"Thank you, Boss Yuan, for your hospitality!" Manman stood up contentedly and thanked Yuan Zhou after she finished the cake.
"Hey, shouldn't you also thank the person who treated you to the cake?" Wang Hong tried his best to make his presence known.
Manman didn't want to talk to this kind of flatterer. She seriously considered the feasibility of giving Boss Yuan a cake.
"Ungrateful wretch." Wang Hong muttered and then thanked him earnestly, "Thank you, Boss Yuan. This red velvet cake is absolutely the best I've ever eaten."
The next sentence Wang Hong asked Manman's question. He asked, "When will it appear on the menu?"
"For other cakes, my craftsmanship isn't very mature yet. It may take some time," Yuan Zhou said.
If it could beat all the cake brands when it wasn't mature, what would it be like when it was mature?
Wang Hong didn't know and he didn't dare to ask.
As a sweets lover, Manman was looking forward to it very much. When the cake was on the menu, she would come to eat it every day. After all, Manman was already a rich woman now.
"Then I won't bother Boss Yuan anymore. I'm leaving now," Wang Hong said.
Man Man also said goodbye, and the two of them left together.
Yuan Zhou walked them to the door and watched them leave. Then he went back to the restaurant and continued thinking about the real perfume.
It wasn't only for the big gift bag of street snacks, but also for the real perfume. It really aroused Yuan Zhou's interest.
However, he still had no clue when it was time to prepare the ingredients for lunch.
Of course, this period of time wasn't wasted. Yuan Zhou made a plan.
It was very difficult to become fat at one time. Therefore, Yuan Zhou divided the analysis of the real perfume into three steps: flavor enhancement, chewiness enhancement, and transparent water.
As mentioned before, flavor enhancement was very easy. As long as the flavor of the condiments covered the flavor of the noodles, the goal could be achieved. Now, he had to solve the problem of making the noodles chewy.
Taoxi Road was bustling in the daytime. This specifically referred to the customers. It was very lively and bustling with people coming and going.
Yu Daoyi, who had few desires, came to line up at noon.
Apart from Zhou Shijie or others, Yu Daoyi seldom came to eat alone.
Firstly, the vegetarian lottery was very difficult. He only had one meal a month. Secondly, he didn't have much money. Ever since he ate vegetarian last time, he had made up his mind to save money.
Then … half a year passed. With perseverance, he finally saved enough money. Then, he took the little Taoist boy to draw the lottery. After three months, he finally won.
Of course, it wasn't today. It would be three days later. Today, Yu Daoyi was here because Wu Hai was treating. It was the Black Beast who had gotten Yu Daoyi's number from Zhou Shijie.
Hmm … Of course, there was a small story behind this. Yu Daoyi had a phone, but he didn't use it much, and it was always switched off or off all year round. In the end, it was Zhong Lili who informed him and paid for the phone before letting Daoyi turn it on.
Well … of course, there was a small story. Yu Daoyi had a mobile phone, but he didn't use it much. It was always turned off. Zhong Lili told him to turn it on after paying the bill.
Anyway, Zhong Lili didn't like Wuhai very much. It made sense. Anyone who climbed up and down for no reason would have feelings. Yu Daoyi and Wu Hai were not familiar with each other. At most, they could be considered acquaintances. But when he heard that Wu Hai was treating him, he immediately agreed without asking why.
Yu Daoyi and Wuhai weren't familiar. They were just acquaintances. But when he heard that Wuhai was treating him, he immediately agreed without asking why.
"You're finally here."
"Yes, I'm here."
"Empty stomach?"
"I didn't have breakfast."
"Good."
"Of course."
The strange conversation came from Yu Daoyi and Wuhai. When Yu Daoyi and Wuhai faced each other, their auras collided.
In the space, there seemed to be faint sparks exploding.
On one side was the overlord of Yuanzhou Shop. He was known as the divine beast of the shop. His Wu Style Vegetable Snatching Technique was unrivaled in Jianghu. Even Qin Xiaoyi and Gao Fan's Dual Poisons couldn't shake him.
Wuhai's score against Qin Xiaoyi and Gao Fan was one loss and 76 wins. The gap was obvious.
On the other side was the legendary Taoist Master Yu Daoyi. He had cultivated a state of mind like still water. His skill of Vegetable Snatching Technique was also one of the best in the shop.
"Thank you, Wu Jushi, for treating me. Although I'm not a glutton, I still miss my friends in the shop." Yu Daoyi didn't have a poker face. He had expressions of surprise, panic, and laughter. But no matter what, the look in his eyes didn't change.
"I've evolved the Wu Style Vegetable Snatching Technique into the Eight Style Vegetable Snatching Technique. Today, I'll let you know that there's only one sky in the field of vegetable snatching!" Wuhai said firmly.
Yu Daoyi's eyes flickered and he said, "I'm not snatching food. I never snatch food. I'm just helping to eat when the food is wasted on the plate."
