Su Wenwu was shocked when he saw the things in the basin. He stammered, “S-Sister, what are those?”

‘Are they still alive? I never asked what escargots are. I thought they were supposed to be vegetables.’

When he held one of the escargots, he felt something moving inside the shell. He was startled, but not because he was timid. His expression returned to normal after regaining his senses.

Ye Feiran’s eyes lit up when she saw the escargot. She looked at them, asking,

“Binglan, we can eat these things?”

Ye Feiran had seen escargots in some lakes in the south. However, she never thought she could eat them. Still, she knew Su Binglan wanted to use them to make something delicious.

Since Su Binglan planned to cook them, it meant they were edible.

Nonetheless, Ye Feiran wanted confirmation instead of assuming.

‘If Binglan can use these to make delicacies, how would she prepare and cook them? Also, they have shells. Is that why we should wash them? They look pretty clean already, right?’

Ye Feiran grew increasingly curious, wondering if they had escargots in the north.

Su Binglan looked at the duo’s expressions and smiled, saying, “Of course, they’re edible. You’ll know what they taste like soon.”

Her words made it even more mysterious, which piqued Su Wenwu’s interest. If someone besides his sister used escargot, he would think twice about eating it.

“Binglan, I often see these things near lakes in the south,” Ye Feiran said, “If they’re edible, they’ll be a unique delicacy to sell.”

Su Binglan suggested, “If the lake isn’t too big, you can buy it. You should look and see if escargots live in ponds. If they do, you can buy the pond and breed the escargots.”

“l can breed them?” Ye Feiran was puzzled.

Su Binglan explained, “It’s just like raising fish. You can even raise the prawns you brought me similarly.”

Ye Feiran’s eyes lit up. “If escargots taste good, we can breed them and reduce our costs.”

She was a businesswoman at heart and could understand the value and benefits of such things. If something were delicious and could be bred in large quantities, she would profit a lot.

Although she had not tried escargot yet, Ye Feiran was confident by looking at Su Binglan’s expression.

For example, Ye Feiran had accidentally discovered prawns, while others did not know if they could cook or eat prawns. When she brought them to Su Teng Village, Su Binglan knew how to cook and eat them.

Moreover, Su Binglan had her own cooking methods and made garlic prawn vermicelli. Ye Feiran believed Su Binglan could make something good with escargot because of that.

“You’re right.” Su Binglan smiled. “The profits will be high if we sell escargot noodles.’

The dish was delicious, and she believed many would want to try it. By then, she could even make packaged escargot noodles. It would resemble instant noodles that were easy for people to reheat.

‘l can open an escargot noodle shop.’

With that thought in mind, Su Binglan figured she was too busy to run another restaurant. However, since the South had plenty of escargot, she could cooperate with Ye Feiran in opening a restaurant there.

It was only a preliminary idea, so Su Binglan had to make escargot noodles for everyone to taste before deciding to open a restaurant.

Meanwhile, Ye Feiran started the fire to heat the pot. Su Binglan added oil, then dried chili, spring onions, garlic, and ginger before stir-frying them.

When the ingredients became fragrant, she added star anise, fennel, and other seasonings before stir-frying them again.

Ye Feiran smiled when she smelled the fragrance. Although she hadn’t eaten yet, she found the aroma enjoyable. She had tried many dishes as the heir to the Ye family.

However, no delicacy could compare to this. Ye Feiran had never seen so many seasonings in one dish. She had never seen some of the seasonings Su Binglan used either.

Su Wenwu was unsurprised because his sister had made all the seasonings and kept them in a cupboard for cooking. Whenever Su Binglan cooked, the family would know what she used because she would tell them.

He sniffed the fragrance and knew the dish would be delicious. However, he was puzzled when he saw the shells on the escargot, wondering how he would eat it.

‘How do I get the meat out? The shells are hard, so I can’t peel them.’

“Wenwu, did you finish washing the escargots?” Su Binglan asked after stir-frying the ingredients.

“Um, I guess so.” Su Wenwu poured out the water and handed the basin of escargots to his sister. There was plenty of escargot in the basin, but the pot Su Binglan cooked in was relatively large to accommodate them.

She poured them into the pot and stir-fried them. Soon after, she added salt, wine, sugar, chicken essence, southern fermented bean curd, and other things while stir-frying the mixture.

Su Binglan cooked for a long time before she covered and let the dish simmer. It was just in time for the afternoon lunch break, so Shen Qiuhua, Su Fengmao, Su Wenzhe, and Liu Yinyin returned home.

“Ah, it smells so good. I wonder what Binglan’s cooking.”

Everyone guessed what Su Binglan made for lunch. Su Wenze excitedly entered the house, saying, “Last night, Binglan said she wanted to make escargot noodles. Is she making that now?”

“You remember that?” Liu Yinyin chuckled.

Su Wenzhe answered, “Of course. I was still thinking about escargot noodles before sleeping last night.”

Su Fengmao asked, “Doesn’t it smell strange here?”

After some thought, Su Wenzhe said, “It smells similar to stinky tofu.”

The family knew they could not judge a dish by how it smelled. After all, they had smelled and tried stinky tofu.

Shen Mohen and Shen Qiuhui could also smell the aroma when they entered. The duo looked at each other and realized they would have something new for lunch.

They strolled around and observed the village and town to learn from Su Binglan’s business model. The more they looked, the more shocked they were as their understanding of Su Binglan rose to another level..
