Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1198: Chapter 1197 Crystal Palace

Li Qiuci heard Lin Dong agree, and a trace of cunning flashed in her eyes.

The two placed the herbs in the trunk, then Li Qiuci drove the car, taking Lin Dong to that magical place she mentioned.

Lin Dong did not know how many streets she passed through or how far they traveled.

He only knew that it took them well over half an hour by car to arrive outside a mansion.

Inside that manor stood an eight-story building, each level of which was constructed like a stadium, and the materials on the outside appeared to be made of crystal.

”Master Lin, we’ve arrived. This place is really interesting in the capital of Paocai Nation.”

”We call it ’Crystal Palace.’ There are eight floors in total, and each floor has a different purpose. For example, the first floor is a gathering place for tycoons and celebrities. Tycoons and distinguished people from all walks of life often come here!”

”The second and third floors are a huge trading venue. Here, various antiques, herbs, jewelry, memorabilia, and treasures are traded. You can choose to barter, and of course, if the seller is willing to sell, you can also choose to buy with money.”

”The prohibited medicine we’re here to buy should be available here as well...”

At this point, Li Qiuci surreptitiously observed Lin Dong’s expression, finding him expressionless, unsure of what he was thinking.

”The fourth floor is for some entertainment places, such as dancehalls and clubhouses!”

”The fifth floor is the casino.”

”The sixth, seventh, and eighth floors also each have their functions.”

”Oh right, there’s also the underground floor, which is a boxing gym. Many tycoon descendants particularly like to go there. They all have their own fighters and often hold underground boxing matches. Apart from using this form of boxing to have fun, they also use it to settle some private disputes...”

”In this Crystal Palace, there’s nothing you can think of that it doesn’t have.”

”Even we children of tycoons see this place as heaven.”

”...”

Listening to Li Qiuci’s words, Lin Dong nodded. This was indeed a paradise for the rich.

A place for the rich to indulge in pleasure.

”Let’s go in,” Lin Dong said to Li Qiuci indifferently.

Li Qiuci nodded and then led Lin Dong into this so-called ’Crystal Palace.’

At the door, security naturally stopped them, but Li Qiuci took out a platinum card, and after seeing this card, the security personnel respectfully bowed to the two.

”Welcome, Platinum Member!”

Li Qiuci nodded her head and then led Lin Dong into the first floor.

The first floor was resplendent with gold and glitter, a place for gatherings of the rich and celebrities.

The venue was very large, with private seating areas, a buffet area, a mingling area, a drinking area, and so on...

At the moment, the private seating area was filled with successful individuals styled as elites, wearing branded clothes, sitting there chatting. Most of these people were well-known tycoons of Paocai Nation.

In the buffet area, several European-style long tables with hundreds of years of history were set up, with a variety of delicious food on them.

Dishes like caviar, French foie gras, and truffles would let you eat till you’re stuffed, while Golden Fish that cost tens of thousands per pound went ignored, large king crabs started at several dozen pounds, and lobsters were as thick as an adult’s leg... So many delicacies that if exchanged for money, common people could not earn in a lifetime.

Yet, such extravagant self-serve delicacies had only a few takers because those people had tired of them from eating them so often.

In the mingling area, there were many women in lavish outfits, with refined looks and distinguished temperament.

Lin Dong wasn’t one to chase stars, otherwise, he would have recognized that among those women, there were several in-demand female stars of Paocai Nation.

Of course, these female stars did not have the high and mighty attitude they were shown by fans in the past. Instead, they were looking coy and trying to please those around them.

Because here, the status of a female star was simply like that of a plaything.

Which of the children of the tycoons could they possibly compare to?

The items used here were each priceless treasures.

Even the wine glasses used for serving drinks were made of jade, not to mention other decorations like vases and paintings placed nearby.

Lin Dong felt some amazement at the luxury before his eyes. This kind of life, how could ordinary people possibly imagine or aspire to it?

You might toil for a lifetime, work hard your entire life, and perhaps still not earn enough to afford even one of their wine glasses!

Seeing Lin Dong slightly lost in thought, Li Qiuci Laughingly Said:

”Master Lin, if you’re interested in any female star in our Paocai Nation, I can ask her to come and keep you company.”

”With your handsome appearance, surely many female stars would be willing to do anything with you.”

Lin Dong’s expression darkened slightly, and his gaze swept over Li Qiuci with a hint of depth.

”Don’t play any tricks on me; I don’t like women with ulterior motives.”

Li Qiuci shuddered inside, hastily saying, ”Yes, yes. Master Lin, I meant no offense.”

”Master Lin, shall we head to the second and third floors? That’s the real trading venue!”

”Mm-hmm.” Lin Dong nodded and was about to follow Li Qiuci to the second floor.

But at that moment, a voice rang out.

”Eh, you, the man from Dragon Country, what are you doing here?”

This voice was clearly directed at Lin Dong, who couldn’t help but look toward the source.

He was surprised to find it was Li Han, the Paocai Nation star he had encountered at the airport earlier.

It was unexpected to meet her here.
