The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

"The traffic volume of Qingnian Building is still much less than that of the No. 1 Building in the World." Wang Xinyao came to the door of Qingnian Building, looked at the bustling crowd inside, and thought to herself.

She walked through the door and saw a spacious hall. Although there were many diners, there were still many empty seats.

The waiter immediately came forward and greeted him warmly: "Sir, please come in! What would you like to eat?"

It seems that the waiters here are not that snobbish and do not look at me differently because I am wearing patched clothes.

It was noon, and she was indeed hungry, so she found a stool and sat down, ordering a dish. She found that the price of the dish was much more expensive than that of the street vendors.

After ordering, Wang Xinyao surveyed the restaurant and was surprised to find the decor was just as good as Tianxia Diyilou, and the service was equally excellent. She was bewildered, wondering why the business was so much worse than Tianxia Diyilou. While she was wondering, the dishes arrived. At 500 wen each, it was the most expensive meal she had ever had. Fortunately, she was now well-off and could afford it.

However, after eating the dish, she was a little disappointed with the taste. It was not as delicious as she had imagined. The taste was just average. She even felt that it was not as good as the mushrooms she had made before without salt. She hadn't eaten white rice for a long time. Although the taste of the dish was a little disappointing, the rice was still good.

After eating, Wang Xinyao went to the counter to pay. The shopkeeper, about thirty-five years old, had a scholarly appearance and a kind face. "Shopkeeper, I have some wolf meat in my bag. Would you like to buy it?"

"Wolf meat?" The shopkeeper was very surprised. Wolf meat was really rare, not to mention that the person who asked was a young woman of about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was indeed a young woman with her hair tied up.

"That's right, wolf meat!" Wang Xinyao nodded in affirmation.

"That's great. Please follow me to the kitchen, young lady!" The shopkeeper was immediately delighted. He had been worried about the poor business recently, and wolf meat might attract some customers.

Wang Xinyao followed the shopkeeper into the kitchen. The kitchen was quite large and beautifully decorated. The owner of this restaurant must have put some thought into it.

There are five people in the kitchen, two of them cook, two of them prepare side dishes, and one of them does odd jobs.

"Master Liu, this girl has some wolf meat in her hand. I wonder if you know how to cook it?" The shopkeeper said to a chef who was about 40 years old and was cooking and sweating profusely.

"Wolf meat?" Chef Liu placed the stir-fried dish on the plate and said with a simple smile, "I've never cooked wolf meat before. I'm afraid my skills aren't up to par and I might waste this precious ingredient!"

The shopkeeper felt somewhat helpless and asked, "Miss, I really want to buy this wolf meat, but it's quite difficult for us to prepare it." He knew very well that if this wolf meat was cooked properly, it would definitely attract more diners. However, they didn't know how to make it into a delicious dish.

Wang Xinyao was delighted when she heard what the shopkeeper said, and immediately responded: "This is easy. As long as you buy it, I will teach you what to do with it!" She knew very well that this was a great opportunity. If she could successfully sell the wolf meat, she would not only earn a considerable amount of money, but also establish a good cooperative relationship with the restaurant.

After some negotiation, the two sides reached a consensus: Wang Xinyao would sell wolf meat to the restaurant, but she had to teach them how to cook it.

Wang Xinyao immediately got to work. She instructed the chef to cut a large piece of meat from the wolf's body and then taught the chefs how to cook it, step by step. Soon, the whole kitchen was filled with the aroma, and soon the aroma wafted into the lobby. Customers even asked the waiter what was being cooked. When they heard it was wolf meat, several people immediately ordered it.

This series of actions shocked the shopkeeper, who was no worse than the chef.

"Miss, my last name is Chen, you can call me Shopkeeper Chen. I'll pay you 50 taels for this wolf. Is that okay with you?" Shopkeeper Chen said.

"Okay, no problem!" The silver was more than expected, and Wang Xinyao readily agreed: "Manager Chen, my last name is Wang, and I'm from Xiejia Village. I have some wild food on hand, I wonder if you would like to try it?"

"I have to take a look at what Miss Wang brings out!" Shopkeeper Chen's eyes were full of anticipation.

"Is this it?" Wang Xinyao hurriedly took out the brown tree mushroom from the bag.

