Chapter 937: There are many ways to make money
Heath certainly didn't intend to go in and ask why free lunch boxes were provided. Seven lunch boxes were nothing. Compared with the prime location next to the gym, seven lunch boxes were nothing.
This is like in the previous life , someone told you that you can open a restaurant next to the Imperial Palace, but the only requirement is to provide 70 lunch boxes to the staff in the Palace every day, so is this business possible? Of course it is possible, and people will even rush to do it. If you go too far and send pearls as lunch boxes, someone will do it. It is definitely not a joke. Even 700 lunch boxes are willing to do it. So Heath is not such a confused person. He naturally knows the benefits of doing this.
The area next to the gym has always been a prime location. Challengers who come to challenge, apprentices and trainers in the gym, all of these people need to eat. They are not gods who can live in seclusion from worldly matters. So it is profitable to open a restaurant in this place. However, Heath is a little distressed. He doesn't really care about his location. Although business is good when opening a store next to the gym, the problem is that it will also cause him some trouble. It is tiring to have too good business.
However, Heath was looking forward to meeting the gym leader of Chenghua City, Qianli.
This time, Heath planned to learn about the gym in Chenghua City first. After all, Heath was still very curious about the gym master of Chenghua City, Qianli, and his child. He didn't know whether Qianli's child was a boy or a girl. If it was a girl, then it should be Xiaoyao, but if it was a boy, then Heath really didn't know who it was, after all, Heath only remembered Xiaoyao.
Haruka is one of the few protagonists with a strong presence in Heath's impression. Another one he remembers is Misty. However, Misty also benefited from Satoshi's fame. Otherwise, the general audience would not have such a high level of awareness of them. As for Misty, Heath's biggest impression is that in a Pokémon anime he had watched, Misty seemed to have captured a legendary beast? Which one was it? Heath forgot, but he was sure that Misty captured a legendary beast from the Hoenn region, but he could not remember which one it was.
As soon as they arrived at the door of the gym, Charizard was excitedly bumping around in the Poké Ball. Heath's mouth twitched, but he didn't think of this matter all of a sudden. Charizard had a very deep obsession with becoming stronger, so he didn't think that he was going to challenge the gym here, right? That was too outrageous, but looking at Charizard's excitement, Heath felt that Charizard probably really thought so.
This made Heath a little embarrassed. He had been thinking of coming here to take a look, but he didn't expect Charizard to be interested in challenging the gym...
"Big brother, are you here to challenge the gym?" A strange voice came. Heath was stunned for a moment. He turned around and saw a girl looking at him expectantly. Heath thought that he was lucky to meet Xiaoyao, but when he saw the girl's clothes, Heath denied his idea. After all, the girl was wearing patched clothes, which didn't look like Xiaoyao at all. That was Xiaoyao, Qianli's daughter. No matter what, she would not wear such clothes.
She should be a girl from an ordinary family, or a girl from a not-so-well-off family.
But as for the patched clothes, Heath admitted that he had not seen such clothes for a long time. Patching seemed to be a thing of the past in Heath's eyes, so when Heath saw the patches on the girl's body, he showed such a surprised expression.
"Ah... no." Heath shook his head. He didn't really want to challenge the gym. Although he now had battle experience and knew how to make the most of his Pokémon's abilities, Heath really had no interest in fighting. But considering that Charizard was so excited, Heath felt that it seemed okay to .
However, when the girl in front of him heard that Heath was not going to fight, her eyes dimmed a little, but she still cheered up, grabbed her clothes with her hands, looked at Heath and asked a question.
"So, big brother, do you want to know about the information of the Chenghua City gym? I know a lot of things!" The girl said very seriously. Heath was stunned for a moment after hearing it, and then looked at the girl in front of him with a strange expression. Could this girl be an intelligence dealer? After all, what she did now looked like an intelligence dealer.
"Yes, there are some... Do you know why the gym in Chenghua City asks the merchants next door to deliver boxed lunches?" Heath did have some things he wanted to know, and that was the answer to this question. After all, Heath really couldn't understand why the gym in Chenghua City asked the stalls next door to provide boxed lunches, and seven boxed lunches at that. It wasn't much, but Heath was very curious .
"I know this! Because there are seven gym apprentices from poor families in Chenghua Gym, so there is such a request." The girl said with a smile, and Heath nodded after hearing it. This was similar to his idea. Heath also thought so. In his opinion, sending lunch boxes is probably for the people inside. As for who to eat? Those who need to be provided for free are naturally those who are not well-off.
Although Heath didn't know why Chenghua City had such a strange rule, Heath didn't care. It was just seven lunch boxes, so he just gave them. There were always some weird people in this world, and Heath knew it very well. Heath had met a customer who had eaten at his restaurant for a long time and then felt that his restaurant was demolished and he should share the money with him. It can only be said that there are all kinds of weird things in the world, and he was lucky not to have met those weird people.
The girl happily introduced some information about Chenghua City to Heath, including the gym master Mr. Qianli and his daughter Xiaoyao. Heath listened with a smile. It was obvious that this girl was an intelligence provider. She knew the lineups of some gym apprentices and would give some suggestions. At least she was pretty good.
Finally, facing the girl's hopeful eyes, Heath smiled and gave her the money. It was just a little money and it wouldn't matter to him. Besides, he solved the problem without going in. Heath himself was quite happy. However feeling the shaking of the Charizard on his waist, Heath still felt a little overwhelmed. Did he really have to go in and challenge it?
