Chapter 75 – High-priced poaching


Jin Yingzhen was wearing a pair of tight blue jeans today, which perfectly highlighted her legs. She had a pair of white casual shoes on her feet and a pure white chiffon blouse with short sleeves, revealing her fair arms.

She wore a Cartier ladies’ watch on her left wrist, which exuded elegance and agility.

Lin Baici usually went out to play with his childhood friend Li Wei. If they got tired, they would either buy a bottle of cola and sit on the roadside, or go into KFC and order some food to rest.

But it was obviously not possible today.

Jin Yingzhen’s outfit and temperament didn’t match those roadside shops at all. Even if Lin Baici had low emotional intelligence, he knew that it was inappropriate to do so.

“Let’s go to a coffee shop!”

With the three thousand yuan that had just arrived in his account, Lin Baici said this with confidence.

“Let’s go!”

Jin Yingzhen ran to the right side of the Mercedes-Benz and opened the front door. “Oppa, please!”

“No need to be so respectful!”

Lin Baici felt that everyone around him was looking at him, so he quickly got into the car.

Jin Yingzhen had long been accustomed to this kind of attention.

Because when you are outstanding enough, others will naturally pay attention to you, scrutinize you, and some people will appreciate you, while others will despise you.

There’s no need to care about those gazes, just be yourself.

College students have strong purchasing power, so there are various types of shops near every college.

After turning right out of the school gate and walking sixty meters, there was a two-story coffee shop called “Fei Lengcui Town”. The decoration was full of Italian style, giving off an exotic atmosphere.

“Let’s go to this one!”

Jin Yingzhen parked the car and went in with Lin Baici.

Inside the coffee shop, there was a brown floor, wind chimes hanging from the ceiling, and the sound of soft music passing through the ears, as if brushing against the waves on the beach, gently intoxicating.

A female waitress in a coffee-colored uniform walked over.

“Do you have a reservation for two?”

The smile on the waitress’s face was very professional.

“No!”

Jin Yingzhen looked around. There were many customers, almost all of them couples. The more private booths were already taken. “Do you have private rooms or more private seats?”

“Sorry, we have a lot of customers these days, and all the private rooms have been reserved. There are only a few seats left on the first floor. Can you sit by the window over there?”

The waitress emphasized, “You can enjoy the view!”

“This is not Budapest, Hungary. What is there to see on a street?”

Jin Yingzhen complained, but she still respected Lin Baici’s opinion. “Oppa, what do you think?”

“Let’s sit here!”

It’s just a chat, there’s no need to be so particular.

“Please follow me!”

The waitress led Lin Baici and Jin Yingzhen to a window seat and then handed them each a delicate menu.

“Our hand-ground coffee here is very good!”

Jin Yingzhen couldn’t be bothered to look at the menu. It was a coffee shop targeting college students. What good coffee could they have?

But Lin Baici was surprised.

One pot of coffee for 180 yuan? And this was the cheapest one?

Although he had never seen that pot before, it couldn’t be that big.

In addition to coffee, there were also desserts, cakes, ice cream, and soda.

“What do you want to drink?”

Lin Baici asked for Jin Yingzhen’s opinion.

“Anything!”

Jin Yingzhen didn’t mind.

“Let’s choose this one, a pot of coffee, and a large fruit platter. Do you want to eat cake?”

Lin Baici didn’t recognize any of these coffees, so he simply chose the most expensive one. He was worried that this wealthy young lady wouldn’t be able to handle the cheaper ones.

“No, thank you!”

Jin Yingzhen wanted to maintain her figure and wouldn’t eat randomly.

“These two cakes, one of each, and a box of these cookies!”

Since this was Haijing University of Science and Technology, Lin Baici felt that he should be a good host and treat Jin Yingzhen well.

“Oppa, there’s no need to order so much!”

Jin Yingzhen was quite moved. She saw what Lin Baici ordered, and they were all the most expensive items. This showed that he treated her as a friend and was worried about not being a good host.

Let her pay?

Although they hadn’t known each other for long, Jin Yingzhen knew that Lin Baici was definitely not that kind of person.

“Oppa, after this meal, are you going to eat dirt for half a month?”

Jin Yingzhen teased.

“Are you looking down on me?”

Lin Baici laughed. Soon, he would receive a one million yuan reward, and even if he ran out of money, he could go to the Origin Forum to make some money.

“Oppa, why did you change your phone?”

Jin Yingzhen noticed that Lin Baici’s phone had become a Huawei.

“I was contaminated by the rules on my way here!”

Lin Baici casually explained a few words without going into detail.

After listening, Jin Yingzhen hesitated for a moment and spoke up, “Oppa, do you want to come to Goryeo for a few days? Our girl group here is quite popular in your Jiuzhou. Do you have any favorite members? I can invite them to accompany us!”

Female celebrities were also possible, but people from Jiuzhou seemed to not watch Goryeo’s movies and TV dramas much, so they probably wouldn’t recognize those female celebrities.

“I just started school!”

Lin Baici hadn’t been abroad before.

“In fact, you are already a Divine Hunter. Whether you go to college or not doesn’t matter anymore!”

Jin Yingzhen didn’t know how to approach the topic. The main reason was that Goryeo was much worse than Jiuzhou, and the success rate of poaching people was too low.

