Elder Lin's wife boiled a large pot of water, poured all eight packets of instant noodles into the pot, and peeled some potatoes according to the number of people they had.

Elder Lin's wife muttered unhappily, "It's eight copper coins for a bowl of noodles, but there's not even a piece of meat."

Elder Lin stared straight at the pot. "They said that the meat has been mixed into the ingredient pack. If there's no meat, how can this soup be so fragrant?'

The rich fragrance of noodles kept entering Elder Lin's wife's nostrils. She still couldn't help but mutter, "It's fragrant, but it's too expensive."

Five bowls costing 140 copper coins would allow them to buy several catties of brown rice.

Under everyone's expectant gazes, the instant noodles were finally cooked. Elder Lin personally scooped a bowl of instant noodles for himself. Without waiting for everyone, he started sucking.

His eyes lit up. He didn't have time to exclaim at how fragrant the noodles were. He took another big bite.

From the old man's expression, one could tell that this noodles must be very delicious.

Everyone took their own bowls of noodles and took a bite. Lin Lei said in disbelief, "Father, it's delicious!"

When he didn't get a response, he looked up and saw that everyone was too busy sucking on their noodles to talk to him.

As for the other migrants around them, they were gnawing on the cold rations distributed by the government, their eyes filled with envy.

If only they could have a bowl of steaming instant noodles too.

Unknowingly, these people engraved the words "instant noodles" in their minds and swore that they would eat until they vomited when they had money.

Elder Lin ate two big bowls in one go and instructed, "Old lady, add more water and some dry noodles. It's a pity to waste the bowl of instant noodles that cost eight copper coins per bowl like this. '

Elder Lin's wife had experienced the taste of instant noodles and did not object. She added another spoonful of water and a few handfuls of dried noodles.

There was not much soup left in the pot to begin with. After adding water, dry noodles were added instead of the instant noodles. The fragrance was greatly reduced, and the noodles were not chewy. The soup taste was also much more bland.

Elder Lin couldn't help but complain, "You added too much water!"

Elder Lin's wife said resentfully, "If I don't add in more water, how can I cook the noodles?"

Elder Lin was speechless. He looked at the instant noodles stall again. He had eaten instant noodles that day and did not know when he could eat them again.

With a sigh, he finished the bland soup and closed his eyes to savor it.

Not only were there ordinary migrants going to the Southern Frontier, but there were also caravans that were trying to occupy the Southern Frontier's market like Yu Suisheng.

The caravan smelled a tantalizing fragrance from afar.

This smell made Zhu Qi, who had eaten all kinds of delicacies before, curious about what kind of food it was.

Zhu Qi brought the caravan to the instant noodles stall. When he saw so many people carrying simple bowls of noodles and eating them, he was even more puzzled. How could an ordinary-looking bowl of noodles smell so good?
