The Strange Adventure of a Broke Mercenary

Chapter 142 The People's Favourite



"WOOOOOOOOO!" The customers cheered as the Beetle and Bellflower couple came out of Station 5. They were cheering for Bin Yong and Jia Le for giving them such a spectacularly beautiful dungeon run. It felt like they had rewritten the Qixi Festival folktale into their own story.

"Congratulations for finding the True Ending of the Qixi Festival Dungeon Instance." Jin clapped along with the customers and the couple could only blush. "Way to go Mister Beetle!" A customer cheered for Bin Yong's speech against the Heavenly Empress. Jin ushered his two customers to the Wall of Honour, which was what most of Jin's customers dubbed it as.

"For your first dungeon clear of the Qixi Festival Dungeon instance, I am awarding you 1 gold medal each as a reward as well as a custom-made actual medal, courtesy of our store." Jin passed the gold Panda medal coin to the couple, which got Bin Yong more excited than having it as digital currency. "Wow, this is so much prettier in real life than the one I saw on the phone." Bin Yong tried to bite it and was assured that it was real.

He then received a medal with Niu Lang and Zhi Nu meeting each other on a bridge of magpies imprinted on it. At the back of the medal, it stated his name along with his achievement "Lion Ass Kicker", which made him giggled.

For Jia Le, her achievement was "Fantastic Kisser", which she blushed at instantly and followed by punching Jin's arm. "You are so bad!" Jia Le took this chance to move closer to Bin Yong and kiss him on his cheek, which made the customers cheer loudly once more!

"One more thing. Because Bin Yong has consecutively been on the Wall of Honour for a number of times, I would like to present him with a set of vouchers. It contains two tickets to the Panda Muscles Service Instance as well as the Emerald Mountain Hot Springs Service Instance." Jin passed an envelope to Bin Yong, which he bowed a little when accepting to thank Boss Jin.

"The Panda Muscles is a service instance for all your training needs. I even currently have an instructor stationed there to assist with your training if you need any help. It is a ginormous service instance with a gym, fighting ring, swimming pool, indoor running track and many other facilities."

"Is it paid per entry? Or is there a monthly membership fee?" A customer seemed interested in the notion of a well rounded exercise facility.

"Currently, it is 40 Yuan per entry for the Panda Muscles on the third floor. Monthly, annual and even lifetime memberships will be available within the week! Remember to check it out in the Pandamonium announcements." Jin was finally able to advertise his service instance with the large crowd having their attention on him. After which, he thanked Bin Yong and Jia Le for their participation and returned to the cash counter.

In less than a minute, a few customers had already decided to try and take a look at the Panda Muscles service instance. "Jia Le, want to go and check it out?" Bin Yong did not want to miss anything out but Jia Le refused.

"I want to eat some good food first!" Jia Le pointed at the curry rice on the menu since wanted to rest for a while and Bin Yong readily agreed. "Miss Yun! Two Tonkatsu Curry Rice and Panda Soda! Ehh.. is it okay for me to order the Black Pepper Bun from here?" Bin Yong courteously gave his orders to Yun.

"Yeap, Just tell me how many you want and I can go get it for you." Yun smiled so gently, Jia Le was a little jealous of such perfection but she noticed Bin Yong was not paying much attention to Yun at all.

"Okay, Give me one Black Pepper Bun for now, I will pay for that with Panda Credits too." Bin Yong nodded his head to Yun and waited for the food. "I wonder if Boss Jin will produce even more delicacies or main dishes?" Jia Le could not wait for the Tonkatsu Curry Rice. If not for the Panda Credits, she would not even have dared to imagine what kind of prices this shop would charge for its food.

"Depends if our new chef wants to create something new or not." Yun passed the Panda Soda to the couple first.

"You mean, she has been creating all this great food?" Bin Yong opened the Panda Soda Can and he let it fizzle for a moment before he started to drink it.

"Only the Black Pepper Bun is her current creation. The rest were from a secret food supplier which Jin has not revealed to me either. However, he said that he did not wish to rely on that food supplier too much. In case, you know…" Yun smiled as she walked away to get the curry rice for them.

"Ahh, over reliance and the food supplier might charge more for its products. Come to think of it, Boss Jin's dungeons are not really that expensive. In fact, it's a steal even at 500 Yuan." Bin Yong commented to Jia Le.

"Why would you say that? Haven't other dungeon suppliers either started to supply something similar or have already supplying something similar to Boss Jin?" Jia Le replied.

"Oh, you noticed those net advertisements on the news websites too?" Bin Yong asked Jia Le as he later thanked Yun for the quick serving of the tonkatsu curry rice.

"What advertisements?" Yun served the second plate to Jia Le, which she gratefully accepted.

"Oh, apparently people have started to copy Boss Jin's modus operandi, especially King's Monster. They are serving food alongside their dungeons. Shi Zuo that monkey decided to give it a try and he said it was only so-so though." Bin Yong immediately chomped on one of the pork cutlets and the juicy bit of the meat made him feel bliss. The sweet curry swam around his mouth and caused him to hunger for more.

"However, the dungeons were terrible or maybe worse than before. Shi Zuo said It looked more flashy but it did not have the impact. He also said it didn't have the feeling of excitement that he experienced when he was playing the Great Wall of China Dungeon Instance." Bin Yong described as Jia Le secretly stole one small cutlet piece away from Bin Yong.

"I see, thank you for the info. Looks like we have to step up our game too." Yun chuckled, and Jia Le agreed with her opinion. "Please more dungeons or service instances and most importantly… more food!! I am really starting to feel like this shop is my second home. I used to hate dungeons but for some reason, ever since I started dungeoning in Boss Jin's store, I feel the need to dungeon every once in a while or I might get withdrawal symptoms!"

Some of the customers that were beside them overheard their conversation and inserted their opinions too. "Same here, I can never go to other dungeon suppliers after experiencing Jin's Dungeons. Besides, the spiritual force I receive regardless of victory or defeat has been beneficial for my cultivation." A female office lady spoke outright.

"This dungeon made me lose weight and those clothes in the underground store, Oooo Ms Yun! Please ask Boss Jin for a discount sale or something! The clothes are all so beautiful but I can't afford them all."

"As beautiful as me?" Yun tried to boast and almost all the customers around the couple laughed cordially. The atmosphere around the bar counter was gentle, warm and pleasing, which was quite the contrast to the areas near the Dimensional Space Stations, where the crowd were placed at the edge of their seats to see the cultivators win with style or lose valiantly.

Jin managed to catch a glimpse of the entire situation and was glad that he made the right choice to put Yun, the people's favourite, right at the front line to gain popularity for the shop.
