2448 The sweet burden
Before he came to Singapore to teach, the respect level of Singaporean chefs was 75%, and the respect level of Malaysia chefs was 62%. After a few days of teaching, Singapore had completed it, and Malaysia was only 8% away from completing it. What was efficiency? this was efficiency.
These were not the follow-up developments of the lecture. As the chefs who listened to the lecture continued to spread the news after returning to China, the completion of the task was definitely a matter of time.
“The lecture was worth it. Not only did I gain a lot, but the main mission is about to be completed. I’m also making good progress in other aspects.” Yuan Zhou was very happy in the heart.
“Since the effect of the lecture is so good, I can accept some invitation for lectures in the future. It should be able to promote China’s food culture.” Yuan Zhou calculated silently in his heart.
Ever since Yuan Zhou had defeated a group of chefs in the bogus cooking competition, or rather, crushed them, his name was no longer limited to the top circle in the European cooking circle. Instead, it began to spread and had a trend of becoming more and more widespread.
Many foreign chef’s associations had started to invite Yuan Zhou to take part in the competition or give lectures. Of course, he was definitely not a contestant, but a judge.
However, it was not as good as inviting Yuan Zhou to give a lecture at the moment.
In particular, the French cuisine, Turkey, Greece and some other countries ‘chef’s associations had all invited Yuan Zhou to give a lecture in their own countries.
The French cuisine was even more enthusiastic, especially ju man Li, who directly took on the task and came to China’s Chengdu secretly to invite Yuan Zhou in person, saying that he had to be sincere.
At that time, Yuan Zhou considered that he didn’t have any reward for the French cuisine and his self-cultivation of the French cuisine wasn’t good enough to give a lecture, so he refused tactfully.
Although ju man Li felt it was a pity, he didn’t try to persuade Yuan Zhou further. The reason given by Yuan Zhou was something that even a chef couldn’t refuse.”The French food isn’t up to standard and can’t be cooked to show off.”
Not long after he left Rong city, ju man Li returned to Rong city alone. At this time, he was like a bird on the lookout. Once he entered the forest, he would spread his hooves and have fun.
Therefore, ju man Li immediately used his official position for personal gain and insisted on staying at master chef Restaurant permanently. He had no choice but to return to China when the France people were really anxious.
As for the other countries, although they weren’t as sincere as ju man Li, they had also sent formal invitations. Unfortunately, Yuan Zhou had refused them for the time being.
Through this lecture Singapore, Yuan Zhou realized that he could make some subtle changes. For example, he could hold some simple lectures in the countries that had already obtained their cuisines and instill some basic knowledge of Chinese cuisine in them. He could subtly influence everyone to have a general concept of Chinese cuisine, which would be helpful for the promotion of Chinese cuisines in the future.
“It seems like I still have a long way to go. I need to continue working hard.” Yuan Zhou said.
Then, he closed his eyes and began to sort out his gains from his trip to Singapore.
The plane took off smoothly and streaked across the night sky. It bid farewell to the brightly lit Singapore and slowly flew in the direction of China’s Rong city.
The pitch-black night sky was dotted with bright stars that blinked like fireflies. They flickered, giving the night a bit of mystery.
After a four-and-a-half-hour journey, it was already 12:30 at night when the plane landed. Although it was already late at night, many places in Chengdu were still bustling with activity. The first place was definitely the airport.
The number of passengers coming and going did not decrease much because of the late night.
Although Yuan Zhou didn’t tell Yin ya that he was coming back today and didn’t want her to pick him up, as it was already very late and he was afraid of delaying her sleep time, he still saw Yin ya waiting in the waiting area as soon as he walked out of the station.
She stood there gracefully and looked pretty and lovely. Yin ya had sharp eyes and saw Yuan Zhou’s figure the moment he appeared.
“Blockhead, here.” Yin ya slightly waved her hand to signal him.
“Xiao Ya, you’ve waited for a long time. Let’s go back and make you something delicious.” Yuan Zhou quickened his steps and arrived in front of Yin ya.
He didn’t even ask why Yin ya came to the airport to pick him up. Right now, all these things were not as important as going back as soon as possible.
“Alright, let’s go.” Yin ya leaned against Yuan Zhou’s side, looking like a little bird leaning against a man.
Yuan Zhou put his arm around Yin ya’s shoulder and carried the two boxes with the other hand while walking outside calmly.
Fortunately, Yuan Zhou had been actively training his arm strength. Otherwise, he might not have been able to hold Yin ya’s hand.
It was already late at night. The car drove steadily and quickly and soon arrived at Taoxi road, where the restaurant was located. Because Yin ya lived in the restaurant, he didn’t need to send her back, which was very convenient.
After saying goodbye to the alert mother and son, Yuan Zhou and Yin ya returned to the restaurant. Without saying much, they washed up and went to bed quickly.
Of course, Yuan Zhou’s brand supper was served before he went to bed. This time, it was the simple egg noodles, which was fast, convenient and delicious.
The lights of master chef Restaurant turned on and off very quickly, but some people also saw it.
“Brother hai, since boss Yuan is back, let’s go to bed quickly. Otherwise, we won’t be able to get the first place if we don’t get up tomorrow morning.” Mao Xiong said while looking at Wu Hai who was still lying by the window.
“You’re right, Fat Bear, let’s sleep. ” Wu Hai said.
That’s right. Ever since he ate the simple lunch, Wu Hai had been lying by the window, waiting to see if Yuan Zhou would come back. It seemed that only when Yuan Zhou came back would he be able to go to sleep with a peace of mind.
Although he had only been hungry for three days and the Beast wouldn’t die from hunger, the feeling of hunger was still very uncomfortable. Therefore, Wu Hai was very active.
After a short period of liveliness, Taoxi road returned to its usual tranquility. The night gradually darkened, and the dark color spread to the sky.
Then, it slowly turned from thick to light. The sky turned from pure black to gray and white. Then, it slowly changed again. It was dawn.
Although he went to bed quite late, Yuan Zhou’s biological clock still reminded him to get up in time. He got off the bed quietly in case he disturbed Yin ya who was still sleeping soundly. Although he felt a little more restrained and inconvenient than his usual reckless actions, Yuan Zhou was very willing to take responsibility for such a trouble.
When he finished washing up and went out for a jog, he was immediately surrounded by the enthusiastic neighbors.
Of course, everyone knew what they should do. They didn’t block Yuan Zhou’s running route, but just took two steps in the direction of his running and asked about Yuan Zhou’s situation outside. After hearing that everything was fine, they dispersed slowly in case they disturbed Yuan Zhou’s time.
They could be said to be decent neighbors.
“Boss, two bowls of instant noodles on the bill.” Yuan Zhou shouted as usual when he jogged past the instant noodle restaurant.
“OK, boss Yuan.” The boss replied loudly, appearing to have a tacit understanding.
Ever since Yuan Zhou got engaged, he hadn’t eaten noodles in the noodle restaurant because he had to make breakfast for Yin ya. However, he would remember the instant noodles every day. It was a habit.
Of course, Yuan Zhou was eating breakfast in his restaurant every day now. He didn’t eat the 100 servings of breakfast prepared for the customers, but he had already decided what to eat for Yin ya every day. Therefore, he just ate together with her.
Regardless of whether Yuan Zhou ate in the restaurant or not, there were 100 servings. If one didn’t pay special attention, one wouldn’t notice it. However, it was hard to say for sure today, because Hou Liang had come for breakfast.
