In the kitchen, under the expectant gaze of the crowd, Cao Xiangnan pulled out a baking tray. On the baking tray were mooncakes with golden skins. The freshly baked mooncakes exuded a fragrance. Looking at the finished mooncakes, he smiled.

He put the tray on the table, and the people standing nearby gathered around. "Bring a dustpan over." As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately brought the dustpan over. "Carefully put the mooncakes on the dustpan. It's still hot now. Let it cool down a little so everyone can taste it." Cao Xiangnan said.

The apprentice beside him carefully took the mooncakes from the baking tray and put them on the dustpan. He couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he smelled the smell.

Before I came to work at Yipinzhai, I was happy to have enough food to eat at home. I had never eaten anything delicious. When I was a child, my mother would make some small cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival. How could they compare with the round and plump moon cakes in front of me? I knew it was delicious as soon as I smelled it. Master Cao said that they could have a taste of it. He was full of expectations. It would be great if my mother and brothers could have a taste of it.

Several master chefs on the side nodded one after another, saying that this cake was good, and their words were full of praise. Now seeing the same things coming out of Master Cao's hands, they also went from not taking it seriously at the beginning to admiring it now.

If it were them, they would not guarantee that they would teach this craft to outsiders, but Master Cao taught them. Until now, they are all willing to stay in Yipinzhai. As long as Yipinzhai survives, they are willing to stay here for the rest of their lives. Only by staying here can they live up to Master Cao's cultivation and trust in them. At

this moment, Shopkeeper Fang, who heard the news outside, also came in. Everyone shouted "Shopkeeper" and made way for him.

"Is this the mooncake?" Shopkeeper Fang saw the finished cake. Young Master Cao called it "mooncake". This name sounded like a good omen. Seeing that each cake was much cuter than the cakes they made during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Yes, that's right. This one is filled with red bean, and there will be pumpkin, mung bean, five-nut, and egg yolk fillings later. These will be ready later." Cao Xiangnan also planned to make some fruit fillings later. He made these first and then did the rest one by one.

Cao Xiangnan didn't plan to reveal all the details at the beginning. After all, the mooncakes were ready, but the price had not been discussed with Fang the shopkeeper. He still trusted Fang the shopkeeper and knew he would not let him down.

"Okay, okay, this looks good, but I don't know how it tastes." Fang the shopkeeper clapped his hands, and the cute mooncakes in front of him looked like silver coins.

"It's guaranteed to be delicious." Cao Xiangnan made a promise. He had made mooncakes with his master before. Mooncakes are not difficult to make. The main reason is that they are still a new thing in this era. What's more, the mooncakes he made have been improved time and time again, so they look and taste good.

When the mooncakes cooled down a little, Cao Xiangnan took one and gave it to Fang the shopkeeper to taste. Seeing that Fang did not say anything after taking a bite, he asked, "How does it taste?"

"Good! Well, it's delicious. I haven't eaten such a cake before." Fang the shopkeeper nodded and gave a very good price.

"Come on, everyone, try it. If you find any problems, please let us know. We will improve it later." Cao Xiangnan smiled when he heard it. There were so many people around him, and he was not a stingy person. Everyone could have a taste of the new food in the kitchen.

Gan Weilin took a bite and almost cried with emotion. It was so delicious!

He had never eaten such a good cake. In the past, he would just look at the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Comparing the present life with the past life, he suddenly felt that he had been eating grass in the army all these years, and now he was eating food that people eat.

"I heard that the mooncakes are ready, so I came to take a look. Oh, everyone is eating, is there any for me?" Sun Ji heard that there was fresh food in the kitchen. He had nothing to do after finishing his work outside, so he walked in and saw that everyone was eating.

Gan Weiqi followed him in. As soon as he came in, he smelled the smell and saw his younger brother trying hard to stuff food into his mouth.

"Yes, yes, come on, if you are late you will have to wait for the next batch to come out." Cao Xiangnan tried a bite politely and thought it was good enough. There were several more kinds of mooncakes to come. If he ate one of each, he would not have to eat dinner tonight.

The mooncakes were just made and were still warm. No one had ever eaten them before. The taste and texture were really good. Even the chefs had one each, not to mention the others.

Sun Ji took the first bite. It was still warm and tasted very good. "Hmm... delicious." He had never eaten such a special cake. It was filled with red bean paste and tasted very good.

"Brother, you eat." Gan Weilin was still thinking about his brother after he had food. He held one in his hand and gave it to his brother. Gan Weiqi took it. Wei Lin had been helping in the kitchen for the past two days. Every day he ate until his belly was round. "Don't eat too much." He said.

