"Do many people ask him to cook?" Bai Nuo asked.
Hu Mingmei nodded.
When he said that, Bai Nuo no longer found it strange. This old man was clearly doing limited-edition marketing. People have a natural curiosity, and when they know there is such a strange person, they all want to see him. And this strange person happens to have real skills, so business naturally picks up.
"How did he get here?" It's so strange that he gave up being a good cook to become a wanderer. "He's so eccentric, can we persuade him to cook for us?"

"I also secured the other two; I got all the money from them!" Hu Mingmei said casually.
Holy crap?
Bai Nuo suddenly felt like she was going to shed a tear for the Hu family in the capital. They were far from the emperor and couldn't come to visit all the time. By the time they found out, Hu Mingmei had eaten all of their things!
