Trainer? I’m just an ordinary hot spring owner.

Although they are members of Team Rocket and although they are villains, the moral standards of these three are unexpectedly higher than that of most people. Even in the Pokémon world full of Assassins, the moral standards of these three are still quite high.
Especially when it comes to matters related to Pokémon, holy light emanates from his entire body.
The fact that they bought a ticket for Meowth and Frog when they came to Alola is enough to show their love for Pokémon.
Kojiro can even be called a Pokémon succubus. All the Pokémon he captured followed him voluntarily. If he scored a goal, he would be considered very popular. He is only one step behind Jiang.
After hearing the story about Jiang Cheng, these people, especially those who were just preparing to take advantage of his weakness to deal with him, felt that the half bowl of rice porridge in their hands was as heavy as a thousand pounds.
It’s the kind of thing that makes me want to slap myself twice when I wake up from a dream in the middle of the night.
“I’m sorry, I told you unnecessary things. I hope I bothered you. I’ll go inside to help. When you’re done eating, just let me know.”
Lilia knew she had said something wrong and felt bad, so she wanted to go to Jiang Cheng to confess.
And after she left, the trio looked at each other.
Meowth was the first to speak up. As a Pokémon, his thoughts were simpler: “I feel like I can’t bring myself to do it, meow. I think we did something wrong, meow.”
“That’s right, he obviously lost his family, and we still provoked him like this.” Kojiro felt a little guilty.
Among the three, Musashi, who lost her mother when she was young, is the one who can best understand Jiang Cheng’s feelings. At this moment, her expression is complicated, but she quickly hardens her heart.
“It’s very simple. Can’t we just compensate him?”
“Compensate him?”
The two men looked at Musashi, not knowing what to do.
“Look, we came here to get closer to this little brat, right?”
“That’s right”
“So, now we also know each other’s weakness of losing our parents, right?”
“Well… I think we should still…” Kojiro and Meowth were hesitant to speak.
“Stop talking nonsense. Of course I won’t take advantage of this. Who do you think I am?” Musashi glanced at them unhappily. “What I mean is that we have already achieved the first step of getting close to him. So we have to work harder to get closer to him. It is reasonable, right?”
“That’s exactly what you said.”
“So we just need to be nicer to this brat and take better care of him, isn’t that easy? When we get to Team Rocket, won’t we all be a family?”
“It really is!”
Suddenly, their eyes lit up and their minds opened up! Aren’t we all a family on Team Rocket? Although you lost that family member, you still have us in your future!
The three of them confirmed with each other’s eyes and decided to start trying to win each other’s favor.
Lilia came to Jiang Cheng who was busy preparing food and said, “Jiang Cheng, I want to apologize to you.”
“Apologize? To me? Why?” Jiang Cheng was a little confused.
“Just now, I told them your past story without your consent. I think this is very bad for you… I am really sorry!”
Lilia bowed deeply to Jiang Cheng, feeling a little nervous. Would Jiang Cheng be angry? Would he be disappointed in her? As long as he didn’t ignore her, it would be fine…
Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but laugh. She actually came to apologize specifically for something like this. Lilia was really a kind girl. “I see. But, Lilia, you mean well. It’s not a big deal. I forgive you. I hope you don’t take it to heart. Compared to my past, what I’m experiencing now with you, Lilia, is more important to me.”
A smile immediately appeared on Lilia’s face. She looked at Jiang Cheng and nodded heavily: “Yes! I understand!”
After saying that, she immediately came to the kitchen and said, “Let me help too.”
“Hmm? No, no, I can handle it by myself.”
“You still have to arrange for those new employees, right? Leave it to me. Go quickly, they are waiting for you outside!”
“How can I let you…”
“Hey, go ahead!”
Jiang Cheng was forcibly “driven” out of the kitchen and came in front of several people. The three of them were gathered together to discuss how to implement the plan of taking over the body – as the name suggests, it is to join Jiang Cheng’s hot spring center, and then run it as their own hot spring center, hold the actual control of the hot spring center in their own hands, and completely turn Jiang Cheng into a shell boss.
Of course, considering the other party’s previous behavior, it is not impossible for them to treat Jiang Cheng well and comfort him during this period.
If Jiang Cheng knew the plans in their minds, he would definitely sigh and say that they are indeed the talents of the Rockets and have amazing wisdom.
“Ladies and gentlemen, sorry for keeping you waiting. I’m sorry I couldn’t take care of you just now. It was my negligence.” Jiang Cheng’s sincere words interrupted the artistic imagination of several people and he quickly turned around.
