Especially for Ning Rongrong at this moment.
Her father, aware of the evolution of her Soul, would periodically send covert guards to deliver large sums of money.
The frustration of having money but nowhere to spend it had nearly driven her mad!
Now, having confirmed her circumstances, she was naturally overjoyed.
However, after visiting several places, they found that all the restaurants were packed.
Helplessly, Yun Feng had no choice but to take the girls to a roadside stall to grab some breakfast.
An old man was pushing a cart, hawking his wares.
On the cart were several large pots.
Beside them was a bamboo basket covered with a quilt for insulation.
"Boss, how much for the meal?" Yun Feng asked with a smile.
The old man, taking a liking to Yun Feng at first glance, replied cheerfully, "Young man, my boxed meals are absolutely delicious. Business has been good today, and there's not much left. I'll give you a discount. Two copper Soul coins per portion, and it's all-you-can-eat. How's that?"
Yun Feng wasn't short on money, but hearing the old man's words still brought him comfort.
"Thank you, uncle!"
"Give me six portions!"
The old man lifted the lids of the pots, revealing a well-balanced mix of two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes.
Inside the bamboo basket were snow-white steamed buns.
Though not piping hot, they were still warm.
Yun Feng first handed a bun to each of the girls before taking one for himself. He then accepted the dishes the old man had portioned out and began eating heartily.
Even though it was just a cheap boxed meal, he still enjoyed it immensely.
Passersby who saw this scene couldn't help but feel that something was off.
Six stunningly beautiful people, squatting by the roadside, eating cheap boxed meals??
After Yun Feng and the girls quickly finished their meal, Dugu Yan stepped forward, took out a handkerchief, and wiped the corner of Yun Feng's mouth.
Seeing this, the old man's face twitched involuntarily.
So, this kid eats boxed meals with four maids in tow!!!
"Uncle, thank you. Your boxed meal was delicious," Yun Feng said politely, nodding to the old man. With a flick of his wrist, a gold Soul coin was placed on the stall.
"Young man, what's this for?" the old man asked, taken aback, quickly calling out to Yun Feng and the others as they walked away.
Yun Feng smiled faintly, turning back to the old man, "Uncle, keep it!"
"I have too much money to spend, and it's bothering me!"
With that, he left!
The passersby and the old man, hearing Yun Feng's words, couldn't help but feel a bit vexed.
Who has so much money they can't spend it all?
It's all fake!!!
Xiao Wu and the others didn't have much to say, just feeling that their man was a bit mischievous yet full of sensibility.
But the girls were smart and didn't comment, instead heading cheerfully toward the auction house.
As they got closer, they could truly appreciate the scale of the circular building.
Based on Yun Feng's estimation, the semi-circular structure on the ground had a diameter of at least five hundred meters, with the highest point exceeding eighty meters. Although it was slightly inferior to the Great Spirit Arena he had once seen, one must remember that this was just an auction house, not a venue for spectators.
Moreover, Heaven Dou City was the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, where land was worth its weight in gold.
This demonstrated just how important the auction house was within Heaven Dou City, and its background was undoubtedly profound.
The entrance to the auction house was also semi-circular, matching the overall architecture, and was painted in a creamy white. Standing in front were four tall, slender young women.
These women had clearly been meticulously selected, not only for their height, which was around 1.75 meters, but also for their well-proportioned figures. Though not stunningly beautiful, their pleasant appearances were quite attractive, and they appeared to be no older than twenty.
Seeing Yun Feng accompanied by four strikingly beautiful women, the young women wisely refrained from approaching to strike up a conversation.
One of them stepped forward respectfully, bowing slightly to Yun Feng and the others, "Honored guests, may I assist you with anything?"
Yun Feng felt for the first time that his appearance wasn't particularly captivating.
But the young woman before him maintained a polite smile, not overstepping in any way.
Yun Feng couldn't help but admire this.
This was indeed the auction house of the imperial capital.
Seeing that Yun Feng didn't respond immediately, the young woman didn't rush him, instead waiting quietly in place.
When Yun Feng regained his composure, he smiled and said, "We'd like to take a look inside. Is there anything we need to do?"
The young woman was slightly surprised, glancing at the clothing Yun Feng and the others wore, which clearly indicated their wealth and status. She smiled and replied, "Honored guests, do you have auction qualification certification?"
Yun Feng looked at Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong.
But to his surprise, both women shook their heads.
"Brother, I've always come here with my father before!"
"I've mostly come with my classmates and grandfather as well."
Not getting the answer he expected, Yun Feng wasn't annoyed.
He turned to the young woman and asked calmly, "Where can we get that certification?"
The young woman smiled and explained, "Only guests with auction qualification certification are allowed to participate in the auctions."
"The certification is divided into several levels, with the entry threshold being ten thousand gold Soul coins."
"In other words, you need to provide proof of assets worth ten thousand gold Soul coins to participate. This is to prevent malicious bidding, so please understand."
Seeing that the conditions were so straightforward, Yun Feng smiled and said, "Then take us to get one!"
The young woman nodded in agreement, leading Yun Feng and the others to a small hall nearby.
After Yun Feng briefly displayed his wealth, the auction qualification certification was quickly issued.
Under the enthusiastic gazes of everyone, Yun Feng and the others were sent off.
Returning to the front, Yun Feng directly presented the certificate, and the young women quickly let them pass.
During the tour led by the young woman, Yun Feng also learned some details about the auction house.
Of course, there was another way to enter the auction house!
That was to present an item for auction!
However, the item to be sold needed to be appraised by the Heaven Dou Auction House's specialized appraisers. Only if its value exceeded one thousand gold Soul coins would it qualify for auction.
If the auction was successful, the auction house would take ten percent of the final bid as a handling fee.
But Yun Feng didn't care. He had money, and he was accompanied by wealthy women.
Why bother selling anything?
As they entered the auction house, it didn't have the opulent, golden aura one might expect. The floor was made of creamy white marble, and the walls were adorned with various reliefs. The reliefs were not overly colorful, appearing simple and elegant.
In addition to the reliefs, there were also some built-in display cases along the walls. Inside were various items like porcelain and armor.
If one didn't know what this place was, Yun Feng and the others might have mistaken it for a museum.
The young woman leading them was highly professional. Every ten steps or so, she would pause, making a polite gesture to indicate the direction, accurately guiding Yun Feng and the others to their destination.
Along the way, she also explained many of the auction house's basic rules.
