For the first time, Luther knew that the league's competition committee had such a lenient control. Today, it was Ron who came to discuss business with Luther on behalf of the league.
There is no one on the tournament committee, so why did the chairman come forward in person?
"Don't be surprised. The competition committee is responsible for connecting with the elite trainers selected by the Suzuran Tournament. The committee can have a hand in the affairs of these trainers."
"As the winner of this year's Lily of the Valley Conference, and it's a big business like buying an island, the people below you don't have enough authority. It's normal for Chairman Ron to personally come forward." Sirona explained.
The location was set at Sirona's small villa on Lily of the Valley. It was obvious that the alliance hoped that the negotiations between the two parties could be conducted in a more pleasant and less formal environment.
"Ha, I don't have the conditions to buy an island?"
As soon as he sat down, Ron's words confused Luther.
Ron explained unhurriedly: "Do you remember what I told you at the celebration banquet last time?"
"Favors are favors, work is work, they can't be discussed together." Ron looked into Luther's eyes and repeated.
"I'm buying an island, and it's not like I'm not paying for it. Why do I just say this?" Luther asked.
In response to Luther's question, Ron explained it in detail.
Unlike those remote islands, the island Luther wants to buy is adjacent to Suzuran Island. Although it has not been further developed, it is indeed on the list of further development by the Sinnoh Alliance.
Although Luther saved many high-level leaders of the alliance that night, they all wanted to return the favor as soon as possible and be relieved.
However, they hope that Luther can make a gesture to make Luther's identity more recognized both inside and outside the alliance.
In this way, Luther bought the island, and the ownership rights belonged to Luther. However, Luther was from the Sinnoh Alliance, so it could be considered as indirectly helping the people of Sinnoh to open up wasteland.
Otherwise, although Luther is the winner of the Lily of the Valley Conference, he has made no contribution to the alliance and hastily sold an island close to Lily of the Valley to Luther. What would outsiders think?
The senior management did not want others to interpret it as a naked favor transaction.
After the headache-inducing twists and turns, after Ron finished explaining the concerns of the higher-ups, Luther had a thorough understanding.
"There have been rumors in the alliance that you don't want to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings and are living in retirement. Is it true?" Ron asked.
Luther touched his head and said nothing, but Ron already understood what Luther meant.
Ron spoke: "I don't know what happened, but this year's talented trainers have lost interest in challenging the Four Heavenly Kings and Sirona."
"Misaki left Sinnoh without saying a word, and she doesn't know where she went."
"Xiao Zhi rejected the invitation from the Sinnoh Alliance and continued his travels, saying that he would continue to hone his strength."
"Dakdo feels that he is not qualified to challenge yet, and he also bluntly said that he does not like to join the alliance."
"You are more direct. As the winner, you have the right to directly challenge the Four Heavenly Kings and the champion, but you are unwilling to use it."
"Today's young people are really weird. When I was traveling, when I got such an opportunity, I wanted to break through the league, win the championship, and prove my strength, but none of you were interested at all."
Ron glanced at Sirona: "Is this the effect of bad example?"
Sirona, who was drinking orange water, was stunned for a moment and became furious.
"Ron, what do you mean?" Sirona asked, "What do you mean by a bad example? Do you mean that I, the champion, did not do well? Is it because my strength is not good enough, or my ability is not outstanding enough."
"Misaki and Luther were both discovered by me. One of them is a winner, and the other is a future star with outstanding talent and hard work. Look at the two of them. Besides, I am a bad role model."
Such quarrels have become a daily occurrence after Sirona became the champion, and Ron has learned how to deal with them.
Ignoring Sirona's voice, Ron continued to discuss the island with Luther.
Luther also understood that he needed to make a gesture so that the senior officials could repay the favor in a softer way instead of a harsh way.
Before Ron came, he had already prepared the tasks that the alliance needed to complete in the near future. He even carefully helped Luther write down what needed to be done for each task, the time required, and the salary that the alliance would pay him.
"For three months, we will go to the Hoenn area, work with the Hoenn Alliance and Interpol to investigate the movements of the remnants of Team Lava and Team Ocean, and work hard to assist in the pursuit."
"Carlos Region Ecological Observation Mission: Protecting and assisting scholars in the Carlos Region to enable them to safely collect data needed for research over a three-month period."
"For one month, we will combat the theft of wild elves in Kanto City and assist the forest rangers to ensure that the elves in the forest farm are not harmed by poachers."
"Within two months, assist the forest rangers in the Hezhong area to prevent illegal logging and elf poaching in forest farms."
Luther was dazzled by the series of foreign assignments. Only now did he realize that the tasks that alliance members had to do were so complicated.
According to Ron, manpower is always in short supply.
There are too many areas that need to be taken care of in each region, and even if the expatriate members of each alliance are active, they will not be able to take care of everything.
Moreover, not everyone can take on these tasks that are somewhat risky to execute.
Luther had sharp eyes, glanced at the task list, took out his mobile phone and searched the map.
Ron looked at Luther's cell phone, then looked at Luther's thoughtful look, and asked, "Have you made a decision?"
"That's it, I'm going to Qiuye Town."
For a period of two months, we assisted the forest rangers at the forest farm near Qiuye Town to observe the ecology of elves in the forest farm and strictly prevent illegal logging and poaching.
Qiuye Town is in Fengyuan, and not far from Qiuye Town is the famous Meteor Falls.
Ron glanced at it and helped Luther register directly.
The alliance's demands put an end to Luther's idea of fishing, but for the sake of his own island, Luther felt it was worth it.
"I need to say something more. The mission is not over once. I hope you can maintain it in the next three years."
"Of course, we have also given you some convenience. After you confirm the purchase of the island, you can officially take care of the island and start your own construction. You do not need to wait until three years later."
Luther breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the alliance would be stuck with this time and force him to wait until three years before he could go to the island and start construction.
After all the prerequisites for buying an island have been negotiated, the next step is the most important step.
Ron took out a stack of documents from his backpack and pulled out one of them: "Since this island is on the east side of Suzulan Island, we will use Suzulan East Island as the code name. Of course, you can decide the island name in the future."
Afterwards, you can contact the alliance for changes."
"After discussions between the finance and land departments of the Sinnoh Alliance, the selling price of Suzuran East Island is 37 million alliance coins."
"After the sale, the Sinnoh Alliance will improve the basic configuration of the island as usual. The alliance will bear this part of the cost."
Ron turned the document to Luther, held his chin, and said: "Thirty-seven million alliance coins, please...how do you want to pay?"
Mai looked at her and Luther's small treasury, and cold sweat dropped.
Luther and Mai have saved a total of 2.1 million alliance coins so far, most of which came from the business contract negotiated with the Soramu family.