“No, no, no, it’s us who are disturbing you.”
The three of them quickly waved their hands, indicating that they did not want to disturb them.
“Have you all finished eating?” Jiang Cheng looked at the tableware in the hands of the three people.
“We’re done eating.” The three of them cleaned up the dishes in their hands like a whirlwind: “Where should we put this?”
“Just follow me.” Jiang Cheng led the way, and the other three followed closely behind. The first thing they saw was the open central kitchen in the hall.
“Just put the dishes in the dishwasher, it will clean them automatically without you having to worry too much.”
The three of them quickly put the four sets of tableware in their hands into the dishwasher one by one.
“This is your first day here. I’ll take you to get familiar with the environment first, and then tell you what your job is about. How about that?”
Jiang Cheng looked at the three men. He had no doubt about the abilities of these three guys. They might be lacking in catching Pokémon, but as classic funny characters, just like Tom the cat who can do everything except catching mice, these three are also proficient in everything except catching Pikachu.
Especially when it comes to doing business, they are truly geniuses. They can always find the right business blue ocean and take the initiative. All the money they have earned from making those disposable large robots over the years has been earned by them.
Jiang Cheng is naturally prepared to make the best use of his resources and put talents in the right positions.
As for why I want to accept these three enemies, it is better to keep them under my own nose. If I let them go, who knows what trouble they will make. Maybe a Gundam will suddenly drop from the sky and make a big hole in the roof of my hot spring center. Then I will have to spend money to find someone to repair it.
“Of course no problem!” The three of them patted their chests, quite confidently.
“Well, please follow me, I will tell you about the configuration of the hot spring hall…”
Next, Jiang Cheng took the three of them around the hot spring hall and gave them a brief introduction to the facilities inside. As Jiang Cheng continued his introduction, the three of them showed obvious interest in their eyes, especially Meow Meow, who was almost unable to walk as he looked at the Pokémon massage machine.
Jiang Cheng introduced the massage machine as he walked. He turned his head and saw Meow Meow still staring at the Pokémon massage machine. “You can try the massage machine yourself after work. We don’t have many employee benefits to offer you in the hot spring center. This is one of them.”
“We can come and experience it casually, meow?” Meow Meow looked surprised.
“Sure, you can try.”
When Meow Meow heard Jiang Cheng’s words, he decisively climbed onto the massager. After the massager detected Meow Meow, it immediately started to act: [Begin to adapt the Pokémon’s body shape…]
Jiang Cheng watched Miaomiao get into the mood, and continued to lead the duo towards the lobby:
“Your main duties are, first, keeping accounts at the front desk, mainly receiving customers and answering their questions; second, selling snacks, drinks, and desserts in the store; third, serving customers who need back scrubbing services. Of course, there are relatively few such customers, as customers who come to soak in hot springs are generally clean.”
After saying that, he looked at the two of them and said, “How is it, are there any difficulties?”
Chapter 242: Meow Meow’s Persuasion to Study (add 500 words, just refresh)
Listening to Jiang Cheng’s words, the two looked at each other and clearly saw the surprise in each other’s eyes.
It’s not that the two men are unfamiliar with the business. On the contrary, having done countless businesses, they are quite knowledgeable. The work tasks assigned to them by Jiang Cheng are all the most important positions in the hot spring center!
Especially the cashier, which can be said to be the main source of power for the hot spring spa owner!
It can be said that whoever controls the cash register controls the hot spring center!
They were just discussing how to slowly gain Jiang Cheng’s trust so that he would slowly hand over the cashiering rights to them. Unexpectedly, before they even started to act, the other party directly delivered this important position to them!
They couldn’t help but feel a little dizzy at the surprise that came to their doorstep.
“You two, you two?” Jiang Cheng looked at the two people with dazed faces, wondering what they were suddenly in a daze about.
“Is my request too much? Do you want to change to something simpler…”
“No, no, no, no, we think the position just now is just right for us!” Hearing that Jiang Cheng was about to go back on his word, the two hurriedly tried to stop him.
“Hey, Director, how did you know that I used to be a cashier? I’m very familiar with this business. Just leave it to us and you can rest assured!”
“That’s right, that’s exactly our strengths, Director. You’ve found the right person to hand it over to us.”
“Is that so?” Jiang Cheng nodded with some “surprise” but also great satisfaction: “That’s good, if you can do it, that would be the best, and it would also help me share a lot of pressure.”
