Chapter 510: Chapter 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.”
