Shen-zin, also spelled Shen-Zin, was a pandaren and the owner of Shen-zin's Sundries, a supplier well-liked by the local farmers in Halfhill. One day the first Pandaren explorer, Liu Lang, walked into the store with a most unusual shopping list, records of which have survived to this day:
- One lantern
- Three liters lamp oil
- Four packages of dehydrated fruit
- Two sacks of dried peas
- Four haunches of salt pork
- Twelve liters of fresh water
- One basket of hardtack
- One compass
- One spyglass
Liu Lang announced his intention to explore the world. Shen-Zin, humoring his client, suggested that Liu Lang should also bring an umbrella. He generously offered one for free.
Beaming, a grateful Liu Lang told Shen-Zin, "I shall name my sea turtle after you!" He happily carted away his supplies, whistling as he headed toward the beach, trailed by dozens of curious onlookers.[1]
