Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Everyone Was Shocked
"You found him that quickly?" Lu Feng asked, a little surprised.
After hanging up, he headed to the teahouse and met up with Yang Ming and Chen Bo.
"Cousin, what’s the situation?" Lu Feng asked as soon as he sat down.
Yang Ming explained, "We got the information from Chen Bo’s cousin in Min Province. After that, we spent some money to pull some strings and contact the middleman."
"The guy’s name is Master Kai. At first, we only met with one of his underlings. It seemed like we weren’t qualified to meet him directly, and he wasn’t interested in doing business with us."
"Maybe because we spent that money, he sent an underling to meet us. But when they learned we wanted to trade Gold—a whole ton of it—he suddenly got interested."
"What’s more, he’s arranged a meeting in three days on a yacht in Min Province. The crucial part is, Master Kai knows that someone is behind me and Chen Bo. He wants to meet you!"
Lu Feng frowned slightly at his words.
’Based on what my cousin said, this guy seems very interested in the Gold business. He originally didn’t want to deal with them but changed his mind because of the Gold.’
’That’s very strange.’
After some thought, Lu Feng agreed. "Alright, we’ll go to Min Province in three days and meet this Master Kai."
’I’m already Level 8. My Strength, Agility, and Stamina are all at 11, more than double that of an ordinary person. I’ve also mastered Basic Combat and Old-Fashioned Firearm Proficiency.’
’Plus, I have a laser pistol and a Bullet Rifle in my inventory space.’
’Besides, I can instantly enter the game world, which is enough to handle any situation.’
’Oh, right. I can also stock some propane tanks in the game world. If necessary, I can even bring them out. If that Master Kai has any bad ideas, I can definitely make sure he’s the one who gets finished off first.’
After the decision was made, Chen Bo also left the teahouse. They agreed to set off together in three days.
Lu Feng then turned to Yang Ming with an invitation. "Cousin, get Brother Lin and Ah Pao. Come over to my rented apartment. I’ve got something good for you guys to drink."
The "something good" he mentioned was, of course, the Striped Bull spine bone soup.
’I brought a huge pot of it from the game earlier, and it’s still in the fridge.’
’This soup can increase a person’s constitution. Xu Bin and the others already drank some, so it won’t have any more effect on them. I can’t let the rest go to waste. I was planning on bringing it out for my cousin and his guys anyway.’
"Something good?" Yang Ming asked, surprised. He then went downstairs and called for Ah Lin and Ah Pao.
Da Fei happened to be at the teahouse, so he was invited along as well.
Lu Feng also remembered to give Huang Chui a call.
’I bought the Qingfeng Fitness Club and put Huang Chui in charge. He’s a boxer. If he drinks this Striped Bull spine bone soup and increases his constitution, it’ll be beneficial for him when he teaches boxing at the gym.’
After sending his location to Huang Chui, Lu Feng led the group to his apartment.
When they arrived at the apartment building, Huang Chui was already waiting.
"Xiaofeng, Brother Ming, Ah Lin, Ah Pao, Da Fei." Huang Chui greeted each of them as they arrived.
Yang Ming gave Huang Chui a friendly punch on the chest. "Let us know when the gym renovations are done and it’s open for business. Since Xiaofeng bought the place, you better manage it well."
"Don’t worry, Brother Ming, I get it," Huang Chui said with a smile and a nod.
"Let’s go. Everyone head up. The stuff is upstairs," Lu Feng said, ushering them inside.
Yang Ming and the others were even more surprised, wondering what Lu Feng was treating them to that required all this mystery.
Inside the apartment, Lu Feng took all the Striped Bull spine bone soup out of the refrigerator. He went to the stove, turned on the flame, and poured all the soup into a pot to heat it up.
Yang Ming stared at the pot of meat and bones, his face full of confusion. "Xiaofeng, what kind of meat is this?"
Lu Feng spun a tale. "Cousin, this is a special kind of wild beef, stewed with rare and precious herbs. You could say this is the only pot in existence. No one else could get a taste even if they wanted to."
"Precious herbs?" Yang Ming looked at the goji berries and American ginseng in the pot, clearly a bit skeptical about the word "precious."
Still, he was very interested in wild game, and this would be his first time trying wild beef.
Soon, the pot of Striped Bull spine bone soup was heated. Lu Feng said to Yang Ming and the others, "Cousin, help yourselves. This soup will give you a surprise." freewebnovёl.ƈom
Yang Ming smiled and led the way, ladling a bowl of soup for everyone before finally getting one for himself.
Before he could even take a sip, he heard Huang Chui exclaim, "This soup... It’s unbelievable!"
"Yeah, yeah, this is amazing!" Ah Pao couldn’t help but add in shock.
It was no wonder they were surprised. After just two sips, they felt a warm current surging through their bodies, bringing with it a wave of comfort.
The feeling was incredible, just like something described in a wuxia novel.
"Is it that dramatic?" Yang Ming asked curiously.
Ah Pao immediately replied, "Brother Ming, try it yourself! This soup is unbelievable."
Yang Ming’s curiosity was piqued. He immediately started drinking the soup from his bowl. A moment later, he felt the same pleasant sensation of a warm current flowing through him.
And as the warmth spread, he sensed it wasn’t just comfortable—his body felt different, too. He couldn’t help but ask, "Xiaofeng, does this soup have some kind of special effect?"
Lu Feng nodded with a smile. "Cousin, you guessed right. Drinking this soup can increase your constitution, but you’ll need to have a few more bowls."
"This stuff is extremely hard to come by. I paid a high price to get it. Once this is gone, there might not be any more."
Hearing this, Yang Ming and the others were all stunned.
’Drinking soup can increase your constitution?’
’Increase it just like that?’
’Is this a wuxia novel for real?’
But the warm current they felt, along with the genuinely comfortable feeling in their bodies, forced them to believe it.
As a boxer, Huang Chui could feel the effects more clearly. He immediately ladled himself another bowl and downed it in one go, then went back for a third.
After three consecutive bowls, the sensation of the warm current was even stronger, and the feeling of his constitution improving became much clearer.
He couldn’t help but shadowbox, throwing a series of punches into the air. Then, he dropped to the floor and started doing push-ups.
A moment later, he got up, looking incredulous. "This soup really does increase your constitution! After just a few bowls, I can clearly feel the difference. This is unbelievable."
Hearing that, Yang Ming, Ah Pao, and Da Fei hurriedly finished the soup in their bowls and then downed several more, finishing off the entire pot.
Besides, for an ordinary person to go from LV1 to LV4, the increase in constitution would be absolutely noticeable.
One by one, they all stared at Lu Feng in disbelief.
Clearly, they were shocked by the soup, but they were even more shocked wondering where Lu Feng had gotten such a thing.
Yang Ming, in particular, found that his younger cousin was becoming more and more mysterious and astonishing.
