Lin Guifen worked as the head chef at Fuman Pavilion for fifteen years, but a harsh "Your salary is forty-five hundred, take it or get out" made her grab her old iron ladle and walk away. She rented a dilapidated grain depot for twenty-eight thousand a year, turning things around from barely booking five tables to selling out all twelve tables of longevity banquets; from surviving price wars to having loyal guests willing to pay more just for her cooking. Meanwhile, her former employer tried to squeeze out profits using frozen chicken, pork hind hocks, and reheated leftovers, only to ruin a wedding banquet and completely wreck their reputation. When Sun Meijuan came knocking with the keys in hand, begging her to take over, Lin Guifen calmly replied, "Even if I come back, it won't be to work for you."
