The young couple in discussion looked quite like a married couple. The male had short hair and the female had long hair. The male had round eyes and the female had big eyes.
It was the third time that they had come to The Kitchen God. They restrained themselves and didn't make any intimate moves. They weren't dog food suppliers.
"The stem of the Stir-Fried Asparagus is so thick," the big-eyed girl couldn't help murmuring when she saw the Asparagus selected by Yuan Zhou.
Although she had only been here for three times, she knew very well about the concept of ingredients in The Kitchen God. No one would doubt that the ingredients used by Yuan Zhou were not good after they had tasted it once in The Kitchen God.
Not to mention the others, just the Stir-Fried Water Spinach and Lotus Paste with Garlic Paste were really vegetables. The thick stem was all removed. After all, the thicker the stem, the older it was. However, these vegetables were particular about freshness and tenderness.
Therefore, when the big-eyed girl saw the stem of the Asparagus was so thick, she felt very strange. Of course, her first reaction was, "Is there a dish in this world where the thicker the stem, the more delicious it is?"
"That's right. You don't know if you haven't eaten it. The thicker the stem, the crisper it is. On the contrary, the thinner the root, the older it is." The boyfriend of Doudou Eyes seemed to know his girlfriend's doubt and immediately explained.
"There really is such a dish that is different from all the other vegetables." The big-eyed girl was even tempted to eat it herself.
It was so normal to have an appetite when she saw others eating so deliciously. Therefore, the boyfriend of Doudou Eyes also followed suit and ordered a serving of Stir-Fried Asparagus.
The discussion of the two didn't continue for the time being. On the other side, the old couple started to open the thermos flask when they saw the Asparagus in front of them.
The thermos flask was divided into three layers. The first and second layer were filled with white steaming hot rice and the last layer was filled with half a pot of vegetable soup.
As the vegetable soup had been simmering in the pot for a long time, the emerald green leaves had turned dark green and soft.
"Come on, old man. Eat it quickly. The vegetable looks so fresh and tender." The old lady pushed the first layer of the thermos flask and chopsticks to her husband.
"You, too." The old man picked up a piece of the seemingly fresh and tender Asparagus and put it into his wife's bowl.
The old lady picked up the second insulated container with a smile, nodded, and started eating.
The green asparagus tenderly was picked up by the brown chopsticks. The surface of the asparagus was glistening with oil. The old lady directly stuffed it into her mouth.
The old man's sense of taste was not very sensitive. The first thing he tasted was a faint saltiness, followed by the fragrance of vegetables.
The taste did not seem to come from the mouth, but from the taste, vision, and oral cavity to the brain.
"Cha Cha" The Asparagus Vegetables were bitten off in his mouth. Although the old man's teeth were not good, the Asparagus Vegetables were not only crispy, but also tender. It was easy to eat.
As she chewed, the unique fragrance of the asparagus became even stronger. The faint saltiness made the old lady eat a mouthful of rice with it.
This caused the originally ordinary rice to be stained with the fragrance of asparagus. This taste was like eating the most tender chayote. Not only did it carry the fragrance of vegetables, there was also a faint vegetable sweetness.
"It's so delicious. Old man, have a taste." While saying that, the old lady picked up a piece of the dish for her old man.
"Humm, it's really delicious. It's almost as good as yours." The old man praised with a smile.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can the dishes cooked by me be as delicious as those cooked by Boss Yuan?" The old lady looked at her husband reproachfully and then revealed a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum.
"We have chosen the right place for our last extravagant meal. It's so delicious." The old lady ate the dish contentedly.
Beside the old lady, her husband nodded his head repeatedly and agreed with her, but he basically didn't touch the plate of asparagus Vegetables.
The lunch time ended in such a harmonious atmosphere. Yuan Zhou bought the mulberries from the old man who was peddling at the back door again.
The two old mulberry trees in the old man's house were not treated with pesticides. Although they didn't look very good, the quality was pretty good. It could be seen that the old man had taken good care of them.
