Ma Hongjun's Shock and Shrek's Closure

In the magnificent and elegant restaurant, Lu Yuan and his entourage took their seats.

"Wow, this restaurant is so big!" Ma Hongjun exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the luxurious restaurant.

This is the restaurant on the sixth floor of the hotel, which is indeed very large and decorated in a very comfortable and stylish manner.

Lu Yuan and the others sat together, but they only occupied a small corner of the restaurant.

"Distinguished guests, what would you like to order?" As soon as Lu Yuan and his entourage sat down, a waiter came forward and asked them.

"Take a look, order whatever you want, don't worry about the price." Lu Yuan took the menu from the waiter and handed it to Ma Hongjun. "Fatty, you're the biggest eater, you order."

"Okay, Boss Yuan, then I won't stand on ceremony." Seeing that Lu Yuan had entrusted him with such an important task as ordering food, Ma Hongjun accepted it without hesitation.

Ma Hongjun looked very serious. He felt that ordering food was a very sacred thing, so he had to order more than he should, so as not to disappoint Boss Yuan's kindness.

The menu was exquisitely made, with beautifully depicted patterns, especially the cover, which was made of pure gold.

There's nothing tacky about it; on the contrary, thanks to the designer's work, the gold cover looks quite classy.

Ma Hongjun was taken aback when he received the menu. He had thought that the gold on the surface of the menu was just a coating, but he never expected that it would be made of pure gold. Good heavens, this was the first time in his life that he had ever seen a menu made of pure gold.

Ma Hongjun opened the cover of the menu, revealing its contents.

The paper inside the menu is also extraordinary. It is made from bamboo fibers from the Ten-Year Soul Beast, Jade Bamboo, making it extremely smooth and tough, and it feels wonderful to the touch.

Each page features illustrations and prices of various dishes. These dishes are essentially depictions of their original forms, not just pictures, and are for reference only.

Speaking of which, what Lu Yuan hated most in his previous life was that the pattern was for reference only. As for why, don't ask, you'll just know that he was tricked.

Ma Hongjun immediately spotted a plate of grilled chicken wings. The wings were painted a beautiful golden color and glistened with golden oil dripping from them. As a seasoned foodie, Ma Hongjun was instantly tempted.

"Flying Spirit Roasted Wings, made from the thousand-year-old Soul Beast Flying Spirit Eagle, one serving contains twelve pairs, priced at 49,999 Gold Soul Coin." Upon seeing this, Ma Hongjun was stunned, his mouth agape. A dish costing nearly 50,000 Gold Soul Coin?

Even if it tastes delicious, he wouldn't dare order it. For an ordinary family, two or three Gold Soul Coin are enough to live on for a year. He only gets one or two Silver Soul Coin when he goes to a brothel. This one dish alone would be enough for him to live on for the rest of his life.

"Brother Yuan, are all the dishes here this expensive?" Ma Hongjun asked, pointing to the Flying Spirit Roasted Wings.

"Is it expensive? It's alright. These are the wings of a thousand-year-old Soul Beast, the Flying Spirit Eagle. Although the Flying Spirit Eagle is not very big and has three pairs of wings, it is still a thousand-year-old Soul Beast. This dish has twelve pairs of wings, so it would take at least four Flying Spirit Eagle. The price of 49,999 Gold Soul Coin is really not expensive. It's a fair price."

Lu Yuan nodded and said.

Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Ma Hongjun felt a sudden twitch in his heart. How could it be that Boss Yuan was so incredibly generous? He didn't even blink an eye at 50,000 Gold Soul Coin, and he even called it a fair price.

Looking at the Flying Spirit Roasted Wings, he really wanted to eat them, but the price was so high that he just couldn't bring himself to buy them.

Looking ahead, Ma Hongjun thought to himself, "Let's see if there's anything cheaper."

"Steamed White Water Threadfish, made from the thousand-year-old Soul Beast White Water Threadfish, is priced at 52,000 Gold Soul Coin per serving!"

"Braised Iron Plate Giant Lizard, made from the thousand-year-old Soul Beast Iron Plate Giant Lizard, priced at 35,000 Gold Soul Coin per serving!"

"I refuse to believe there's no cheap option." Ma Hongjun scrolled down and finally found a dish for him, a very familiar green vegetable.

"Stir-fried Baoqing Cabbage, made from the Hundred-Year Soul Beast Baoqing Cabbage, is priced at 3,999 Gold Soul Coin per serving."

"Wow, even a cabbage costs 3,999 Gold Soul Coin?" Ma Hongjun exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the prices of the dishes.

"What? Even cabbage is this expensive?" Upon hearing this, Flender and the others were shocked and couldn't help but ask.

"Hongjun, bring it here for the teacher to see," Flender said to Ma Hongjun.

Ma Hongjun handed over the menu, which Flender took immediately. Looking at the prices of the dishes, Flender's eyes widened instantly. Damn it, the cheapest cabbage costs 3,999 Gold Soul Coin. That means he can't even afford a plate of cabbage here.

"This isn't eating, it's eating money!" Flender slammed the menu on the table, looking utterly devastated.

With his three Gold Soul Coin, he couldn't even afford a cabbage, and his mentality began to break down.

"Pfft!" Ning Rongrong couldn't help but chuckle when she saw Flender's expression; Flender's appearance was just too funny.

"Hehe, since you're not ordering, Rongrong, you can order whatever you like." Lu Yuan chuckled, took another menu, and handed it to Ning Rongrong beside him.

Ning Rongrong, being a wealthy young woman, naturally didn't care about the price. She spent a lot of money on a special treat, costing at least 500,000 Gold Soul Coin.

When all the dishes were served, the huge table was completely filled.

"Everyone, let's get started," Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"Then let's eat." Flender gripped his chopsticks tightly, looking at the dishes as if they were money, not food.

The thought that these things had cost 500,000 Gold Soul Coin made his heart bleed, even though it wasn't his money that was spent.

In an instant, the Shrek team began a frenzied sweep.

An hour later, everyone was full. Flender let out a burp and picked his teeth with a toothpick.

Although it's expensive, it tastes really good; it's so delicious that you'd want to swallow your tongue.

"Ah, that's great!" Ma Hongjun groaned, this meal really made him feel good.

Oscar looked quite pleased with himself; he had thoroughly enjoyed the meal and was even a little reluctant to leave.

"Dean Flander, you've all come to Spirit City together. So how is Shrek doing now? Is it still open?" After the meal was finished, the waiter cleared away all the leftovers and brought out some freshly brewed tea. Lu Yuan took a sip of tea and asked softly.

Upon hearing this, Flender's face immediately darkened. He sighed and said, "Shrek has gone bankrupt, and now we are homeless."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuji and the others also looked gloomy.
