My hotel is full of emperors throughout history.

"Yes, yes, yes! It's what I ordered. Please wait a moment, sir, I'll arrange for someone to unload it right away."

"Okay, I'll go grab a bite to eat then."

Chen Mo watched the driver leave before turning to look at the crowd.

"Brother Biao, stop uninstalling those first, uninstall this one!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Biao looked at the truck in front of him, which was much taller than himself, and then at Chen Mo, and fell into deep thought.

Li Shimin walked up to the truck, looked at the enormous steel structure, and gently stroked it with a look of amazement.

Liu Che also walked to his side.

The two stood with their hands behind their backs, looking up at the steel behemoth before them.

The sunlight shone on the front of the car, reflecting a cold and unfamiliar luster.

The massive tire treads were deeply etched, and a little dusty, which only accentuated their rugged power.

Liu Che looked at the truck and liked it more and more.

If we could get this thing to the Han Dynasty, we wouldn't even need bows and arrows to fight the Xiongnu.

The Xiongnu people did not have sturdy city walls; they lived entirely in tents on the grasslands!

Just drive and run them over!

In one word—invincible!!!

Little Sizi also walked to the front of the truck.

The little girl couldn't contain her curiosity any longer.

Although being led by Li Lizhi, he was like a restless kitten, tiptoeing and trying hard to see more clearly.

As soon as her sister loosened her grip a little, she darted to the front, just a few steps away from the big truck.

She tilted her little head back, her mouth opened into a round "O" shape, and her big eyes were full of pure amazement and doubt.

"Wow...what a huge iron ox!"

She cautiously moved a little closer, extending her little finger as if to touch the huge tire, then withdrew it in fear.

"Sister, what does it eat? Does it eat iron?"

Little Sizi asked, wrinkling his little nose.

Then, she ran to the front of the car and stood on tiptoe to try to see inside the driver's seat, but it was too high for her to see clearly.

"Do gods live inside? Are gods herding this giant ox?"

Li Lizhi quickly pulled her back to her side and whispered instructions.

"Rhinoceros, don't come near, be careful of danger."

Although she said that, she kept looking at the truck, her eyes filled with shock.

As for Zhu Biao, Fusu, Liu Ju, and others, they were shocked and began moving the goods.

Seeing this, Huo Qubing also went to help.

They are indeed young people with excellent physical fitness.

Before long, the goods were almost all moved.

"Manager Chen, what are these instant noodles and cola?"

Liu Che opened a box and couldn't help but ask.

"Food and drink."

Chen Moqing counted the goods without turning his head.

"Oh~!"

Liu Che responded with an "Oh".

He stared at the instant noodles in his hand for a moment, then turned his gaze to Li Shimin.

"Li...Old Li, since this is for military supplies, I'd like to try it out first. It shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin recalled Liu Che's actions and chuckled.

"Of course, there's no problem. How could I dare disobey Emperor Wu of Han's request?"

As he spoke, Li Shimin hesitated again.

"But this is military supplies, and there are specific numbers and records."

He held up one finger.

"Here's what we'll do: one bag of flour, one tael of silver. And one cup of cola, also one tael."

"As for this barrelled product, I'll take a small loss and charge you two taels of silver, how about that?"

"What?!"

Liu Che thought he had misheard, and his eyes widened instantly.

"Li Shimin! Are you trying to rob me?!"

"A bag of flour costs one tael of silver? A cup of water costs one tael of silver?! Do you take me for a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered?!"

"This is much faster than robbing money."

Li Shimin muttered to himself.

Liu Che then turned his head to look at Chen Mo.

"Manager Chen! How much is this instant noodle and cola actually worth? That scoundrel Li dares to cheat me out of a tael of silver!"

Chen Mo looked at the two of them like this and spoke up.

"Instant noodles usually retail for three yuan."

"If you buy in bulk like Lao Li, there are discounts. After the discount, it's about 1.5 yuan per bag. Coke is about the same, with a wholesale price of a little over 1 yuan per bottle."

"How much...how much?! Three...copper coins?! Buying in bulk only...one or two copper coins?!"

Liu Che's voice suddenly changed tone.

He stared at the instant noodles in his hand, then at the cola, and was completely dumbfounded.

But soon, he turned his head and looked at Li Shimin with a face full of resentment.

"Wow!!! You're so heartless!!!"

"You're offering me a tael of silver for this bag of stuff that costs three yuan?!"

"Look at you, always in such a hurry!"

"Isn't it because I think it's inappropriate for you, as the emperor, to eat such cheap food?"

Li Shimin smiled and reached out to pat Liu Che on the shoulder.

But under Liu Che's murderous gaze, he withdrew his hand.

"Just kidding, just kidding, why take it seriously? It's on you, eat whatever you want!"

"That's more like it!"

Liu Che snorted coldly and turned his gaze to Huo Qubing and Liu Ju.

"Both of you, eat as much as you want!!! Eat as much as you can!!!"

Liu Che pointed at Li Shimin.

"Anyway, he's paying!!!"

Huo Qubing and Liu Ju exchanged a glance and nodded.

