Chapter 002 Hidden BOSS, Uncle Magikarp
Just as Long Ye was about to speak with great joy, reality dealt him a merciless blow
The main industry of the Fujiwara family is the cultivation of rare or special sprites for sale. The courtyard that Ryono observed is merely the outer area of the family estate, thus there are no precious sprites present. If one were to enter the core area of the family, there would be a multitude of various rare sprites.
The commonly seen little sprite, the Kingler, is surprisingly priced at 5,000 yuan each, and there is a requirement to sell 500 of them. Generally speaking, such little sprites are sold with a Poké Ball for only 500 yuan each.
It was only when Longye checked the system at night that he realized he had not only completed a random task titled "First Encounter," but also fulfilled the predetermined task of Light Runner. The random task awarded him 5 achievement points, while the predetermined task granted him a reward of 10 achievement points.
The trials assigned by the family are generally related to the family's business, such as manufacturing a special item, cultivating a few rare sprites, creating new skills for sprites, or investigating specific information about a sprite that the family does not possess, among others. If you do not wish to complete the trial tasks, you can also choose to become a trainer; as long as you can rank among the top four in the sprite competition, it will also be considered as having completed the trial tasks.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry anymore, I'm fine now," Longye said
The luminous sprites in nature are also a key focus of the Fujiwara family, as many of these sprites possess unique characteristics. The Fujiwara family aims to cultivate these luminous sprites and optimize their advantages to produce even better sprites. Naturally, due to their scarcity, most of these sprites are entrusted to the direct descendants of the family for use
This skill is not something that just anyone can acquire by spending money; only those trainers with potential are qualified to purchase the Koi King from the Fujiwara family. In fact, if you think about it, even when my father sold a Koi King to Team Rocket's Kojiro for 30,000 yuan on the St. Anne, it cannot be considered a deception, because that Koi King evolved into a Gyarados on the same day. It is important to note that evolving a Koi King into a Gyarados is extremely difficult, and 30,000 yuan would not be enough to buy a Gyarados under any circumstances.

After resting in bed for two days, Long Ye's injuries had completely healed. During this time, he realized that his seemingly simple adoptive father was far from ordinary.
In this light, Longye suddenly felt that his father was even more remarkable. It is important to note that he is now the head of the Fujiwara family, which means he has completed this trial task. This lecherous uncle has earned at least 2.5 million yuan by using 500 Magikarp. If I could learn this skill, I would truly have no worries about food and drink
No longer will I have to envy Ash for being able to collect the local starter Pokémon wherever he goes, nor will I have to envy those who run around with Dragonite, Garchomp, and Darkrai. From now on, I will be a wealthy individual who can have whatever I desire.
"You little rascal are still so vain, getting up just to look in the mirror," Uncle King Carp said with a smile.
Masaru Fujiwara is the current head of the Fujiwara family, and this giant villa is merely the tip of the iceberg of the Fujiwara family's assets. Masaru Fujiwara enjoys tranquility, which is why he brought his family here for a vacation
Lonely Ryuuya finally has time to examine the fused memories. It turns out that this body is named Fujiwara Ryuuya, and he is seven years old this year. His father, who is Uncle Koi King, is named Fujiwara Masakazu, and his mother is named Sakurai Aya. Based on Uncle Koi King's age, Ryuuya knows that Ash has not yet started his journey, but he cannot accurately determine how many years before the start of the animated storyline it is.
"Father, what was your trial task back then?" Long Ye asked curiously
Ah? Didn't you say that there are many mini dragons in your family? Just give me one directly
Dad, how did you manage to do that? Please teach me.
Looking at the King Carp Uncle in front of him, Long Ye's mind was suddenly filled with countless alpacas running by.
This courtyard is also home to many small sprites, but what Longye sees are mostly common sprites like Pidgey and Caterpie, and of course, there are even more of those Kingler in the river.
In addition to the small sprite industry, the Fujiwara family also focuses on collecting and organizing various materials related to items and sprite skills. Due to this relationship, the Fujiwara family maintains very close ties with renowned researchers from various regions, and many projects are even funded by the family. Therefore, whether it is Dr. Okido from the Kanto region, Dr. Kongmu from the Chengdu region, or Dr. Nanbo from Team Rocket, all have very close connections with the Fujiwara family
However, according to this logic, could it be that Kojiro is a trainer with potential? Longye decided to set this question aside for the time being and ask it later
"What the heck, this is so unfair!" Longye exclaimed directly. It is important to note that not everyone possesses Xiaozhi's luck to frequently encounter shiny Pokémon, especially considering the restrictions on the types of Pokémon. Encountering a shiny Gyarados is already quite difficult, let alone capturing it. If the first task still holds some possibility of being accomplished, then the second task is simply asking for the impossible.
Having lived in this household for a week, Longye has come to accept his current identity. Meanwhile, through his intentional and unintentional inquiries, he has finally learned about his father's identity. It turns out that this Uncle Koi King is actually the greatest hidden BOSS in the world of Pokémon.
