#66 - Delicious fish soup

The fish fry of the four major domestic fish are 150 for 1 Happiness Point, bass fry are 100 for 1 Happiness Point, cod fry are 50 for 1 Happiness Point, and sturgeon fry are 1 for 1 Happiness Point.

The fry of CJ's four fishes are all 10 Happiness Points per fish. (Note: Fish fry prices are set by the author and should not be taken as reality.)

After thinking it over, An Jie decided to buy 30,000 fish fry of each of the four major domestic fish, which would only cost 800 Happiness Points in total, which is cheap.

30,000 bass fry would cost a total of 200 Happiness Points, which is also cheap.

15,000 cod fry would cost a total of 300 Happiness Points, which is not expensive.

10,000 sturgeon fry would cost a total of 10,000 Happiness Points, which is a bit expensive.

10,000 of each of the four types of fish fry: reeves shad, Chinese herring, catfish, and icefish, would cost a total of 400,000 Happiness Points, which is damn expensive.

The price of these four types of fish fry is even more expensive than the price of the adult fish meat!

After selecting the types and quantities of fish to raise, An Jie did not immediately purchase them, but first added them to the shopping cart.

Unlike saplings, live fish fry cannot be stored in the system backpack. They must be taken out immediately after purchase. However, there is no place to raise them at home, and they are easy to die. Therefore, An Jie plans to buy them when he is ready to release them.

After selecting the fish fry, An Jie began to select shrimp and crabs.

Raising some shrimp and crabs can not only be eaten by himself, but also be used as food for the fish being raised, killing two birds with one stone!

After thinking it over, An Jie chose three types of shrimp: white shrimp, green shrimp, and crayfish.

White shrimp are small shrimp, green shrimp are medium-sized shrimp, and crayfish are large shrimp.

3,000 white shrimp fry cost 1 Happiness Point. An Jie bought 600,000, for a total of 200 Happiness Points.

2,000 green shrimp fry cost 1 Happiness Point. An Jie bought 300,000, for a total of 150 Happiness Points.

1,000 crayfish fry cost 1 Happiness Point. An Jie still bought 300,000, for a total of 300 Happiness Points.

(Note: This has no reference value and should not be taken as reality.)

An Jie, Munchlax, and Sobble stood by the shore of Lake Nibel with Politoed and several Poliwrath. It was the location directly in front of An Jie's house, and there was a large pile of things at their feet, all of which were nets and some pillars.

Since he was going to raise fish, he had to set up a fish farm. Otherwise, if he directly released the fish into Lake Nibel, all the fish fry would probably swim down the waterfall into the Nibel River, and then go downstream all the way, not knowing where they would go, or even be eaten by other aquatic creatures or Pokémon.

"Okay, let's start," An Jie said.

"Poli ~"

The Poliwrath nodded one after another upon hearing this. Some carried the pillars and jumped into the water, while others dragged the nets into the water, and then swam towards the distance together.

Politoed also jumped into the water.

An Jie took out a fishing boat from the system backpack and put it into the water, then took Munchlax and Sobble and jumped on it.

Now that he had started raising fish, how could he not have a fishing boat? This fishing boat was newly bought by An Jie today. It was easy to operate and very intelligent. Even if An Jie had never driven a boat before, he could easily control it.

The technology of the Pokémon world is really strong!

However, such a fishing boat was not cheap, costing An Jie 300,000 Happiness Points, and the boat was still small.

An Jie simply couldn't afford a large or medium-sized fishing boat.

Last time, merging the Secret Fortress cost a lot of Happiness Points, and this time, buying fish fry and a fishing boat cost a lot of money again. His Happiness Points were about to run out.

Happiness Points are really not durable. They are gone after buying one or two big items.

The fishing boat slowly sailed towards the center of the lake. Munchlax sat on the boat, curiously touching everything. This was its first time on a boat.

The fishing boat floated in the lake. An Jie sat at the bow of the boat, Munchlax sat at the stern, and Sobble jumped into the water to chase the fishing boat for a while, and then climbed up nimbly to spray water and play, having a great time.

On the Poliwrath's side, they had already swam to the center of the lake, and were diving into the water one by one, burying tall pillars into the lakebed.

An Jie wanted to enclose half of Lake Nibel near his house with a net to raise fish, and the pillars that the Poliwrath buried were used to hang the net.

