Chapter 60 The Visitor
"Ahong, where did you get this badge?" Kikuko's urgent tone expressed her emphasis on the badge.
Boss Hong answered truthfully: "Lady Kiku, three children came to the arcade today. The child who gave me this badge has won the grand prize five times, so many greedy people have been eyeing him. But the child has taken them all down. He then asked me to deal with these people and give me this badge. He also said that if I encounter any insurmountable problems, I should show the badge to them."
Kikuko looked at Boss Hong with envy and said, "You've hit the jackpot this time. Have you checked the child's identity?"
As always, Boss Hong replied respectfully, "Lady Kiku, I've already checked. His name is Xuan Mingtian, and he's a first-year student at Quartz Academy."
After thinking for a moment, Kikuko said, "You should know what happened in the Sinnoh League a while ago, right? That kid's grandfather beat up all the big shots in the Sinnoh League. So you should try to build a good relationship with him; it will be very beneficial for you."
Mr. Hong stood there dumbfounded, completely unprepared for the powerful force behind this child.
After his initial shock, Boss Hong immediately thanked Kikuko: "Kikuko-sama, thank you so much for your advice. I will increase your share by 1% in the future, and I will notify you as soon as there are any new Ghost-type Pokémon eggs."
"Yes, you're very good. I trust your abilities." Kikuko hung up the phone, quite satisfied with Boss Hong's promise; after all, who wouldn't want to make money?
With great excitement, Boss Hong took out an unknown Pokémon egg from the safe. He had spent nearly 1 million to acquire it. Although the egg looked like a Growlithe egg, the identification results were negative, so it was likely an unknown Pokémon.
After Boss Hong had everything ready, he called his subordinate again to inform him that he would be visiting a distinguished guest the next day and to prepare the elf egg that Xuan Mingtian had requested earlier, so that he could bring it along.
As the sun rises, its rays spread across the world, bringing new vitality to the earth and awakening the future in people's hearts.
As the saying goes, "The plan for the year starts in spring, and the plan for the day starts in the morning." In the suburbs of Yuhong City, at the Xuan family villa, while everyone was still fast asleep, Butler Uncle Xiao had already led Xiyue and the others to begin their day's work.
An hour later, when the smoke from the chimneys began to rise, and when everyone was getting up to wash, Xuan Mingtian was still fast asleep, dreaming of sleeping.
After a long while, two loud slaps pulled Xuan Mingtian out of the middle of the fight.
"Oh, who slapped my face?" Xuan Mingtian roared, only to see the little cutie in front of him staring intently, as if wanting to slap him a few more times to bring his lifelong meal ticket back to his senses.
"If you're awake, hurry up and wash up. Three people are coming over; they're the same group you met yesterday," the little cutie quickly reminded the big smart guy in front of her.
Xuan Mingtian responded and quickly washed and tidied himself up. A quarter of an hour later, dressed in sportswear and holding a Ralts egg, he arrived at the dining table, where everyone had already gathered and were enjoying breakfast, chatting and laughing.
At this moment, Butler Xiao respectfully inquired, "Xiao Tian, Boss Hong from the game center, the head of the Yuhong Dojo, and her granddaughter arrived a dozen minutes ago."
"Let them wait in the living room. I'll have breakfast and then go find them. You entertain them first. Oh, and make them tea with the Seed of Miracles."
After Xuan Mingtian gave him some instructions, Uncle Xiao quickly arranged for Xi Yue and the others to make tea, while he himself went to greet the guests.
At this moment, Jie Zilan offered her opinion: "Xiao Tian, if someone comes to visit, hurry up and eat breakfast. Don't keep the guests waiting."
Xuan Mingtian turned his head in confusion to look at Xiao Lan and Jun Sha'en, but the next moment his eyes were fixed on them, because they were so beautiful today.
The amber-colored dress accentuated Jun Sha'en's soft and smooth skin, while her slender waist perfectly outlined her alluring figure. The simple design of the skirt further emphasized her slim waist and long, beautiful legs.
Xiao Lan had wavy golden hair, phoenix eyebrows like the moon, and a pair of beautiful eyes gazing affectionately at Xuan Mingtian. She had a delicate nose, slightly flushed cheeks, cherry lips that exhaled like orchids, and an oval face that was extremely beautiful. Her skin was as smooth as frost and snow, like a goddess emerging from the water.
Xuan Mingtian looked at their makeup today, and his heart suddenly fluttered; it was the feeling of being smitten. At the same time, Xuan Mingtian was completely unaware that the people around him were watching him.
"Xiao Tian, Xiao Tian, wake up quickly."
Xiao Gang kept shouting beside him, but to no avail. He could only turn his gaze to the little cutie.
After receiving Xiaogang's signal, the little cutie, who had transformed into a wind chime, raised her hand and clapd.
"Oh, little cutie, what are you up to now?" But Xuan Mingtian's voice gradually decreased because he realized that everyone's eyes were focused on him.
