Volume 1 Chapter 548 A Miser
The food in Wanlai Restaurant was indeed worthy of his reputation. Kong Yun was also good at cooking. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to conquer Heimei and White Bamboo 's stomachs. However, the food in Wanlai Restaurant also shone in front of his eyes.
Shopkeeper Tong entered the private room after Xue Yifan left and presented the harvest of Kong Yun's quota auction.
"This is 18.05 million divine pearls. The number of divine pearls obtained from the quota auction will be reduced by half. Please forgive me, Young Master Kong."
Seeing that Kong Yun was the new face of the auction quota, Shopkeeper Tong specifically explained.
Those who were qualified to auction the spots were all nobles in Cosmos City. Wanlai Restaurant didn't want to offend anyone. They all had the same spots. Wanlai Restaurant would charge everyone a certain platform fee. This was also a way for Wanlai Restaurant to make a profit.
This time, the Wanlai Restaurant charged 2.95 million divine pearls for the platform fee, which made Shi Xueren jealous. However, thinking that the Wanlai Restaurant could only make such a quick profit in five years, Shi Xueren was much more balanced.
However, excluding the quota for the auction, Wanlai Restaurant was also a huge money-gathering machine. Every year, the food ingredients purchased from its Shunjin Trading Firm would consume a large amount of divine pearls.
Shi Xueren turned her jealousy towards Wanlai Restaurant's earnings into her appetite and continued to plunder the Wanlai Restaurant's specialties on the table.
Actually, although Shi Xueren ordered a lot of dishes, the top-grade dishes of Wanlai Restaurant were small and exquisite. After all, there weren't many of them. Although Shi Xueren was a foodie, she was definitely not a big stomach king.
Kong Yun had been paying attention to the situation in the auction house, but he was busy solving Xue Yifan's problem. In the blink of an eye, Shi Xueren had already eaten half of the delicacies.
"Girls should pay attention to their image!" Kong Yun immediately joined the group that cleaned the dining table. Many of the food on the table was filled with dense energy. After eating it, Kong Yun could even feel that his strength had improved slightly.
After a sumptuous meal, neither of them had the image of a bulging belly.
When they settled the bill, the two of them had eaten 1.35 million yuan in one meal, which could be considered extravagant consumption.
The black-clothed youth who bought his spot had already been sent away by Shopkeeper Tong. He gave the other party a contact jade token and contacted the other party the next day.
Shopkeeper Tong personally escorted the two distinguished guests out of the restaurant. Today, Wanlai Restaurant earned quite a bit, and even Shopkeeper Tong's mood became better.
"Come again next time, both of you!"
After Shopkeeper Tong returned, Shi Xueren blushed and said to Kong Yun, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ordered so many delicious dishes."
"It's fine, I'll treat it as feeding the pigs." Kong Yun raised the corner of his mouth and raised his eyebrows towards Shi Xueren.
Shi Xueren was furious. It was Kong Yun who had promised to treat her to dinner, but now he hated eating too much. What kind of reason was this?
"I still have the money for your quota auction. I'll charge you a million dollars for mental damage just by laughing at me. It's fine. Just laugh. I can still afford this pain."
After saying that, Shi Xueren pretended to wipe away her tears.
Kong Yun wanted to laugh when he saw this, but Xue Ren had clearly revealed his fanatical nature.
Kong Yun did not live up to her wishes. He no longer laughed at Shi Xueren with a stiff face and walked straight to his own residence.
This time, it was Shi Xueren's turn to be anxious. If she did not have a proper reason to grab Kong Yun's money without permission, her father would probably break her leg.
However, the spatial ring in his hand contained tens of millions of divine pearls. It was both hot and very attractive.
"Kong Yun, you must be laughing at me! Aren't you very powerful? Continue laughing at me!"
Over ten thousand wild horses galloped past Kong Yun's heart. At least Shi Xue Ren was also the eldest young miss of Shun Jin Trading Firm. However, looking at her current appearance, she was so short of money that she had become like this ever since she was young!
Looking at Shi Xueren's expression and words, the true colors of the wealthy were revealed. Kong Yun felt that the Shi Clan had a successor. At the very least, if the Shunjin Trading Firm fell into Shi Xueren's hands, it would definitely not close down. With such shameless speed, it would definitely become the number one trading firm in Cosmos City very quickly.
Along the way, Kong Yun still managed to survive, not letting Shi Xueren get any advantage.
After arriving at his residence, Shi Xueren could only reluctantly return the spatial ring containing more than 10 million divine pearls to Kong Yun.
"Goodbye, I will miss you!" Shi Xueren said goodbye to the spatial ring in Kong Yun's hand. Her gaze was as reluctant to part as if she was looking at a former lover.
"Hurry up and go back. In the end, it has no fate with you!" Kong Yun put away the ring and said goodbye to Shi Xueren before returning to his residence.
Kong Yun returned to his residence to rest in peace of mind, ignoring Shi Xueren. Anyway, this was the territory of Shunjin Trading Firm. Uncle Cai would definitely send the eldest young miss back.
They didn't notice that when Shi Wu Cheng saw them leave the second floor, he also paid the bill and followed the two of them.
Shi Wu Cheng had never seen Shi Xueren have so many expressions when he was with other men. He had never seen such a crafty expression before. Now that Shi Xueren had made these expressions because of a man who suddenly appeared, the anger in Shi Wu Cheng 's heart couldn't help but ignite.
