According to legend, in the late Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, about 1776, Jin Maosheng, the founder of Jinjia old shop, had the idea of doing mutton soup business to support his family because of his poor family and forced to make a living. Although mutton is superior meat, the smell of fishy smell often makes diners shy away from it and dare not ask for it.

In order to find a recipe to eliminate fishy smell, the old man Jin Maosheng took great pains to experiment with seasonings, made great efforts in production, selected hundreds of natural seasonings, made numerous combinations, and screened and concentrated countless times.

Finally, a mutton soup was made, which was delicious and suitable for all ages. As a result, the old man Jin Maosheng became a legend inside and outside the old town of Feisheng, and spread a beautiful and memorable legend.

Jin Maosheng, an old man, devoted himself to studying the formula of mutton soup to get rid of the greasy smell. He tried for many years, but it was hard to find a positive solution, so he was unhappy all day. One day, the old man went to town to relax, and he unconsciously went out of the West Gate to reach the Xiguan boundary. He looked around, but he was surprised to see Yalu Mountain reflected by the morning sun.

Heart said, it's better to climb the mountain and look far away to solve the depression in my heart. I hurried to the mountain and climbed the stairs. But when I saw pines and cypresses, the air was fresh, and I felt a little tired when I came along the mountain road for more than ten miles. When I saw a plate-like stone by the road, I leaned on it and fell into a dream.

Dreaming of Babel Phoenix, dreaming of nine Yalu Mountains, an old man met a white-haired Taoist and said with a smile, "The essence of water is jade, the essence of soil is sheep, and sheep is an auspicious thing. Wool can be woven into clothes, and the skin can keep out the cold, and the meat is delicious. Today, I am sincerely grateful to you for giving me a secret recipe for cooking sheep's heavenly books. If it is cooked properly, its taste will become more fragrant and fishy."

How dare the old man neglect after waking up? He should go home as soon as possible, and cook the mutton soup carefully according to the "secret recipe of heavenly books". Sure enough, the soup is clear and fragrant, and it is refreshing. Smellers are drooling, eaters are full of praise, and the number of guests is increasing. As a result, business is booming.

The old man who opened the shop didn't dare to neglect, so he quickly filled out a bowl of chopped mutton offal soup and took two sesame cakes. After eating, Xiaokang was radiant and full of energy, only to remember that he didn't ask what he was eating. The old man told him, "This is called mutton offal soup, which is made of sheep offal."

Xiaokang thought it was very tasty, so he blurted out a poem: "xifengkou is far away, and the ancient road of Saibei is long. Wild deer enter the willow forest, and Bagou mutton offal soup. "

Sima Zi didn't say anything at that time, but when he got home, the more he thought about it, the more wrong he was. He thought it was the monarch's intention to make a fool of himself in public: "Today, all the ministers here are from the DPRK, and I am a doctor if I can't do it again. Everyone shares mutton soup, but the monarch doesn't give me mutton soup. This is not obvious to underestimate me."

Thinking of this, he got up and left angrily and went to Chu. Dispatch troops, the State of Chu, attacked Zhongshan under the clever lobbying of Sima Zi.
