Volume 1 Chapter 545 Wanlai Restaurant
As soon as Kong Yun entered the Wanlai Restaurant, he immediately felt his horizons widen. Different from the exquisite warmth of the Lai Chun Pavilion, the Wanlai Restaurant was a model of luxury. Just from the decoration, the Wanlai Restaurant had earned quite a bit of money.
There was also a spatial array set up inside. The population of Cosmos City was not a small number. Even the number of young geniuses was considerable. If the s.p.a.ce inside Wanlai Restaurant wasn't large, it wouldn't be able to accommodate so many people.
Many young geniuses who had not received invitations had come here today in order to have a chance to obtain a small number of spots for sale at a time.
If s.h.i.+ Xueren hadn't brought him here, he might have gone to the market and asked how to sell the quotas.
Many of the young geniuses were not only because of Cosmos City's geniuses at the gathering, but also because they wanted to take a closer look at Seventh Mother .
Seventh Mother's reputation as the number one beauty in Cosmos City was not for fame, but for beauty.
Anyone who performs an excellent job at the party may win the favor of Seventh Mother.
After all, Seventh Mother also represented a hidden force behind her. It seemed that the Spring Pavilion had always been strong, and this force could not be underestimated.
Many people partic.i.p.ated in the Cosmos City Martial Compet.i.tion not only for the sake of obtaining the top ten rewards, but also for the sake of winning the favor of great figures.
Evidently, in the Divine Dao, including the Cosmos City , there was no way for a single person to mix up. If you were favored by a great figure, you would know the results of the various powers' own exploration of the Divine Dao and have the chance to go to a secret realm that was exclusively occupied by the great powers.
The four cultivation resources of the Couple of Wealth technique instantly possessed the Couple of Wealth technique. As long as you were outstanding enough, all three of them would be provided by major powers. The prerequisite was for them to see the value of their investment, just like the Shunjin Trading Firm had decided to invest in Kong Yun in advance.
Kong Yun had the possibility of stepping into the Undying Immortal Realm, so Shunjin Trading Firm had spared no effort to reach a cooperation with Kong Yun from the beginning. The strong support of Shunjin Trading Firm was not empty words.
An expert's advancement to a faction was significant, so every faction would choose a young expert they liked in the Cosmos City tournament and issue an invitation. As long as they didn't harm the faction's foundation, they would definitely be able to make a profit without losing money.
"There are a total of three spots today. Young Master, please prepare the divine pearl and begin the auction in two hours!"
After saying that, the shopkeeper of the restaurant also retreated, and the noisy discussion in the restaurant resumed.
Kong Yun originally thought that there would be various requirements for the quota sale, or perhaps it would be in the form of a barter. He didn't expect that it would be a small-scale auction. It would be given to whoever had more money.
However, it was also true that those who wanted to be favors had already given their spots to poor children from poor families without any money, so they would not sell the spots in their hands at all.
Because the sale was a completely equivalent transaction, if the two sides exchanged, no one would owe him anything, and there would be no friends.h.i.+p between them.
"You poor b.a.s.t.a.r.d, what are you doing here?"
"Everyone, look! Our Cosmos City's genius vagrants are here. I wonder if you can afford the Wanlai Restaurant?"
As soon as a plainly dressed young man entered the door, he was surrounded by many people around him. His mocking voice filled the entire s.p.a.ce. Since no one had made a move, the restaurant did not send anyone to take care of him. The distinguished guests were all on the second floor, and the voice of the hall could not be heard, so they were left to make trouble.
"Go away!" Xue Yifan knew that his purpose today was to come here and try to take a spot at the Seventh Mother's banquet. He had a reason to meet Seventh Mother, so he had saved up a lot of money to buy a spot here.
He knew that the Wanlai Restaurant had rules that they couldn't make a move. If they made a move, they would be chased out of the restaurant, so he had to endure it.
"Oh, poor guy told me to go away. I won't go away. You don't want to see what kind of place this is. Can you afford it?"
"Shopkeeper, when did Wanlai Restaurant have a reason not to let guests in?"
Xue Yifan ignored the provocative person in front of him. His goal today was only to obtain that spot. Nothing else mattered.
If it weren't for the quota, he wouldn't have chosen to use this method to find the shopkeeper of Wanlai Restaurant to rescue him. Doing so would definitely offend the shopkeeper. However, he had prepared for so long, so he couldn't let these curfews slip by.
The shopkeeper who was originally watching from the side was brought up by the victim just like that. He had no choice but to perform his duties and walk forward.
"Young Master, you must be joking. We are all guests here. How can the Wanlai Restaurant not let guests in?"
The shopkeeper then turned around and said, "Please give me some face. Don't make things difficult for this young master."
Seeing the shopkeeper's appearance, the others couldn't continue to make trouble. Even though Shopkeeper Tong looked polite now, anyone who really didn't give her face would be courting death.
"That's fine. For Shopkeeper Tong's sake, I'll spare you today. Let's see how you, a vagrant from the famous Cosmos City , can afford to buy a spot for the Seventh Mother's banquet."
