In a late-night dream, his deceased mother came to him with a smiling face, bringing Xiaohu's favorite roast chicken. Xiaohu reminisced about the joyful moments of his childhood when he used to sell smoked roasted chicken with his mother at the Cingjing Farm. This memory inspired him to set up a stall and sell roasted chicken, aiming to recreate his mother's uniquely flavored and traditionally smoked roasted chicken. However, his business struggled to take off, and he found himself trapped in a difficult predicament. In addition to providing several rounds of emergency assistance to stabilize Xiaohu's livelihood, the case investigator also launched a mission to rescue Xiaohu’s business! The booth's imagery was comprehensively revamped. Funding was provided to create a bamboo booth that incorporated elements of nature, complementing with the surroundings. The booth was named "Lao Hu Roasted Chicken" (Lao Hu means "Tiger" in Chinese). The investigator assisted in creating a sign with indigenous motifs, suggested that Xiaohu wear traditional indigenous attire, and recommended using paper boxes to package the roasted chicken for an enhanced presentation. Business cards were printed and attached to the boxes to promote the business. With an overall emphasis on indigenous imagery, the business gradually improved, allowing Xiaohu to become self-sufficient. He embarked on a new chapter in life with happiness and enthusiasm!

The smell of smoked roast chicken evokes the deep memory of Xiaohu and his mother - the taste of happiness!
