âAlright,â he said. Zhang Ye acknowledged and then brought up another matter.âElder Wang is going to stay in Rong city for a while.â
âHa?â Yuan Zhou didnât know about that. He asked doubtfully,ââHow long ago?â
âAfter the banquet ended yesterday, elder Wang announced that his eldest son, Wang Mingjie, would be the president of the knife-carrying cuisine Department. Then, I received a call from elder Wang. He said that he would be arriving in Chengdu today or tomorrow.â Zhang Ji explained in detail.
Zhang Ji was like the host in Sichuan, so it was reasonable for Wang Huai to inform the host of his temporary stay in Chengdu.
The judges of this young chefâs exchange competition were Yuan Zhou, Fujiwara Jiayuan, and Zhang Yan. Yuan Zhou was the head of the judging panel.
The rules of the competition were all ten points, and the team leader couldnât give twenty points. The team leaderâs responsibility was to make the decision in the case of an equal distribution.
The exchange meeting for young chefs was held in Chengdu. Although it was not a Sichuan cuisine, Zhang Yan, as the chairman of the Sichuan cuisine Association, had no problem being a judge.
Of course, Zhang Yan was the least well-known internationally. Moreover, like Zhou Shijie, Zhang Yan took good care of Yuan Zhou.
So when Zhang Ye asked that the rating was based on his own subjective opinion, he took the initiative to call Fujiwara and explain the matter.
âI heard that old master Wang specially brought head chef Wang to perform the turtle and lion dance for you, little Yuan?â Zhang Ye asked.
âYes, Mingjieâs head chefâs knife skills are also very exquisite.â Yuan Zhou said to the point.
âThen thereâs no mistake.â At the other end of the phone, Zhang Yan nodded his head. The reason why Wang Huai came to Chengdu was most likely because of master chef Restaurant. That was why Zhang Yan told Yuan Zhou about it. Now, he was even more certain about it.
âLittle Yuan, how is head chef Wangâs cutting technique compared to your disciple, master Cheng âs?â Zhang Ji suddenly asked.
In terms of culinary skills, Yuan Zhou had always been straightforward. Therefore, after a few seconds of silence, he answered,ââItâs not fair to compare him with head chef Mingjie. â
What Yuan Zhou meant was that Wang Mingjie had always been protected by Grandpa Wang Huaiâs cooking skills, so it was unfair.
But when Zhang Ji heard this, the meaning was different.
âVery good. In the beginning, I thought that you were the pride of our Sichuan chefs, but now it seems that you are the pride of all Chinese cuisines. But the key is that you are from Sichuan, not Lu, hahaha.â After saying that, Zhang Ye laughed proudly.
Zhou Shijie was from Lu province. Seeing Zhang Yan acting so smug, he wondered what kind of grudge the two of them had âŠ
âIâve also applied for a route. â Zhang Yan told Yuan Zhou another piece of good news over the phone.
âIn the future, the No. 6 airport bus line will take you directly from the airport to the food Plaza beside Taoxi road,â Zhang Yan explained in detail.
There were a total of five airport bus lines in Chengdu. One of them was in Qu County, the other three were located in the train station and passenger station, and the last one was located in the city center, opposite the min Mountain Hotel.
It was opened there because of its geographical location, which was close to the city center. It was opened beside Taoxi road because it was convenient for tourists to come to master chef Restaurant to check in.
One could imagine the status of master chef Restaurant when the Airport Express Line reached Taoxi road.
âThank you, President Zhang. I understand.â Yuan Zhou expressed his gratitude.
Zhang Ji was also a Swift and decisive person. He hung up the phone after he finished speaking.
Yuan Zhou looked at the phone and remained silent for a while. Then, he asked a question in his heart with a very solemn tone,ââSystem, am I the legendary Son of Heavenâs mandate? I can fight five people at the start of the game and pick up divine weapons from the ground. Once I release my domineering aura, everyone will be in awe!â
The system was so shocked by this sudden action that it fell silent for a full ten minutes before it replied.