The leader had already dismounted from the donkey, and the rest of them followed suit. However, when they left, they did not forget to look at Xue Yifan with contempt, and there were also some who did not forget to mock him.
Xue Yifan ignored them and went straight into the hall to find a place to sit.
Kong Yun also found it interesting. This person was nicknamed a homeless man in Cosmos City by the people around him. He looked very plain. He didn't know what he would bring to partic.i.p.ate in the auction at that time.
"Stop looking. Let's go. We still need to sell quotas."
s.h.i.+ Xueren urged Kong Yun. The hall was filled with smoke and miasma. There were already many people staring at her. s.h.i.+ Xueren was not an unknown person in Cosmos City. On the contrary, many people knew her.
It was precisely because of this many gazes that she did not want to stay here for a while longer. She hurriedly told the shopkeeper about her intention to sell the quota and then went to the second floor to rest.
" s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng , isn't that your sister?" A table on the second floor noticed the situation downstairs. Although each private room had its own formation, s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng 's table only activated the sound insulation and did not open the barrier that blocked his line of sight.
s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng turned around and saw that it was indeed s.h.i.+ Xue Ren, but the figure beside him was the object of his gritted teeth and hatred for the past few days. Now, this older sister of his actually brought this man here to eat!
The people beside him only saw s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng 's face slowly turn ashen. The wine cup in his hand was crushed under the tremendous force. It could be seen that s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng was extremely furious.
"Let's go down and take a look at this pretty boy." s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng spoke, and the surrounding people followed suit.
Many of the younger generation in Cosmos City knew that s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng 's feelings for his sister were different. Looking at s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng 's angry appearance and the man beside s.h.i.+ Xueren, everyone had some enlightenment in their hearts. The rumors were true.
"Are you addicted to being a pretty boy? I already know that your family will support you. Xue Ren will also give you a spot. Are you still bringing her here to disgust me?"
As soon as s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng came out, he cursed at Kong Yun. Kong Yun was an intruder to s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng , so he forcefully interrupted him and took away many things that belonged to him.
"s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng!"
Without waiting for s.h.i.+ Xueren to speak, s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng sternly stopped s.h.i.+ Xueren's words, "This is between me and this man. Shut up."
s.h.i.+ Xueren had never seen her younger brother reveal such an expression before, and she was really stunned for a moment.
"What? Don't you dare to say anything? I really don't know what Daddy likes about you, but he actually agreed to invest in you. I don't care what happens to you and your family, please stay away from Xue Ren!"
"s.h.i.+ Xueren is not an idiot. Since when do you need to express her opinion? What do I have to do with her? Does it have anything to do with you? If you can make a move, don't compete!"
Kong Yun ignored s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng 's existence and walked past s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng to the second floor.
When s.h.i.+ Xueren heard Kong Yun call her an idiot, she reacted and hurriedly chased after Kong Yun upstairs, "You are the idiot!"
Seeing that the two of them had ignored him, s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng's veins burst out, but he endured it forcefully. Shopkeeper Tong was right beside him. He could guess that Shopkeeper Tong would immediately send someone to invite him out after he attacked.
Although he knew that the clan had chosen to support Kong Yun, he was very surprised and puzzled, but he still chose to accept it. The clan head's decision was not something anyone could influence, not even s.h.i.+ Xueren.
Therefore, he could guess that s.h.i.+ Xueren's invitation card would definitely give Kong Yun a spot. This banquet could be said to be the first appearance of their generation of young geniuses, and it was also extremely important to him. He had come to Wanlai Restaurant today to bid for a spot.
In the end, he saw s.h.i.+ Xueren bringing Kong Yun here. How could he not be angry? Kong Yun must have brought s.h.i.+ Xueren here to demonstrate with him.
s.h.i.+ Xueren was stunned earlier. She was completely stunned by s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng 's appearance. When she chased after Kong Yun, she did not forget to turn around and say to s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng , "Come with me to the banquet of Seventh Mother tomorrow!"
Kong Yun himself had an invitation card. He didn't need this spot anymore. s.h.i.+ Xueren had long wanted to tell s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng about this spot. Now that she happened to meet him, she directly agreed to meet s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng at the entrance of the Spring Pavilion tomorrow to join Seventh Mother 's banquet.
s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng was also stunned when he heard this. Seeing s.h.i.+ Xueren trotting upstairs, he felt a warm feeling in his heart.
"So Xue Ren is still thinking about me, hehe." s.h.i.+ Wu Cheng smiled foolishly. He swept away his previous rage. Since there were already spots available, there was no need to wait for the spots to be auctioned.
"Brothers, it's my treat. Let's eat directly." After saying that, he brought his fox friend and dog friend back to the private room on the second floor. He no longer waited for the auction and directly instructed the waiter to serve the dishes.
s.h.i.+ Xueren trotted to catch up with Kong Yun. Seeing that Kong Yun was able to sit down properly, she gave up on the idea of retaliating against Kong Yun. "You actually dare to call me an idiot. I'm going to order all the meals in the Wanlai Restaurant today. Don't be unable to pay the bill at that time!"
She licked her lips with ill intentions and relied on this excuse to satisfy her appet.i.te.
