Chapter 0280: Instant Noodles Worth a Thousand Gold



Oglan knew what the Misty Sea was. Their family also had businesses in this area, and they had naturally heard of those restricted areas and dangerous zones. When she heard that Fang Zheng was actually going to the Misty Sea, Oglan was naturally very surprised - but soon, she put the matter behind her.

Because there is something more important before her.

"How can you eat something like this?!"

Looking at the grilled fish on the wooden plate in front of her, Oglen's face turned pale with anger. She had eaten all kinds of delicacies on her own cruise ship, but now here, she was only given a grilled fish, a few slices of dry bread and apple slices? This was their dinner? Was there anything wrong? !

Holding the wooden fork in her hand, looking at the food on the plate in front of her, Oglan really couldn't eat a single bite. However, she had been in the water for so long today that she had already consumed a lot of energy, and now she was even more hungry. So Oglan gritted her teeth, picked up the fork, picked up a piece of fish, and put it in her mouth...

“Wow!!”

The next moment, she vomited it out.

“Is this food edible?”

For Oglan, who was used to eating delicacies from land and sea, she could not imagine that there was such food. The fish was not scaled, but just the internal organs were removed and then randomly roasted over a fire and sprinkled with some salt. Not only was it fishy when she took a bite, but the fish meat was also so hard that she could not even bite it. From the time Oglan was born until now, she had never eaten anything like this. She immediately cried out in grievance.

"I won't eat it. I definitely won't eat this kind of thing!"

"But, but cousin, we really have nothing to eat..."

Seeing Oglan looking for death, the man in fancy clothes also looked aggrieved.

"I asked Captain Fox. The supplies on this ship were originally for their own people. Now that we have come, the supplies are not enough..."

"That won't do either. I absolutely cannot eat this. I'd rather die than eat this!"

Oglan threw away the fork in her hand, gritted her teeth and stared at the grilled fish on the plate fiercely, while the man in fancy clothes looked at her in embarrassment, then he scratched his hair helplessly.

"Or... let's go see what that gentleman and his friends have for dinner? If possible..."

"What are you talking about? We in the Platinum Family would never do such begging things!"

"No, no, no, cousin, that's not what I meant!"

Looking at Oglan's expression, the man in fancy clothes waved his hand hastily.

"I, we can buy some to eat, that's not a problem!"

“That’s true…”

Hearing her cousin's proposal, Oglan was really tempted. Although she felt that it was a bit embarrassing, her hungry stomach obviously didn't care about her face. So in the end, Oglan gritted her teeth and made a decision.

"Let's go see what they eat, and if possible, we can buy some!"

Although she had long thought that the food they ate should be different from that of Fang Zheng and the others, when Oglan walked out of the cabin with her retainers and cousin and came to the deck, the scene before her almost made her die of anger!

At the front of the deck, there was a rectangular dining table covered with a white tablecloth and lit with bright red candles. Faint magical light emerged from all around, blocking the splashing waves. On the table, there were all kinds of steaming food, including roast chicken, steak, and even delicious fish soup and freshly baked bread. Fang Zheng was sitting at the table with others, enjoying the rich food while chatting and laughing. Even the sailors were holding cups of fragrant wine and shouting to enjoy it.

It's simply insane!

Seeing this scene, Oglan almost got her eyes popped out of her head with anger. Looking at the sumptuous dinner in front of her and thinking about the unpalatable grilled fish she got - Oglan really wanted to rush over and overturn the table, then pour all the soup in the bowl on the man's face!

As a noble, how come you don't even know the etiquette of entertaining guests? You let us eat these things while you eat and drink? This is really too much! !

"Cousin, don't be angry, don't be angry!!"

Seeing that Oglan was about to rush over to argue with the other party, the man in fancy clothes beside her hurriedly grabbed his cousin.

"How can I not be angry? They actually neglected our Platinum Family like this. This is simply rude and extremely disrespectful!!"

