Chapter 16: Su's Instant Noodle Shop opens, shocking instant noodles

~7 min read 1,339 words

The morning sun shone down.

A new day arrived.

Liyue Harbor also began to bustle.

And on the main street.

Near Chihu Rock.

A shop quietly changed its plaque.

[Su's Instant Noodles]

Previously, this place sold calligraphy and paintings, but later, due to poor management, it was half-closed.

Today, everyone discovered that it had turned into a noodle shop.

"Huh... when I passed by yesterday, this place was still selling calligraphy and paintings, how did it become a noodle shop now?"

"I don't know, it seems they were busy all night. It was so noisy I couldn't sleep well..."

"Su's Instant Noodles? Why don't we go in and take a look..."

"Let's go."

Customers arrived at the noodle shop and found that it only sold three types of noodles.

[Tonkotsu Chicken Soup Noodles]

[Braised Beef Noodles]

[Seafood Instant Noodles]

Although the variety was a bit small, the price was very accessible.

A bowl of instant noodles only cost six Mora.

And there was a takeout option, though the price was two Mora more expensive.

"Staff... why is takeout more expensive?"

"Oh, customer... our takeout is different from other places. As long as you take it away, the shelf life can last for three months! Whenever you want to eat.

Just pour boiling water over it!"

"What? A shelf life of three months..."

"That's right, if you don't trust the taste, you can order a bowl to taste... there are only three flavors for now, there will be more flavors later!"

"Then give me a bowl of Braised Beef Noodles!"

"Coming right up..."

In less than five minutes.

A steaming bowl of beef noodles was delivered to the customer.

The aroma was mouth-watering.

Although there were no large chunks of beef, some beef crumbs were enough.

After all, the price was set there.

He picked up the noodles and took a light bite, and couldn't help but have his eyes light up. This taste is not bad!

He had originally thought that cheap meant poor quality.

As it turned out, the taste far exceeded his imagination.

In less than a few minutes.

The sound of slurping noodles rose one after another in the noodle shop.

"Another bowl..."

"Pack some up for me!"

"I want three bowls..."

The customers who came to taste it were conquered by these so-called Braised Beef Noodles.

It's not to say the taste was top-notch.

Wanmin Restaurant was nearby, and no matter how high the culinary skill was, it couldn't beat theirs.

However, the noodles here were fast and cheap.

You could just wipe your mouth after eating and go to work.

How great.

When the first customer finished eating and came to the counter, he saw three small paper boxes placed in front of him.

"This is..."

"This is the Braised Beef flavored instant noodles you ordered for takeout. The packaging is simple for now, but don't worry... this thing is waterproof and moisture-proof.

There are instructions on the back.

You'll understand as soon as you look at it..."

Listening to the staff's explanation.

The customer flipped the box over.

Sure enough, a few simple sketches appeared before his eyes.

Put a noodle cake into a bowl, then add boiling water and seasoning, and you can eat it in three minutes.

"So simple?"

The customer was a bit incredulous.

You can eat just by using boiling water? ===== CHAPTER 43 =====

If one were to travel for business in the future, wouldn't they not have to worry about food at all?

"Of course..." the staff said with a smile: "Our instant noodles all have this method of consumption. If you have any questions about the taste.

You can directly open a bag and taste it... we definitely won't lie to you."

"Alright... I want to see how this thing is made!"

Although this customer was already full, he still wanted to see if the noodles he just ate.

Were really made like this.

The staff didn't dawdle and directly took out a clean bowl.

Opened the packaging paper.

A square noodle cake.

And two very small bags.

One was salt.

One was sauce.

When he put everything into the large bowl, he began to pour in boiling water.

Nearby customers also gathered around.

Quietly waiting for three minutes.

As the lid was opened.

The exact same aroma drifted out from inside.

"This is actually real!!!"

"It's no different from what we just ate!!!"

"Quick, taste it..."

Urged by the others, the customer began to taste it.

As it turned out, the flavor was exactly the same as what he had just eaten.

Slurp.

Slurp.

In less than a few minutes, a bowl of noodles was finished.

"It's truly delicious... too tasty, staff, give me ten more packs!!!"

"Coming right up... ten packs of Braised Beef flavored instant noodles!"

People nearby saw this scene and began to choose the flavors they wanted to take away.

Whether it's to store at home.

Or to carry while traveling, these instant noodles are an indispensable item.

Some even asked if they could buy just the noodle cakes.

After eating such chewy noodles.

They couldn't eat the hand-pulled noodles at home anymore.

"Of course you can, but... we only have three hundred noodle cakes for now, maybe there will be more tomorrow..."

The staff said with some difficulty.

But the customers didn't care.

As long as they had something to eat.

In less than an hour.

This Su's Noodle Shop began to boom.

Customers came in an endless stream.

And the sounds of praise came one after another.

Inside Wanmin Restaurant.

Chef Mao looked at his deserted shop, feeling a bit puzzled.

"The weather is nice today, why aren't there many people?"

Generally speaking.

Except for rain or snow.

His shop would always be packed.

What's going on today? ===== CHAPTER 44 =====

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Xiangling, who had just finished washing her face and was yawning, walked in from behind the courtyard.

Chef Mao scratched his head and said: "I don't know what's going on today... the customer flow has dropped by eighty percent, logically speaking, this shouldn't happen..."

It's not a holiday.

And it's not any special day.

How could this happen?

At this time, a customer nearby looked up and said: "It seems a Su's Instant Noodle shop opened nearby. I saw a lot of customer flow when I came.

Did they all go there?"

"Su's Instant Noodles? What is that thing..."

Chef Mao didn't understand.

The dish name is weird.

And, it's just a noodle shop, is it that exaggerated?

Xiangling heard this and said: "Then I'll just go and see..."

Yesterday, she studied the recipes given by the Little Master for half the night.

She could be considered to have gained some insights.

She didn't expect to encounter interesting dishes today.

How lucky.

When Xiangling arrived at Su's Instant Noodles, she finally understood why her home was so deserted.

Because there were people everywhere nearby.

It was even more popular than a holiday.

"Give me three packs of seafood noodles!"

"I want five packs of Tonkotsu Chicken Soup Noodles!"

"Ten servings of Braised Beef Noodles!"

Such sounds were endless.

Xiangling looked at people leaving with paper boxes and couldn't help but ask: "What's inside?"

"Oh, it's Xiangling. Hehe... this is Braised Beef Noodles, it's very delicious... I'm planning to go on a long trip, so I bought ten boxes."

"Braised... Beef Noodles? Wouldn't it go bad in ten days..."

As a head chef.

Xiangling naturally knows the shelf life of dishes.

Generally speaking, it goes bad in at most two days.

If you heat it up, you can eat it for three days.

That customer was also a regular at Wanmin Restaurant, and hearing Xiangling ask this, he couldn't help but say a few more words.

"Hehe... that's the power of instant noodles. I heard from the staff that it can last for three months."

"What? Three months!!!"

Xiangling was startled.

What kind of thing is this?

To be so amazing. ===== CHAPTER 45 =====
