The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

Chapter 1031 We've struck it rich this time!

"These noodles are cooked, they're delicious!" Brian exclaimed excitedly.

"Yes, yes! It's delicious!"

"It's so delicious!" The others echoed, their faces full of surprise.

Prince Joliv, hearing everyone's comments, picked up a small amount and tasted it. He was astonished by what he tasted; his eyes lit up instantly, and he immediately turned to Henry, saying, "Henry, how much is a packet of silver? Tell the innkeeper to give us a few more packets; we'll try soaking them in water when we get back to the inn!"

“Your Highness, this instant noodles costs one tael of silver per packet,” Henry replied.

"Your Highness, that's wonderful!" Charles quickly chimed in. "Your Highness, if it's really delicious and convenient, we can bring more on board. This instant noodle isn't expensive at all, only a tael of silver—it's a great deal!"

If Ouyang Yunyao heard this, she would be very puzzled. Were things really that expensive on the Luo Ba Continent? A pound of rice here only cost a few coins. Indeed, rare items on the Luo Ba Continent were quite expensive; instant noodles would certainly be considered a very rare commodity there.

The shopkeeper, Lu Jinxiu, was quick-witted. Seeing how interested these blond men were in instant noodles, she winked and immediately stepped forward with a smile, saying:

"Gentlemen, if you like this kind of easy-to-carry food, our shop also has compressed biscuits, chocolate and chicken wings, which are very convenient to carry on the road."

Henry was a little confused. So many items, and even chocolate? He didn't have time to ponder his questions and quickly translated Lu Jinxiu's words to his companions. The blond men immediately became interested and started chattering amongst themselves.

They chattered amongst themselves, one after the other, "Henry, are you sure you heard me right? They have chocolate here too? Is it the same as what we have back home?"

"Henry, quickly have the shopkeeper bring it over for us to see!"

"Yes, yes, and what about those compressed biscuits? What's that new and exciting thing? Are they biscuits?"

After listening to their discussion, Jolief paused and instructed Henry, "Henry, have the shopkeeper show us the chocolate and compressed biscuits."

When Lu Jinxiu brought over several exquisite small wooden boxes and placed them in front of them, the group was immediately dumbfounded. They stared at the two long, rectangular wooden boxes, each about the length of a palm, and the two square wooden boxes, each about the width of a palm.

What surprised them even more was that the wooden boxes were covered with beautiful drawings. They looked at each other, then touched the drawings; they were very smooth.

They were all quite surprised, not caring what was inside the box, and stared at the drawing paper pasted on it with curiosity. They then started chattering amongst themselves again.

“Your Highness, look, the painting and colors seem to be printed on the paper,” Brian said first.

One of the attendants said, “Lord Ryan, you’re right. The painting seems to have been printed on it like a book. But how were the colors printed on? They’re so vibrant and bright.”

Jolie also frowned. Could it be that the Yuzhou continent was really much more advanced than their continent? He suppressed his thoughts and said to Henry, "Henry, take a look at what words are written here. Do you recognize them?"

“I know, I know!” Henry picked up a small box and read the words on it in Loba, “Pure chocolate chips.”

After reading it aloud, he himself became puzzled and looked up at Lu Jinxiu, asking, "Shopkeeper Lu, what does 'pure chocolate' mean? And is it in slices?"

The other blond men also stared at Henry after he finished reading, waiting for him to explain further.

Lu Jinxiu smiled and nodded, patiently explaining, "That's right, this box contains pure chocolate, and it's all in slices." She paused and continued, "Pure chocolate is plain chocolate without any added fruit, milk, or other flavors."

She then instructed her assistant, Xiangzi, "Help them open that box and show it to them."

After giving her instructions, she picked up another long, narrow wooden box and opened it. She placed both boxes on the counter in front of them, but they hadn't yet seen what was inside, as they were still covered with a thin sheet of oil paper.

Xiangzi took a food tong and lifted the oil paper, revealing smooth, flat chocolate chips in front of them.

They could see clearly now that each box contained eight chocolate chips of the same size, and they were indeed in chip form. One box contained pure chocolate chips, as they had said, while the other six were small, uniform brown squares.

At this moment, Lu Jinxiu pointed to another box and told them, "This box is called Colorful Chocolate Chips. One chip is plain, this white one is milk flavored, this pink one is strawberry flavored, this yellow one is durian flavored, and this green one..."

Lu Jinxiu added, "Why don't you all try some?"

In fact, these chocolates were just two ordinary items among the chocolates on the shelves in Ouyang Yunyao's space. Her space warehouse had a wide variety of chocolates, including those with fillings and those coated with various nuts.

However, the variety of products she could photocopy was limited, so she only chose these two basic ones for now. The small wooden box, on the other hand, was produced on the estate by her second brother's arrangement, and the colored paper label on the box was designed by Ouyang Yunyao herself and printed in her space. The original chocolate packaging had long been completely torn apart by Gigi.

After hearing Lu Jinxiu's words, Henry immediately translated them for Jolie and the others. Without saying a word, they all picked up small pieces that the young waiter Xiangzi had just cut from the oiled paper and put them in their mouths to savor them.

"Wow! Delicious! So delicious!" The group exclaimed in unison, their eyes filled with amazement.

Brian slapped Henry on the shoulder and said impatiently, "Quickly ask the shopkeeper how much these chocolates cost?"

Henry nodded quickly, then looked at Lu Jinxiu and asked eagerly, "Manager Lu, how much...how much does this chocolate cost?"

“These wooden boxes are all twenty taels of silver a box,” Lu Jinxiu said, then pointed to two small square boxes next to her, “These two are chocolate beans, also twenty taels a box.”

Henry could hardly believe his ears. How could such fine goods on the continent be so cheap? He quickly pressed for an answer, afraid he had misheard: "Young shopkeeper, you're not lying to me, are you? It really is twenty taels of silver a box?"

A hint of displeasure flashed across Lu Jinxiu's face. This chocolate, though expensive, was quite rare! Suppressing her displeasure, she pointed to the price tag next to the chocolate and said calmly, "Sir, you jest. Our shop has clearly marked prices; you can see that from the sign over there."

Seeing this, Henry realized she had misunderstood and quickly waved his hand to explain, "Young shopkeeper, don't misunderstand! I don't think it's expensive, it's...it's too cheap! Too cheap!" He was almost incoherent as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinxiu's expression softened. "Hmm! That's more like it."

Henry was thrilled and immediately turned around to tell Joliffe and the others the price in Loba.

Upon hearing this, Joliffe exclaimed excitedly, "We're rich! We're rich! We've struck it rich this time!"
