Chairman Zhang was also younger than Ling Hong's grandfather. More importantly, he had a strong body and seemed more capable of fighting.
"What's wrong, Head Chef Yuan?" Zhang Yan asked when he saw Yuan Zhou standing at the door for a while.
"Um. I suddenly thought that it might be a little messy inside. So I was wondering if I should take out the Four Seasons Series dishes and have a look," Yuan Zhou said seriously.
Yuan Zhou wasn't afraid of Chairman Zhang. After all, he had even dug up the spring in Ji 'an. When had he ever been afraid?
He was just afraid that Chairman Zhang would be affected by his old age. It wouldn't be good if something happened to him.
"It's normal for a warehouse to be messy. It's messy but orderly. Even my study room is like that," Zhang Yan said.
Speaking of the study room, Zhang Yan naturally thought of the treasure he had found. Therefore, he continued, "There's a hundred-year-old red sandalwood in my study room. Head Chef Yuan, you can come and have a look when you have time."
How big was a piece? Could it be a roof? This was Yuan Zhou's first reaction. He didn't know how to answer.
"My daughter is also here. I can't just listen to Head Chef Yuan's experience. If Head Chef Yuan doesn't mind, we can help tidy up the place," Zhang Yan said.
Zhang Ying, who was behind him, also nodded. Although she had unknowingly become a laborer, she also supported her father's words.
Since Chairman Zhang said so, Yuan Zhou didn't have any reason to refuse. He opened the door.
First, a faint and clear wooden fragrance wafted out. Zhang Ying and Zhang Yan's expressions changed. The father and daughter exchanged a glance.
They had confirmed that this was a familiar smell.
Yuan Zhou entered the house. In fact, the whole house wasn't messy, and there weren't many things. In the innermost part, there were a few thick pieces of wood. On the left side, there was a two-tiered rotating bowl rack. The Four Seasons series bowls and chopsticks were placed on it. On the right side, there was a large cardboard box containing some miscellaneous items. Everything could be said to be in order. After all, it was called Compass.
Yuan Zhou walked towards the bowl rack with a straight face. First, he had to clean the bowls and plates of the Autumn series, then disinfect them, and finally replace them. At the moment, he was using the Summer series.
"It's a hot summer day, and people will inevitably feel restless and uneasy. Therefore, I didn't choose the main color for the summer series of dishes." Yuan Zhou began to explain.
Yuan Zhou's serious explanation drew the father and daughter's attention away from the bowl rack.
Zhang Yan did not forget the core of this trip, so he took out a gel pen and wrote down some of the important points on his palm.
This was a habit that Zhang Yan had developed when he was an apprentice. He still remembered that there was one time when his master instructed him to do something. Afraid that he would forget, Zhang Yan specially wrote it down.
Then … when he returned at night, his palm was sweaty and his handwriting was basically blurred. Not only that, Zhang Yan did not complete the task and was even beaten by his master.
Immediately, Zhang Yan remembered this matter and swore in his heart that he would never make this mistake again.
Judging from Zhang Yan's reaction just now, the oath he swore in his heart was useless.
"He even takes the weather into consideration when cooking. He is really serious," Zhang Ying muttered.
"Seasonal food has always been a very important part of Chinese cuisine. Head Chef Yuan's cooking method is only perfection," Zhang Yan said.
In fact, it wasn't only Chinese cuisine. Most countries' cuisines were also very particular about seasonal food. It was just that China had made use of the seasonal food.
Zhang Yan carefully inspected the Four Seasons series of tableware and said, "No wonder the Four Seasons series of tableware is so famous."
As elders, Zhang Yan and Zhou Shijie had always called him Yuan or Yuan Chef. But when there were outsiders around, they would solemnly address him as Head Chef Yuan. The two presidents had never discussed this, but they had a tacit understanding.
Although Zhang Ying wasn't an outsider, Zhang Yan still addressed her formally. Well … to say the least, in Zhang Yan's heart, Zhang Ying wasn't necessarily an outsider.
After all, she was his biological father. How many biological parents had kicked their children out of the family?
"I have a certain understanding about tableware." Zhang Yan changed the topic and asked, "But if I'm not wrong, this bowl rack is made from wild Hainan Huanghuali, right?"