"Hehe." Wu Hai sneered disdainfully. He was very clear that this Daoist priest was the same as him. Both of them were shameless for the sake of eating. Eh … no, since when did I, Great Wu Hai, have any sense of shame?
Wuhai said, "Stop pretending. You and I are both shameless."
Yu Daoyi said, "Wu Jushi, you're wrong. Although I also think that I'm shameless, I'm a Taoist priest and a Taoist Master. I still need a fig leaf. So, Wu Jushi, please call me Yu Daoyi with only half a face."
Wuhai thought for a while and nodded. "Okay."
"Thank you, Wu Jushi," Yu Daoyi thanked him seriously.
While the two big shots were talking, Zhou Xi was trembling behind them. Previously, at the vegetarian banquet, Zhou Xi had crammed in because he couldn't understand his idol's words.
Today, he was asked by Wuhai to record the "battle" because Wuhai wanted to preserve this historical moment.
Wuhai and Yu Daoyi were among the first customers. They entered the restaurant together.
"Taoist, can you eat meat?" Wu Hai asked.
Yu Daoyi said, "It's okay to eat meat once in a while."
There were many Taoist sects. Yu Daoyi's sect could eat meat once in a while.
"Okay, let's start." Wuhai asked, "How many dishes do you think are suitable?"
"How about ten dishes?" Yu Daoyi said after thinking about his appetite.
Wuhai nodded and felt that this was a good number. He said, "Ten dishes per person. That's good. Little Jia, order."
In the past, Wuhai would order meat, meat, meat, meat. Today, because of Yu Daoyi, he ordered meat, meat, and vegetables.
For this meal alone, Wu Hai paid 27,000 RMB. The Dongpo Pig Knuckle was 2080 RMB, and the Three Sets of Roast Duck was 3118 RMB, all of which were main dishes. Besides, Wu Hai would order a Herbal Tea Egg for every meal.
Zhou Jia had asked Wuhai why he ate an egg for every meal. Wuhai answered, "My sister told me that eating an egg every day will make me grow taller."
There were too many things to complain about. Zhou Jia didn't know what to say for a while. "Wuhai, you're 29 years old. Your bones must have stopped growing … and you're not eating a tea egg, are you?"
"What's wrong with a tea egg? Tea eggs have dignity too, "Wuhai said firmly." My sister wouldn't lie to me. "
Zhou Jia could only remain silent.
Back to the topic, Yuan Zhou was surprised when he heard the menu. Did the divine beast become a vegetarian? But when he saw Yu Daoyi, he understood.
But he was also surprised. Since when did Yu Daoyi and Wuhai become so close?
Dishes were brought out by Zhou Jia and placed on the table. There were ten plates on each side. The war had begun!
Why was it called "Eight Pounces for Food Snatching"? Pounces had the meaning of "attack" and "combo", but it was the literal meaning here.
Wuhai's chopsticks were like a ferocious beast, pouncing towards the plates. His hands were like shooting stars. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to defend against this.
But Yu Daoyi wasn't an ordinary person! He was a great enemy that Wuhai had personally confirmed. The moment Wuhai's chopsticks reached the twice cooked pork, Yu Daoyi swung his chopsticks and snatched away the evenly distributed meat.
"So fast." Wuhai didn't want to be outdone. He swung his chopsticks and the twice cooked pork fell.
However, Yu Daoyi was definitely not an easy opponent. The speed at which the meat fell onto the plate was very fast, and the time was very short. But Yu Daoyi was able to catch it midway. It was simply too fast.
The series of actions were completed in a few seconds. What surprised Wuhai was that he couldn't catch up to Yu Daoyi in terms of picking up the food.
But the "Eight Pounces for Food Snatching" wasn't that simple. Wuhai was going to use his full strength. Yu Daoyi stuffed the twice cooked pork into his mouth and ate a mouthful of rice.
Every piece of the twice cooked pork was of appropriate size. Moreover, it had reached the highest level of twice cooked pork, "light bulb shape." When eaten with white rice, it was quite delicious.
But in these few seconds, Wuhai had already eaten two chopsticks of duck meat, two chopsticks of pork shoulder, two chopsticks of Spicy Fish, and two chopsticks of Boiled Meat.
That's right, this was the reason why Wuhai dominated the world of food snatching. "It wasn't easy for you to snatch a chopstick of food, but Wuhai had already eaten eight chopsticks." The difference was too obvious.
Of course, the flashes of knives and swords on the table didn't affect other customers. The tacit rule of the restaurant was that no one should affect other customers while they were eating.
Zhou Xi ordered shredded chicken cold noodles and a bowl of mung bean porridge from the 100 Styles of Rice Cuisine. Porridge and cold noodles were the standard of summer.
Zhou Xi's main job was to record. Many other customers also looked at Wuhai and Yu Daoyi from time to time. After all, it was rare to see such an exciting scene where the competition for food snatching turned into an art.
"After the war …" Yu Daoyi's eyes actually became a little dull.
