Gu Xiaoman brought his experience in modern catering management to the Yan Dynasty, thinking that modern dishes such as stir-fried kidneys and hot pot could reduce the dimensionality and impact.
She heated up a copper pot at Zhenweizhai so hot that diners in the capital queued up from noon to midnight, and even the Ministry of Internal Affairs was alerted.
Then the shopkeeper handed her a banknote and told her: The hot pot recipe has been sold!
This is a battle between cooks and empires. The hot pot in her hand was a fuse, and every node in the imperial kitchen, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the water transport, the ice cellar, and the clan's mansion were waiting for the flames to burn out.
When she finally stood in front of the ice lake in Yuquan Mountain and tasted the truth that had been hidden under the ice for eleven years with the tip of her tongue, she realized that she had never been a chess player.
——She is the answer that someone has been waiting for eleven years.
What boils in a hot pot is not the soup base, but the temperature chain of an era.
Intention: Real power is not obtained out of thin air, but professional skills honed through tens of thousands of repetitions, and a mind that uses systematic thinking to understand the rules. The heroine's growth from a cook who relies on her own skills to a trader who controls the empire's cold chain reveals a core truth - in any era, it is never the opportunistic "gold finger" who can truly settle down, but the self who does one thing to the extreme.