Shopkeeper Chen couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Isn't this just an ordinary mushroom?

"Ms. Wang, mushrooms are poisonous and cannot be eaten!" Shopkeeper Chen looked worried.

Wang Xinyao, fully aware of their concerns, remained silent, washing the mushrooms, selecting some pork and chili peppers, and then began cooking. Soon, a fragrant aroma wafted from the kitchen. Once the food was done, Wang Xinyao picked up her chopsticks and began to eat heartily.

This operation left Manager Chen and others stunned.

After about half a minute, Wang Xinyao smiled and said to Shopkeeper Chen and the others, "My mushrooms are not poisonous. Look, I'm safe and sound. They taste really good. Why don't you try them? This will definitely become your specialty dish in the future! And these mushrooms are like Ganoderma lucidum. Eating them occasionally can help prolong your life!"

While Qingnianlou was excellent in every way, it lacked a signature dish. Seeing that Wang Xinyao was indeed safe and sound, Shopkeeper Chen carefully scooped up a piece with his chopsticks and placed it in his mouth. The flavor instantly blossomed in his mouth; it was simply divine. He had run his own restaurant for years, but in his entire life, he had never tasted food so delicious. The ingredients were truly excellent; even a casual cooking method would produce a truly divine meal!

The others, busy at work, immediately paused, chopsticks in hand, and began to taste. As chefs, they were no strangers to ordinary flavors; their palates were already sophisticated. However, this stir-fried meat and mushrooms was undoubtedly the most delicious dish they had ever tasted. The six of them, one chopstick at a time, devoured the large bowl in no time, leaving everyone wanting more.

"How many mushrooms like this do you have left, Miss Wang?" This is the question that Shopkeeper Chen is most concerned about. After all, wolf meat is not often available, and not everyone can afford it. But mushrooms are different. Such a dish costs only one or two taels of silver per plate and can be sold casually. Maybe their store can make a comeback because of this dish!

Wang Xinyao took the remaining mushrooms from the bag and brought them to the kitchen. She gave the chef some instructions on how to cook them, then said, "I always have mushrooms like these. I can provide you with at least 50 kilograms a day. If you want more, I can increase the quantity, but it's 200 wen per kilogram, and I have to order it in advance!"

"Ms. Wang, please wait a moment. I'll go ask the boss!" If advance reservations are needed, the quantity is quite large, and long-term cooperation is required. Shopkeeper Chen felt that he could not make the decision, so he took the freshly fried mushrooms and went to his back hall!

After a while, Shopkeeper Chen came back from the back hall and said to Wang Xinyao, "Miss Wang, our boss wants to see you!"

Wang Xinyao followed Shopkeeper Chen to the back hall, where she saw a young man, about fifteen, sitting there. He was dressed in plain clothes, his face pale, his lips purple, yet his beauty was unmistakable. His figure was as thin as a willow, and his features revealed an air of frailty, yet this only added to his poignant beauty, like a banished immortal.

Shopkeeper Chen introduced them to each other, and Wang Xinyao bowed: "Greetings, Master Chen!"

"You're welcome, young lady!" Chen Liangxian's voice was particularly pleasant. "Your mushrooms are excellent. I can place an order with you, but the prerequisite is that you can't sell them to other companies. Of course, I won't let you suffer too much. I'll give you an extra 10 cents per pound on the price, and you must guarantee to provide us with 50 pounds every day! If that's all right, we'll sign the contract!"

"Okay, no problem!" Wang Xinyao agreed readily. She figured it was late August now, so she could still harvest mushrooms until the end of September. The ring's space preserved freshness, so a year's supply was no problem! When she had enough money later, she could even set up a mushroom farm!

After the contract was signed, Wang Xinyao was about to leave when her eyes inadvertently swept across Chen Liangxian. She kindly reminded him, "Mr. Chen, you've been poisoned. You need treatment as soon as possible, otherwise you can only live for half a year at most!"

"Poisoned? Only six months to live?" Chen Liangxian stumbled upon hearing this, nearly falling to the ground! He had seen numerous doctors before, all of whom described him as frail and sickly, but no one had ever mentioned poisoning. It was precisely because of his frail health that his father had placed him in his remote hometown of Ping'an Town to recuperate!
