Jiang Yang booked a plane ticket to Shanghai as soon as he got back to the hotel. While waiting for the plane at the airport, he took out his computer and typed something on it.
"Um, this should be more or less the same." Jiang Yang wrote while thinking seriously.
The way Jiang Yang was thinking was no less serious than when he took the college entrance examination.
Naturally, Yuan Zhou and Engineer Cheng didn't know about Jiang Yang's situation. After lunch time ended, all the customers left, including Zhou Jia, but Engineer Cheng still didn't leave.
"What's wrong?" Yuan Zhou looked at Engineer Cheng and asked.
Engineer Cheng hesitated for quite a while. When he heard Yuan Zhou's question, he hesitated and didn't say anything.
"If you have something to say, say it. If not, go back to your own home." Yuan Zhou talked to Engineer Cheng more and more intimately now.
After all, Yuan Zhou had now regarded Engineer Cheng as half an apprentice. Naturally, he was more intimate and casual with him. Even his expression was quite natural and not as solemn as before.
"Yes," Engineer Cheng said primly.
"Um, say it," Yuan Zhou nodded and then said.
"Master Yuan, do you want to take an apprentice now?" Engineer Cheng asked cautiously.
As soon as the question was asked, Yuan Zhou didn't answer immediately. Instead, he fell silent for a while.
"Engineer Cheng still wants to take me as his apprentice? Although I have superb skills and a handsome face, he only lacks the status of an apprentice now. It's not impossible to take him as an apprentice, "Yuan Zhou looked at Engineer Cheng and thought to himself.
"After all, I'm a man with a cuisine in my hands. It's not impossible to take him as an apprentice. But speaking of which, why haven't there been any beautiful female apprentices coming to me? Isn't that how it is written in the novels?" Yuan Zhou's face was stiff and this thought suddenly flashed across his mind.
"It's good to have a beautiful female apprentice. I should be a good teacher." Yuan Zhou continued thinking expressionlessly.
Yuan Zhou thought of the beautiful female apprentice from whether to give Engineer Cheng the status of an engineer or not. Therefore, he kept silent and didn't answer. However, Engineer Cheng panicked and said hurriedly.
"It's like this, Master Yuan. I'm just asking," said Master Cheng.
"Um, do you still want to be my apprentice?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"Yes, Master Yuan." When Master Cheng heard that, he immediately nodded his head.
"I'm very satisfied with your recent performance. If you have any questions, you can ask me during non-business hours," Yuan Zhou said.
Master Cheng was overjoyed. When he was about to kneel down and formally acknowledge Yuan Zhou as his master, Yuan Zhou continued.
"Wait. There's no hurry to be an apprentice. After all, learning craftsmanship is not a trivial matter." Yuan Zhou stopped Engineer Cheng in time.
"I'll listen to you, Master Yuan." Engineer Cheng nodded his head and said respectfully.
"Um. You can ask me directly if you don't understand." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then instructed.
"Thank you, Master Yuan. Thank you." Engineer Cheng said gratefully.
"Go." Standing in the kitchen, Yuan Zhou waved his hand at the door, signaling to Master Cheng that he could leave now. He was dressed in a traditional Han Chinese attire.
Yuan Zhou's manner was quite like that of an expert.
"I'm leaving now. See you in the evening, Master Yuan." Engineer Cheng nodded his head and walked out of the door slowly. Only then did he roll up his sleeves happily and walked quickly out of the street, preparing to go home and tell his wife the good news.
"It's still too early to accept an apprentice." Looking at Engineer Cheng walking away, Yuan Zhou murmured.
That's right. After considering for quite a while, Yuan Zhou still didn't agree to accept him as an apprentice.
"Although I have a new cuisine now, the evaluation is merely an Intermediate Chef. It's still too early for me to become a Master Chef." Yuan Zhou looked at the two shining words of "Intermediate" on the system and became quite spirited.