Xuan Mingtian said awkwardly, "I'm sorry everyone, I was a little stunned just now."
Jie Zilan quickly came to the rescue, saying, "Then you should eat quickly, don't keep the guests waiting."
After Xuan Mingtian nodded in agreement, he immediately ran to sit down between Jun Sha'en and Xiao Lan, which made everyone present squeal with delight. After sitting down, he did not forget to praise the two of them for their outfits today, which made the two of them very happy. However, Hanako, who was watching this scene, felt a little jealous for some reason.
A breakfast that should have taken 10 minutes took Xuan Mingtian a full 15 minutes to prepare. If it weren't for Jun Sha'en's insistence, Xuan Mingtian would have stayed there indefinitely. After all, with a beautiful woman by his side, it didn't matter if it took a little longer.
When Xuan Mingtian arrived in the living room, he immediately saw three figures sitting on the sofa chatting. These three were the burly Boss Hong, the increasingly frail Grandma Li, and the innocent Li Jia.
Upon approaching the two, Xuan Mingtian apologized first: "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, you three. Little cutie, go to my backpack and get two Miracle Tree Fruits."
Xuan Mingtian's words were still ringing in her ears when the little cutie quickly floated back to her room.
"Xiao Tian, thank you so much. I'm finally able to plant a Miracle Tree in my lifetime. Please accept this reward from me." Although Grandma Li was getting old, her smile was as bright as a flower. She then took out two contracts and her treasured Alliance Black Card, and handed them to Xuan Mingtian.
Mr. Hong, who was watching this scene from the side, narrowed his eyes and was immediately filled with shock.
Xuan Mingtian looked at the things in front of him and was speechless. After all, he was just a child. How could he be exposed to these things so early?
Then Xuan Mingtian called out "Uncle Xiao," and the butler Uncle Xiao immediately understood and picked up the alliance card and contract on the table to check them.
A moment later, Uncle Xiao put his mouth to Xuan Mingtian's ear and said, "Xiao Tian, there's no problem with the contract. It's 50% of the annual revenue from both industries, and there's 20 billion in the alliance card."
After Uncle Xiao finished his report, Xuan Mingtian nodded and said, "Grandma Li, I've already said I only need 10 billion. Don't argue. Consider the remaining 10 billion as my investment in you. At this stage, you should spend the money on it so that it can grow quickly. Uncle Xiao, take 10 billion from the card and return it to Grandma Li."
"Xiao Tian, thank you. You can come to my granddaughter if you need anything in the future." Grandma Li's words of gratitude left Xuan Mingtian speechless.
Xuan Mingtian thought to himself, "I wonder where this old woman got her car. She actually wants to drive me to her granddaughter's place, and the little girl is already blushing and looking at me. She's really a shrew."
"Look, my little cutie is here! Everyone come and have some watermelon, come and try it. It's a specialty of my family." Xuan Mingtian was very fortunate at this moment, because the little cutie arrived just in time. Otherwise, he would have been so embarrassed that he could have dug out a three-bedroom, two-living-room house.
After the three of them tasted the tree fruit, Lijia suddenly exclaimed, "Grandma, this tree fruit is so delicious! It's sweet and sticky, and it's the best tree fruit I've ever tasted."
Boss Hong chimed in, "Miss Lijia is right. This can indeed be called the most delicious tree fruit. Young Master Xuan, these seeds must be quite special as well. The tea we just drank also had a similar taste."
“Mr. Hong, you’re right. The tea I just brewed was made with seeds from the Miracle Tree Fruit. However, these seeds have undergone special treatment, so they can only be used for brewing tea, milk tea, seasoning, and making pastries.” Xuan Mingtian looked at him with an appreciative expression. No wonder he owns such a large game city; he must be someone who frequently enjoys fine dining.
"Ah, Young Master Xuan, you flatter me. I just enjoy eating good food, so I was able to appreciate this flavor. Young Master Xuan, could you sell me some seeds to make tea?" Boss Hong asked with a hint of pleading.
Grandma Li also asked, "Yes, Xiaotian, why don't you sell some to us? The tea made from your seeds tastes much better than the ones from the Alliance, and it makes you feel incredibly energetic. It's practically an essential item for researchers."
“Grandma Li, you’re right. After all, the Miracle Trees of the Alliance and other great families all grew from the seeds of my family’s tree. There’s no need to buy them, since my family doesn’t sell Miracle Seeds. However, I can give each of you 20 jin.” Xuan Mingtian’s words carried a hint of disdain for the Alliance’s Miracle Tree, while also stating definitively that the Miracle Seeds would not be sold.
The two felt a pang of sadness upon hearing the first half of the sentence, but the second half filled them with excitement, their emotions fluctuating wildly like a rollercoaster.
However, neither of them were impolite. When they heard that they would be given 20 jin each, they immediately expressed their sincere gratitude to Xuan Mingtian. After all, the Miracle Seed of the Alliance could sell for 2 million per jin on the black market, let alone the price of the Miracle Seed of the Mother Tree.
