Chapter 256 Improved Recipe
The first version says that a descendant of an imperial chef came to Lanzhou city recently. In order to seek a breakthrough in his culinary skills, he tried all the delicacies in Lanzhou. The descendant felt that the dishes he tasted had their shortcomings, so he left behind improved recipes, hoping that the restaurant could use the improved recipes to make more delicious dishes.
The second version says that the Rabbit God came down to earth to taste all kinds of food in the world. After traveling to Lanzhou City, he felt that the local cuisine was not to his liking, so he left behind a recipe for the people to refer to.
The reason why some people speculated that this was a recipe left by the Rabbit God was because the paper on which the recipe was recorded was orange paper that they had never seen before. The paper was glossy and had a fine texture. There was also a strange blue pattern in the lower right corner of the paper that looked like both a rabbit and a human.
The menu is not written in the common vertical format, but in horizontal format, with neat fonts and uniform size, and it does not look like it was written with a brush.
Shop owners who had seen the improved recipe thought that it must be something extraordinary. After the news of the improved recipe spread, they changed from keeping it a secret in the beginning to sharing the recipes they had obtained with each other.
Of course, they wouldn't be talking about what was recorded on the recipe, as that was related to their store's business and naturally couldn't be disclosed at will.
They were talking about the appearance of the paper and the handwriting used to write the recipes. After this exchange, they were surprised to find that the improved recipes in their hands should have been written by the same person.
As soon as this news came out, it caused a huge discussion among the public. As more people discussed it, various versions of speculation came out. Among them, the two versions that were most discussed were "descendants of the imperial chef" and "gods descending to the earth."
Of course, there are other more outrageous versions. No one knows which version is the truth, but the improved recipes in the hands of various shops and stall owners do exist.
The shops and stall owners who have improved the recipes have seen unprecedented business boom. Everyone wants to try the food made with the improved recipes to see what it tastes like.
How to display your own recipes? The specific content of the recipes cannot be made public, but the labels can be, so the shops made a simple frame for the recipes, covering the text content of the recipes, and only showing the blue rabbit pattern in the lower right corner of the recipes.
When a customer asks about improving the menu, the store owner will carefully describe the origin of the recipe, and then take out the recipe in a masking frame and show it to the customer.
For a time, the image of Blue Rabbit became popular throughout Lanzhou.
Lin Chuyi had mentioned this to Qian Laiye before taking action, but Qian Laiye only knew the general idea and had no idea how Lin Chuyi would do it specifically.
As soon as the Blue Rabbit incident came out, Qian Lai knew that it must be Lin Chuyi's work. He did not miss this huge popularity and immediately ordered the Craftsmanship Workshop to produce the same rabbit wood carving and promote and sell it in the store.
The store owner couldn't find anyone to deliver the improved recipe, so he bought a blue rabbit statue from the Craftsmanship Workshop and took it home to worship the rabbit god, partly to express his gratitude and partly to ask for protection.
Especially the owners of small stalls, they prayed most devoutly, because many stall owners whose business was poor became prosperous because of the improved recipes given by Lin Chuyi.
Many people who did not receive the improved menu bought the blue rabbit wood sculpture to take home as a sacrifice. They insisted that the dishes in their shop were delicious and did not need to be improved, which was why they did not receive the improved menu. However, they privately burned incense, prayed for blessings, and offered fruits and snacks to the rabbit statue.
They do all this in the hope that the Rabbit God will visit their shop and bring them improved recipes.
Anything that is bought by many people will become a trend. So Craftsmanship Workshop struck while the iron was hot and produced a bunch of plates, bowls, chopsticks and spoons engraved with the same rabbit, put them in gift boxes engraved with blue rabbit patterns, and sold them in the store as a Rabbit God gift box set.
Qilixiang also simultaneously launched the same snack gift box as Blue Rabbit. In addition to the store’s signature products, the gift box also contains customized Blue Rabbit cakes. The gift box is limited to 100 sets per day and is always in short supply.
Other shops followed suit and began to add rabbit logos to their products, which became very popular among the people. Many shops made a lot of money from this and began to praise the Rabbit God even more enthusiastically.
The influence of the Rabbit God grew day by day. In just over ten days, with the vigorous promotion of various stores, it became a household name in Lanzhou City.
How popular was the Rabbit God? At one point, it became so popular that people were embarrassed to go out without something rabbit-related.
The strange things in Lanzhou City soon spread through the merchants passing by, and attracted a wave of people from other cities to come and try out the new things, and buy some things with the Rabbit God logo on them as souvenirs.
For a time, Lanzhou City’s business ushered in a new wave of climax because of the improved rabbit logo on the menu.
Lin Chuyi, the instigator of all this, knew nothing about it. She had already moved from Lanzhou Prefecture to the major county towns within the jurisdiction of Lanzhou.
The reason why Lin Chuyi left the improved recipe in that way was just to prevent it from being easily imitated.
You have to know that there will be competitors in any business, and competition in the food business is particularly obvious.
If someone with bad intentions takes advantage of the trend of sending improved recipes to imitate the crime and take the opportunity to set a trap for the opponent in order to damage the other party's reputation, it will go against Lin Chuyi's original intention.
She didn't want to see this happen, so she thought of using high-quality orange paper and fountain pen that could not be imitated in this era to write the improved recipe. However, she never thought that by accident, the business district of Lanzhou City became famous.
However, the current situation is exactly what Lin Chuyi wants. A single school of thought is too eye-catching, and it would be better if a hundred schools of thought could contend with each other.
As the leader leads the others, the followers follow suit. As a county town under the jurisdiction of Lanzhou City, the news was naturally well-informed. Soon the news of the Rabbit God in Lanzhou City spread to various county towns within the jurisdiction of Lanzhou. After becoming popular in the county, it was spread to the town by traveling merchants.
The shop owners who had previously kept Lin Chuyi's improved recipe hidden and dared not show it to others, changed their previous practices after hearing the news from the provincial capital/county town, and began to publicize the fact that they had their own recipes.
Just kidding, this matter has become a hot topic right now. If you make good use of it, you will have no worries about business in the future.
After the news spread, they didn't have to worry about anyone trying to snatch the recipe away, because someone was protecting them.
Lanzhou Governor Liu Changhe has witnessed a series of changes in Lanzhou City. He knows that such changes are good for Lanzhou. If such changes can last long, it will also be his political achievement. Therefore, he attaches great importance to public security management during this period.
