OFR – Chapter 153 The branch line of the super rich man’s aura is strengthened.

After returning to the living room, Mu Bai skillfully searched for the Southern Forum and logged in using the account he had registered last time.

“Ding! Welcome back, the esteemed Mr. Leng, the king has returned!”

As soon as he logged in, a welcome message popped up on the forum page.

Glancing at his account, Mu Bai noticed that at some point, his status had been upgraded to a Supreme User.

This made him chuckle.

It was clear—no matter where you were, money would always grant you the most prestigious and top-tier treatment.

After all, the last time he visited the Southern Miscellaneous Forum, there was no such welcome message.

Yet, after spending over 80 million, not only did this message appear, but his account was also upgraded to the highest privilege level.

After a brief smile, Mu Bai casually closed the page.

Without wasting time scrolling through the cluttered homepage, he went straight to the secondary category page.

The secondary category page remained the same as before, offering many classifications.

This time, however, he bypassed the medicinal herbs section, which had a massive following of over 10 million, and instead selected the rare flowers and plants section, which had only about 3 million followers.

To be honest, 3 million was comparable to the Nanjing City Flower Forum’s following.

However, in terms of the quality of plants listed, the Southern Miscellaneous Forum, being a major forum covering all of southern China, still offered plants of significantly higher quality than those found on the Nanjing Flower Forum.

Upon entering the flowers and plants section, Mu Bai was greeted by numerous posts featuring various plant species—some were for sale, while others were looking to purchase.

He skimmed through each post.

[Premium Purple-flowered Stonecrop for sale, priced at 19,000 yuan. Contact me via QQ: 5623***.]**

[Looking to buy a rare orchid, preferably the Datang Phoenix Feather variety. Money is not an issue. Serious sellers, please DM me. Thanks!]

[Selling premium Golden Tortoiseshell Seedlings, 3,000 yuan per plant. Limited stock of 100 units. Bulk buyers welcome. Contact via forum DM.]

[Seeking to purchase a quasi-rare peony. Rare-grade is also acceptable. Sellers, add me on WeChat: DD566. Serious inquiries only. Scammers, stay away!]**

…

There were many posts. Mu Bai sat on the sofa, scrolling through them idly. After searching for over an hour, he still hadn’t found any suitable plants for cultivation.

After all, he was now looking for exceptionally rare plants—something like the Datang Phoenix Feather. However, even on a large platform like the Southern Miscellaneous Forum, such rare flowers were scarce.

Since searching like this was proving time-consuming and inefficient, Mu Bai decided to make his own post—both to acquire rare plants and to sell his Super-Premium Tiger Tail Grass and Super-Premium Purple Gold Peony.

[Selling a Super-Premium 19-tailed Tiger Tail Grass and an exceptionally beautiful Super-Premium Purple Gold Peony. Photos attached. Prices negotiable via forum DM. Interested buyers, leave a comment. Also, looking to purchase rare plant varieties at high prices. Serious sellers, please DM.]

After writing the post title, he uploaded over a dozen photos he had just taken.

It was the same process he had followed the first time he listed a cactus on the Nanjing Flower Forum.

However, this time, what he was selling wasn’t a mere ten-thousand-yuan cactus but sky-high priced super-premium plants.

After finalizing the post, Mu Bai initially planned to exit the forum immediately.

However, after some thought, he decided to top up 2,000 yuan in forum currency and turned his post into a “Thousand-Reply Reward Thread”.

This move would encourage more engagement from forum users, keeping his post pinned at the top for maximum visibility.

“Hmm, I’ll check back later.”

Satisfied with his work, Mu Bai nodded to himself. Glancing at his phone’s browser clock, he realized it was already past 5 p.m.

Looking out the window, he saw that night was once again falling.

“I should go out for dinner.”

Stretching lazily, Mu Bai got up from the sofa, preparing to head out for a meal.

However, just as he was about to leave—before he even reached the door—a series of glowing text prompts suddenly appeared before him.

“A new mission? Hmm? This is…”

Curious, Mu Bai focused on the glowing text.

After reading for about ten seconds, he realized that the Luxury Tycoon Aura‘s side mission had been significantly enhanced—not just a little, but a lot.

“Ding! Since the host has the means but has not been actively progressing the Luxury Tycoon Aura mission, this side mission’s rewards have been upgraded. Within 24 hours, purchase a luxury car worth no less than 30 million yuan and a mansion worth no less than 100 million yuan. Completing this task will grant you: a ‘Mystical Dice,’ a ‘Surprise Spending Package,’ 50,000 online currency coins, and the activation of the Black Market Cashout feature!”

“Complete it within 24 hours?”

Mu Bai was slightly taken aback.

This sudden enhanced side mission reward completely disrupted his original plan to prioritize the “One Man’s Dominance” mission chain.

However, the rewards were incredibly tempting.

In addition to the usual Mystical Dice and Surprise Spending Package, he would now receive 50,000 online currency coins and the Black Market Cashout feature.

Although Mu Bai wasn’t sure what the Black Market Cashout entailed just yet, the value of 50,000 online currency coins alone was already comparable to 5 billion yuan in cash.

“Hmm, the rewards are great, but at this hour, the car dealerships and real estate offices are probably closed.”

Mu Bai nodded in approval of the rewards. He was eager to complete the task quickly and claim his rewards—especially the Black Market Cashout feature, which piqued his curiosity the most.

Deep in thought, he continued walking toward the apartment door.

But just as he reached the entrance—

Ding-dong! Ding-dong!

The sudden sound of the doorbell made Mu Bai slightly frown.

In Nanjing City, very few people knew where he lived.

Even Qian Yiwen, whom he interacted with the most, had no idea.

So, who could be ringing his doorbell?

As he curiously approached the door, preparing to check who it was, a soft and slightly seductive female voice came from outside.

“Hello, Mr. Mu, are you home?”