Little Sizi gets excited at the mention of food and runs up to Chen Mo, acting all cute.

"I want some too! I want some too! Little slub, Sizi wants to try this delicious bucket that was brought in by a big truckload!"

Chen Mo hesitated for a moment, but seeing Si Zi's expectant look, he nodded.

After signing the delivery receipt, he and Zhu Biao moved the instant noodles to the backyard and then opened a case of bucket noodles.

"Come on, let me teach you how to do it."

Chen Mo tore open the instant noodle cup, then tore open the seasoning packets one by one and poured them in. He picked up the thermos, poured in hot water, and then covered it with something.

"That's it???"

Liu Che looked at Chen Mo, who was sitting still, with a surprised expression.

"Yes! Then you can eat it after a few minutes."

"..."

Liu Che remained silent.

This... no wonder it's called instant noodles, it really is convenient!

but……

A glint of light flashed in Liu Che's eyes.

Wouldn't that make it more suitable as military rations?

I wonder how it tastes!

Following Chen Mo's example, everyone tore open their instant noodles and poured in the seasoning packets.

"Sizi wants this!"

Little Sizi pointed at the braised beef noodles with a longing look on his face.

"Sizi wants to eat meat!!! Big meat!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo gave an awkward smile and replaced Xiao Sizi's meal with a fresh shrimp and fish dish.

Then, seeing that everyone was waiting for instant noodles, he hesitated for a moment, went to the backyard, grabbed a case of cola, and went into the kitchen.

A short while later, he came out carrying several cups of bubbling black water.

"Is this the cola?"

Liu Che looked at the black water with disgust.

"Why does he look so strange!"

"It's strange, but it tastes really good!"

Chen Mo chuckled and downed his cola in one gulp in front of everyone.

"Cool!"

Huo Qubing, who had just arrived, cautiously picked up the cup, observing the black liquid that was constantly bubbling and the ice cubes that were floating and sinking. He first carefully sniffed it before taking a sip.

"!!!"

The intense, pungent taste and the cool sweetness instantly overwhelmed his taste buds.

The peculiar feeling of comfort momentarily stunned him.

Huo Qubing couldn't help but take another big gulp, feeling the coolness rush straight into his stomach.

"This substance... is quite peculiar. At first sip, it feels like thorns on your back, but then it's sweet, cool, and refreshing, truly invigorating!"

"And... there's ice inside?"

Huo Qubing murmured, his face filled with disbelief.

Upon hearing this, Liu Che also took a sip. He coughed twice as soon as it entered his mouth, but then he also felt the unique pleasure.

Zhu Biao, Fusu, Liu Ju, and Li Chengqian also tried it, and their reactions varied, but they were all deeply impressed by the taste of the iced cola.

Xiao Sizi received a small half-cup that Chen Mo had specially prepared.

She sipped it slowly, wrinkling her nose from the bubbles, yet reluctant to give up the sweet coolness; she looked incredibly cute.

At this point, it was time to make the instant noodles.

Chen Mo lifted the paper lid, and a rich steam mixed with the aroma of sauce immediately filled the air.

"Wow! This smells pretty good!"

Liu Che murmured.

He picked up his own fork, imitated Li Shimin by stirring the bread, and then rolled some up and put it in his mouth.

"Cough cough!!"

Almost instantly, Liu Che was choked by the spiciness and strong aroma that hit him right in the head.

He picked up the Coke next to him and took a big gulp, his eyes gleaming with an amazing light.

"Cool!!!"

"That's powerful! This spiciness... is so satisfying! It's like a fire burning from my throat straight into my stomach, so exhilarating! Burp~"

Liu Che let out a burp, but didn't pay it any mind, and looked at Liu Ju and Huo Qubing.

"Compared to the bland dishes in the palace, this is much more to my liking! Qubing! Ju'er! Quickly, try it!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Qubing and Liu Ju no longer hesitated and began to eat.

Huo Qubing was a young man after all, and he was taken aback by the spiciness when he first tasted it, but he quickly started eating it in big bites, which was obviously very much to his liking.

Liu Ju's face turned bright red from the spiciness, and he kept inhaling, but his eyes were sparkling, clearly finding it novel and delicious.

Zhu Biao also ate the spicy flavor and was also quite spicy, but he couldn't help but keep eating while spitting out spicy food, and asked curiously.

"What are the ingredients for this intense flavor? How can it be so appetizing?"

"Technology and ruthless work, that's it!"

"Technology and grueling work?"

Zhu Biao remained silent.

He can understand the former, but what does the latter mean?

Fusu and Li Chengqian were relatively more refined, but they still ate until they were sweating and kept marveling at the food.

Little Sizi was young, but he ate very happily, his eyes curving into crescents.

"Sister, these noodles are delicious! They taste like shrimp!"

Li Lizhi was eating chicken soup noodles when she was shocked by the taste of the chicken soup.

She originally chose the pickled cabbage and beef noodles, but for some reason Chen Mo changed them for her after seeing them.

For a moment, the only sounds in the backyard were the slurping of noodles, the occasional gasp from the spiciness, and the satisfied sighs.
