Chapter 28 Smells Good



“The fish is so delicious!”

Caroline licked the corner of her lips with satisfaction, still a little bit unbelieving.

"There should be a little difference between my fish and the fish in the river behind us. After all, one is a sea fish and the other is a freshwater fish. But as long as they are cooked well, the difference won't be that big."

Zhang Feng gave a brief explanation, then seemed to remember something and continued.

"I will recruit some people to work for the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow, and fishing is one of the tasks. I will temporarily hand over this task to you, Marlowe. Is that ok?"

"yes."

Marlowe knocked on his chest solemnly, and the armor creaked.

Marlowe felt that Zhang Feng was the true aristocrat.

Here is the only two-meter-high stone wall in Hongye City, which is made entirely of black stone. The wall is built against the Senluo River and the dock, facing the Black Stone Forest.

Because there had been riots by wild beasts in the forest in the past, causing heavy losses to the dock, the previous city lord spent a huge amount of money to build this city wall, but he died before he could see the wall's effectiveness.

"Hey, Baker, I brought you some delicious food."

It's very tiring to manage Hongye City with just these few people. Zhang Feng plans to recruit more people, and he needs manpower from the top to the bottom.

"What food?"

"My Lord, this is too valuable!"

Marlowe, carrying a large pile of things in one hand, waved to Baker.

"You should take it if I tell you to. This is an order. I will tell you how to eat instant noodles... When you eat, you must be in a place with other people. You must not eat it secretly. Remember?"

Marlowe names two soldiers.

According to the current living standards, Zhang Feng feels that the most attractive thing is definitely gold coins, but the most direct sensory experience is probably food, so both hands must be prepared.

Although winter is approaching and the wild beasts in the mountains are unlikely to come out, we still need to defend ourselves.

Lord Mayor Zhang Feng has been in office for four days, and this is the first time Marlowe has gotten to know him up close.

Baker was very curious. Delicious food? White bread? But he remembered that there seemed to be not much white bread in the castle. Could it be that Lady Caroline saw his hard work and rewarded him? The soldiers standing guard nearby were also curious. Some of them even swallowed their saliva when they heard about food, because since the city lord's mansion ordered that they could only eat one meal a day, they had never had a full meal.

Although he didn't know what Zhang Feng's purpose was, since it had risen to the level of an order, Marlowe would naturally carry it out strictly.

Zhang Feng is not a person who likes to eat instant noodles very much, but he still feels greedy when he smells the aroma of instant noodles. He believes that in this world where spices are as valuable as gold, no one can resist the bombardment of this kind of seasoning.

"You'll find out in a moment."

"You, and you, go prepare a pot, a spoon, and boil water."

Knight Marlowe was holding a lot of things and felt some strange emotions in his heart.

The soldiers' series of actions were not concealed and immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Arrogance, conceit, selfishness, greed, suspicion and other aristocratic faults - he had none of them.

Because the dock of Hongye City is right next to it, although many people have left Hongye City, there are still many people on the dock.

The fish was an unexpected discovery. Zhang Feng did not expect that these people did not eat fish. There is a Senluo River to the north of Hongye City that surrounds the Sunset Mountains. The freshwater fish here must have multiplied a lot since no one is fishing. This is a good source of food, and Zhang Feng naturally would not let it go.

Be thankful that those greedy nobles don't find excuses to deduct your salary.

Baker had already seen what was in Marlowe's hand. He looked at the colorful packaging with some curiosity. This kind of bright fabric was not something that ordinary people could own, but it didn't look like fabric.

"yes."

But after all, they were just soldiers and did not dare to cross the line. They could only observe secretly with their peripheral vision.

Knight Baker led several soldiers to guard here.

Especially the rich flavor of instant noodles, which is simply unbeatable for those who have never eaten it.

In particular, Lord Zhang Feng also gave him a lot of instant noodles and sausages. Zhang Feng actually asked him to share such precious food with the soldiers. In the past, Marlowe could never have imagined this.

The way to attract people is simple, that is to increase the salary.

Baker was happy to see Marlowe come to visit him.

How to put it, this Lord Zhang Feng is different from the nobles he has in mind.

Ma Luo has lived for more than 40 years. He feels that apart from the master who had been kind to him in the past, Zhang Feng might be his wise leader.

Baker was a knight taught by Marlowe, and he always regarded Marlowe as his brother. When they carried out missions in the past, they always went together. Missions like this one of garrisoning were performed by another knight.

"yes."

But now there are only two knights in the whole city, so Baker can only take on this not very pleasant task. After all, it is quite boring to stay here every day.

Marlowe kept it a secret, but to be honest he didn't know what instant noodles would taste like when cooked. This was also his first time.

"Take all of these and share them with Baker and the soldiers stationed there later."

With such mixed feelings, Marlowe came to the north of the city.

Baker seemed very happy to see Marlowe coming.

You expect them to share with you? That's unthinkable.

He is approachable, likes cleanliness, takes the lives of his people very seriously, and his life is also very refined. Just the sight of these delicacies that he has never heard of is enough to make people feel excited.

"Hey, Knight Marlowe."

Soon, the soldiers brought a big pot and set it up. Another soldier brought firewood, lit the fluffy tinder with flint, and then used the tinder to ignite the firewood.

Zhang Feng’s idea was very simple. Now Hongye City was not only short of food, but also short of people.

"What is this? It's pretty nice."

These valuable things, Master Zhang Feng never hid them. The things in that strange black package were worth at least several hundred gold coins. You have to know that the entire Baron Charles's title and territory were only sold for 100 gold coins! And Master Zhang Feng trusted me very much, and was not worried at all that I would run away with them. This trust made Marlowe feel touched that a man would die for his confidant, and his heart was warm.

The soldier was a little curious and didn't know what Knight Marlowe was going to do, but he still followed the order meticulously.

Marlowe didn't dare to take it. Although he had never eaten instant noodles, he knew it must be good stuff when he saw the colorful packaging. Besides, he had eaten a sausage, so it must be good if it could be put together with the sausage.

Zhang Feng picked up more than ten packs of instant noodles and several bags of sausages and handed them to Marlo.

After the water boiled, Marlo tore open the package and poured the instant noodles and seasoning directly into it.

"Um?"

As soon as Baker, who had a keen nose, opened the seasoning packet, he smelled the fragrance.

And when all these seasonings are melted, the instant noodles placed in the air vents give off a rich aroma that spreads all over the place.

“Smells so good!”