"But you can't just rush over like that, cousin. They're having a meal... And don't forget that gentleman is a powerful being who dared to kill a knight of God's Favour in front of the temple. Cousin, you don't think you'll be luckier than that woman, do you?"

“Woo…”

Hearing this, Oglen's face suddenly changed. Connie's death was a great shock to the upper echelons of the Holy Kingdom. Oglen had met that woman several times. To be honest, although Oglen didn't like Connie, she was a knight favored by God after all, so even if Oglen didn't like her, he wouldn't go out of his way to cause trouble for her. Unexpectedly, someone actually completely ignored Connie's reputation as a knight favored by God and killed her in public!

Not only that, after that, the temple also revoked all the honors of Connie's family. Even Connie's father, the once glorious Knight Commander, was stripped of his status and forced to retire. No matter how powerful the Platinum Family was, it would not be more powerful than the Castina Family that had been blessed by God. And the Castina Family had already been killed by Fang Zheng. Even if he was the future star of the Platinum Family...

"What should I do...I can't not eat!"

"Leave it to me."

Hearing his cousin's pitiful appearance, the man in fancy clothes sighed, then he hesitated for a moment, and walked forward cautiously... But before the man in fancy clothes could get close, a magic servant soon blocked his way.

"What can I do for you?"

"Please also inform Mr. Fang Zheng..."

Looking at the magic servant in front of him, the man in fancy clothes was embarrassed. After all, he was a descendant of a noble family. Now he was begging for food like a beggar. Just doing this kind of thing made him feel ashamed. But what if he didn't do it? Would he really let them starve?

"We don't have enough food, so...Is it possible to buy some food from Mr. Fang Zheng?"

"Please wait a moment."

After hearing the request from the man in fancy clothes, the servant made up of magic runes turned around and looked at Fang Zheng. Soon, Fang Zheng raised his head, glanced over here, and then smiled slightly. At the same time, the magic servant also gave an answer.

"The master said yes, please wait."

After saying this, the man in fancy clothes saw the magic servant turn around and leave, and not long after, he took out a few cylinders that looked like they were made of paper from the big box next to him. The magic servant opened the paper covering the cylinders, then reached out and took out some strange seasonings and sprinkled them on them, then poured boiled water into them and covered them again.

Not long after, a fragrant aroma spread across the deck, not only did Oglen and the others salivate, but even the sailors couldn't help but swallow their saliva. After a long while, the magic servant picked up the plate again and came to the man in fancy clothes and Oglen.

"Let me eat first!"

After being attacked and then thrown into the sea, Oglan, who had not eaten for a day, could not help but reach out her hand. But before she could take the strange paper cup from the plate, the magic servant suddenly stepped back, then looked at Oglan and others in front of him and spoke.

"The host has ordered that payment must be made before the food is served. Please pay."

"Of course, I don't need this little money!"

Hearing the magic servant's answer, Oglan glared at him fiercely. Fortunately, her purse did not sink into the sea with other valuables, so Oglan had enough confidence.

"Tell me, how much is it?"

In response to Oglan's question, the magic servant gave an answer calmly.

"One platinum coin...one bucket."

"……What?"

Hearing this, Oglan blinked, then jumped up in frustration.

"Why doesn't he just go and grab it?!"

It was no wonder that Oglan was so furious, because platinum coins were the most valuable currency in the main world, and the value of one platinum coin was equal to one hundred gold coins, while that bucket of noodles was no more than one bowl... He actually needed a platinum coin for this bowl?

This is simply robbery!

"This is the master's order."

The magic servants seemed very calm, or perhaps it could be said that these magical creations themselves had no emotions.

"The master said, if you don't want it, just throw it all away."

"Ugh...that bastard..."

Hearing this, Oglan clenched her teeth even more. Then she glanced at the people around her and stomped her feet heavily.

"Okay, it's not like I don't have money. I'll give it to you. I'll give it to you, okay? Give all of us a bucket each!"
