excited!!!

An Jie glanced at Munchlax and shook his head helplessly.

He finely chopped the washed celery, then added various seasonings and stirred evenly, and also specially added shallots and garlic grown in his own vegetable garden, and then added the system's special sesame oil, the taste was very tempting.

After the bun filling was prepared, An Jie took the kneaded dough from Munchlax and rubbed it into long strips, then cut it into equal sizes with a knife, and finally started wrapping the buns.

He held the dough with his left hand, added the filling, and then used his right thumb and index finger to clip the bun mouth, the thumb did not move, the index finger clipped the dough and circled, and then folds appeared on the bun.

Not to mention the taste, the appearance of An Jie's buns is absolutely impeccable, white and chubby, the size of a baby's fist, the folds on the buns are all the same size and neat, it doesn't look like they are handmade, but rather like machine-made, without some real skill, it is absolutely impossible to wrap them.

An Jie's speed of wrapping buns was very fast, and soon there were more white and cute little buns on the chopping board, Munchlax's eyes were shining, and he didn't blink.

"Mun ~ Mun ~ ~" Master, I want to learn this!

An Jie asked with a smile: "Want to learn?"

"Mun ~ ~"

Munchlax nodded quickly, it reached out and gently touched a bun, and couldn't help thinking: So cute.

"Okay, I'll teach you later." An Jie naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Mun!!"

Munchlax immediately turned around happily.

After the other Pokémon finished breakfast, An Jie, Diancie, Munchlax, and Komala surrounded a table, and a pot of buns was placed in the center of the table, the hot steam accompanied by the aroma lingered in the nostrils of the family of four.

Munchlax kept twitching his nose, wishing he could suck all the aroma into his stomach.

"Okay, everyone, let's eat, try today's buns and see if they are delicious."

As soon as An Jie's words fell, Munchlax couldn't wait to pick up a bun.

Hoo-ha ~ Hoo-ha ~ ~

The buns that just came out of the steamer were very hot, and Munchlax was sucking in air from the heat, but even so, it was reluctant to let go of the delicious food in his hand.

Although Komala closed its eyes, its movements were no slower than Munchlax.

Munchlax took a bite of half of the bun, and the crisp celery filling with juice revealed, interspersed with chopped green onions, the fresh and tender vegetable taste mixed with the wheat aroma of the bun skin, the combination of the two complemented each other.

Wonderful!

"Mun ~ ~ ~" So delicious!

Seeing Munchlax and Komala eating happily, An Jie smiled on his face, he urged Diancie: "Diancie, you eat quickly too."

The family of four quickly ate a pot of buns clean, and Munchlax still looked like he hadn't eaten enough after eating, so he ate another pot of steamed buns alone.

There was no way, the celery rewarded by the system was not much, An Jie only had enough to wrap that little bit of buns, which could only be used to whet Munchlax's appetite.

Because he ate too much, An Jie hugged Komala and took Diancie and Munchlax out for a walk to digest food.

The morning wind on the Nibel Plateau carried a trace of coolness, blowing on the body to make people feel refreshed, the family of four walked leisurely on the grass, and occasionally greeted the Pokémon they met along the way.

Compared with when he first came to the Nibel Plateau, the Pokémon's attitude towards An Jie is now completely different, not to say that all of them have accepted him, at least now there are almost no Pokémon that run away when they see him, at most they just pretend they didn't see him.

Of course, this is also a minority, most Pokémon are still very friendly.