âHow many dishes? Youâre drinking so much. â The system displayed.
âThereâs only a plate of peanuts ⊠Bah, what the hell. â Yuan Zhou was almost led into the ditch by the system. He explained seriously,ââYou see, I was just hesitating whether I should take leave or not. Elder Wang came to Rong city, which means I donât need to take leave.â
âThis is no longer just pure luck. After all, as far as I remember, there have been quite a few incidents like this.â Yuan Zhou shouted in his heart, so needless to say, I must be the most beautiful girl in the night sky.
The system replied unhurriedly,ââThis only proves that I have the attributes of a koi fish.â
Yuan Zhouâs excitement gradually faded away. He said,ââSystem, why didnât you learn the good stuff? youâve learned 100% of the crowâs shamelessness.â
The system displayed,âthe system didnât learn from Wu Haiâs shamelessness. The system learned from the hostâs thick skin. After all, I havenât reached Wu Haiâs realm.â
ââŠâ Yuan Zhou said,âis it that interesting to hurt each other?â
The system remained silent. Yuan Zhou felt that the system must have realized its mistake and went to reflect on itself.
Since he didnât have to ask for leave, Yuan Zhou was in a much better mood. He was restoring the turtle and lion dance in the kitchen. In fact, at his level of cutting skills, unless it was the level of the knife skill collection, everything else could be said to be clear.
âThe turtle lion dance is quite difficult. I need at least a week to master it.â Yuan Zhou thought in the heart.
At about 3:30 in the afternoon, master Cheng arrived in a hurry. He first greeted his master Yuan Zhou. Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then waited for the follow-up. After all, master Cheng wouldnât have come here if he had nothing to do.
âThereâs something I need to report to you, master,â Master Cheng said respectfully.
âWhat is it?â
Yuan Zhou put down the knife and then asked. He didnât touch the knife when he was talking, when he was distracted, or when he wasnât focused on his work. This was the rule set by grandfather Wang for himself. Yuan Zhou felt it was very reasonable, because he had always been doing the same.
âSichuan has been selecting six outstanding representatives recently. They are in the six fields of food and beverage, economics, literature, music, folk customs, and technology.â âI just sent out a notice. Iâm representing the F & B field,â said master Cheng.
Master Cheng briefly talked about this award. It was a rather important award that rewarded and supported outstanding talents. Anyway, it was a representative selected from six fields. At that time, it would give the green light in many aspects.
He was the chief engineer of an electronics company in the field of science and Technology. Needless to say, he was a famous writer from Sichuan. He was not a singer or celebrity, but a professor in the piano department of Sichuan.
There was no need to talk about folklore and economics. The former was a famous scholar who studied folklore, while the latter was the founder of a large company.
âI think youâre the most suitable person in the F & B industry, master.â Master Cheng told him his intention.
âThen why do you think the officials selected you as the representative of Sichuanâs food and beverage industry?â Yuan Zhou responded.
âUm âŠâ Master Cheng was stupefied by the question. As soon as he received the news, he found that his master was not among the six people. Therefore, he hurriedly rushed over. He really didnât think about it carefully.
He only thought that as an international chef, his master was from Sichuan and his restaurant had always been in Sichuan. Under such circumstances, it would be reasonable to choose Yuan Zhou.
âYouâre the most suitable for this position. Just accept the award in peace. â Yuan Zhou said directly without any explanation.
âYes, master,â Although master Cheng still had some doubts, he believed that he would be right if he listened to his master.
âAlso, you can call me to talk about these things in the future. The weather is too hot, so you donât have to come here.â Yuan Zhou noticed that master Chengâs forehead was full of sweat and he was panting a little. That was why he said that.
âThat wonât do. Masterâs matters are all big matters. As his disciple, I should make a trip. This is also a form of respect for master.â Master Cheng shook his head and said.
âWhat a blockhead,â Yuan Zhou ridiculed in the heart.
However, after thinking carefully, Yuan Zhou only knew the answer in his heart. After all, master Cheng attached so much importance to etiquette that it was exactly the same as his rules.