As usual, Yuan Zhou still used the mulberries to make the jam.
"There are 42 kilograms here. We will charge you for 40 kilograms." The old lady said, "Give one kilogram to Boss Yuan."
"No way. 42 kilograms is 42 kilograms." Yuan Zhou shook his head. He would never give a penny less when doing business, let alone one kilogram.
"I can only charge you for 40 kilograms. Boss Yuan, you have been kind enough to buy my mulberries every year. I will give you one kilogram. Just take it as my thanks to you, Boss Yuan." The old lady shook her head and said persistently.
In the end, this time, Yuan Zhou did not argue with the old man and still only paid for the 40 catties of mulberries. Then, he received a big bag of 42 catties of mulberries. Finally, Yuan Zhou asked with concern, "Did you receive any more suspicious payments?"
"No. Ever since Boss Yuan gave me this money detector pen, I haven't received any." Speaking of that, the old lady was very happy. She thanked Yuan Zhou again.
Actually, ever since then, the old lady would give some fruits to Yuan Zhou almost every time she sold fruits.
A good person would be rewarded. It didn't mean that one would definitely receive something after doing a good deed. It was just that the person being helped would remember the kindness.
Yuan Zhou had an obsessive-compulsive disorder. Therefore, he maintained the habit of making mulberry jam as a gift. After chatting with the old lady for a while, Yuan Zhou sent the old lady off and started preparing to make the jam.
Not long after, Zhong Lili rushed into the restaurant.
"Head Chef Yuan, this is the first list from the chairman," Zhong Lili handed the folder to Yuan Zhou with both hands.
Yuan Zhou received the folder with both hands. However, he didn't open it immediately. Instead, he waited for Zhong Lili to continue.
Zhong Lili continued, "The chairman said that if you agree to these applications, you can circle them. If you disagree, you will have to write down the reason for your disagreement." "Sure.
Is there any time requirement? "Yuan Zhou nodded his head and asked.
Zhong Lili said, "Head Chef Yuan, if you are concerned about time, 48 hours would be the best."
"Um. Thank you, Secretary Zhong." Yuan Zhou thanked her and continued, "Thank you for your hard work, Secretary Zhong. Do you want to come in and drink some water?"
"No, I won't take up more of your time," Zhong Lili said. "I still have to go back to take care of some matters."
Zhong Lili was truly busy. Otherwise, if Boss Yuan wanted to treat her to a cup of water, even if it was just plain water, she would have to agree. After all, this water was very famous nowadays.
Walking briskly to the corner of the street, Zhong Lili drove here. She took her car from the parking lot and collected a ten-yuan parking fee.
"I remember the parking fee was 5 RMB last year. Now it's doubled." Zhong Lili muttered, "There has never been such an influential chef in history. It will be hard for him to reach this level in the future."
This year, there was a saying in the financial circle, "There is no such thing as a sure profit and no loss business. If you want to find the least risky business, buy a house at Taoxi Road."
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that if it wasn't for the circumstances, many people would want to buy all kinds of insurance for Yuan Zhou.
On the other side, Yuan Zhou watched Zhong Lili leave. Then, he returned to the restaurant and opened the folder.
There were a lot of documents. The first one was "Cantonese Cuisine Association's Application to Join the Summit of Famous Chefs".
That's right. These were all applications to join the summit held by Yuan Zhou.
There was a saying that went, "One arrow pierces through the clouds, and thousands of soldiers and horses will come to meet you." Yuan Zhou had a plan, and all the chefs in the country cooperated with him.
This stack of documents was the application form of various chefs' associations. If one thought about it, almost all chefs' associations would support and actively want to join a conference. Those who knew about the industry would know the value of this, and those who didn't know about the industry would also feel that it was very formal.
Yuan Zhou had no reason to refuse. After reading all the applications, he agreed to all of them. Then, he called Zhou Shijie and confirmed the preliminary list of the first summit.