For the first time encountering a real little spirit dragon, he was extremely excited, squatting by the riverbank and staring at the King of Carp in the river for a long time without moving, completely oblivious even when the system notified him that he had completed a random task
Such a villa and garden cannot be purchased with just the sale of a King Carp
Moreover, upon reaching this point, Longye finally understood why his father was always selling Magikarp. For the Fujiwara family, Magikarp represents both a legacy, teaching family members not to underestimate even the most ordinary Magikarp, and a certificate for external trade. Longye witnessed a trainer spending 300,000 yuan to purchase a Magikarp, after which his father imparted the "Rock Smash" skill to his Machoke.
I, because I want to become the clan leader and manage the entire family, have been given the trial task of cultivating a shining Gyarados and selling five hundred Magikarp at a price not lower than five thousand yuan each," said Fujiwara Masakazu with a hint of pride.
This is only the first time; afterwards, this uncle disguised a Magikarp as a Feebas to sell to Musashi, and disguised a Jigglypuff as a rare Whimsicott to sell to Kojiro. The most impressive part is that this uncle was actually able to trade a Gloom for Kojiro's Victreebel, considering that Victreebel is the evolved form of Gloom!
As a memorable supporting character in the animated series Pokémon, Longye is well aware of the exploits of Uncle Koi King. On the St. Anne, this uncle was selling Koi Kings that were said to produce gold, and as a result, the foolish Kojiro spent 30,000 yuan to buy one. Later, when the St. Anne sank, the Team Rocket trio initially thought they could escape with this Koi King, but the Koi King, which could only splash around, nearly caused Kojiro and the others to drown. In a fit of anger, Kojiro abandoned the Koi King, which then instantly evolved into Gyarados and used Dragon Rage to blow Team Rocket and Ash away together.

However, fifteen achievement points in the mall can only be exchanged for a few fruit trees, and the road ahead in Longye is long and arduous
Suddenly, Long Ye thought of something. Since this lewd uncle is his own father, would he also end up looking as lewd as him?
After the explanation from the old man, Longye finally understood what the so-called trial tasks were. It turns out that every member of the Fujiwara family must first complete the trial tasks assigned by the family in order to gain the family's support. The tasks for ordinary family members are relatively simple, while the trial tasks for direct descendants are significantly more challenging.
However, although they are horned goldfish, the horned goldfish cultivated by the Fujiwara family are completely different from the wild ones. The family has dedicated personnel who breed horned goldfish with different body colors, such as those that are entirely red with only the tips of their horns being white, or those that are black and white. Although these little creatures do not possess strong combat abilities, they have a high ornamental value, which is why some wealthy individuals are willing to spend tens of thousands to millions to acquire a special horned goldfish
Dad, can you give me a mini dragon right now? I want to start training it immediately
What a deceptive regulation this is! Long Ye thought indignantly
Upon seeing his mother rush in, Longye finally understood why he looked the way he did; it turned out that his appearance resembled that of his mother. Longye couldn't help but think to himself: "This Uncle Koi is quite impressive, being able to marry such a beautiful wife. If it weren't for his looks holding him back, I would definitely be a member of the idol group by now."
These tasks have no time constraints; you can begin to complete your trial tasks as soon as your family members become sensible. If you are talented enough to accomplish them at the age of six or seven, no one will say anything. It simply means that your starting point in the future will be higher.
After learning about the powerful background of his family, Long Ye almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. It seems that the system is really good to me, actually finding such a golden thigh for me to hold on to. You must know that my father is currently the head of the Fujiwara family, so as his son, wouldn't I be able to get any little spirit I want?
After seeing that Long Ye was fine, the two of them gave a few more words of advice before leaving, urging Long Ye to rest well
First and foremost is the place where they live. It was only after Longye was able to walk on the ground that he discovered it was actually a giant villa, and there was an enormous yard surrounding the villa. In the animation, Longye thought that the yard where Doctor Omu raised various small spirits was large enough, but now he realized that his own yard was even bigger than that.
This is not permissible. The ancestral teachings of the Fujiwara family stipulate that in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of family members and to ensure the continuation of the family's enterprises, no material support may be obtained from the family until the family members have completed their trial tasks. This rule must be followed even by me, your father, so do not even think about directly selecting a small spirit from the family
Has Longye woken up? Quickly let mom take a look. Mom has been so worried these past few days. Why are you being so naughty?
Such a person is actually my own father? Am I going to have to sell Magikarp with him in the future?
Long Ye immediately got up to look in the mirror, and fortunately, the young man in the mirror could at least be considered handsome
The small spirits cultivated by the Fujiwara family are not limited to those with great strength; there are rare and highly potential small spirits like Hakuron and Enryu Shark, as well as ordinary small spirits like Horned Goldfish.
The Fujiwara family is a lineage with a long-standing heritage, its history predating that of the Yulong clan in Yanmo City and the Shouhu Lingling Tower clan in Yuanzhu City. It is a top-tier family that even the Elf Alliance does not dare to provoke lightly. However, there is no conflict of interest between the Fujiwara family and the Alliance, allowing both to coexist peacefully.
If you can catch it yourself in the wild, then there is no problem at all said the cheap old man nonchalantly
