Chapter 133: Team Building Activity
In these past few days, Audino had come up with numerous schemes to get Yuga to cancel her punishment.
Upon hearing Yuga\'s words, Audino\'s face immediately fell.
"Budew! Budew!"
Seeing her big sister being treated unfairly, Budew hopped over to Yuga, attempting to plead for Audino. Yuga simply pressed it down with his hand, saying, "You better just eat your meal. Leave the adult matters to us."
Budew blinked its small eyes the size of green beans and obediently went back to eating breakfast.
After a few days of strenuous exercise, although Windy was still a bit chubby, he did appear to have lost some weight.
During this time, Windy had been obediently following Yuga\'s orders without any signs of rebellion. He was afraid that if he made even a slight mistake, he might not see his computer for a long time.
So, when it came to the "unjust treatment" Audino, his "comrade," was receiving, Windy dared not plead for her, worried that his actions might bring trouble upon himself.
After finishing breakfast, Yuga walked over to the shop where Dian and Strawberry were already waiting with Sister Koen.
"Sister Koen, to reward you all for your hard work during this time, how about we have a \'company team building\' event?" Yuga suggested.
"Team building?" Suzuki Koen asked in confusion, "What kind of team building are you thinking of?"
Yuga pondered for a moment but couldn\'t come up with anything, so he asked, "What do you think would be good?"
Suzuki Koen thought for a moment, "It\'s summer now. How about we go to the seaside? Since our Verdanturf Town is inland, it\'s rare for us to see the sea."
Yuga really wanted to say that he had already spent quite a few days at sea on his trip to Johto, but considering that team building activities were meant to be enjoyed together, he decided to listen to everyone\'s opinions.
So, Yuga waved his hand to call over Windy, Audino, and Linoone. He said to them, "We\'ve completed most of this month\'s tasks at the Day Care, and we have some free time coming up. I\'m thinking of organizing a team building activity to have some fun. Does anyone have any ideas?"
Upon hearing the prospect of going out to play, Audino and Linoone\'s eyes lit up. However, Windy\'s expression remained unchanged. This hardcore indoor enthusiast wasn\'t interested in any activities that required leaving his room.
Windy wasn\'t interested, Audino and Linoone couldn\'t speak, so no one expressed their opinions.
Seeing everyone quiet, Yuga said, "Since no one has any ideas, how about we go with Sister Koen\'s suggestion of going to the seaside? Does anyone oppose it?"
Audino and Linoone, who had spent their lives inland, had never seen the sea before. They were naturally excited at the idea of going to the seaside and had no objections.
Windy, however, maintained his expressionless face.
"Windy, do you have any thoughts about going to the seaside?" Yuga asked when Windy remained silent and expressionless.
"No," Windy shook his head.
Seeing him like this, Yuga felt that his responsibilities were truly overwhelming. He not only had to provide room, board, and salary to his employees, but he also had to consider their physical and mental well-being.
"If you can go to the seaside this time and have a great time, I\'ll cancel your punishment when you come back," in order to entice Windy to go out and play happily, Yuga used a big move.
"Really?" Windy widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Really!" Yuga nodded.
"I promise I\'ll have a great time."
After saying this, Windy ran off, but it wasn\'t clear what he was going to do.
Seeing Windy turn and run, Yuga sighed deeply, shaking his head. Who was the older one after all?
Seeing Yuga\'s elaborate attempt to trick Windy into going out, Suzuki Koen couldn\'t help but burst into laughter. Yuga helplessly said, "Being a boss is really not easy. I might as well raise a son, it would be easier."
Suzuki Koen teased, "You could just let him be. As long as he\'s doing his job, isn\'t that enough?"
Yuga waved his hand, "Never mind, never mind. Let\'s not talk about this. We\'ll depart the day after tomorrow, and the destination is Lilycove City. Sister Koen, get ready."
After saying that, Yuga turned and left.
Yuga chose the day after tomorrow for departure because there were still some things in the shop that needed to be prepared. Moreover, it was also the last day of Kazuma\'s visit. After that day, the Trapinch would belong to him.
Yuga felt that going out with just him, Suzuki Koen, and Windy was a bit lacking, so he went to his aunt\'s house to ask if his aunt and uncle wanted to join. However, even though it was summer vacation, his aunt and uncle still had to work and had no time.
But he managed to rope in the mischievous little witch Luna, who had nothing to do at home.
Yuga thought: Well, since I have Luna now, it doesn\'t matter if I have Rand, too. So he also informed Rand about the plan.
Before leaving, Yuga also took the time to buy enough Pokéblocks for the Pokémon in the Ecopark to eat during his absence, so they wouldn\'t go hungry.
But to be honest, they wouldn\'t go hungry even without the cubes, as the Ecopark was filled with plenty of fruits that they couldn\'t finish.
However, with their extensive training each day, they needed the Pokéblocks to sustain their increased consumption.
With the decision to go to the seaside made, Yuga spent the next two days explaining the daily training tasks to the Pokémon in the Ecopark. This included the baby Pokémon, the Murkrow, Vulpix, and Houndoom, the Gligars in the sub-ecopark, the Trapinch, the Vibrava, and the Flygon. Each group had their own unique training tasks, which Yuga had to outline for them.
On the morning before departure, Kazuma arrived at YoYo Day Care as usual. When he walked in, he greeted Yuga and Suzuki Koen with a cheerful smile.
After spending half a month with the Trapinch, Kazuma had gained the trust of the Pokémon and agreed to leave with the Trapinch. Yuga was very satisfied with Kazuma\'s performance.
"Today is the day you take the Trapinch with you. Let\'s go through some procedures," Yuga said to Kazuma before Linoone brought the Trapinch over.
The procedures and steps for installment payments had already been discussed with Suzuki Koen, so today they just needed to follow the planned sequence.
Windy had set up a dedicated database. Every Pokémon purchased at YoYo Day Care was recorded in the form of files and stored in this database. This included information about the buyer, the purchase date, and the physical data of the Pokémon.
"Alright," Kazuma nodded and then followed Windy to complete the final procedures for the installment payment.
The Trapinch was priced at 500,000 Pokédollar. Kazuma would gradually transfer this amount into YoYo Day Care\'s account over the next ten years, at a rate of 50,000 Pokédollar per year.
Yuga had set three repayment periods: 5 years, 10 years, and 25 years. For the first two options, Yuga didn\'t charge any interest or additional fees. It was purely a gesture of support. For the 25-year period, due to the long time span, he would charge some interest as compensation. This was also to prevent the Day Care from running short of funds.
