Against the background of a prosperous industry driven by annual incense cutting and fixed-period holding of "eating and worshiping" and "eating and making Jiao" rituals in the southwestern coastal areas, Cai Jiading has been undertaking Tucheng Zaixiang and Jiao productions since early on, relying on his own good skills. Xigang's incense-cutting banquet has become famous in Xigang and Tucheng.

In order to cope with the large number of Xiangke and temple fair banquets that often involve dozens or even hundreds of tables, a large number of manpower is required. "Gading Master Banquet" is still a family business run by brothers, and even the next generation joins in to run it together. , and established the company with great foresight to avoid the dispersion of the family business due to the replacement of chefs in the future. After Cai Yufeng took over the management, he made more efforts towards a sound system. Accounts and rights and responsibilities among brothers were clear, and labor was reasonably divided among children and nephews. When working on desks, they were carried out according to standardized procedures.
