Cosmic Trading System

Since Lin Yun had already offered this bottle of wine to the bodyguards, he did not hold back. Not only did he pay for the bottle that Qi Nan had purchased, but he also treated the bodyguards to another bottle.

Although the price of this kind of wine was not low in the Cosmic Trading System, this cost was insignificant to him. He found it worthwhile to spend these Spirit Energy Points if it helped the bodyguards serve more diligently.

"This wine is beneficial for your health. You'll know once you have a taste. However, do not consume too much at once. Two bottles should be enough for all of you," Lin Yun said with a smile.

"Thank you, boss."

The eyes of the bodyguards lit up and they expressed their gratitude in unison.

Although there were fifty or sixty of them sharing just two bottles of wine, they didn't think Lin Yun was stingy at all.

You should know, this wine costs more than ten million a bottle. Even though they earn a decent salary, it would still be quite difficult for them to save up for a bottle.

Two bottles would amount to more than twenty million.

Which boss would be so generous as to treat their bodyguards to a twenty-million dollar wine?

They were curious about how a wine costing millions would taste.

While they did not pay much attention to Lin Yun's claim that the wine was beneficial to their health, many products in society claimed to have health benefits. But ultimately, who knew whether they really did?

It was just a bottle of wine after all, and since each of them could only have a small cup, what effect could it possibly have? They were simply planning to savor the taste.

"That's two bottles of Qingyun Zun being served to mere underlings..."

"Two bottles of Qingyun Zun, that's over twenty million..."

"That can buy many DiLing X9 cars. If low equipped, over ten..."

"Tsk..."

"Now that's a real display of extravagance and wealth..."

Many students gasped and muttered softly.

Initially, they thought Lin Yun was bluffing when he casually mentioned that he regularly drank this wine. They thought the wine must be his property since it cost millions and that Lin Yun wouldn't regularly drink such expensive wine. They assumed he was merely finding an excuse to scam Qi Nan by offering the expensive Qingyun Zun to the bodyguards.

Now, they believed him.

His luxury was far beyond their imagination.

"Mengmeng, you practice martial arts, so you can also try this wine." At this point, Lin Yun turned and smiled at Lin Mengmeng.

"Okay!" Lin Mengmeng smiled sweetly in response.

Having practiced martial arts from a young age, she was straightforward and decisive and did not stand on ceremony. She too wanted to taste what a wine worth millions was like.

While they were speaking, Lin Yun and his group made their exit.

Many of the bodyguards were fond of drinking. Soon, they found plenty of drinking utensils in the car. The two bottles of wine were quickly divided into fifty or sixty cups, with each person getting roughly the same amount.

Except, one cup had a bit more wine than the others, almost twice as much as the other cups.

Very soon, one of the bodyguards came over to Lin Mengmeng with that cup of wine and said with a smile, "Miss, this is your cup."

"Thank you, Brother Lee." Lin Mengmeng took the wine cup and smiled.

Then, she picked up the cup and took a sip.

It must be said that Lin Mengmeng was top-tier, whether in temperament or looks. Her act of gently sipping the wine was also quite charming.

"Hmm?" With just a sip, Lin Mengmeng's beautiful eyes lit up.

This wine was not as distasteful as she had imagined. Instead, it was extremely delicious, akin to fine nectar, stirring an intense craving within her.

"Whew——"

The next moment, Lin Mengmeng raised her hand and finished off the glass of wine.

"Boom——"

Instantly, it felt as if a ball of fire had soared within Lin Mengmeng's body, warming her up. Flecks of energy whizzed through her meridians, making her feel as if her strength had increased significantly.

"Is… is this a medicinal liquor?" Lin Mengmeng asked incredulously.

Medicinal liquors or medicinal baths were secrets passed on among many martial arts families and schools. As Western medicine advanced and traditional Chinese medicine declined, coupled with a decrease in the availability of valuable medicinal herbs and fewer people practicing martial arts, these secrets had become increasingly rare.

For ordinary martial arts families and schools, compiling a collection of medicinal liquors was extremely difficult.

Naturally, the price of each batch was not low either.

Her family, the Lin Family, only had the formula for one type of medicinal liquor and it was a rather simple one at that.

Nevertheless, because of it, the Lin Family managed to secure a footing.

She was her father's only daughter and the sole girl in the Lin family's generation. Because of these, she was pampered and, of course, she had tasted their family's medicinal liquors. But the effects of such liquor, when compared to the same volume of the wine she just drank, were far inferior. She remembered that the cost to produce one bottle was around two or three million.

"The medicinal properties of this wine seem easier to absorb." Quickly, Lin Mengmeng detected another peculiarity about the wine and was once again surprised.

About three minutes later, the medicinal properties of the wine had diminished to nearly imperceptible levels. Lin Mengmeng made a judgement then; the medicinal potency of this wine was approximately three times that of their family's medicinal liquor. Moreover, the absorption rate of this wine was faster.

Sometimes, the speed of absorption was of greater importance.

Most importantly, while other medicinal liquors truly were medicinal liquors, this wine had pronounced wine characteristics too.

Although Lin Mengmeng rarely drank other types of wine, she was certain that the taste of this wine surpassed many others. The medicinal potency contained within only served as a highlight. Even she, someone who usually didn't enjoy drinking, became fond of the taste of this wine.

Given what she now understood, Lin Yun's price of selling a bottle of Qingyun Supreme at eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand didn't seem expensive.

"Lin Yun, you're really tempting me..." Lin Mengmeng lifted her head to look at Lin Yun and complained.

Making her aware of the medicinal potency within this wine and letting her taste it, how was she supposed to resist it now?

However, the price of this wine was too steep. Although she possessed a free gold card for Qingyun Restaurant, she had always been conscientious about not ordering expensive dishes whenever she frequented the restaurant. Now, how was she to resist this wine?

For a moment, she somewhat regretted tasting this wine.

"How did I tempt you…" Lin Yun responded with a bitter smile.

He understood the implication behind Lin Mengmeng's words.

Earlier, he had impulsively thought that since Lin Mengmeng was a martial artist, she could taste this wine. He didn't have any other intentions.

However, he respected Lin Mengmeng's self-discipline. He realized he had given his free gold card to the right person.

To be honest, when he offered the gold card to Lin Mengmeng, he never expected that he would end up selling such an expensive wine at Qingyun Restaurant. Considering just the meals, an individual or even a group's expenditure was limited and would not cost him many Spirit Energy Points.

If Lin Mengmeng's character was flawed and she were to excessively consume these valuable wines, he estimated he would have to modify the rules and impose limitations on such wines.

Fortunately, Lin Mengmeng was disciplined and did not force him to take such measures.

However, he would need to consider carefully if he were to give out free gold cards in the future. Alternatively, he could impose limitations on these expensive wines, such as quantity restrictions or placing them under special pricing where only discounts could be availed with the use of the free gold card.

"I don't care, it's all because you let me taste this wine just now. You have to take responsibility, hmm... I don't want much, just one bottle is enough..." Lin Mengmeng spoke in a coquettish tone.

Halfway through her statement, whether it was because she felt uncomfortable about asking Lin Yun for such an expensive bottle of wine or she realized some ambiguity in her words, her petite face quickly turned crimson. However, this made her appear even more adorable and charming.
