Chapter 144 Returning to [Fairyland], the Milk Tea Shop Has Been Upgraded?
Soon, we arrived at the market located near Qianfeng Wharf.
After getting off her mount, Bai Mengran shook her legs; they were a little numb from sitting for so long.
The market here seems to be mostly for early morning business, and by noon, nearly half of the stalls were already empty, presumably because they had closed up shop after selling out their early morning goods.
Near the pier, this market offers a wide variety of seafood, and you can buy the freshest seafood here every morning if you go early.
At noon now, only a few stalls selling dried seafood are still open.
In addition, some food stalls selling pancakes, dried food, fruit stalls, and general merchandise stalls also operate as usual during the day.
Bai Mengran passed by a fruit stall and saw that they were selling lychees. They looked quite fresh, so she went up and asked about them.
The shopkeeper said these were fresh goods that had just arrived by sea this morning, so they were very fresh.
The gluttonous girl, seeing this rare treat, naturally had to try it. Although it was a bit pricey, she still bought half a pound to satisfy her craving. She couldn't let herself suffer.
Bai Mengran also inquired with the fruit stall owner about how to rent a stall at the market.
Upon learning that an official was in charge of this market, she inquired about the directions and prepared to find that official.
Bai Mengran casually took a lychee out of the bamboo tube, peeled off the outer shell, and put it in her mouth.
Although ancient lychees were not as big or sweet as modern ones, they were still sweet and juicy, with a natural lychee flavor, and were delicious.
Not satisfied with the food, Bai Mengran found a stone bench to sit on and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, ordered a bowl of "freshly made" turkey noodles in the back. When it arrived, it was already soaked and mixed, ready to eat.
During the food competition, she smelled the aroma of hundreds of buckets of instant noodles. In fact, she was already irresistibly tempted, but she pretended to be calm and put on a brave face in order to maintain her image.
It was almost lunchtime, and she wouldn't be able to return to [Fairyland] anytime soon, so she decided to have lunch there.
Sitting here, you can see the sea behind the pier not far away, so her seat while eating noodles can be considered a sea view spot.
Without a table, she had to hold the bowl of noodles in her hands. The sight of the turkey noodles in front of her made her mouth water.
Its bright red color is enticing, and the golden cheese coating the noodles makes it even more tempting.
Bai Mengran picked up a clump of noodles, rolled it up slightly, and couldn't wait to put it in her mouth.
Indeed, this spicy chicken noodle soup has an extremely rich texture. The noodles themselves are chewy and smooth yet resilient. With one bite, you can feel its just-right firmness, neither too soft nor too hard.
What's even more amazing is that every noodle is evenly coated with enough of the unique sauce, which is the soul and essence of the whole bowl of spicy chicken noodles.
The sauce has distinct layers of flavor. It has a slightly sweet taste at first, followed by a spiciness that rises slowly, like a flame dancing on the tongue. However, it is spicy but not harsh, instead bringing out a unique and mellow aroma.
As she chewed, Bai Mengran could clearly feel the perfect fusion between the noodles and the sauce. The spicy and sweet flavors danced repeatedly in her mouth, making her unable to stop eating.
Meanwhile, the seaweed flakes and sesame seeds add to the richness of the flavor, allowing you to taste different flavors with every bite.
After finishing a bowl of spicy chicken noodles, Bai Mengran felt both spicy and exhilarated, with the aftertaste lingering in her mouth. The unique spiciness and sweetness of the spicy chicken noodles lingered for a long time.
Adding juicy lychees at this point would make it even more amazing.
Against the backdrop of the spiciness, the lychee tasted especially sweet and refreshing, bringing her simple seaside meal to a perfect close.
After finishing all the lychees she bought in one go and calling the system to help collect the trash, Bai Mengran embarked on her search for a shop again.
After successfully finding the official in charge and explaining the situation, Bai Mengran selected a small shop that could operate all day and thus opened a branch of the instant noodle shop in Qianfeng Town.
Due to the unique geographical environment of the dock area, many high-ranking officials and dignitaries have emerged in this vicinity.
Setting up a shop here might not only provide a living as a dockworker, but also bring unexpected opportunities...
Bai Mengran boasted that she had already secured three instant noodle branches in three towns, and that she was quite efficient.
In just half a day, there was both a competition and a shop rental...
As for the remaining two branches, she already had a plan in mind: one would be placed in the Taoyuan Town market as a fixed stall, and the other would be placed inside the [Fairyland].
After finalizing the locations for all five instant noodle branches, all that's left is to launch the service with a single click tonight.
So Bai Mengran set off on her journey home, her mount soaring into the sky, returning to the Fairyland.
She lay there with her eyes closed the whole way, her mind racing with thoughts.
She's received so many rewards lately that she needs to sort them out properly when she gets back; some of them are practically rusted away before she's even had a chance to use them...
Although some rewards could be used immediately with a single click, Bai Mengran thought otherwise. In her mind, personally participating was more important than making money!
Since time travel is a rare and precious experience, we should cherish and appreciate the entire process.
She cherishes every moment of witnessing her achievements and wants to personally witness and remember every surprise and awe-inspiring experience; these processes are the most precious gifts of her journey…
After being away for half a day, when Bai Mengran returned to the [Fairyland], she suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, as if she had come home.
Looking at the interior of the [Fairyland], which was completely different from what it had been a few days ago, and thinking that she had created it step by step, a sense of accomplishment welled up inside her.
Looking at the ancients today, their faces beaming with joy as they stroll between shops, finding contentment and happiness in a delicious meal, Bai Mengran could empathize with them.
As the "fairyland" before her eyes improved more and more, a warm feeling welled up in Bai Mengran's heart.
That's great, everything is slowly getting better~
She decided not to go back to the villa, but instead planned to open the "Unforgettable Bakery" first.
Passing by the milk tea shop and seeing its newly upgraded appearance, Bai Mengran realized, "Oh right, the milk tea shop was upgraded to level two last night!"
At this moment, among the group of sisters sitting around drinking milk tea on the second floor of the milk tea shop, Kong Nishang, with her sharp eyes, was the first to spot Bai Mengran standing below.
She waved excitedly toward the window, only then remembering that she was upstairs and Sister Bai couldn't see her.
She ran towards the giant milk tea cup that automatically went up and down, got inside, and rode it down to the first floor.
Earlier today, when she arrived at [Wonderland], she immediately noticed that her favorite milk tea shop had changed drastically!
This thrilled Kong Nishang so much that she ran all the way to the milk tea shop.
Looking at the newly renovated two-story milk tea shop, Kong Nishang's mouth involuntarily formed an oval shape. "Wow! It's so beautiful~"
The original milk tea shop has been enlarged, and the storefront is now divided into sections displaying the different series of drinks currently sold, making it easy for customers to see as they pass by.
However, Kong Nishang was immediately stunned, a big question mark appearing above her head...
She could clearly see empty seats on the second floor, which should be for people to sit and have a drink, but she couldn't see any stairs. How could she get upstairs?
