After breakfast time, Yuan Zhou habitually sat at the shady spot at the entrance and began to practice sculpting.
Practicing hard every day was a must for Yuan Zhou. The tourists and diners waiting for lunch peeked at Yuan Zhou from time to time out of curiosity and admiration, but none of them dared to disturb him.
Firstly, when traveling to Chengdu, all the guides stated that one could see Yuan Zhou at Taoxi Road, but one was not allowed to disturb Yuan Zhou.
Secondly, the people from the queuing committee around were not to be trifled with. Once someone tried to disturb him, they would stop him in a timely manner in a low voice.
Of course, they wouldn't care about those people who were acquainted with Yuan Zhou.
For example, Engineer Cheng who came in a hurry.
"Master," Engineer Cheng said when he saw Yuan Zhou stop.
"Um? Have you finished your homework? "Yuan Zhou asked habitually.
Engineer Cheng instantly felt his scalp tighten and his hand that was holding the box tightened involuntarily. No matter how many times he heard that, the pressure on his body didn't decrease at all.
"No, I'm here to deliver the recipe to you. My homework is still being perfected. I'm definitely not slacking off," Engineer Cheng said seriously.
"That's good." Yuan Zhou nodded and didn't say anything else.
"Master, look, this is the recipe that the four brats forced on me. Please have a look." Engineer Cheng handed the box to him and said flatteringly. He had told this matter to Yuan Zhou previously and he would deliver it to him immediately after receiving it.
"Okay, I've received it." Yuan Zhou nodded and turned his head to look at the teahouse not far away.
Hao Cheng, Huang Fei, Liu Li and Wang Qiang were looking at him nervously.
When they saw Yuan Zhou nod to them, they stood up immediately and bowed to Yuan Zhou.
Hao Cheng and the other three had really put in a lot of effort. It had only been a day since Engineer Cheng had "chatted" with them privately, and now Gu Fang had fallen into Engineer Cheng's hands.
For something as precious as an ancient recipe, even if it was a photocopy, it couldn't be delivered by express delivery. Therefore, it had to be delivered by "human delivery."
"See, I didn't lie to you. They were just being polite. I told you that you wouldn't mind," Engineer Cheng said immediately.
"Okay, got it." Yuan Zhou's face was solemn, but he was laughing in his heart. This scene seemed familiar.
After all, it was rare for Master Cheng to act so shamelessly. It was because he really regarded Yuan Zhou as his senior teacher that he behaved like that.
Although their ages were somewhat reversed, the scene was still quite harmonious.
"Finish it as soon as possible and send it over." Yuan Zhou instructed and then sent Engineer Cheng away.
"Yes, master. Don't worry. I will definitely do a better job this time." Engineer Cheng nodded his head and answered earnestly.
"Um. Go ahead." Yuan Zhou waved his hand.
"Thank you, master." Engineer Cheng nodded his head and took a few steps back before he turned around and left.
As soon as Engineer Cheng left, Yuan Zhou didn't put away the recipe immediately. Instead, he finished carving the Seven Fairies in his hands carefully and put them away. Then, he turned around and returned to the restaurant with the box.
That's right. Recently, Yuan Zhou had been carving the Seven Fairies because Yin Ya said unintentionally that she wanted to see if the Seven Fairies in the myths were more beautiful than the paintings of court ladies.
After he returned to the restaurant, Yuan Zhou went upstairs with the box.
Yuan Zhou didn't open the box until he went upstairs to his room.
The box was made of slightly expensive lacquered wood. It had a glossy reddish-brown color and was as long as two palms. It was rectangular with some simple carvings of flowers, birds, fishes, and insects on it. It looked quite exquisite.
If he didn't open it, others would think that it was a girl's jewelry.
The design of the hasp made it easy to open. There were four thin thread-bound books lying inside. They seemed to be from modern times and the paper was a little yellowed. However, each book had a different style.
"You actually sent me the original ancient book?" Yuan Zhou was a little surprised.
That's right. Yuan Zhou thought it would be a hand-written recipe, but he didn't expect it to be an original ancient book.
"How thoughtful." Yuan Zhou took out the book carefully and flipped through it.