âIf master doesnât have any other instructions, Iâll go back first.â Master Cheng always left as soon as he finished speaking and would never delay Yuan Zhouâs time.
âHowâs Liao Yue and the others doing?â Yuan Zhou asked with concern.
âThe young man from the Qing chef society is a talented chef. He learns fast.â Master Cheng said.
âThatâs good. Are you tired?âYuan Zhou continued to ask.
âIâm not tired. Itâs my honor as a disciple to share my masterâs burden.â Master Cheng said seriously.
After asking a few more questions about the details of the green Chef societyâs observation group, the two of them ended their conversation and master Cheng left.
âWhat a coincidence, I was just about to send the photos over.â Yuan Zhou packed up the knives and muttered in his heart.
Thatâs right. Yuan Zhou actually knew about the activity mentioned by master Cheng last night.
The Sichuan officials wanted to select six field representatives, but Yuan Zhou was indeed not one of them. He had received a call last night that he was selected as the âmost outstanding representative of Sichuanâ.
Thatâs right, there was still the most outstanding representative of the six fields. Because it was an Official Selection, it was not made public, so Cheng zhaomei did not know.
Moreover, the officials even hoped that Yuan Zhou could give them a photo as publicity.
Fortunately, Yuan Zhou had taken a set of professional photos when he was promoting it in the local kitchen before.
After the selection, Yuan Zhou gave a low-profile and calm one to the staff.
In less than a minute, the other party replied,â[Thank you for the trouble, head chef Yuan. The photo is very good.]
âWell, in that case, Zhao Mei and I won an award each. We are still very strong.â Yuan Zhou revealed a satisfied smile.
He went back to the second floor to wash his face and hands. He could start preparing the ingredients for dinner.
During dinner, Wang Hong came early and was the first to arrive at the restaurant with Wu Hai.
Then, the first thing Wang Hong said to su Ruoyan was,ââIâd like a fried tenderloin and a crepes. â
âThese two dishes arenât on the menu, and theyâre street food âŠâ Su Ruoyan replied.
Mao Ye had naturally told su Ruoyan that there were street food for supper. In order to be a good shop assistant, su Ruoyan had already memorized the thick stack of menus in master chef Restaurant.
âI didnât order any street food. I ordered the fried tenderloin, which is Lu cuisine, and the Tianjin cuisine, which is a fruit pancake âŠâ Wang Hong was stunned before he could finish his sentence.
When he went back last night, he still wanted to eat fried tenderloin and crepes, so he went to the snack Street.
There werenât many other things in Chengdu at night, but there were a lot of snacks. Although he bought many portions, the sesame on the pancake made by Yuan Zhou was still more delicious.
He went home dejectedly and suddenly remembered that he could order fried tenderloin and crepes as dishes. Then, Wang Hong checked and found out that one of them was Tianjin cuisine and the other was Lu cuisine. Therefore, Wang Hong came here excitedly tonight.
Until Wang Hong came back to his senses, master chef Restaurant hadnât served Tianjin and Shandong cuisine yet.
âThen Iâd like a serving of plain white rice from the 100 styles of rice cuisine, Kung Pao Chicken, and a serving of mapo tofu.â After ordering, Wang Hong paid with Alipay. As there were no pancakes or tenderloin left, Wang Hong was still in a bad mood.
âWang Xiaohong, donât be discouraged. I often come up with ideas that I think are good, but in reality, they are full of loopholes. This is very normal.â Having just ordered the dishes, Wu Hai actually comforted Wang Hong, which was really a rare thing.
âIâm so smart, but I still made such a mistake. With your intelligence, itâs too normal.â Wu Hai consoled him and wanted to beat him to death after hearing that.
As expected, Wang Hong didnât want to eat the jianbing and the Tenderloin anymore after hearing that. Now he wanted to press Wu Hai to death.
What right did the Black Beast have to say that there was something wrong with his intelligence? just when Wang Hong was about to refute loudly, he heard Wu Hai say,âThere are many customers in this small restaurant. Donât affect others.â
With just one sentence, Wang Hong swallowed back the words he wanted to say. Wang Hong could only write them down in his little notebook and think about it after dinner.
