"Madam Shen, I have another request, and I hope you will grant it."
Manager Yuan also wanted to buy Shen Yunsheng's recipes. Although he had a master chef, they didn't know much about how to cook bamboo shoots.
"Please speak freely, Manager Yuan."
Shen Yunsheng was in a good mood, and she would agree to any request from Manager Yuan as long as it wasn't excessive.
"Madam Shen, could you tell me how to cook bamboo shoots?" Manager Yuan asked directly.
"Of course, you can prepare a pen and paper for me, and I will write them down."
Once Shen Yunsheng received a pen and paper, she wrote down all the ways to eat bamboo shoots: stir-fried, stewed, and cold-dressed, and she noted them all down.
After receiving the recipe, Manager Yuan couldn't stop smiling.
On their first meeting, Shen Yunsheng decided to improve the quality of service. Seeing that Manager Yuan was in a good mood, she smiled and suggested, "Manager Yuan, we can name this specialty dish 'Three Spring Colors'."
"Madam Shen, the name of your dish is very poetic." Manager Yuan was overjoyed. The name of the dish was so evocative that it would easily attract scholars and literati.
Shen Yunsheng smiled slightly at Manager Yuan, "To be honest, the name of this dish does indeed come from a poem."
"Madam Shen, I would like to hear the details."
A look of admiration flashed in Manager Yuan's eyes.
Shen Yunsheng cleared his throat and said, "The name of my dish comes from a poem about mountain bamboo shoots. After all, mountain delicacies have a different taste. The white shreds rely on skillful knife work. A quick stir-fry in the wok brings out the colors of spring. The boundless scenery is reflected in the wine."
"My wife, your poem is very fitting for the occasion," Xiao Jingchuan couldn't help but praise his wife.
He also found the colors of spring very poetic.
"Madam Shen, please write this poem on paper."
Manager Yuan handed the pen to Shen Yunsheng, and after Shen Yunsheng wrote down the poem, she asked Manager Yuan to write her a supply contract.
If everyone knew that bamboo shoots could be sold for money, they would definitely rush to pick them, so she had to ensure her own interests.
Manager Yuan was a straightforward man. After he finished writing the contract, he asked Shen Yunsheng to bring the bamboo shoots to be weighed.
Four baskets of bamboo shoots, totaling 176 catties, were sold for a total of 1,056 coins.
Shen Yunsheng was worried that the bamboo shoots would spoil if left for too long, so she suggested to Manager Yuan that if they couldn't use them all, they should be dried into bamboo shoots.
After receiving a meaningful look from Xiao Jingchuan, Manager Yuan smiled and asked, "Madam Chen, how much are these recipes? Please name your price."
Shen Yunsheng never thought about money. She was already very happy that Manager Yuan was willing to buy their bamboo shoots. She would not lose such a big customer for such a small amount of money.
"Manager Yuan, I'll give you these recipes for free."
Xiao Jingchuan gave Manager Yuan a wink, and Manager Yuan then said, "Then I thank Madam Shen here."
Shen Yunsheng made a casual, polite remark, and Manager Yuan handed the silver to Shen Yunsheng.
After the transaction was completed, Shen Yunsheng and his wife, along with his sister-in-law, went to the lobby of the restaurant to find Xiao Wenjing.
When Xiao Wenjing saw his son and his wife carrying empty baskets toward him, he smiled gently.
"Jingchuan's family, have you sold all the bamboo shoots? How much did you make in total?"