"…" Yuan Zhou had thought that this matter had already passed. Thus, he nodded his head calmly and quietly.
Seeing Yuan Zhou nod, Zhang Yan's breathing quickened and he continued asking, "If I'm not wrong, this is not only wild Hainan Huanghuali, but also tree heartwood, right?"
He nodded again. After all, it was too obvious. Yuan Zhou couldn't deny it even if he wanted to.
Not only was Zhang Yan's breathing quickened, but his body was also trembling and his voice was a little hoarse. In the end, he asked, "Head Chef Yuan, can you tell me how old it is?"
"A hundred years," Yuan Zhou said calmly and affirmatively.
"A hundred years wild Hainan Huanghuali tree heartwood?! Using it to make a bowl rack? Can you respect the wood?! "Zhang Yan couldn't help but blurt out.
Actually, this should be said to the system. Moreover, Yuan Zhou felt that he had already respected the system enough to hire a carpenter to make it. But he didn't dare to say this out loud.
"What a waste!" Zhang Yan felt his blood pressure rising and his breathing becoming uneven.
Waste.
This was too much of a waste.
This thing belonged to Yuan Zhou and it was Yuan Zhou's freedom to do whatever he wanted with it. Therefore, Zhang Yan didn't want to strangle Yuan Zhou to death. But his blood pressure was rising and his heart was feeling unwell.
It wasn't that making a bowl rack was a level lower than carving. It was just that the bowl rack was a big piece and due to its shape, a lot of wood was wasted.
Therefore, good wood was used to make tables, sofas, beds, and other decorations. But there was no need to use it to make an antique shelf or a bowl rack!
The system displayed, "The wood is provided by the system. It is the heart of a thousand year wild Hainan Huanghuali. Host, your memory is bad. Do you want to drink six walnuts to nourish your brain?"
The sudden appearance of the system was within Yuan Zhou's expectations.
Yuan Zhou replied inwardly without batting an eyelid, "The world is so beautiful. I still want to live. I don't want to die yet."
"?" The system displayed a question mark, expressing its confusion.
Yuan Zhou really wanted to ask the system if he had another brother called the God of Grand Tycoon System. But after thinking for a while, he didn't ask it.
Because the God of Grand Tycoon System wasn't as rich as the Master Chef System. Looking at the things provided by the stupid system, Yuan Zhou had never heard of any other place except for the material used to make the bowl rack. What's more, it was the core material of the thousand-year-old wild Hainan Huanghuali.
While Yuan Zhou was talking with the system here, Zhang Yan was trying hard to calm his heart at the other side.
Zhang Ying also didn't know what to say. The only feeling she had now was that the Boss Yuan in front of her was really rich. And now, she was even more afraid that her father would fall down, so she had been supporting him at the side.
Don't think that Zhang Yan's current state was exaggerated. He didn't faint because of his good health.
"Where did you get it? Not to mention the wild ones, the material you used to make the bowl rack is definitely big. How come you still have such a big material as the hundred-year-old Huanghuali? "Zhang Yan calmed down and asked the question he was most curious about.
"I have friends and some connections." That was all Yuan Zhou could say.
Zhang Yan could only sigh, "Head Chef Yuan has a lot of friends."
Yuan Zhou gladly accepted Chairman Zhang's praise. After all, he had always treated the system as a friend.
Next, Zhang Yan kept looking at the bowl rack, from the patterns to the craftsmanship. It was said that beautiful girls could have legs for ten thousand years. Now, Zhang Yan could play with this bowl rack for a year.
About half an hour later, Yuan Zhou led Zhang Yan and Zhang Ying to change the tableware.
If they didn't come out, Yuan Zhou might not be able to keep the secret of the thousand-year-old Huanghuali wood. If that happened, blood would be spilled on the spot. Of course, that was Zhang Yan's painstaking effort.
After all, Zhang Yan still couldn't bear to make a move on Yuan Zhou. After all, Yuan Zhou was now the treasure of the cooking world.
After coming out, Yuan Zhou and Chairman Zhang began to discuss the tableware and plate presentation in more detail. Zhang Ying didn't understand what they were talking about, so she left after listening for a while.