Due to the urgency of the time, Yuan Zhou didn't intend to read it carefully. At that time, the system suddenly jumped out.
[Triggered Mission] Host, please collect all ten ancient recipe recipes. (Incomplete)
[Mission Progress] 7/10
(Mission Progress: Our goal is ten ancient recipe recipes. Host, please continue to work hard. Come on, young man.)
[Mission Reward] Ten ancient recipe recipes. (Incomplete)
(Reward Tips: Apart from the recipe, there are also the personal notes of the creator of the dish and the ingredients corresponding to the dish. Also, the personal notes of the creator who collected the recipe. What are you waiting for with such a generous reward? Go and complete the mission, young man.)
"Long time no see, system." Yuan Zhou greeted the system amiably. Indeed, it had been a long time since he last saw the system.
However, in the face of Yuan Zhou's sudden amiability, the system didn't respond for a long time. It was unknown whether it was scared of Yuan Zhou's trick or it was a little stiff after being silent for a long time.
Fortunately, Yuan Zhou was never a stingy person. He didn't care whether the system replied to him or not. He stroked his chin and said, "It seems that I have to find some time to complete the mission. After all, the reward is quite attractive."
The system displayed, "Host, please work hard to complete the mission."
"Huh? System, you are still there? "Yuan Zhou said in surprise.
However, the system disappeared again after sending out this encouraging sentence.
Yuan Zhou looked at himself in the mirror and muttered to himself, "It might be because I'm too handsome recently. It's said that a man in love is the most handsome. Even the system is a little embarrassed to look at me directly."
While muttering such words, Yuan Zhou picked up his toiletries and went to wash up. After all, he was going to prepare the ingredients for lunch soon.
Soon, it was lunchtime in Yuanzhou shop. At this time, there were waves of customers coming to the teahouse one after another. It was the most crowded time.
That was because the rules of the Queuing Committee forbade customers who were beyond the reception area to gather at the entrance of Yuanzhou shop.
That also effectively avoided the congestion on the whole street. However, as Yuan Zhou became more and more famous, more and more people came to watch the business of Yuanzhou shop and more and more people tried to line up.
Therefore, the popularity of the teahouse came into being.
Of course, it also led to the popularity of the surrounding shops. After all, this was a place where people gathered.
That was also the reason why there was only one homestay on Taoxi Road. It was because it was more profitable to open other shops.
Soon, as Zhou Jia announced the start of lunchtime, the first 16 customers swarmed into the restaurant.
Standing in the kitchen, Yuan Zhou nodded slightly to the customers who entered the restaurant, "Welcome."
Yuan Zhou was the same as Yuan Zhou on the first day he opened the restaurant. He didn't change at all.
Actually, it couldn't be said that he didn't change at all. There were some changes. At the beginning, he was a little perturbed, but now, he was confident, calm, and skillful in controlling his facial paralysis.
Soon, the customers who entered the restaurant began to order dishes. Hao Cheng and the other three people were no exception.
As the organizer, Hao Cheng was very graceful. Every time, he would let the other three people order first and then he would order last.
"Give me a serving of Stir-Fried Water Bamboo Shoots and a serving of Oil Noodles and Stuffed Pork," Hao Cheng said.
"Do you need rice?" Zhou Jia asked habitually.
"One bowl, please." Hao Cheng considered for a second and then said.
"Okay. Please pay the bill first. The dishes will be served shortly," Zhou Jia said.
"I have transferred the money." Hao Cheng took out his phone and showed the transfer record to Zhou Jia.
"One moment, please." After saying that, Zhou Jia left.
At that time, Hao Cheng turned his head and explained, "The soup of the Oil Noodles and Stuffed Pork goes well with rice. You can also order some rice."
Hao Cheng was explaining why he ordered rice. After all, they had agreed at the beginning that they would eat vegetables instead of rice.
However, after Huang Fei and the other two people listened to Hao Cheng's explanation, they all ordered a bowl of rice one by one.
"I wonder how delicious this Wuxi Dish will be cooked by Boss Yuan." Hao Cheng was looking forward to it secretly.
Of course, he was most looking forward to one of the ingredients of the Oil Noodles and Stuffed Pork. He wanted to know what kind of ingredient Yuan Zhou would use.