âThis is the consequence of having no conscience!â Wu Hai chuckled and felt very happy after completing his revenge.
Thatâs right, it was because of the supper that he had spoken to Wang Hong. After all, when it came to food, the Black Beast was very serious.
All in all, it was very childish.
After the dinner was over and the guests and su Ruoyan had left, Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and went to Yuan Zhou mysteriously.
âCompass, donât say anything good. Iâm not thinking about you.â Wu Hai started the conversation.
âHmm, what good news?â Yuan Zhou said with a flat tone.
âTo the sky?â Wu Hai asked.
The sudden question made Yuan Zhou burst out in a dialect,ââWhat?â
âTake the sky. Take the helicopter.â Wu Hai said.
Only then did Yuan Zhou withdraw his expression and recover his calm state. He asked,ââWhat are you doing in the sky? is the ground not enough for you?â
âOverlooking master chef Restaurant. Compass, donât you want to look down from the sky?â Wu Hai said.
Having said that, Yuan Zhou was really a little interested. He also wanted to see Taoxi road from the sky.
Yuan Zhou asked,âwhen will you go to heaven?â
âTonight. Jiawei booked a helicopter for me yesterday. Are you going?â Wu Hai said.
âGo, wait for me to explain the matter of the small Tavern.â Yuan Zhou said straightforwardly.
âNo problem. Jiawei will be waiting for us at the end of the street. I still need to go back to get something. We will meet at the end of the street later.â While saying that, Wu Hai ran away. However, he didnât tell Wu Shou what time they would gather. Therefore, Wu Shou didnât hear Yuan Zhouâs shouts of joy.
It was true. However, Yuan Zhou still had to explain the matter. Mao Ye would usually come more than 20 minutes earlier. Today was no exception.
Yuan Zhou told Mao Ye about the matter.
âBoss, donât worry. I can handle the small Tavern by myself.â Mao Ye immediately clenched his fist.
Yuan Zhou nodded his head. Fortunately, it didnât rain today. Otherwise, he really couldnât do anything about it. After that, Yuan Zhou turned on his phone and prepared to ask what time they would gather. Then, he found Zheng Jiawei had sent him the time of gathering, the exact location, the license plate and the color of the car.
The meeting place was not at the end of the street, but the fourth parking lot at the end of the street. It was almost time. Yuan Zhou went upstairs and changed into plain clothes. After informing Mao Ye, he walked towards the fourth parking lot.
It was about 10 minutes on foot. Yuan Zhou walked fast, so he arrived at the fourth parking lot in about 7 minutes.
Then, he saw Zheng Jiawei and Wu Lin, who were standing beside the car and waiting for him.
âBoss Yuan,ââgood evening,â Wu Lin greeted Zheng Jiawei.
âSorry to trouble you today, Jiawei.â Yuan Zhou said.
âItâs no trouble at all. The helicopter I rented is quite big. Itâs not a problem,â Zheng Jiawei said.
When the helicopter was flying, all the procedures were in place.
âLittle hai hasnât arrived yet, so we can only wait for him.â Zheng Jiawei said.
âAlright,â he said. Yuan Zhou nodded his head and suddenly thought of one thing. Would Wu Hai get lost from Taoxi road to here?
He then thought that Zheng Jiawei would never leave any loopholes when he did things. Therefore, he should have made some arrangements for Wu Hai to find him.
About five minutes later, Wu Hai ran over jubilantly with a small bag on his back.
âJiawei, the map you prepared is really good. I found it so easily. Oh, I also brought my tape recorder, as well as the necessary mangoes and oranges.â Wu Hai reported what he brought.
Hmm ⊠He didnât bring a notebook, pen, or drawing board, but oranges and mangoes? Yuan Zhou didnât understand what that was.
What he didnât understand the most was Zheng Jiawei drawing a map for Wu Hai. Wu Hai even found it?
