In the beginning, Cheng Dagang could still enjoy some fresh dishes from those chefs.

But gradually, he found that the imperial chefs in the palace were too rigid in their cooking.

Many things are overly elaborate, not as naturally tasty as the bowl of wonton he eats from street vendors!

Therefore, Cheng Dagang dismissed the chefs at home.

He took Mrs. Bai around to find delicious food, and later on, he simply didn’t want the identity of the Great General!

Currently, Shuangshuang is the only one whose dishes he doesn’t find tiresome after trying so many.

This is enough to prove Mu Shuangshuang’s skills!

While Cheng Dagang was talking with Mrs. Bai, Mu Shuangshuang, Lu Yuanfeng, and Xing Beichen just arrived at the courtyard gate.

Cheng Dagang eagerly rushed up and directly asked Mu Shuangshuang, ”Girl, the stuff you made today tastes absolutely fantastic!

I ate one that didn’t have a shell, so how do you eat the ones with the shell, please teach me quickly!”

Mu Shuangshuang saw the attitude and spirit a true foodie should have on Cheng Dagang’s face.

”Elder Cheng, wait for a moment, I’ll wash my hands!”

Mu Shuangshuang smiled at Cheng Dagang and went into the kitchen, fetched a basin of clean water, washed her hands, and then came to the table.

She pulled out a bamboo skewer from a bunch that was on the table, and in front of Cheng Dagang, she removed the shell piece covering the snail.

Then she inserted the bamboo skewer into the snail meat and lightly stirred it.

With that, the snail meat inside the shell was scooped out.

When Mu Shuangshuang prepared the snails, she had removed the tails, so what was left inside was all clean, edible parts!

After watching Mu Shuangshuang’s actions, Cheng Dagang followed suit.

Soon, he was tasting his first piece of sucked snail meat.

Although the snails in the shell used the same ingredients as stir-fried snails, the taste was noticeably different.

Stir-fried snails emphasize timing and the chef’s cooking techniques.

As for the sucked snails, many seasonings are needed, like garlic, chili peppers, and sachets of five-spice, among others.

With just a piece of sucked snail meat, Cheng Dagang was already falling in love with the taste.

As he ate, saliva kept dripping out; with a few more huffs, he devoured some deshelled snail meat.

”Elder, anyway, I made a lot today, eat to your heart’s content!” Mu Shuangshuang said with a smile.

”Then let’s not wait, hurry up and eat, hurry up and eat...”

Cheng Dagang called for others while he focused on speeding up, burying his head to eat vigorously.

Yu Si Niang and Mu Dashan finished what they were doing and started eating dinner too.

After a meal, everyone ate to the point of sweating, but their hearts were extremely satisfied!

Seeing they were full, Mu Shuangshuang asked, ”How do you think this dish would do as a special dish at Chengfeng Restaurant?” Mu Shuangshuang asked.

”It would be excellent; I’ll be the first to support it!” Cheng Dagang responded politely.

”Me too, this stuff can’t even be found in the Capital!” Xing Beichen agreed.

Mu Shuangshuang looked at everyone else, and three little children gave her a thumbs up.

Yu Si Niang and Mu Dashan also nodded in agreement!

Finally, it was Lu Yuanfeng’s turn, but there was no need to guess his opinion!

”Shuangshuang, I won’t say anymore that you’re wasting money buying a bunch of useless chunks!

This thing might cause a craze across the entire Da Ning Dynasty; you better keep your recipe safe. Who knows, soon enough, many will come to buy your recipe from you!”

Xing Beichen remarked.

The others heard his words and laughed heartily along.

However, more importantly, they felt that there was some truth to what Xing Beichen said!

...

The next day, Mu Shuangshuang took a bucket of snails she had fed for three days to the town.

She had the restaurant staff help chop off the tail of the snails blanched in water with scissors.

As a new dish, Mu Shuangshuang also thought of a publicity method.

Every time she narrated stories, many people would come to the restaurant.

Some people, after listening to the stories, stayed to dine at the restaurant.

Today, she employed the same approach, having the staff declare she would host an additional storytelling session in the morning about ”Journey to the West”.

As soon as this was said, people around started promoting Mu Shuangshuang.

Originally, after she returned, Chengfeng Restaurant’s business had already improved.

Now it was even fuller because of the storytelling, attracting a packed audience at Chengfeng Restaurant.

But these weren’t dinner hours, so it didn’t count for much yet!

Once the restaurant was filled to capacity, Mu Shuangshuang stood on the stage and announced to everyone, ”Today I will have some time to continue telling stories to everyone.”

Once Mu Shuangshuang finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted in the restaurant hall.

Meanwhile, upon hearing the news, Xia Guagua instructed Mr. Zhao, a storyteller she invited, to narrate from the stand.

Xia Guagua had already done the promotions, and many around knew about this event.

But when Mr. Zhao stood on stage waiting for the audience to support him, things turned out unexpectedly.

All the guests went to Chengfeng Restaurant, as no one wanted to hear Mr. Zhao’s love stories.

Even the men hired by Head Chef Ma Jun to boost the crowd quietly sneaked away.

They were all eager to listen to the female owner of Chengfeng Restaurant narrate stories!

”Useless, worthless!”

Xia Guagua stood at the door of her restaurant, watching the bustling opposite side.

Then looking at her own restaurant, which was cold and desolate.

Ma Jun said, ”Owner, don’t be angry, it’s not dinner time yet. When the dinner rush arrives, everyone will come over immediately!”

”Hmph, that’s what you said. If no one comes, you shouldn’t expect to keep your steward position!” Xia Guagua rebuked mercilessly.

Ma Jun kept laughing, wearing a cheerful face while internally cursing Xia Guagua’s ancestors!

”You’re right; I’ll take responsibility!”

”But look at him; he hasn’t attracted a single guest, is this the best storyteller you invited?” Xia Guagua directed her criticism at Mr. Zhao.

The person on stage, already uncomfortable due to the lack of audience, felt even more embarrassed after Xia Guagua’s remarks!

Mr. Zhao originally wanted to quit, but Ma Jun stepped up.

”Owner, this isn’t Mr. Zhao’s fault; it’s just that girl’s story is better than Mr. Zhao’s. People who heard the first part of her story are compelled to hear the rest of it!

If Mr. Zhao had started storytelling here first, everyone in Qingshan Town would surely want to hear Mr. Zhao’s storytelling. If that happened, that brat wouldn’t have anything to do with it!

I think it’s better to give Mr. Zhao more time. Let him narrate more often. When people see storytelling happening here, they will follow and come in!”

Due to Ma Jun’s words, Mr. Zhao became a laughingstock in the storytelling community.

Unlike good deeds, bad news spreads quickly, and he became the only storyteller who narrated to an empty audience!
