Lin Yunchu quickly came back to his senses, smiled softly at Xue Jingran, nodded slightly, and responded: "So it's Mr. Xue, I'm honored."

Seeing that Lin Yunchu was neither humble nor arrogant, and did not try to please or fawn after knowing his identity, Xue Jingran felt a little more favorable towards him.

Seeing that several people were carrying a large backpack, he whispered, "You are going to take it to Yipin Pavilion, right? It's a good opportunity for us to go together. You must be tired after standing here for so long."

Just when he arrived here, he happened to meet Manager Li and his men who came to block their way. It took Lin Yunchu and his men a while to carry such a heavy backpack.

What's more, these things should be the goods that Lin Yunchu and others delivered to Yipin Pavilion today.

Seeing that Lin Yunchu, a girl, was having some difficulty carrying the child, Xue Jingran winked at the servant behind him.

The boy immediately understood what he meant and walked forward quickly, intending to take Lin Yunchu's backpack.

Lin Yunchu waved his hand upon seeing this and said, "No need. The Yipin Pavilion is just ahead. Let's just walk faster."

The servant paused and looked at Xue Jingran beside him. Seeing that Lin Yunchu refused, Xue Jingran did not insist anymore and waved to the servant.

Several people followed Lin Yunchu and entered the Yipin Pavilion together.

When they saw Lin Yunchu, a waiter immediately came forward, took the backpacks from several people and went to the kitchen.

Shopkeeper Zhou came up to them with a smile and was about to speak to Lin Yunchu when he saw Xue Jingran following Lin Yunchu into the restaurant.

Shopkeeper Zhou was stunned. Without asking any more questions, he stepped forward and bowed slightly to Zhou Jingran before saying, "Why did the boss come with Miss Lin?"

Thinking of what Piaoxianglou had just done, Zhou Jingran immediately frowned and snorted coldly.

The servant following behind immediately told Manager Zhou what had just happened. After hearing the servant's words, Manager Zhou's face looked unhappy.

"That's nothing, right? This is a common tactic used by Piaoxianglou. I didn't expect them to even dare to stop things from our Yipin Pavilion."

A trace of anger flashed across Manager Zhou's face. Looking at the people coming and going outside the restaurant, he quickly invited Zhou Jingran, Lin Yunchu and others to the private room.

He also asked the waiter to serve tea and cakes.

"Girl Yunchu, don't worry about this. I'll have the shop assistants keep a closer eye on you. I don't think Li Dafu will have the guts to embarrass you after he meets the boss."

Li Dafu is the famous owner of Piaoxianglou. All the colleagues in the restaurants and food stalls in the town know him. He is famous for his ability to judge people by their appearance and will do anything to increase the business of his restaurant.

Many newly opened restaurants were doing good business, and Li Dafu was jealous. He used many shady tricks behind the scenes to ruin other people's businesses.

However, this trick is useless against Yipin Pavilion. Lin Yunchu and Yipin Pavilion have a cooperative relationship. No matter what, he should protect the Lin family's talents.

In fact, since Yipintang's mushroom and bamboo shoot business became booming, many restaurants have followed suit. However, not only can they not recognize the varieties of mushrooms, but the taste of their dishes is also not even a little bit different from Yipintang's.

Many customers who have tasted the food will eventually come back to Yipintang, so the reputation of Yipintang mushrooms and bamboo shoots for their sweetness and deliciousness has become well-known.

When people come to the town and mention mushrooms and bamboo shoots, the first place they come to is definitely Yipintang.

If someone wanted to snatch the mushrooms that Lin Yunchu was selling to Yipintang at this time, Shopkeeper Zhou would definitely be the first to disagree. However, he had a keen eye for people and took a liking to the mushrooms that Lin Yunchu brought at first sight, and he even negotiated the deal with her.

What's more, Lin Yunchu is also a good person. The recipes for mushrooms and bamboo shoots that he gave to Yipintang have now become Yipintang's signature dishes.

Every guest who comes to Yipintang for dinner has specifically requested this dish.

"Uncle Zhou, we're fine. I believe that Shopkeeper Li won't dare to come here again."

Lin Yunchu raised the corner of her mouth slightly. After the shock Xue Jingran had just given her, it would be strange if Manager Li dared to come out and cause trouble for her.

Although she knew that the reason why Yipin Pavilion helped her was because of their mushrooms and bamboo shoots, it was still a help to her after all.

Lin Yunchu was still grateful.

Xue Jingran saw that Lin Yunchu was not so restrained when talking to Manager Zhou, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

After the greetings, as usual, the waiter weighed the basket and took it out. He held a can of chili sauce in his hand and said to Lin Yunchu, "Miss Lin, the mushrooms and bamboo shoots have been weighed. This is what I just found in the basket."

When Lin Yunchu saw the jar, she remembered the chili sauce she had specially wanted to bring to Manager Zhou. However, after the commotion at Piaoxianglou in the morning, she had put it in her backpack and forgot to take it out.

Lin Yunchu took the jar and thanked the waiter before saying to Shopkeeper Zhou, "Uncle Zhou, this is the chili sauce I made myself. I brought a jar here especially for you to try."

Thinking that Shopkeeper Zhou had probably never tasted chili peppers, he gave him some detailed instructions: "You can eat this directly with vegetables, steamed buns, or even cook it. However, the taste is a bit unique. If you haven't tried it before, remember to use less. If you are used to it, you can increase the amount."

After Lin Yunchu finished speaking, he saw Xue Jingran beside him also listening very seriously, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

She didn't know that she would meet Xue Jingran today, and that he was the owner of Yipin Pavilion, but she only brought one can, and now there was no time to go home and get another one.

Lin Yunchu felt a little apologetic, but Xue Jingran didn't care. However, he was very interested in the pepper that Lin Yunchu brought.

He had traveled all over the country before, but had never heard of this thing.

Shopkeeper Zhou was indeed a shopkeeper. He saw through Xue Jingran's thoughts at a glance, and thanked Lin Yunchu and said, "This thing can actually be used to cook. I wonder what it will taste like."

Lin Yunchu paused slightly, looked at the shopkeeper Zhou in front of him, and then looked at Xue Jingran. Both of them seemed very interested in this chili sauce.

An idea suddenly came to her mind. She had already started cultivating peppers. If she could cooperate with Yipintang, wouldn't she be able to increase the cultivation of peppers in the future?

Even if there are no more mushrooms in the mountains in the future, we can still have chili peppers, and the fermented black beans she made will be edible in a few days. These two are the most important seasonings for cooking.

The most important thing is that she is the only one who has these two things!

Thinking of this, Lin Yunchu smiled and said softly to Xue Jingran, "Mr. Xue, I guess you haven't tried this either. How about I go to the kitchen and make two dishes for you and Shopkeeper Zhou to try?"

Lin Yunchu felt as if she saw piles of silver flying towards her. No matter how delicious this thing was, she had to sell it to make some money.