Wuhai stood up contentedly. Then, he patted Yu Daoyi and comforted him, "It's not shameful to lose to me. My condolences."
That's right. Wuhai won. Wuhai almost single-handedly snatched 13 out of the 20 dishes, beating Yu Daoyi by six.
The difference was too big!
Since he met Yu Daoyi at the vegetarian banquet last time, Wuhai had kept it in mind. But at that time, he didn't have the confidence to win.
When Wuhai's food-snatching skills improved and he perfected the Eight Failed Dishes Snatching, he invited Yu Daoyi today.
"What are you talking about, Mr. Wu? I can still do it. I don't feel happy or sad for others," Yu Daoyi said with a calm expression again.
Wuhai glanced at Yu Daoyi, "Really?"
"Of course it's a lie," Yu Daoyi said coolly. "My heart is filled with indignation, but in the eyes of outsiders, I'm still an expert. Therefore, I can't allow my public image to crumble." Yu Daoyi's voice was calm.
"Let's do it again next time. Hahaha," Wuhai was very happy.
Yu Daoyi said directly, "Okay."
Their conversation ended.
"Eaves Wu, how should I send the video to you?" Zhou Xi asked.
Wuhai thought for a while and gave Zhou Xi an email address.
"I'll send it to you when I get back," Zhou Xi said.
"Um, okay." Wuhai skipped to the art gallery. Then, he ate and digested his food. Then, he continued to eat in the evening.
Yu Daoyi also left and prepared to go back to the gymnasium. During the meal, he would compete with the children for food and practice.
After lunch, Shin Min, who was supposed to come in the evening, arrived earlier than usual. She stammered as if she had something to say.
"Just say it," said Yuan Zhou.
"Boss … I'm going to graduate soon. My teacher likes me very much. He will recommend me to a design studio after graduation … but it's very far from here. It's in Shanghai," Shin Min stammered. The more she spoke, the more embarrassed she became.
"That's good. Your teacher likes you, which means you're good enough. You must seize this opportunity," said Yuan Zhou immediately.
"But I'm very happy to work in this restaurant in Chengdu …"
Yuan Zhou interrupted Shin Min and said, "Originally, being a waitress was a part-time job when I was in school. Now that I've graduated, I must find a good job. I definitely can't let go of this opportunity."
The Kitchen God. Yuan Zhou had also asked the system about opening branches. But if the chef of The Kitchen God wasn't Yuan Zhou, would it still be The Kitchen God?
If he could open branches, he could be promoted from a clerk to a manager. But Yuan Zhou didn't know how to do two things at the same time, so the possibility of opening branches was very small. Therefore, there was no promotion channel in the restaurant.
In addition, Shin Min chose the fashion design major herself. In other words, she liked it very much. Moreover, Shin Min would occasionally show her design drafts to Yuan Zhou. In Yuan Zhou's opinion, she was very talented.
"Shanghai is too far away from Chengdu. If I go there for a long time, I can only see Boss Yuan, Sister Yin Ya, Brother Wu, and everyone else," the girl said, her eyes a little red.
Yuan Zhou passed her a piece of tissue and said, "You're so silly. This restaurant is mine. I have the property rights, so the restaurant will always be here. I won't leave. Although Chengdu is quite far from Shanghai, there are still holidays to work."
"For example, during the Labor Day holiday or the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, you can come back to Chengdu to play," said Yuan Zhou.
Shin Min was still a little unhappy and didn't say anything.
"Don't think too much. No matter where you go, The Kitchen God will always be on Taoxi Road," said Yuan Zhou.
"I understand, boss," said Shin Min.
"Don't be unhappy," said Yuan Zhou. "When will you leave? I'll prepare a farewell banquet for you."
"I'll treat you to a farewell banquet," said Shin Min. "I've saved a lot of money."
Yuan Zhou said, "This is my restaurant. I have the final say. You don't have to pay for the farewell banquet."
Shin Min thought of the time when she went to school and sprained her ankle. However, Boss Yuan insisted that it was a work injury and reimbursed all the expenses. His tone then was the same as now.
She was very grateful to have such a boss. While reminiscing, Shin Min thought of the last thing she could do to help Boss Yuan. "I'm graduating next month. If you can't find me, I can ask my teacher to stay for another month."
"There's no need for that. The earlier you go to Shanghai, the earlier you can familiarize yourself with the environment. Call me if you have any difficulties," said Yuan Zhou.
Shin Min nodded heavily. "Understood, boss."
"By the way, you can decide the time of the banquet. Let me know when you've decided. You can invite whoever you want," added Yuan Zhou.
"Okay, boss." Shin Min nodded.
The two of them chatted for a while. Since Yuan Zhou was going to start sculpting, Shin Min left first.
More than three years ago, when Shin Min applied for the job, she was only a freshman. In the blink of an eye, she was already a senior and was about to graduate. Yuan Zhou suddenly felt a little absent-minded.