“Then this task will be left to the two of you!”
“Okay, thank you, Director!”
The duo looked at each other, they didn’t expect to make the plan go smoothly so quickly, win!
Jiang Cheng turned around and tried his best to hide the expression on his face. Great, great, so soon I have horses and cows to help me with the work.
As for accounting, Jiang Cheng has his own system that automatically keeps track of the balance. Sitting in front of the cash register, Jiang Cheng plays the role of a financial worker. Communicating with people to sell goods is a big challenge for him as a single person, so he shortens his business hours to reserve some time for himself to recover his energy and spend time with Pokémon.
Now that he has a little genius to help him with the work, Jiang Cheng can free up his hands and do more things.
Of course, if Jiang Cheng needs to go out, I believe these people probably won’t stay there honestly. I still have to recruit some more Pokémon employees later. Pokémon are much more reliable than people. Right now, these people can be used as top-notch cattle and horses in emergencies.
Boss Sakaki, let me lend you my talents for a while.
win!
The duo was arranged, but Meow Meow and Jiang Cheng had other plans.
To Jiang Cheng, Meowth’s value is undoubtedly higher than that of Musashi and Kojiro combined. Just because it is a talking Pokémon, it is extremely precious. In the Pokémon world, there are no more than a handful of talking Pokémon, and Meowth is one of them.
Jiang Cheng found Miaomiao, who had just experienced the service of the Pokémon massage machine and felt soft all over.
“Meow meow?”
“Hmm? Ah, hello, Director, meow!”
Jiang Cheng squatted down and looked at it curiously: “I’ve wanted to say this before, meow meow, you can actually talk, so magical, this is the first time I’ve seen a Pokémon that can talk, it’s really amazing…”
“Ahaha, no, I was just talking.” Meow Meow waved her hand gently, with a look on her face that asked you to praise me more.
“It must be difficult to learn all this, right? Meowth is also a very determined Pokémon, really amazing.”
“Meow hahaha, this…hahaha…even if you praise me like this, I won’t go easy on you, meow…”
“Soft hands?”
“Ah…..what I mean is, I can also give massages, meow. I’m very strong, meow. I won’t relax just because of your praise, meow.” Meow Meow was a little flustered. How could she have said the truth? She quickly tried to make up for it, but at the same time she was a little alert.
I was almost exposed, meow. This man in front of me is so dangerous, meow. I must be careful with him, meow.
“Actually, I came to Miaomiao because I have something that I need Miaomiao’s help with,” Jiang Cheng revealed his true intentions.
“What’s the matter, meow?” Meow Meow became slightly alert. Could it be something bad?
“It’s like this.” Jiang Cheng gently leaned close to Miaomiao’s ear, raised one hand to cover his mouth, and waved gently, motioning him to listen more.
“Mysterious meow…” Meow Meow glanced forward at the duo of Team Rocket, and thinking that they would not do anything to her, she moved forward.
“Actually, it’s like this… As for me… it’s like this, like this, like this…”
Meow Meow listened and nodded, hmm, hmm…so that’s it, meow!
After a while, Jiang Cheng, who had settled a few people, was completely freed up with employees working. He picked up a book and started reading, while Erguiyan began to shake his head beside him again.
At this moment, Miaomiao just happened to walk over with a swagger.
“Hello, Director, meow.”
“Ah, it’s Meow Meow, hello, what can I do for you?” Jiang Cheng’s acting skills are natural, which he developed when he followed his leader to ask for funds.
“Actually, there’s nothing to do, meow. Is the director reading a book, meow?” Meow Meow’s face was clear as she watched Jiang Cheng and Ergui Yan reading.
It was really not Miaomiao’s wish to come here to act out this scene, but the director promised him that as long as he performed well, he would give him an extra meal during meals, and he could use all the facilities in the hot spring center and even soak in the hot springs. Which Miaomiao could resist such temptation?
So, this is the scene we have now.
“Yes, I’m reading some miscellaneous books while Xiaopeng’er is studying,” Jiang Cheng replied with a smile.
“Boni-ao!” Study!!
Ergui agreed to this, but his eyes were always glancing at the novel in Jiang Cheng’s hand. Obviously, in Ergui’s eyes, the book in Jiang Cheng’s hand was much more interesting than the literacy textbook in his hand.
“Is that so, meow? I don’t know, meow, can I learn from you, the curator, meow?”
“Miaomiao also wants to learn to read?” Jiang Cheng was a little surprised.