He and Shi Xueren were childhood sweethearts, but he had never seen Shi Xueren's expression bloom so much towards him since he grew up. In front of him, Shi Xueren was mostly cold. Today, Shi Xueren made him go crazy with jealousy.
"Kong Yun, I'll show you tomorrow!" Shi Wu Cheng did not walk towards the Shi Manor, but instead walked in another direction.
One night passed quickly. Kong Yun went home and closed his eyes to cultivate. He needed time to digest all the delicacies he ate at the Wanlai Restaurant. After one night, he adjusted his body to its best condition.
He hadn't forgotten about the Golden Wind Jade Dew from the Seventh Mother's banquet. The effect of absorbing the Golden Wind Jade Dew after adjusting his body to its optimal state would definitely reach its peak. Such a treasure couldn't be wasted in the slightest.
It was precisely because of this that Kong Yun was able to achieve his current accomplishments. He didn't waste any cultivation resources and maximized the use of the resources in his hands.
The next day, Kong Yun didn't go with Shi Xueren. The two of them had people they wanted to bring along, so they didn't set off together. Moreover, Shi Wu Cheng had always looked down on Kong Yun. Shi Xueren was also afraid that Shi Wu Cheng would do something to offend Kong Yun again.
Kong Yun directly used the jade token to contact the black-clothed youth who had taken his jade token yesterday. Not long after, the black-clothed youth appeared in front of Kong Yun. It seemed that he had to wait for Kong Yun's message all the time, and immediately rushed over to see Kong Yun as soon as he received the news.
From this speed, it could be seen how attractive the Seventh Mother's banquet was to the geniuses of Cosmos City .
"My name is Lin Yun. Thank you for giving me the spot yesterday."
"There's no need to thank me. You bought this spot based on your strength. It has nothing to do with me."
Kong Yun was honest. The black-clothed youth spent 19 million yuan to win his spot. It was entirely up to him. He accepted the black-clothed youth's divine pearl. There was no question of who owed whom between the two of them. It was just the most ordinary transaction relationship.
The black-clothed youth saw that Kong Yun was straightforward and straightforward, and his good impression of Kong Yun increased even more.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Lai Chun Pavilion, they discovered that Shi Xueren had already arrived, and Shi Wu Cheng was still standing beside him, unwilling to stand aside.
There was no choice. Those who used the quota had to go in with the person holding the invitation card. Otherwise, they would definitely be blocked by the people from the Lai Chun Pavilion.
Shi Wu Cheng didn't want to make such a fool of himself, so he could only accompany Shi Xueren here and wait for Kong Yun's arrival.
"Brother Kong, you're here." Shi Xueren ran over enthusiastically, causing Kong Yun's entire body to tremble. Normally, Shi Xueren was not like this. With a shout from Brother Kong, his hair stood on end.
Seeing Kong Yun's embarrassment, Shi Xueren laughed happily.
If Kong Yun didn't understand that Shi Xueren was deliberately messing with him, then his life would be in vain.
"Little sister, let big brother pinch your face."
She was about to reach out to touch Shi Xueren's face when she said that, causing Shi Xueren's face to turn pale from fear, and she quickly dodged Kong Yun's claws.
Shi Wu Cheng slowly walked over to a blonde man and said flatteringly, "Brother Zheng Hao, even if this brat wanted to touch my sister, I had already warned him that Xue Ren is your woman, but he didn't listen at all. He even said that you are not worthy of Xue Ren."
"Pa!"
Zheng Hao slapped Shi Wu Cheng on the head, "Did you call Xue Ren?"
Shi Wu Cheng lowered his head when he was slapped. A trace of ruthlessness flashed through his eyes. It was worth it to endure now. As long as Zheng Hao and Kong Yun became mortal enemies, then his Shi Wu Cheng would become the biggest winner.
"Yes, only you, Xue Ren, are worthy to call me that." Shi Wu Cheng nodded and bowed. The Zheng Clan behind Zheng Hao could be considered one of the top three forces in Cosmos City. With his Shi Clan's appearance, he was indeed not as noble as the others.
After being provoked by Zheng Hao, he left Zheng Hao's side. He still had to rely on Shi Xueren's invitation card to attend the Seventh Mother's party. No matter how thorny Kong Yun's eyes were, he had to attend the party first. After all, improving himself was the most important thing.
Kong Yun walked back and forth in the Spring Pavilion, followed by the black-clothed youth. Today, the Spring Pavilion no longer had the coquettish aura it used to have, but it gave off an elegant feeling.
"Young Master Kong, the invitation has been verified. You can bring someone inside now."
After verifying Kong Yun, the servant at the entrance of the Spring Pavilion released the black-clothed youth that Kong Yun had brought along.
The two of them easily entered the Lai Chun Pavilion. Seeing that Kong Yun and Shi Wu Cheng had already entered the Lai Chun Pavilion, Shi Xueren also pulled Shi Wu Cheng into the Spring Pavilion. They hadn't settled their debts with Kong Yun, so they couldn't just let Kong Yun go.
It wasn't just them. Many people wanted to see Seventh Mother 's true appearance as soon as possible. Before Shi Wu Cheng entered, he winked at Zheng Hao, signaling him to pay attention to Shi Xue Ren's location. Then, he turned around and followed Shi Xue Ren into the Spring Arrival Pavilion.
