Shocking! The entire court was drooling with envy because of me.

Wang Chunhua was stunned.

No, she's been making wontons for so many years, how come she has so many problems??

"...Wontons, they're all the same, and my wontons are made with the finest ingredients..."

Shen Qing looked up: "Yes, a bowl of ordinary wontons won't be remembered, and naturally there won't be many repeat customers."

In such a remote location, repeat customers are the most important.

If the taste is bland and unremarkable, customers will naturally choose a convenient and lively place; there is no need for them to travel a long distance to taste it.

After all, this kind of wonton is found everywhere else.

For a shop located in a remote area, the lack of repeat customers is fatal.

Wang Chunhua suddenly had a realization.

No wonder, only people on this street come to eat her wontons.

Unfortunately, this street was deserted, with hardly any people.

People from other streets have no reason to make a special trip to this street just for a bowl of ordinary wontons.

As a result, the business became increasingly bleak, and it was only kept afloat by the few people around it each day.

"My wonton-making skills were passed down from my father. He made wontons his whole life. When he took over that shop, this street wasn't this deserted. Alas, it's just fate playing tricks on us."

Wang Chunhua sighed, her eyes gazing into the distance, lost in thought.

The next moment, Shen Qing's voice rang out again:

"You can use chicken bones instead of pork bones for the soup. The cost is about the same, but the soup will be fresher and more vibrant."

Suddenly, Wang Chunhua was startled.

Is this little girl... teaching her how to make wontons?

Good heavens! Recipes and techniques are usually kept secret, and this young girl actually...

Wang Chunhua was shocked and listened to Shen Qing's words even more attentively:

"After mincing the meat, add the seasonings and stir in one direction while adding water. Each time, wait until the meat has absorbed the water before adding more water, until the minced meat becomes sticky, elastic, and can be formed into a ball."

"The dough should be mixed with warm water and allowed to rest for an hour to allow the gluten to fully develop before rolling it into a thin sheet that is thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges."

"As for the ingredients, besides chopped green onions, you can also add a little bit of cilantro, dried shrimp, and seaweed to enhance the aroma and flavor."

"As for the price of the wontons, you can sell them for five coins."

Shen Qing had already calculated in his mind that this improvement only increased the cost of some coriander, dried shrimp, and seaweed. This cost was not high, and each bowl of wontons would cost one more coin, which would increase the profit.

Of course, this improved method was the low-cost method that she came up with that was most suitable for Wang Chunhua.

If she were making wontons, of course she wouldn't use these.

The more Wang Chunhua listened, the brighter her eyes became; she couldn't wait to run off and try out Shen Qing's method.

"Miss, I've remembered everything, but I'm so grateful for your help. I don't know how to thank you enough. In all these years, this is the first time I've ever heard of wontons being made this way." Wang Chunhua's eyes were a little moist.

Her father was an ordinary person who relied solely on high-quality ingredients when making food. He was bold and decisive in rolling out the dough and filling the fillings, without being too particular.

Therefore, the skill was passed down to her, and she became the same.

She thought her shop wouldn't last long, but unexpectedly she met a benefactor.

Shen Qing smiled and said, "I didn't help you for nothing. If you really want to thank me, just treat me to a few more bowls of wontons."

Aunt Wang is a very kind person; she had kindly reminded her not to open a shop here before.

Now that she has a way to improve Aunt Wang's wontons, she should naturally lend a hand.

If her neighbor is doing well, her shop will also be doing better.

Otherwise, with her business booming while the neighbor's is deserted, sooner or later people will feel jealous.

Therefore, in helping Granny Wang, she was also helping herself.

"Okay, okay, okay, from now on, come to my shop and you can have as many wontons as you want!!"

Wang Chunhua was overjoyed. Her face was full of wrinkles from smiling, and she was beaming with happiness, making it clear to everyone that she had encountered something incredibly wonderful.

After exchanging a few more cheerful words, she hurriedly returned to the wonton shop, ready to give it her all and try Shen Qing's method.

After cleaning up the shop, Shen Qing went home, brewed a pot of tea, and leisurely opened the system while sipping the tea.

[Ding—Congratulations, host, on completing your first day of operation. The purchase limit for Four Beauties Soup will be increased to 400 servings tomorrow.]

She acted quickly, purchasing ingredients for four hundred portions of Four Beauties Soup.

Based on today's customer traffic, even 400 servings wouldn't be enough to sell.

However, it seems that the system's procurement limit can only be increased by two hundred at a time.

It was still early today, so she took Shen's mother out to have her eyes checked again. The same thing was said before: in any case, only the Ghost Doctor could treat Shen's mother's eyes.

Now, Shen Qing has a clear idea in her mind: once she completes this task, she will receive a thousand taels of gold.

That's more than enough to get the Ghost Doctor to examine Shen's mother's eyes.

......

One night has passed, and a brand new day has begun.

As soon as Yan Xian woke up, he began to miss the Four Delicacies Soup that he hadn't been able to taste the day before.

As the saying goes, what you can't have always seems more alluring. Some things, the more you haven't tried them, the more eager you are to give them a shot.

Yan Xian currently has this kind of mentality.

He especially smelled the aroma of the Four Beauties Soup, which was incredibly fragrant.

Early in the morning, after giving instructions at home, he went out alone and came to the usually deserted street.

At this moment, a long queue had already formed in front of Zhiweixuan, but the door was still closed, obviously it had not yet opened.

Shen Qing has many regular customers who know his rules and queue up very conscientiously.

Yan Xian was somewhat surprised; it was the first time he had ever seen such a self-aware customer, especially since the shop wasn't even open yet.

"These people... are going crazy for the Four Beauties Soup..." he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Then I thought about it again.

Didn't he arrive this early himself?

While I was thinking, a few more people lined up behind me.

Yan Xian dared not dawdle any longer and hurriedly followed at the back.

My expectations for the Four Delicacies Soup grew even higher, reaching their peak.

The doors of Zhiweixuan were only opened at Chenshi (7-9 AM).

Shen Qing smiled and announced, "Today we are serving Four Delicacies Soup, a total of four hundred servings."

"I want!"

"I want two!"

"I want one too!!!"

"..."

The diners all became excited, and Yan Xian even felt his heart race.

After waiting in line for quite a while, it was finally his turn.

"I want a serving of Four Delicacies Soup!" he said anxiously.

Shen Qing handed a white porcelain bowl to Yan Xian and said, "I apologize for yesterday. Please try it today."

She remembered Yan Xian; he was already gone when she got her turn yesterday.

Yan Xian swallowed hard and carefully picked up his own bowl of Four Beauties Soup.
