2541 The matter of tears of joy
Time passed by very quickly today. They hadn’t even discussed a few topics when they heard the familiar ringtone. It was Yuan Zhou’s phone.
Having communicated with Yuan Zhou several times, Yang Wei knew that it was time for Yuan Zhou to prepare for business. As expected, he heard Yuan Zhou say that soon after.
“I’m sorry, head chef yang. It’s time to prepare the ingredients for lunch. Let’s call it a day. We’ll arrange a time next time. ” Yuan Zhou said apologetically.
Due to the reward of the Shanghai cuisine, Yuan Zhou had already thoroughly tasted the Shanghai cuisine. During the exchange with Yang Wei today, he had also learned some of his experiences. Cooking was never something that could be discussed on paper. Therefore, he was very happy to exchange knowledge with Yang Wei and the other Masters.
“We are the ones who have wasted head chef Yuan’s time. This time, I will be staying in Chengdu for a longer time. I wonder if I can come back tomorrow morning to have another exchange with head chef Yuan.” Yang Wei said with a thick face.
He had made up his mind to communicate more with Yuan Zhou. He brought Gu Xun along with him, hoping that he could edify him and improve his level.
The premise of all this was that Yuan Zhou had the time to communicate with him many times recently. Even if Yang Wei was very eager, he wouldn’t rashly disrupt Yuan Zhou’s plan.
“Sure. Head chef yang and head chef Gu can come together tomorrow at the same time.” Yuan Zhou said quite straightforwardly.
The Shanghai cuisine was about to be served, so he could communicate with Yang Wei more and talk about the in-name disciples of the Shanghai cuisine. Although the Shanghai cuisine was small, it couldn’t be ignored.
Yang Wei, who had been staring at Yuan Zhou nervously and waiting for his answer, immediately heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Yuan Zhou’s affirmative answer,””No problem. I will definitely be there on time tomorrow. Thank you, head chef Yuan. Today’s surprise is really too big. It’s really an honor to have such delicious tea leaves and refreshments.”
He thought that the surprise Yuan Zhou mentioned before was the top-grade Jin Junmei and the tea and snacks prepared for him. This was really not small and was totally unexpected. At least, he had never tasted such delicious tea in his entire life.
How could it not taste good? it was provided by the system and carefully cultivated. It was a top-notch variety that only produced two catties a year. The tea was rich in fragrance and was an unimaginable taste.
With Yang Wei’s reminder, Yuan Zhou finally remembered that he hadn’t told them about the news of the Shanghai dishes being served at noon. Therefore, he immediately said,””It’s not about the tea leaves. The Shanghai dishes will be on the menu this afternoon. If head chef yang and head chef Gu are free, you can stay for lunch. “
Although this lunch required them to line up outside and pay for it, no one should be able to refuse.
However, after Yuan Zhou said that, Yang Wei and the other man didn’t have a good reaction.
First, they looked at each other. Then, Yang Wei stretched out his hand and pinched Gu Xun’s arm. When he saw Gu Xun grimacing in pain, he asked in a daze,””Does it hurt?”
Only after he received an affirmative answer did Yang Wei feel that it was a little real. However, he was still quite confused. He turned his head and looked at Yuan Zhou,””Head chef Yuan just said that the Shanghai dishes will be served on the menu. Is that what he meant? is it today?”
As he spoke, his voice became louder and louder, and he was even trembling a little. It was clear that he was very excited.
Yang Wei couldn’t be blamed for being excited. He had been looking forward to Yuan Zhou serving Shanghai cuisine for a long time. However, not all of the eight major cuisines had been served yet. As a cuisine of a municipality, he really didn’t dare to think about when Yuan Zhou would serve Shanghai cuisine.
He could only think of a way to save the country in a roundabout way. He would bring the most talented young generation to communicate with Yuan Zhou and see if they could learn something little by little in a way that would help them grow. It was already a matter that could make him cry with joy. However, the surprise came so suddenly that he was caught off guard.
“The Shanghai cuisine will be officially served at noon today. Your Shanghai cuisine Association can prepare for the matter of in-name disciples.”
Probably influenced by Yang Wei’s fluctuating mood, Yuan Zhou explained in more detail this time.
In fact, not only Yang Wei, Gu Xun, who had just recovered from being pinched, was also almost crying tears of joy. It was obvious that he would definitely be able to get a spot among the two in-name disciples. After all, he had already defeated all his opponents in order to get this spot. Even if he were to fight for it again, the result would definitely be the same. Gu Xun was still confident about this.
When they heard Yuan Zhou’s confirmation, the two of them almost danced with joy and cried with joy. It was not an exaggeration.
It was mainly because other cuisines were showing signs of prosperity under the leadership of Yuan Zhou’s in-name disciple while their Shanghai cuisines were on the decline. Now that they could take a turn around, they naturally couldn’t be too happy.
“Thank you, head chef Yuan.”
Thousands of words were condensed into such a sentence. Yang Wei and Gu Xun bowed deeply to Yuan Zhou and then left with a dreamy smile on their faces. Obviously, they had not come back to their senses yet.
“This is really …”
Yuan Zhou shook his head and watched the two of them walk out of the restaurant almost at the same time. He was a little speechless. However, he didn’t have much time left. He directly went upstairs to wash up and change his clothes before entering the kitchen to prepare the ingredients.
As he owned more and more cuisines, more cuisines needed to be reserved in advance. Therefore, the number of ingredients that Yuan Zhou needed to prepare before the official opening of the restaurant also gradually increased.
As soon as Yuan Zhou entered the kitchen, he began to prepare quickly. If Cheng zhaomei was here, she would have found that his speed had improved by leaps and bounds compared to when he was in the personal exhibition. She had no idea what his limit was.
While they were busy preparing the ingredients, Yang Wei and Gu Xun were completely awakened by the cold wind outside.
“Master yang, this in-name disciple quota should be for me and Jiao Hui, right?” Gu Xun asked.
The Jiao Hui He was talking about was the one he had defeated in the final assessment of the secret training. He was also one of the best among the younger generation of Shanghai cuisine. He was just slightly worse than him, which was why he had been allowed to come to the exchange.
However, compared to the other chefs, Gu Xun was naturally more convinced by Jiao Hui. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dragged him out at this time. Of course, only Gu Xun knew if he was going to be a shield or not.
Yang Wei thought for a moment and said,”indeed, there’s no need to compete again. Call Jiao Hui and inform him that if he can arrive today, then he can. If he can ‘t, then he must arrive tomorrow morning. In that case, I can let head chef Yuan take a look at you guys first. At the same time, I can also ask him when he can acknowledge you as his master.”
Only when the dust settled did Yang Wei feel at ease.
“Alright,” he said.
Gu Xun suppressed his joy and took out his phone to call Jiao Hui. Yang Wei also took out his phone to make a call. He definitely had to inform the big shots of the Shanghai cuisine Association about such a big event so that everyone could be happy together. At the same time, he could also tell them that he would be able to eat the Shanghai dishes personally cooked by head chef Yuan this afternoon. This had to be described in a long paragraph, otherwise, he would not be able to express his joy.
No matter what kind of thoughts and expressions the people in Shanghai had when they received the phone call from the two of them, at least Yang Wei and Gu Xun looked very happy.
