Soul Land II: Transmigrated as Huo Yuhao, Apprenticed to Yao Chen

"Ordering?" Tang Ya glanced at the grilled fish in Huo Yuhao's hand, swallowing saliva.

Meanwhile, Bei Bei also noticed that Huo Yuhao currently had no interest in joining the sect, as he was busy running his stall. Chatting with him would disrupt his business.

At this moment, a male student in a yellow school uniform, who had been waiting nearby for a while, approached and asked, "Hey, little brother, how much do you sell your stuff for?"

"Hello, senior." Huo Yuhao smiled and replied, "Grilled fish is twenty gold soul coins per fish, meat skewers are five gold soul coins each, and vegetables are two gold soul coins each. It's a small business, and I don't offer credit."

"What?!" The male student was taken aback. "Twenty gold soul coins for a grilled fish? Little brother, is your fish encrusted with gold or something?"

"This is a family recipe, and today is my first time doing business in Shrek City," Huo Yuhao said with a smile. "If you find it expensive, you can try a meat skewer or grilled vegetables first. If you don't like it, you don't have to pay."

"Free if it's not good?" The male student's eyes lit up. "Then give me a meat skewer, and make it fatty, please."

Huo Yuhao shrugged and handed over a skewer with plenty of fatty meat. The meat skewer, marinated in sauce and grilled to perfection by Huo Yuhao, had turned golden brown, emitting a fragrant aroma that tantalized the senses.

Seeing Tang Ya secretly wiping saliva from her mouth, Bei Bei smiled indulgently, took out forty gold soul coins from his storage soul device, and handed them to Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, I'll take two grilled fish."

Huo Yuhao nodded, picked up two grilled fish, and handed them over. Bei Bei kept one for himself and gave the larger one to Tang Ya.

The golden-brown grilled fish exuded a faint aroma of oil, enticing Tang Ya to start tasting it eagerly.

As her teeth sank into the grilled fish, there was a slight crackling sound. The fish skin was crispy and aromatic without being burnt. Beneath it, the flesh was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned.

With just one bite, Tang Ya's eyes widened, too busy enjoying the taste to offer praise. In no time, she had devoured the entire fish.

Meanwhile, the male student who had tasted the meat skewer felt like his taste buds were exploding with flavor. The meat, refined by charcoal fire and enhanced by Huo Yuhao's special sauce, was even more delicious.

Tender, crispy, savory, and spicy flavors danced in his mouth, and the delicious taste permeated his soul. Faintly, he felt a surge of energy flowing through his meridians. Though the increase in his soul power was slight, it intertwined with the pleasure of savoring the food, making it unforgettable.

"Is the meat in these skewers from soul beasts?!" The male student asked in amazement.

"Yes, it's from ten-year soul beasts, spirit sheep, and spirit cows. I bought the meat fresh from the vendor that day," Huo Yuhao replied with a smile.

"Give me ten more skewers!" The male student took out a heavy pouch from his pocket and threw it on the counter. "Keep the change. Also, give me a few vegetable skewers to try. Oh, and I'll take a grilled fish too!"

"Yuhao, we'll have two more as well!" Tang Ya had already finished her grilled fish, and even Bei Bei, who had only eaten half of his, had devoured it.

However, even so, her taste buds still weren't satisfied, and she once again took two grilled fish from Huo Yuhao's hands.

Five grilled fish sold out quickly, with only a few meat skewers and vegetable skewers left, nearly all of which were bought by that male student. At this point, among the onlookers, those wealthy and greedy second-generation students couldn't help themselves.

A male student in purple hurriedly approached Huo Yuhao's stall, dropping a bag filled with gold soul coins. He then swept everything from Huo Yuhao's grill and began to devour it eagerly on the side.

Following him, another senior in black approached, dropping an even larger money pouch and buying out everything Huo Yuhao would grill next, intending to treat his friends.

Finally, even these people started bidding against each other, offering high prices. However, such bidding inevitably led to chaos, and the surrounding area became noisy.

"Gentlemen, please allow me to say something," Huo Yuhao tapped the countertop and spoke loudly. His words quieted the arguing Shrek Academy students, who turned to look at him.

"Today is my first day in business, but I've brought plenty of goods, so no one will leave empty-handed. The prices for grilled fish, meat, and vegetables are all fixed and won't increase. I hope everyone will cooperate."

"However, there will be a barbecue king appearing at my stall every day, sold through auction rather than at a fixed price! Now, let me introduce today's barbecue king, the Golden Dragon Fish!"

With a stroke on his storage soul device ring, Huo Yuhao made a fish stand appear, showcasing a golden dragon fish over a meter long.

Seeing this massive golden-red fish weighing twenty kilograms, the onlooking students exclaimed in surprise.

"Matching this barbecue king will naturally require the most generous patrons! All of you are the pride of the academy, destined to soar to the heavens and ascend like dragons. This golden dragon fish will bring you good luck."

"So now, let's begin today's auction! The barbecue king, the Golden Dragon Fish, starts at one hundred gold soul coins. Let the bidding commence!"

"Barbecue king? Interesting. I bid three hundred!"

"Five hundred. Today, my brothers and I will feast on this grilled golden dragon fish!"

"One thousand soul coins! The golden dragon fish is indeed a symbol of good fortune, fitting for someone as wise and brave as me!"

Guided by Huo Yuhao's intention, the wealthy second-generation students around him began bidding. Even Bei Bei couldn't resist Tang Ya's pitiful gaze and joined the bidding army.

In the end, the golden dragon fish was sold to Bei Bei at a price of two thousand four hundred gold soul coins. Huo Yuhao then gave Bei Bei a limited edition token made of refined iron, engraved with a vivid golden dragon fish.

"Every patron who buys the barbecue king will receive a limited edition token. With five tokens, you can exchange for one day's free consumption of the barbecue king at my stall, without the need for auction on that day!"

Huo Yuhao's business model was full of tricks. After all, there would be many customers coming for the auction every day, and it would be extremely difficult for one person to obtain all five tokens. Even if Bei Bei's elder was the Dragon God Douluo Mu En, he couldn't afford such expenses.

However, such discounts would stimulate the desire of buyers to spend more, encouraging them to continue bidding eagerly without feeling bored after winning the auction once.

"In this situation, I only need a week to go and customize a medicine cauldron and purchase the materials for alchemy," Huo Yuhao said inwardly, feeling delighted.

"Indeed, if a poor loser wants to rise up, he must start from being a fishmonger!"
