[Looking at China along the highway] What else is there in this "star" service area?
[Explanation] Dumplings are just wine. Do you think this kind of eating scene will be at home or in a restaurant?

Some are packaged as gifts and some are enjoyed by a group of people. The annual sales amounted to 2 million. Around yuan.
