Chapter 6
Under the constraints of morality and the condemnation of conscience, Jiang Li pushed back the bag full of gold coins and refused: "No, no more."
Chris and others were disappointed: "Is it not enough?"
Yes, such delicious food must be a treasure that only the nobles in the capital can enjoy. Although they are lucky to taste it, the goddess of luck will not always favor him...
"It's not that it's not enough, but that it's too much." Jiang Li explained: "Mr. Chris left five gold coins when he came back to the supermarket last time. At that time, I didn't have time to call you. Those bags of instant noodles and mineral water are far from worth five gold coins."
Chris was stunned: "What?"
"The instant noodles are still on the original shelf. If you need anything else, you are welcome to continue shopping." Jiang Li emphasized that the humans in the other world might not understand, "The supermarket sells everything, snacks, drinks, daily necessities, everything, and the prices are very favorable!"
Chris and his companions listened in a daze until everyone stood in front of the instant noodles shelf with a basket in their hands. Everyone was still a little confused. Too much
?
Those five gold coins can not only buy such delicious instant noodles, but also buy a lot of them?
What a generous shopkeeper!
There was no time to sigh. Looking at the whole shelf of instant noodles in front of them, everyone's eyes lit up, as if they had stepped into the treasure house of the dragon clan, and they couldn't wait to grab the instant noodles and put them in the basket.
Whether it's braised beef, Laotan pickled cabbage, or chicken stewed with mushrooms... get them all!
The baskets were piled high with instant noodles until they were about to fall down after one more bag. Then everyone returned to the cashier with their full baskets full of satisfaction.
Looking at the instant noodles in front of him, which were only other flavors, and the shining eyes of Chris and others, Jiang Li: "..."
He took a deep breath, scanned the code of the instant noodles, and asked: "Mr. Chris, don't you need anything else besides instant noodles?"
"Instant noodles are enough!" Chris said firmly: "After eating instant noodles, I can no longer tolerate other foods. If I can eat such delicious food every day, it will be the happiest thing in the world."
"That's right." His companions echoed, "Normally, when we adventurers accept a mission and leave the city, we can only fill our stomachs by picking wild vegetables and catching monsters, except for some long-lasting bread. However, if you put monster meat in instant noodles, even the unpalatable giant lizard meat will become much more delicious."
Jiang Li's face turned pale: "Giant, giant lizard meat?"
When it comes to this, everyone has a lot to say.
At first, it was Chris's fantasy, and the result surprised them. After that, every time they finished eating instant noodles, they would put the monster meat into the remaining soup to cook. After a while, they also summarized which monster meat is most suitable for instant noodles.
Chris and others enthusiastically shared this experience with Jiang Li.
Jiang Li said politely, "...Thank you." But it's really not necessary.
Hearing them describe the taste of monster meat, most of the ordinary monster meat tastes terrible, and the delicious high-grade monster meat costs hundreds or thousands of gold coins per pound. Not only can ordinary people not afford it, but even adventurers can't easily hunt it. It's very rare. Think about the poor cooking methods and seasonings in the other world... As a person who grew up with Chinese food, Jiang Li's heart was filled with sympathy.
"In that case, do you want to try the hot pot base?" Jiang Li recommended.
What's instant noodles? Is there anything more versatile than hot pot base?
It can be used as a seasoning for cooking, spicy hot pot and grilled fish, and it is very tolerant. The hot pot is so big that it can hold everything. Even a kitchen novice who can't cook can use a piece of base to cook a pot of fragrant spicy hot pot.
"Hot pot base?" Chris and his companions looked at each other and asked sincerely, "What is that?"
Jiang Li went to the shelf to get them hot pot base. Considering that there may not be peppers in the other world, and the people in the other world may not be able to eat spicy food, he took two kinds of hot pot bases, clear soup and tomato.
In addition, Jiang Li also took ham sausage and canned luncheon meat, which can be added to instant noodles and hot pot, and have a long shelf life and can be stored without worrying about spoiling.
As for how to introduce it to the people of the other world...
