"I remember there are many colors of diamonds, such as blue diamonds, pink diamonds, and so on. Do I need to choose the color of the diamond? Little Ya seems to like red. Maybe I should choose a red diamond?" Yuan Zhou thought seriously.
Yuan Zhou remembered a piece of news about the world's largest red diamond, Mushayev, which was said to be worth a lot of money.
He wasn't just talking about it. He really started to collect information on the internet. If he didn't check, he wouldn't be in a hurry. Once he did, he was shocked. Red diamond was the most precious diamond among the colored diamonds.
They were much rarer than blue diamonds and pink diamonds. So far, there were only two or three places in the world where red diamonds could be found. Therefore, they couldn't be bought with money. Basically, red diamonds were auctioned.
The last red diamond auction was in 2014. A 2.09 carat heart-shaped red diamond was sold for 34 million RMB.
"The price of each carat reached 16.27 million RMB. Huh? It's quite expensive. One or two hundred carats is too expensive. I'll buy a few dozen carats." Yuan Zhou stroked the non-existent beard on his chin and felt poor. He knew the world's largest diamond was more than 3,000 carats.
Then, Yuan Zhou searched for more information and found that he had thought too much. The largest red diamond, Mushaev, was only 5.11 carats. In the past 33 years, there were only 33 carats of red diamonds in total.
"Why is the largest only 5.11 carats?" Yuan Zhou was a little disgusted.
He checked the official websites of the major auctions. There were no red diamonds auctioned recently. Yuan Zhou called Alma and Alex from the auction house.
As the staff of the auction house, demand meant money. Therefore, he immediately agreed to help Yuan Zhou look for red diamonds.
Little Ya really didn't know there was a super big surprise waiting for her.
Having finished the business of the red diamond, Yuan Zhou began to prepare the food ingredients while Li Li also started to get busy nervously.
Speaking of which, Li Li's busyness had something to do with Yuan Zhou. As the head chef of the Master Chef Restaurant, he opened a western restaurant across the street.
Four years had passed. Why was Li Li's western restaurant still standing?
Was it because of his exquisite culinary skills and superb skills?
Of course not! Li Li relied on keeping the same pace with Boss Yuan at all times.
"Boss, take a look. These are the pigs you chose before. They were just killed this morning and sent over. Take a good look." A man in his forties rubbed his hands and said with a smile.
"Um, let me have a look." Li Li nodded with a straight face and went forward to check.
There were five pigs placed on the huge tabletop. They weren't particularly big, and each of them seemed to be about the same size. It could be seen that they had paid special attention when choosing them. The pig's skin was snow-white, and there was a layer of white meat and a layer of red meat. They glowed with a healthy luster, and it was obvious that they had been carefully raised.
"Not bad, they are all chosen by me. They meet the requirements." Li Li carefully checked the five pigs from head to toe and felt very satisfied.
"As long as you're satisfied, as long as you're satisfied." The weathered face instantly revealed a bigger smile. The man seemed to be more at ease at this moment.
"Go to the front desk to settle the bill." Li Li waved his hand.
"Yes. Thank you, boss." The man was very happy when he heard that. He quickly turned around and walked forward.
"Head Chef Yuan wants to make sausage pancakes as New Year's goods. Our western restaurant has to make some sausages as well. But isn't it a little inappropriate for a western restaurant to make sausages?" Li Li muttered to himself.
The quick-witted Li Li thought of a way. He put a packet of specially made black pepper sauce in each packet of sausages, pretending that it was a combination of western and western food.
[Congratulations to The Kitchen God for selling New Year's goods for the first time. Don't miss this opportunity! ]
This was a signboard written by Li Li. He did not mention anything about selling New Year's goods.
"Head Chef Yuan will start selling New Year's goods in three days. I'll start today. It should be about the same time." Li Li calculated the time and felt it should be just right.
Of course, Li Li had told Yuan Zhou in advance that he wanted to sell sausages. Yuan Zhou was a little curious as to why he was discussing this with him.
Then, Li Li said, "Boss Yuan, you are selling sausage pancakes and I am selling sausages. It sounds a little suspicious. So I have to ask Boss Yuan if he agrees."
"Sell whatever you want." Yuan Zhou waved his hand generously. As the center of the chefs' circle in China, he was not afraid of freeloading.
When the lunchtime ended, Yuan Zhou quickly washed up and changed his clothes. He had an appointment with Zhou Shijie at 2: 30. It was a little tight.
After getting on the bus, Yuan Zhou was lucky. He didn't encounter any traffic jam and soon arrived at the building of the Chef's Association.
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw his old acquaintance, Zhong Lili. She was dressed in a business suit, which showed the gentleness of a woman. Coupled with her exquisite facial features, she looked like a city beauty.
"Head Chef Yuan, welcome."
Zhong Lili had been looking at the direction of the door. Therefore, as soon as Yuan Zhou entered the door, he saw her and immediately walked up to her in high heels.
"Hello, Secretary Zhong. I have an appointment with Chairman Zhou." Yuan Zhou nodded and greeted her.
"Chairman Zhou asked me to welcome Head Chef Yuan." Zhong Lili turned around and walked towards the elevator with Yuan Zhou skillfully.
Every time Yuan Zhou came to the Chef's Association, it was Zhong Lili who welcomed him in person. Therefore, the two of them were quite familiar with each other. While walking, they chatted for a while and learned that Zhong Lili's parents had arranged a blind date for her recently due to a lot of troubles.
Regarding the blind date, Yuan Zhou couldn't express his opinion.
Very soon, they arrived at the door of Zhou Shijie's office. The door was opened. It should be calculated that Yuan Zhou would arrive soon.
"Hello, Uncle Zhou." Yuan Zhou greeted him first.
"Yuan, you are here. Come on in and have a seat. You must be busy recently." When Zhou Shijie saw Yuan Zhou, he also revealed a big smile.
Ever since The Kitchen God served Shandong Cuisine, Zhou Shijie walked with the wind. His mood could be described as "I have waited for a long time for this day".
"Almost the same as usual. Are you busier than usual, Uncle Zhou?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"I have a lot of things to summarize. It's okay. I have told you on the phone yesterday that I invited you here. It's about the Silver Spoon Award, the highest award of Shandong Cuisine." Zhou Shijie began to get to the point.
"Is the selection going to start?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"Yes. The selection of the new Silver Spoon Award will start in March of the new year. It's evaluated by the special Silver Spoon Committee. Yuan, are you interested in signing up for it? I'm the chairman of the Silver Spoon Committee this year. Naturally, I hope you can take part in it." Zhou Shijie said straightforwardly.
"Do I start signing up now?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"Next week." Zhou Shijie nodded his head.
"Do I need to fill in any form to sign up? Is it an individual or in the name of a restaurant? " Yuan Zhou wasn't very clear about the evaluation rules of the Silver Spoon Award. Besides, he couldn't find any relevant information on the Internet.