"Oh." Gan Weilin lowered his head and ate perfunctorily. He thought that there would be other flavors later and he wanted to try them all. What he likes most now is to stay in the kitchen with Cao Xiangnan, where he can taste all the fresh food.

"Get up early tomorrow morning to practice martial arts." Gan Weiqi glanced at Wei Lin, who was trying to stuff food into his mouth like a rabbit, and said, "Okay." Gan Weilin had no objection, and looked at his brother with big eyes.

As long as he had food, he was satisfied. Gan Weiqi couldn't bear to be too harsh on this man.

The freshly baked moon cakes were all divided up at the back, and then he continued to make cakes. The pickled egg yolks in the morning will come in handy in the afternoon. After soaking in the kitchen for almost a whole day and teaching the two masters hand in hand, Cao Xiangnan came out of the kitchen.

The mooncakes made later were ready in the evening when the most guests came to eat. A small portion was served to each table for the guests to taste. The waiter who served them would introduce them by saying, "This is our fresh mooncake from Yipinzhai, specially made for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and sent to the master for a taste."

Mooncake? Well, this name is good, the master liked it as soon as he heard it.

If someone asked about it after tasting it, the waiter would introduce the types of mooncakes. There are many types, and the styles and tastes are much better than ordinary mooncakes. This fresh food is very good to buy back home for the Mid-Autumn Festival or give as a gift.

"Our shopkeeper said that if you want to buy it, you have to come to our building in advance to order it. The earlier you order, the better. Otherwise, I'm afraid that by then..." The servant added a sentence at the end, and then smiled. He didn't say it so clearly, but everyone who heard it understood the meaning.

"This old Fang is getting better and better at doing business." It is true that when the fresh food in Yipinzhai comes out, you can't buy it even if you have money. When the eldest master heard this, he knew that he might not be able to buy it even if he had money, so he winked and asked the steward who followed behind to take a look.

The masters who came to eat also took a small portion away and took it home for their family to taste, so there was no mooncake left in the end. On the first day when the mooncakes came out, we received many orders from families wanting to order mooncakes. We were afraid that if we ordered too late, we wouldn’t be able to buy them even if we had money.

Cao Xiangnan raised his eyebrows when he saw the record book. Oh, there are quite a lot.

He closed the book and saw Fang, the shopkeeper, smiling so much that his eyes almost disappeared. He said, "I think there will be a lot of orders in the future." Now is only the first day, and only a few people have eaten moon cakes. Later, if they are delicious, more people will buy them. Therefore, more and more people will buy moon cakes in the future.

"Yes, indeed. Nan, let's go upstairs and have a cup of tea." Shopkeeper Fang was in a very good mood. During the two days when Cao came, their business was 30% better than usual. If possible, he wanted to detain him here. However, when he went to Cao's house as a guest with his boss last time, Shopkeeper Fang knew that this man valued his wife and children more than anything else, and he was afraid that he would not be willing to come to Nanyang. But he could let him bring his wife and children to Nanyang? But this needs to be considered in the long run.

On the first day the mooncakes were made, Shopkeeper Fang saw the benefits of the mooncakes. Now, Yipinlou is the only one that can make mooncakes. It is hard to say who will be able to make mooncakes in the future, but the brand of Yipinzhai is definitely well-known.

Today, Shopkeeper Fang also saw that there are many styles and flavors of mooncakes. Yipinzhai really can't make such things. Shopkeeper Fang knows in his heart that these things are all the credit of Cao Xiangnan.

Since Cao Xiaozi became a cash cow, Yipinzhai's daily income has been increasing. The other party believes in him, and he will not let him down. With the master's previous calculation of dividends for Cao Xiangnan as a reference, Fang, the shopkeeper, also planned to calculate dividends for Cao Xiangnan for this mooncake. "What do you think, Nan?" he asked.

"Thank you very much, Fang, the shopkeeper..." Cao Xiangnan naturally agreed a thousand times. This calculation of dividends means that there will be money in the future, which is naturally much better than selling the recipe and getting the money all at once. Since Fang, the shopkeeper, took the initiative to propose it, it is much better than what he proposed. In

addition, the new dishes in the building are all made by Cao Xiangnan, so Fang, the shopkeeper, talked about this issue with Cao Xiangnan. But Fang, the shopkeeper, knew that this issue still had to be decided by their boss, and he, as a manager, could not make the decision.

The two entered the private room and talked for a long time. After they had agreed on a lot of things, they came out of the private room with smiles on their faces.

Fang, the shopkeeper, wrote a letter and sent a copy of the latest food and recipes to the master. He asked someone to send it to the master as soon as possible. I think the things that were sent to the master a few days ago should be arriving soon.
