Chapter 510 -497: Not An Ordinary Person

“I want a bowl of shredded pork noodles.” Shen Quan said.

After some thoughts, Shi Bao said, “Then I’ll have a bowl of pork ribs noodles, Manager Zhuang, what kind of noodles will you have?”

“No, thanks. This bowl is enough for me.” Zhuang Qingning declined politely.

The portion sizes in this noodle shop were quite large, and she would be almost stuffed after finishing a whole bowl.

Especially the fish soup, it was extremely rich, and there was no shortage of fish slices either; it was uncertain whether she could finish it all.

“Alright, one bowl of shredded pork noodles and one bowl of pork ribs noodles. Hurry up, please.” Shen Quan urged.

The taste of the noodles was still lingering in their mouths, making them eager to have another bowl as soon as possible.

“Alrighty.” The waiter happily headed to the backyard.

In no time, fresh bowls of noodles were served and the two of them started attacking the new bowls.

As for Zhuang Qingning, she continued to eat her fish soup noodles at a leisurely pace.

The flavors were fantastic and the soup was exquisite, such good noodles were rare to find.

Back in the modern society, Zhuang Qingning had traveled many places, tasting various specialty noodles from Shaanxi, Shanxi, Gansu, Chongqing, and other regions. Despite all this, she found the bowl of noodles in front of her extraordinarily tasty.

Although the term “world’s best” seemed a bit overblown, it wasn’t entirely without merit.

“Your shop…” Zhuang Qingning called over the waiter to talk, “Are we the first customers since your opening?”

The waiter scratched his ear in embarrassment but still nodded, “Yes, our noodle shop just opened three days ago, and you are indeed the first customers in our shop.”

“Our manager didn’t have a grand opening ceremony or anything, so many people still don’t know that there’s a new shop here. Plus, our noodle prices… as you all know, are not exactly cheap, so many customers leave upon hearing the price.”

“I suggested to the manager that he lower the price, but he said the ingredients used in the noodles and the soup are expensive, and this is the lowest he could go.”

“I told him that most customers aren’t very picky about their noodles, as long as it tastes better than the average noodle stall, there’s no need to add so many ingredients, but he insisted that the flavor wouldn’t be the same without them. He wouldn’t do things half-heartedly.”

“I suggested that we open a noodle shop in the county or city town where a bowl of fish soup noodles that costs ten Wen might sell better, but he insisted that the water here was the best, and only here could he make the perfect noodles…”

“But anyhow, he is immovable. He is determined to open the noodle shop here, he’s insistent on making the noodles this good and pricing them high.”

Realizing that he was talking too much, the waiter hurriedly apologized, “I apologize if I’ve spoken out of turn, I hope I didn’t bore you.”

“Not at all.” Zhuang Qingning smiled, “I find your manager interesting. The opening is always the hardest part, now that you guys are off to a start, there’s no need to worry.”

“Good quality is always recognized, don’t worry, good noodles will attract customers on their own.”

Although they were slightly expensive, people in this town weren’t lacking in foodies. As long as it tasted good, people weren’t afraid to spend a little more, it just means they would eat it less often.

It might be challenging for the shop to become extremely popular in this town, but it won’t be as deserted as it is currently.

Having heard these words, the waiter laughed even harder, “Coincidentally, miss, your words were exactly the same as the manager’s, so I’ll be borrowing your good luck.”

“It seems that you all are just passing by, if the business gets better in the future as you said, I’ll treat you to noodles the next time you visit.”

“Deal, next time I’ll have the chicken soup noodles.” Shen Quan laughed and replied.

“No problem, just order when you come.” The waiter laughed as he saw Zhuang Qingning and the others out of the door.

“The noodles today were really good.” Shi Bao, who just finished his two bowls of noodles, was still reminiscing about the taste, as he went to fetch the horses.

“Yes, they were pretty good.” Shen Quan nodded, suddenly laughing, “This reminded me of the dried noodles that Manager Zhuang plans to make. Those noodles, once boiled, will also be as chewy and smooth as these. Their noodles are selling well, so the business in Manager Zhuang’s dried noodle workshop will definitely be as good.”

“The noodles might be easy, but the soup… it’s not something a regular cook can make.” Zhuang Qingning sighed.

The quality of the dried noodle recipe provided by a certain company is unquestionable. Compared to this shop, their noodles are superior in some aspects, but the real challenge lies in creating a great soup to go with the noodles.

Taking the fish soup noodles Zhuang Qingning had earlier as an example, the soup was rich and tasty, without a hint of fishiness, a taste that regular cooks wouldn’t be able to replicate. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

King of noodles’ soup is likely to significantly outperform what Zhang Yongchang could create.

The manager of the “world’s best” noodle shop might just be more than meets the eye.

Zhuang Qingning kept looking at the noodle shop until she finally let down the curtain of the carriage.

Shi Bao didn’t think too much about it and just made fun of Zhuang Qingning, “Manager Zhuang is indeed not an ordinary person.”

“She’s more than just ordinary.” Shen Quan excitedly joined in, “Let’s not even talk about her cooking skills or the noodle workshop. Just looking at how she figured out that the noodle shop was newly opened, that the noodles were expensive, yet delicious, and that the shop manager is stubborn… she figured it all out! This skill is almost on par with Master Ding! It’s a pity that there are very few women officials in our dynasty, if Manager Zhuang could be a county magistrate, she’d be brilliant at solving cases.”

Zhuang Qingning, who was feeling a bit embarrassed by the praise, hurriedly waved her hands, “You’re exaggerating. I’m just a businesswoman who cares about business, so I can see things more clearly. If you change the subject, I might not have such insight.”

She then changed the topic and they started talking about other things.

They talked about dried noodles, sweet potato glass noodles, and century eggs, keeping each other entertained and engaged throughout the ride.

Of course, all the talking made them a bit thirsty, and their stomachs seemed to be getting hungry again…

At this point in the “world’s best” noodle shop, the waiter was cleaning up the noodle bowls that Zhuang Qingning and the others had left behind.
