The green taxi drove steadily on the road. Yuan Zhou closed his eyes slightly. He looked like he was resting, but in fact, he was checking the mission.
[Hidden Mission] Make a complete set of wooden tableware for a vegetarian banquet that conforms to the system's standard.
(Mission tips: As a future Master Chef, it's necessary to have your own aesthetic sense. With the guidance of the master, I hope the host can make a set of wooden tableware for a vegetarian banquet within a month.)
[Mission Reward] Proficiency in Vegetarian Dishes
(Reward tips: Young man, just like how humans are classified into male and female, delicacies are also roughly classified into two categories: vegetarian and meat. Facing such a great reward, work hard, young man.)
Yuan Zhou stared at the name of the young man in his mind for a long time and then said, "System, you also read 100,000 corny jokes?"
The system displayed, "Keep up with the times and increase my understanding."
"So to speak, your original body is a Time Chicken?" Yuan Zhou probed without leaving any trace.
The system displayed, "I'm just a system."
"Oh." Yuan Zhou said coldly, "Then don't use such a tone. Be normal. You can be a little comrade."
Yuan Zhou resisted the urge to hold his forehead and said speechlessly.
This time, the system didn't say anything. Then, Yuan Zhou carefully checked the reward and mission of the system from beginning to end.
"Wooden tableware? It seems to have something to do with the apprenticeship just now, "Yuan Zhou thought to himself.
Speaking of which, Carpenter Lian was very happy that Yuan Zhou was apprenticed to a master carpenter. As far as he knew, some famous chefs all had their own sideline.
For example, Zhang Yan was actually an excellent nutritionist and was internationally famous.
As for Zhou Shijie, he had his own tableware brand, all of which were designed by him.
As a famous chef, taste wasn't the only thing that mattered. Color, fragrance, taste, meaning, shape, and nourishment were all very important.
Nourishment meant knowing the compatibility of food. Sometimes, it was similar to traditional Chinese medicine. There was an old Chinese saying that nourishment with food was better than nourishment with medicine.
On the other hand, the chef must also have a deep understanding of aesthetics. For example, Yuan Zhou's disciple, Engineer Cheng, had his own understanding of aesthetics.
The shape was the shape of the food, and the entire plate presentation was united. Sometimes, when one couldn't find a plate that suited one's dish on the market, it was necessary to design one.
Therefore, Zhou Shijie had a few of his own custom-made plates.
Now, the system obviously wanted Yuan Zhou to design his own plates and cutlery for the vegetarian banquet, and also limited the material used to be wood.
In that case, this mission clearly had something to do with the apprenticeship.
"System, what are your standards?" Yuan Zhou went straight to the heart of the problem.
The system displayed, "Host, you'll know when you do it."
"That can't be right. Can't I try the reward after leveling up?" Yuan Zhou suddenly thought of this privilege after leveling up.
The system displayed, "Yes."
"Then can I taste the vegetarian reward?" Yuan Zhou asked secretly in his heart.
Yuan Zhou had a good plan. He didn't directly ask what the vegetarian reward included, but directly spoke with his level. He wanted to check the content of the reward by tasting it first.
The system displayed, "The reward is complicated and can provide three dishes for tasting."
"Only three? Since you said the reward is so much, you should give me more to taste, right? "Yuan Zhou said.
The system displayed, "The system will select the three dishes by itself and then invite the host to taste them."
"Do you know how to do that?" Yuan Zhou asked with puzzlement.
The system displayed, "When the system selects the dishes, the host will be invited to watch together. I guarantee it will be fair and open."
"Ok. So be it. But you still haven't told me what your standards are." Yuan Zhou changed the next question.
"After all, it's a mission. In order to guarantee the fairness and open, I naturally have to announce your standards first, right?" Before the system answered, Yuan Zhou immediately counterattacked.
The system displayed, "Take the tableware provided by the system as the standard."
"I see." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and thought for a while.
Yuan Zhou thought about his level of carpentry and then thought about his own speed of improvement. Only after he had a rough idea did he start to look at the reward seriously.
"Proficient in vegetarian food? What's the calculation of the vegetarian food? "Yuan Zhou slightly knitted his brows.
The system displayed, "The vegetarian food cooked with a vegetarian stove, vegetarian oil and no trace of meat or fish in the ingredients is vegetarian food."
"So it's vegetarian food?" Yuan Zhou asked with puzzlement.
The system displayed, "It's basically the same. The specific differences will be known when the host receives the reward."
The system knew that Yuan Zhou would ask different questions and thus directly blocked him.
Soon, Yuan Zhou grasped another key point, the vegetarian stove. Obviously, there wasn't such a stove in Yuan Zhou's current place.
His current stove indeed had a special pot and stove for stir-frying vegetarian dishes, but it was indeed different from the vegetarian food. After all, some vegetarian dishes had to be cooked with lard to be more delicious. How could it be regarded as vegetarian food?
"System, I don't think there's room for another stove in my restaurant now." Yuan Zhou said earnestly.
The system displayed, "Host, don't worry about that. Please complete the mission as soon as possible."
"It seems that you have a solution." Yuan Zhou shrugged and didn't dwell on this problem.
However, he was quite curious about how many kinds of vegetarian food there were. If it was like what was described in the reward description, wouldn't it mean that he could cook all the vegetarian dishes after receiving the reward?
"If there's this vegetarian food reward, will the vegetarian dishes of other cuisines also be included?" Yuan Zhou asked.
The system displayed, "No. There's an essential difference between the two. Host, don't worry."
"Alright." Yuan Zhou shrugged. It seemed that he wouldn't be able to take advantage of the system.
"Here we are at Taoxi Road." The driver's voice sounded in Yuan Zhou's ears.
"Okay. Thank you." Yuan Zhou opened his eyes and immediately took out money to pay the bill. Then, he walked back to his restaurant.
After returning to his restaurant, Yuan Zhou washed up and began to prepare the ingredients for dinner. He was very busy and didn't stop at all.
On the other hand, Carpenter Lian's restaurant was very lively. Because of Zhou Shijie's urging of the driver, the thirty-minute journey was completed in fifteen minutes. As soon as he got off the car, Zhou Shijie picked up his forty-meter-long broadsword, no, it was a kitchen knife, and started to chase after Carpenter Lian and hack him.
Judging from his furious look, it was obvious that he wouldn't stop until he hacked Carpenter Lian to death today.
More importantly, Carpenter Lian wasn't someone who would let others hack him. Not only did he run fast, he even had the time to talk, "Old Zhou, just give up. Yuan has already acknowledged me as his master. There's nothing for you to do in the future."
It was obvious that Carpenter Lian wouldn't stop until he angered Zhou Shijie to death. However, he didn't tell Zhou Shijie that although Yuan Zhou had acknowledged him as his master, he wouldn't give up on his culinary skills.
The two old men, whose ages added up to more than a hundred years old, chased each other like chickens flying and dogs jumping. It made people not know whether to laugh or cry. However, no one dared to stop them.