That's right. In Yuan Zhou's opinion, he would become a Master Chef one day.
"I wonder how delicious the dishes cooked by myself will be after I become a Master Chef. Will it be so delicious that I can't help but eat my own hand?" Thinking of that, Yuan Zhou reached out his hand and had a look.
"Besides, the system also said there are glowing ingredients. I really want to see it." Yuan Zhou was full of longing and expectation for the last introduction of the system.
"Okay. I'll challenge the carving of the Along the River During the Qingming Festival in the afternoon." Yuan Zhou cleaned up the kitchen energetically.
While cleaning up the kitchen, Yuan Zhou asked the system.
"System, with my current reputation and culinary skills, I should be able to upgrade the title, right?" Yuan Zhou asked.
The system displayed, "Host, you are now the No. 1 Famous Chef in Sichuan Province and your culinary skills are an intermediate chef."
"Er …" Yuan Zhou was speechless for a while.
"Anyhow, I'm a person who is often interviewed by magazines. How can I be famous in Sichuan Province?" Yuan Zhou continued asking.
The system displayed, "Host, you are the No. 1 Famous Chef in Sichuan Province."
"Okay. No. 1 Famous Chef in Sichuan Province. What about the others? I guess there are some famous chefs all over the country. After all, I took part in the Sino-Japanese Chef Exchange Meeting last year. "Yuan Zhou corrected himself according to the system.
The system displayed, "Yes. Host, you took part in the Sino-Japanese Chef Exchange Meeting as a representative of the outstanding chefs of Sichuan Province."
"Okay. Let's not talk about my reputation and I'm not a person who is obsessed with fame and fortune. Let's talk about culinary skills. I'm now a man who has mastered an entire cuisine. Why am I still an intermediate chef?" Yuan Zhou said righteously.
"System, can you re-evaluate me and complete the Jiangsu Cuisine? After all, I already have the Jin 'ling Cuisine, right?" Yuan Zhou brought out his purpose.
Not waiting for the system to answer, Yuan Zhou continued saying, "I've already mastered Sichuan Cuisine. It's time for me to master the Jiangsu Cuisine. Don't think that I'm a studious person. After all, I've always been humble and diligent."
Speaking of shamelessness, Yuan Zhou had never been afraid of anyone in front of the system.
The system displayed, "The evaluation is completed. The host is now an intermediate chef. Host, please work hard to improve your culinary skills."
"That's too sloppy." Yuan Zhou put away the bowls and chopsticks and walked upstairs.
The system displayed, "This evaluation is true and effective. Moreover, it's rigorous and serious."
"No, it's not. I haven't exerted my culinary skills yet." Yuan Zhou raised his hand and said confidently.
After Yuan Zhou said that, the system didn't give any response even after a long while.
"The power is cut off again?" Yuan Zhou was speechless.
"Tsk-tsk. The reward is really not that easy to get." Yuan Zhou took a bath and changed his clothes again before going downstairs.
Every time he finished his business, Yuan Zhou would wash up and change his clothes before starting the next business.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou was now a man who loved cleanliness and took a bath three times a day.
"It's really hard to find a man who has such good culinary skills and loves cleanliness." Yuan Zhou stood in front of the mirror and said with a taut face before going downstairs.
"Dadada step." Having finished his daily narcissism, Yuan Zhou walked downstairs with steady steps.
When he went downstairs, Yuan Zhou still had his short hair slightly damp and looked quite spirited. He was dressed in a suit of clothes. The upper garment was light gray and the cuffs and collar were embroidered with silver lotus patterns. The lower garment was black and the lower hem was also embroidered with silver lotus patterns.
As he had been wearing the Han costume for a long period of time and exercising, Yuan Zhou now had a straight back, which made him appear very tall. Besides, he had a calm and reserved temperament.
As soon as Yuan Zhou went out of the door, a man in a well-ironed suit rushed to Yuan Zhou immediately.