The mesh of this net was very dense. Enclosing the water area with it would prevent both shrimp fry, crab fry, and fish fry from passing through.

Moreover, only enclosing the part near An Jie's house would prevent his fish farming from affecting the ecology of the upstream and downstream of the Nibel River, and would not affect the migration of fish in the coming year.

The Poliwrath were all very strong, with bulging muscles all over their bodies. Those pillars were very thick, each one thicker than An Jie's waist. They carried the pillars and swam in the water without any effort.

In addition to the pillars, the nets were also very heavy. They were even heavier in the water, but the Poliwrath still moved freely while dragging the nets.

The nets that An Jie bought were very strong and made of special materials. Even if large Water-type Pokémon violently collided with them, they would not be easily damaged.

An Jie's nets were not only used to separate Lake Nibel from the fish farm, but also to separate the fish farm into small areas.

Now the fish fry, shrimp fry, and crab fry were still small and not suitable for mixed breeding. If they were really put together, there would only be one consequence, which was that they would kill each other. Fish eat fish, fish eat shrimp, shrimp eat fish, and then An Jie's fish farming would lose everything.

Seeing the Poliwrath heaving and burying the pillars, diving into the water for a while, and swimming out of the water for a while, Munchlax suddenly jumped into the water with a plop and swam quickly towards the Poliwrath.

Not to mention, Munchlax's swimming skills were very outstanding, and its movements were also very flexible.

"Mun ~ Mun ~" I want to help! I want to help!

After swimming to the Poliwrath, Munchlax said with an enthusiastic look.

The Poliwrath looked at it suspiciously, "Poli ~ Poli ~" Can you do it?

"Mun ~ Mun ~" No problem.

Munchlax patted its chest to guarantee, and after saying that, it plunged into the water like the Poliwrath.

The Poliwrath thought for a while, and also plunged into the water.

Snorlax was indeed capable, and a good swimmer. Its agility in the water was unlike that of a land-based Pokémon. With the joint efforts of it and Poliwrath, a pillar was quickly buried.

Seeing this, Ange shouted to Snorlax from afar: "Snorlax, great job!"

"Gang ~"

Snorlax waved to Ange happily.

Sobble, perched on the ship's railing, looked at Ange, then at Snorlax. Suddenly, it jumped into the water with a splash and swam quickly to another Poliwrath.

"Mesa ~ Mesa ~" I'm here to help.

It said, imitating Snorlax.

"Po?" Poliwrath was stunned by what it said, then burst out laughing, "Popo ~ Popo ~" Good, don't make trouble, go play aside.

Hearing Poliwrath say this, Sobble was very unconvinced, so it held the pillar with both hands and pushed hard, trying to straighten the pillar lying on the water.

"Mesa ~ Mesa ~"

It gritted its teeth, closed its eyes tightly, and used all its strength, but the pillar remained unmoved.

"Popopo ~ ~ ~"

Poliwrath laughed even harder.

"Mesa ~ Mesa ~"

Sobble clenched its fists angrily and punched the pillar hard, but ended up hurting its hand badly.

o (╥﹏╥) o "Mesa… …"

Tears welled up in Sobble's eyes.

"Popopo ~ ~ ~"

Poliwrath laughed even more happily. It showed off its muscles boastfully and easily erected the pillar in front of Sobble.

"Mesa ~ Mesa ~"

Sobble really cried this time.

Poliwrath was still proudly showing off its strength, completely unaware of the seriousness of the situation. Sure enough, before long, Poliwrath started crying along with Sobble.

"Popopo ~ ~" What's going on!

Poliwrath asked, wiping away tears.

"Mesa ~" I won't tell you!

Sobble said angrily, then its body suddenly turned transparent and disappeared from Poliwrath's side.

What Poliwrath didn't know was that Sobble's tears contained a very strong lacrimatory component, said to be equivalent to the power of 100 onions. It was so close to Sobble, how could it not shed tears?

At this time, Poliwrath's companions noticed the situation here. Seeing Poliwrath being defeated, they also laughed mercilessly.

Laughter will not disappear, it will only be transferred.

Everyone worked and joked, the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.

According to Ange's instructions, the Poliwraths quickly buried the pillars one by one, and then it was time to hang the net.