“Learn more knowledge. It won’t do you any harm.”

Lin Baici didn’t see it that way. Most of the people who promote human progress are those who possess knowledge. If a Divine Hunter doesn’t study, he would probably be nothing more than a thug for the rest of his life.

“In Jiuzhou, without a license, you are not allowed to explore the God’s Ruins. We also have this rule in Goryeo, but my brother is a powerful Divine Hunter and holds an important position in the military. If you want to explore the God’s Ruins, I can introduce you to him. Don’t worry, you can get seventy percent of all the benefits in the end!”Divine hunters entering the God’s Ruins of other countries had to pay a portion of taxes, after all, the God’s Ruins were on their territory and not unowned.

“Is seventy percent a lot?”

Lin Baici didn’t understand this.

“I asked my brother, and it’s the highest rate!”

Jin Yingzhen didn’t mention the price her brother Jin Xian offered. She thought it was too low, so she wanted Lin Baici to enter the God’s Ruins with her brother.

As long as Jin Xian saw Lin Baici’s performance, he would definitely offer a new price.

The success rate of digging for talent by offering a sky-high price for the first time was much higher than increasing the price step by step.

Because it represented sincerity.

“Let’s talk about it later!”

The ordered items arrived, and Lin Baici invited Jin Yingzhen to have coffee.

……

“Xinyan, it’s the ‘Fei Leng Cui Town’ just ahead, their iced coffee is really good!”

Huang Tao kept looking for topics to prevent the atmosphere from becoming cold.

“Okay!”

Ji Xinyan had no interest at all.

This Huang Tao was the son of her mother’s best friend, a sophomore this year. When that aunt heard that she had also been admitted to Haijing Polytechnic, she told her mother that her son could take care of her.

What a joke, did she really need someone to take care of her?

In fact, Ji Xinyan knew that the aunt wanted her son to marry her.

After all, her dowry was quite generous.

“Holy shit, a Mercedes AMG E63S?”

Huang Tao saw Jin Yingzhen’s Mercedes parked in front of the coffee shop and immediately exclaimed, walking closer and taking out his phone to snap pictures.

“Yep!”

Ji Xinyan knew about this car.

“Do you know her too?”

Huang Tao was excited, as if he had found a kindred spirit: “Look at the 20-inch lightweight wheels with PS4S racing tires, six-piston calipers, quad exhaust at the rear, and the ducktail spoiler on the trunk, it’s so sexy!”

“Look at the V8 BITURBO tattoo on the fender, isn’t it bursting with style?”

Huang Tao walked to the front of the car and touched the hood.

“Inside, there’s a 4.0 V8 twin-turbocharged engine with over 600 horsepower, it’s like the heart of a monster. Driving this car on the road, you’re the king of the highway, and with just a touch of the accelerator, you can easily overtake any vehicle!”

“You know a lot about cars, huh?”

Ji Xinyan perfunctorily said.

Huang Tao didn’t catch on and continued excitedly: “Not really, it’s just that this Mercedes is my dream car. My goal is to earn a salary after graduation that will allow me to buy one in two years!”

“Two years?”

Ji Xinyan’s beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed.

Hearing this, Huang Tao thought Ji Xinyan felt his life goal was too small and hurriedly explained: “This car, fully equipped, costs about two million. Even with a million annual salary, it would take two years to afford it!”

“It is quite expensive!”

Ji Xinyan had no interest in cars: “Let’s go, I’m thirsty, let’s have some coffee!”

“Oh, okay.”

As Huang Tao walked, he couldn’t help but look back at the Mercedes parked on the side of the road.

It was so beautiful.

It was like a sleeping Transformer, waiting for its master to take control!

Ji Xinyan and Huang Tao entered the coffee shop, and there were only a few seats left. They chose one by the window.

After sitting down, Huang Tao skillfully ordered and politely asked Ji Xinyan what she liked.

“Whatever!”

Ji Xinyan played with her phone, but her eyes were on Lin Baici.

Damn, he’s so handsome.

Ji Xinyan turned her phone to silent mode, secretly took a side profile photo of Lin Baici, and then sent it to a high school classmates group chat.

Your Conscience is Lying: @Pink Meow, @Jumping Candy, how about my schoolmate? High quality, right?

Those having coffee here should be students from Haijing Polytechnic.

After ordering, Huang Tao noticed Jin Yingzhen and couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

She had a great figure and was beautiful, but she seemed to be Korean?

Although the other party’s voice was not loud, they could still hear it because the two booths were close. When the blonde girl called the young man Oppa, Huang Tao confirmed,

This was a Korean girl,

Kimchi flavored.

Ji Xinyan was chatting.

Jumping Candy: Can I still apply to Haijing Polytechnic now?

Pink Meow: @Your Conscience is Lying, I want his WeChat! I want his WeChat!

Where’s My Girlfriend: This girl is so pretty, Xinyan, can I have a front-facing photo?

Your Conscience is Lying: Get lost!

Taking pictures of boys was fine, but taking pictures of girls involved moral issues, let alone sending them to a group chat for male classmates to see, that was absolutely unacceptable.

Who knew what these guys would do with the photos?

Where’s My Girlfriend sent a crying emoji.

Pink Meow: @Your Conscience is Lying, hurry up, I want his WeChat within three seconds!
