When it was almost time for dinner, people came to eat one after another.
You can smell the aroma as soon as you come in.
"Shopkeeper, what do you cook? What is so fragrant?"
The person eating was Li Zhaopeng, the son of Yuan Li's maternal family, and several classmates who had just returned from school in the county.
"Li Juren, long time no see, you have time to come back today?"
"Shopkeeper Liu, you're so polite. What are you talking about that smells so good? My mouth is watering."
"This... is a new dish that our restaurant is testing, I don't know what it is yet..."
"It's so fragrant, it's definitely good. It'll be ready soon, and I'll take it when it's served! I'll just invite a few classmates to taste it together."
"Okay, just wait."
Jiang Yuan almost cooked it, filled a small bowl, and gave it to Shopkeeper Liu who was waiting outside.
The chicken soup is thick white and has a sweet fragrance, which makes people's index fingers tickle just by smelling it.
Shopkeeper Liu tasted it carefully, his eyes brightened slightly and his body shook unconsciously.
He was full of confidence. Was it that all these years of opening a restaurant were in vain?
Why is it so delicious?
Then he gave the small bowl to the chef.
"The chicken is fragrant but not spicy, and the soup is fresh and refreshing... What is added?"
The cook wasn't sure.
Jiang Yuan only smiled slightly and said nothing.
Shopkeeper Liu immediately said, "Miss Jiang, how much do you plan to sell?"
"How much do you want to give me, the shopkeeper?"
"Twenty taels."
Jiang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Twenty-five taels."
"Of course it's okay, but this recipe..."
"Don't worry, it's just for you."
"make a deal."
Shopkeeper Liu was very happy.
Jiang Yuan is also very satisfied. After all, this recipe is not difficult. If he is selfish, he can make it by himself.
Jiang Yuan wrote the recipe for coconut black chicken soup.
"You can make a stew for me first, and the money will be deducted directly from the twenty-five taels. I will take it back in the afternoon."
"Miss Jiang is too polite. I'll stew it for a while and give it to you directly. How can I charge you for it?"
"Thank you so much, shopkeeper Liu, but I need to add these herbs to the soup."
Jiang Yuan gave shopkeeper Liu some Codonopsis pilosula and Atractylodes macrocephala bought at the drug store.
"Medicine?"
Add medicinal ingredients to food?
"My family members are weak and cannot take heavy medicines, so I can only take care of them in a roundabout way. I'm afraid I will have to trouble Shopkeeper Liu a lot in the future."
Jiang Yuan wanted to nurse Fu Jiu back into health, so cooking in the Jiang family's kitchen was basically out of the question.
Unless we separate.
So she planned to cook it in the restaurant every day and then take it back.
"Wherever, Miss Jiang, if you need anything, just come."
"I've also written down a dipping sauce. The shopkeeper will take a look at it and give it to you as well."
Jiang Yuan originally wanted to sell the dipping sauce made from kumquats and various seasonings.
However, the shopkeeper is very generous.
The two of them would collaborate in the future, so I gave it to him as a gift.
Jiang Yuan had something else to do, so he left first.
Shopkeeper Liu's eyes brightened slightly after eating the dipping sauce. It was indeed a good thing.
"This Jiang family girl, it's not like the rumors..."
She actually bought a collaboration with him using three recipes.
That chicken soup contains medicinal materials, so it should be a dietary supplement.
Food supplements such as food supplements were also available in the Western Song Dynasty, but they were very rare because there were many foods and medicinal herbs that were incompatible with each other.
Those who know medicine don’t know how to cook, and those who cook don’t know medicine, so almost no one studies it.
Jiang Yuan directly gave him a recipe for food supplement.

In the lobby of Hongyun Building.
"Brother, dad asked me to tell you that if you want to go back, just go to the butcher shop, we can wait for you."
Jiang Yuexiu stood next to Jiang Dahai with a shy look on her face.
His eyes drifted towards Li Zhaopeng across the river and the sea.