Poliwrath, Politoed, and Snorlax dragged the net through the water, hanging the two ends of the net between the two pillars respectively. The fish farm gradually took shape.

After the net was hung, dividing the fish farm into different areas of different sizes, Ange took out heavy metal chains and threw them to the edge of the net, asking the Poliwraths to tie the metal chains to the bottom of the net.

These metal chains are called anchor chains, and they are used to fix the bottom of the fishing net. Without them, the fish in the fish farm would still escape from the bottom of the fishing net.

By the time the anchor chains were tied, it was already late. Ange and the others worked on the details for a while, and by this time it was evening.

The afterglow of the sun on the lake surface dyed Lake Nibel with a warm orange color.

At this moment, with a clang, a lively big fish was thrown onto the fishing boat by a Poliwrath. It was a big black fish, a full five feet long, and no one knew how long it had lived in Lake Nibel.

At this time, Snorlax had returned to the boat. Ange quickly said to it, "Snorlax, catch it quickly." As he said that, he was about to pounce on it himself.

However, before Ange and Snorlax could pounce on it, the quick-eyed and quick-handed Sobble pounced on it and hugged the big black fish, and asked Ange triumphantly: "Mesa ~ Mesa ~" Am I handsome? Am I awesome?

Its small size was only a fifth of the big black fish. The way it hugged the fish was so funny.

Sure enough, the next second, Sobble was slapped into the water by the big black fish's tail.

"Mesa ~" Ouch!

At this time, Ange and Snorlax had already pounced on it. Ange hugged the head of the black fish, and Snorlax hugged the tail. Seeing that the black fish was about to struggle, Ange punched it on the forehead.

The black fish stopped moving instantly. It was knocked unconscious by Ange.

Sure enough, being strong is good.

Ange blew on his fist, imitating Sobble's usual appearance, and asked the just-surfaced Sobble coolly: "Am I handsome?"

Sobble: . . .

After the fish farm is enclosed, it needs to be cleaned up, so fish fry cannot be released immediately. Wild fish living in the water are one of the targets that need to be cleaned up.

Although these fish are not large in number, they will pose a great threat to fish fry, shrimp fry, and crab fry, so they must be cleaned up.

Seeing that it was already late, Ange said to Poliwrath and Politoed: "Let's go home, otherwise it will be dark. Let's clean up the fish farm tomorrow."

Politoed and the Poliwraths responded one after another, quickly gathering to the side of Ange's fishing boat and swimming towards the shore with the fishing boat.

After landing, Ange and Snorlax carried the huge black fish together. As he walked, he said to Poliwrath and Politoed: "Let's drink fish soup tonight!"

Black fish soup is very nourishing!

"Popo ~ Popo ~"

"Ponyoro ~ ~"

… …

Politoed and the Poliwraths cheered, and Snorlax and Sobble were also very happy.

When Ange and the others returned home, the tree-planting Pokémon had already returned. They gathered in the square in front of Ange's door, chasing and playing, or chatting and playing, waiting for Ange and the others to come back to cook dinner.

Ange walked home and said, "Everyone, wait a little longer, we'll be able to eat soon!"

After arriving home, he and Snorlax took a simple bath, and then started to get busy in the kitchen.

Ange left the work of killing the fish and cooking the fish to Sobble. Ange had taught it how to cook fish, and today was the time to test its cooking skills.

Regarding the matter of being slapped by the black fish's tail. Sobble had a deep resentment, so it gritted its teeth when killing the fish. A fish more than one meter long was cut into slices by it with Water Shuriken.

The black fish in Lake Nibel is really good, the meat is crystal clear, with a little pink in the snow white, it can be called the best!

Sobble not only has a talent for cooking porridge, but also has a talent for cooking fish soup. In a huge pot, hot steam was rising. Sobble stayed by the pot, constantly adding seasonings to the fish soup. Soon, a rich aroma filled the kitchen.

Seeing that the fish soup was ready, Sobble took a small spoon and bowl, scooped a small bowl and tasted it.

*(^O^)* Wow~ Too… …too delicious!

Sobble was instantly conquered by its own cooking skills.

It carried the spoon, holding the bowl, and ran along the stove to Ange, holding the bowl and looking at Ange expectantly: "Mesa ~ Mesa ~" Ange, try it quickly.
