Siheyuan: One Plate of Cabbage Bankrupts Yi Zhonghai

A scheming, quick-witted, career-climbing war hero and state banquet chef, Lin Fan is reassigned to a Beijing courtyard, where he faces the greed and hypocrisy of its busybodies. He chooses to fight back with food.

Yi Zhonghai puts on a show of virtue? One bowl of "nourishing meat soup" gives the Jia family more than they can handle and completely ruins your plans for old-age support! Deputy Director Li starts a factional struggle?

One dish of "cabbage in clear broth" dazzles the city officials and shows you what it means to be outclassed by skill! With his God-Tier Recipe System, Lin Fan establishes absolute authority in the cafeteria and climbs the factory ranks step by step.

With his culinary skills, he can bring peace to the world; with his iron fists, he can settle any score. He joins forces with Zheng Chaoyang to crack a major espionage case and works with Song Yunhui on technical innovations.

While the courtyard busybodies are still scheming over every meal, Lin Fan has already reached the pinnacle of his era.
