Chapter 544: Managing a Noodle Shop
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Binglan usually made noodles for everyone. The ones she made differed from the ones everyone usually ate, and they tasted unforgettable. The Su family had just learned that there were several ways to make noodles. There were knife-cut noodles, beef ramen, soup, and fried noodles.
“Oh, there are also soy sauce noodles. They’re delicious too.”
These things were easy to store and eat, making them useful for Su Binglan’s travel to the border. Su Binglan wanted to give the instant noodles to her husband.
Moreover, she felt Luo Jin’an and his subordinates had little to eat at the border, so she considered bringing these to them. Therefore, she placed some things she might need in her pocket dimension, just in case.
The Su family knew she was going to the Great Desolate Region and were worried about her, so they looked emotionless. Typically, everyone would be thrilled to know they could eat something new for dinner.
Even Lan Ruozhu helped the family on the heated brick platform. The Su family’s house was vast, and their platform took up plenty of space. Shen Qiuhua placed a table on the platform, and the family sat around it to make noodles, doing as Su Binglan instructed.
Su Binglan observed everyone’s expressions and said, “Please smile. I’m going to the border to open a business. Besides, you all know about my skills in martial arts. I’ll return home before you know it.
“There might be foods we don’t know about there, so I’ll bring them home and make them delicious for everyone.”
Su Binglan’s mood was also low because she was worried about Luo Jin’an. However, she chatted and smiled to brighten the atmosphere. “Besides, you’ll know how delicious instant and soy sauce noodles are after trying them.” “Little Sister, can we sell these things?” Su Wenwu asked. He thought his family could make these noodles in large quantities if they were easy to store.
Su Wenwu had become business-minded since he started running the hotpot restaurants. A business idea would always flash across his mind whenever he saw food.
Su Binglan was so focused on bringing these things to Luo Jin’an that she forgot she could mass-produce these noodles.
‘These noodles will be delicious and easy to store if we made them. They would undoubtedly be famous. Then we can indeed produce large quantities.
“We’ll open a noodle shop and make these when I return. We’ll open one next to the embroidery shop. Wenwu, tell Xueye to build another shop with the same layout as the embroidery shop.” Su Binglan had already bought that entire piece of land.
The area it occupied was vast, and she could build many more shops there. She initially intended to build a commercial street but still needed more factories.
“Don’t worry, Sister. I’ll always do my best for you.” Su Wenwu nodded. He had learned much from his sister, so he admired her most.
If not for his sister, he could not stay home, let alone manage the hotpot restaurants. Now, he could eat, dress, and even sleep well on a heated brick bed. He was content.
Since he had suffered outside of Su Teng Village in the past, he knew how precious his current life was.
“Little Sister, what can Yinyin and I do?” Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin had hired people to work at their haggis soup shop, then went to work at Su Binglan’s accessories store.
But since everyone went directly to the embroidery shop to buy items, the accessories store had become a mere decoration. The couple felt they had plenty of free time and wanted to do something. However, they knew it would only be interesting if they worked with Su Binglan.
Su Binglan pondered momentarily and said, “How about this? After Xueye completes the noodle shop, we’ll sell soy sauce noodles, instant noodles, and other snacks. Then you and Yinyin can help manage the shop. I can rest assured when you and Yinyin watch over the shop for me.”
Su Wenzhe became excited when he heard his sister’s words. “That’s perfect.
Then your sister-in-law and I will have something to do.”
Liu Yinyin was thrilled. She and her husband felt they were wasting time without anything to do. After all, everyone else in the family was busy. The couple wanted Su Binglan to give them something important to do.
They were excited to manage a noodle shop. They knew how big the noodle shop would be just by looking at the embroidery shop and winery.
Liu Yinyin smiled and said, “Binglan, we’re familiar with the bookkeeping methods you taught us. I usually go to the embroidery shop with Wenzhe and learn management methods from Aunt Ding. We’ll make you proud.”
Su Binglan felt more at ease letting her sister-in-law handle the noodle shop. She felt Liu Yinyiin was a fast learner and was willing to work hard.
“l feel assured whenever you do things, Sister-in-law.”
Su Wenzhe anxiously asked, “What about me, Little Sister?”
“You’re calm in doing things, too, but Yinyin is more flexible. I’m sure you two will work well together.”
‘It seems everyone in the family has their strengths. They’re diligent, and no one is lazy, which is great. Their days will only improve if they work together.’
Su Binglan believed her family could do many things. She had limited thoughts about this part of Teng He town but felt a greater sense of responsibility after learning she was Lan Ruobing and reuniting with Lan
Ruozhu.
She knew she still had many things to do to make the country prosperous. She also wanted her brother’s army to be rich with food and strengthen the military. However, she had to bring Luo Jin’an home before doing these things without worry.
Su Wenzhe was incredibly happy when his sister praised him.
Su Binglan took a big bowl and put the noodles in it before adding homemade seasoning. Immediately after, she poured hot water into it and let it simmer for a few minutes.
Shen Qiuhua asked curiously, “Binglan, can we eat the noodles after boiling them?”
Su Binglan nodded and explained, “Yes, Mother. You can store these noodles for a long time. You can also take them out and boil them whenever you get hungry.
Su Wenwu sniffed the fragrance, saying, “It smells so good. But the aroma is different from other foods.’
Su Fengmao nodded. “It sure is fragrant. I didn’t expect noodles to have such an aroma after merely boiling them.”
“The seasoning is what makes the noodles smell and taste good. The taste will improve if you add sauce and seasoning. You can also add a poached egg to make it more enjoyable..”
