Chapter 1322: Two masters come to visit

Ruan Xiaoqings heart skipped a beat because when Mr. Qian said this, there was no sadness on his face, only gentleness and encouragement.

Yes. This time, the lady looked at master Qians half-white hair that didnt match his age and his haggardness. Her eyes turned red and she nodded heavily.

Go, goodbye. After saying that, master Qian drove away.

Some people could see the darkness, but they could still see the light.

After Wu Hai finished eating the steamed buns, Yuan Zhou left him with a sentence that this was the new breakfast that would be served in a few days. Then, he directly closed the door and went upstairs.

After eating the steamed bun, Wu Hai also went back to his art studio jubilantly and decided to name the oil painting as steamed bun.

Its alright, its not too late. It was rare that Yuan Zhou didnt go to wash his face and brush his teeth directly. Instead, he sat at the desk and muttered to himself before being in a daze.

After being in a daze for a while, Yuan Zhou stood up again and went to wash up.

After was.h.i.+ng up, Yuan Zhou directly lay down and went to sleep. It was rare for Yuan Zhou to have a dream again.

/

Obviously, the dream wasnt that wonderful. As a result, Yuan Zhou didnt feel drowsy at all after he got up. He just frowned and stared at himself in the mirror for a long time before he went downstairs for a run.

Yuan Zhou was in low spirits because of the nightmare. Fortunately, he could discard everything when cooking. Therefore, he recovered after the breakfast time was over.

On the other side, there were people, or rather, several people, who were in deep trouble.

The reason was because of a parcel. A parcel that Yuan Zhou had asked Zhou s.h.i.+jie to distribute on his behalf.

The recipient of the package was Collin. Thats right. Before Collin left, he gave Yuan Zhou the fermented chili he made himself. Yuan Zhous return gift was also the aged fermented chili made by him, the kind without any salt.

In the beginning, Zhou s.h.i.+jie still wanted to ask why Yuan Zhou didnt mail it himself. But before he could even ask, he understood.

At that time, Zhou s.h.i.+jie directly ridiculed that Colin was a stingy old man.

Exactly. After thinking for a while, Zhou s.h.i.+jie immediately understood the reason why Collin asked him to pa.s.s it to Yuan Zhou instead of him. And Yuan Zhou had obviously understood Collins intention by doing so.

Only then did Zhou s.h.i.+jie start to curse. At that time, he was mostly complaining. If Yuan Zhou could benefit from it, he would be quite willing to be a temporary postman.

The parcel that Zhou s.h.i.+jie had delivered had now arrived at Colins restaurant.

Yes, Colin had his own restaurant, but he was no longer the head chef. The head chef was now his apprentice, but he would go to the restaurant every day.

Naturally, Zhou s.h.i.+jie knew about this situation. Therefore, he directly sent the parcel to the restaurant.

It was still quite early, so the head chef and sous-chef would not even have the chance to prepare the dishes. However, they were all present now and began to prepare the ingredients seriously with Colin as the supervisor.

This situation had started since Colin returned from Chengdu.

In other words, Colins disciples and Grand-disciples had been living like this for half a month.

Even the head chef, Colins son, Kosen, could not stand such a high-pressure study, let alone the sous-chefs. However, he gritted his teeth and persevered. The others did not dare to complain, but when they saw the gentle expression on Colins face when he received the package, they could not help but sigh in relief.

Head chef ke, Whats this? Kosen asked carefully. Even the way he addressed her was extremely formal.

What is it? its something that you cant even hope to obtain right now. Colins gentle expression instantly turned cold.

Uh Kosen was instantly rendered speechless and could only shut his mouth.

Stupid. Put down what youre doing and take a look at this rotten chili. After youre done, make me a bottle of something better than this. Otherwise, youd better hurry up and practice your cooking skills. Dont be lazy. Collin pointed at the pickled chilies that had just been taken out and said seriously.

Kosen and the other chefs in the kitchen looked at each other and then spoke with confidence.

Thats easy. Head chef ke, dont worry. Well definitely do well. Kosen patted his chest and promised.

They couldnt be blamed for being so confident. The master in front of them was one of the few people at the top of the pyramid of Guizhou cuisine. Their own standards were also very high. It was easy for them to make what they were good at and the basic pickled chilies.

Its good that its easy. You know the consequences if you cant do it. Colin didnt remind him, but only emphasized the severity of the consequences.

Dont worry, head chef ke, The people in the kitchen replied in unison.

Hmph, he snorted. Colin snorted coldly and turned to leave. When he reached the door, he said,look at this rotten chili for yourself. Dont be lazy.

After saying that, Colin left the kitchen with his hands behind his back and went straight to his own small kitchen.

This kid is not only talented but also sensible. Hes just too young. Collin couldnt help sighing when he thought of Yuan Zhou.

He was not too young, but his cooking skills were so good at such a young age. Collin felt that he had been a living dog in his previous years.

I have to think about what to give him to win back. Colin looked at his clean and complete kitchen and thought to himself.

Collin was thinking about how to show off his culinary skills and also communicate with Yuan Zhou.

On the other side, Liu Xi and Liu Jian, who were standing at the door of Yuan Zhous restaurant, didnt feel so conflicted. They looked at Yuan Zhou who was busy in the kitchen and then walked in directly.

Among them, Liu Xi was the big boss of the chefs a.s.sociation of your province, the one who felt Yuan Zhou had a promising future.

The restaurant is not open for business yet. Its not lunchtime yet. Please come back for lunch. While was.h.i.+ng the dishes, Yuan Zhou said that without even raising his head.

You must be chef little Yuan. Liu Xi and Liu Jian asked after they sized up Yuan Zhou seriously.

Its me. Yuan Zhou nodded his head and raised his head.

The person standing in front of him had a solemn expression and seemed to be even more difficult to get along with than Colin. However, when he looked at Yuan Zhou, his expression was very gentle.

When he stood, his back was slightly bent, and he looked to be in his sixties. His hair was white and cut very short, and his clothes and sleeves were especially clean.

The other one looked younger, but dressed similarly. Even his appearance was similar to the first person who spoke.

I didnt introduce myself, nor did I tell you in advance before coming here. I hope I didnt disturb you while youre cooking, little head chef Yuan. Liu Xi was the first to speak and said seriously.

I wonder what business the two of you have here? Yuan Zhou asked.

Well, Im Liu Xi from your provinces chefs a.s.sociation. This is my younger brother. Hes also a chef, but he studied Yunnan cuisine. Liu Xi continued with his introductions.

The two of us have long heard about head chef Yuans culinary skills. We cant just sit back and do nothing when it comes to learning a craft. Thats why we took the liberty to come here and have a chat with you, head chef Yuan. This time, it was Liu Xis younger brother, Liu Jian, who spoke.

I heard that little boss Yuan is good at Sichuan cuisine, Guizhou cuisine, and Yunnan cuisine. Thats why I came here directly. Liu Xi said.

Yes. You can arrange the time for us. I hope you dont mind us coming uninvited. Liu Jian continued.

Liu Jian and Liu Xi were very apologetic when they said this. They were indeed a little sorry for their presumptuousness.

Yuan Zhou really didnt mind. As a master who offered himself to him, he directly said,No, I dont mind. Cooking really cant be done behind closed doors. It needs more communication.