Jiang Li thought about it and said concisely: "It's something that tastes better than instant noodles."
Chris and others: "!!!"
Their eyes on the things in front of them suddenly changed.
When checking out, several people took out the bag of gold coins again.
Jiang Li declined: "No, Mr. Chris gave me five gold coins last time. You are the first customers, so just consider it as a gift from me." His supermarket was having a discount when it opened on Earth.
"No, no, no." Chris insisted: "Thank you very much for your generosity, but we bought too much and we really can't accept it." At this moment, their backpacks with space magic expansion were already filled with instant noodles. If they shamelessly accepted it, they would condemn themselves!
Jiang Li took a few gold coins from the bag, but they refused to take the money back.
Seeing this, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "In that case, can you do me a favor?"
Chris was stunned: "Help?"
...
Tavern.
The city of Dore was shrouded in darkness at night, and the doors and windows of the shops were closed, only the tavern was brightly lit. Adventurers from all over the Lalan Continent often went to the tavern with their companions to drink after completing their missions to relieve their fatigue after fighting the monsters.
As soon as it got dark, the tavern was already full of people.
As soon as Chris and his companions stepped into the tavern, they received many greetings.
"Chris, you're here."
"Aren't you going to Dufa? Why are you still in Dore?"
Of course, they were here to buy the magical instant noodles.
Chris responded to the greetings of others and found an empty table with his companions to sit down. He answered in his heart, but he didn't tell others that because of this store called Supermarket, he and his companions were discussing whether to stay in Dore.
The tavern also serves food. Many adventurers would order food when they came to drink. The taste was pretty good.
In the past, Chris would also have his own dinner in the tavern.
But today, he and his companions only ordered a cup of the most ordinary beer, then asked the owner of the tavern for hot water, and waited quietly.
The tavern was full of people, noisy and noisy, and the drunk adventurers boasted loudly about their heroic deeds. At first, no one cared, but when a strong fragrance gradually dissipated and began to spread in the tavern, gradually, everyone noticed this sudden fragrance.
The overbearing smell was hard to ignore the moment it was smelled. The attack composed of countless spices was a temptation that even the most powerful adventurer could not resist.
Gulp. I don't know who swallowed first.
I want to eat. This is the first reaction.
Even the adventurers who had just finished their meal had their appetites aroused.
"What's that smell?"
"It smells so good."
"What kind of food smells so good?"
The smell that came from nowhere made people's hearts itch. The crowd was noisy for a while, and soon, someone noticed Chris and his group who were concentrating on eating noodles with their heads down. The smell came from the bowls in their hands.
"Boss," someone shouted, "Give me a portion of the food they're eating!"
The tavern owner, who was busy serving wine, turned around and replied, "This is not food from our store, they brought it themselves."
"Hey, Chris, what are you eating?"
The adventurer who was familiar with Chris walked over first. The closer he was, the stronger the aroma was. Looking at the dark brown soup in the bowl, the golden noodles, and especially the enjoyment on Chris's and others' faces, the tempting aroma and pictures stimulated his senses everywhere.
He asked anxiously, "What is it that smells so good?"
No matter how many times he ate it, he couldn't help but be addicted to instant noodles, but they had an appointment with the supermarket owner. Remembering what he had promised the owner, Chris raised his head from the bowl with difficulty.
"It's instant noodles."
"There's a store called Supermarket in Dore City, where you can buy this food called instant noodles."
Irene added, "And it's very cheap, only five silver coins!"
...
The next morning.
After waiting for a while and seeing no new customers, Jiang Li turned over the hourglass and came to a different world.
As soon as the scene changed, he was shocked.
He saw that the supermarket was crowded with people, almost blocking out the sunlight. As soon as the supermarket appeared on the shopping street, it was immediately discovered by the people who had been waiting for a long time.
They all dressed the same as Chris, and as soon as the door opened, the group of people couldn't wait to rush in.
The adventurers waved their money bags, slapped gold and silver coins in front of Jiang Li, and rushed to ask: "I want to buy instant noodles!"
"Hurry up and give me the food that Chris eats!"
"The more the better!"
