Yin Ya immediately started preparing for the preliminary work after she got the confirmation from her leader. For example, she enrolled in a short-term French class, learned some daily conversations, or learned some information about the company she wanted to discuss cooperation with and made a plan.
"It's a little tight to finish so many things in between work. I can't let Blockhead see it. I have to work harder." Yin Ya clenched her fists to encourage herself.
While Yin Ya was doing things step by step, Yuan Zhou was not idle, either.
"The weather is hot and Ya is still so busy. I should make some heat-clearing and nutritious soup and send it to her." This was the first thought that came to Yuan Zhou's mind.
In the end, he decided to make some refreshing and nutritious soup for Yin Ya to drink. This was his encouragement of love and must be persisted.
As for whether Yin Ya felt overflowing with love, she had to ask herself.
"Shua Shua Shua"
Because of the direct sunlight in the morning, Yuan Zhou did not practice his knife skills at the predetermined place. Instead, he went to the kitchen to practice soft carving. Anyway, it was a practice. It was normal to practice one thing today and another tomorrow.
Today, Yuan Zhou planned to carve a Luohan with tofu to try the feeling and then directly make it into a dish. In this way, he could have lunch and not waste it.
After making the decision, Yuan Zhou picked up the Miracle Kitchen Knife beside him and intended to start carving.
"I don't think I have a complete collection of Miracle's kitchen utensils. Compared to other kitchen utensils, this set of kitchen utensils isn't even on the same level," Yuan Zhou lamented when he noticed the dazzling silver glow of the kitchen knife.
Ever since he got the Miracle Kitchen Knife, Yuan Zhou basically used it all the time. Whether it was practicing knife skills or chopping vegetables, there was nothing that the Miracle Kitchen Knife could not do.
To be honest, the higher the level of a Chinese chef, the less knives they used because being good at using knives was also a sign of a top chef.
For example, many foreign chefs did not understand the national conditions of China and why a knife could dominate the kitchen table.
If Yuan Zhou wanted to create a second set of knife skills, his knife skills practice must be targeted.
"It's really difficult to change my habit of using a knife, to be precise, to surpass my habit of using a knife," Yuan Zhou muttered to himself.
Not long after, the familiar ringtone of the phone rang. Yuan Zhou's hand that was holding the knife paused. "Who's calling me at this time?"
Those who were familiar with Yuan Zhou all knew his schedule. Naturally, they knew that Yuan Zhou was practicing his knife skills at this time, and those who were not familiar with him could not get Yuan Zhou's phone number.
Yuan Zhou took the phone and glanced at it. It was a call from Alex. Not knowing what he wanted, Yuan Zhou quickly answered the call.
"Boss Yuan, did I disturb you? I'm really sorry. Just two minutes," Alex said apologetically.
He really had no other choice but to call at this time. Because of the time difference, it was almost night time. He was waiting for an answer. He really had no other choice.
"It's fine. What's the matter, Alex?" Yuan Zhou also liked to communicate directly.
Alex breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Yuan Zhou's tone did not blame him. He continued, "It's like this, Boss Yuan. I just wanted to ask about the restaurant's rules. Can any diner make a reservation for the restaurant's banquets, regardless of nationality or anything else?"
Ever since a certain someone started making reservations for other cuisines besides the all-fish banquet, everyone's attitude toward banquets had skyrocketed. Of course, not many actually took action. That was because it was really expensive!
Not everyone could afford it. Usually, eating one or two dishes was considered a sumptuous meal, but if they suddenly ordered a dozen or twenty dishes, not only would they not be able to finish them, their wallets might explode.
Jia Ming, who started this trend, did not know about this coincidence. He was working hard with his friends to make next year's Memorial Day be held on The Kitchen God.
As a native of Dian Province, he said that they did not have a lot of food. There were enough banquets for everyone to choose from.
Yuan Zhou was a little puzzled when he heard Alex's question. What did he mean by no nationality or anything else? It felt weird. "This guy's mouth isn't sharp enough today."
"As long as the diners have a legitimate reason to eat at the restaurant, they can come to the banquet. However, they need to make reservations in advance. There are no exceptions," Yuan Zhou answered according to his understanding.
"Alright, Boss Yuan. Is a welcoming dinner a legitimate reason? If so, I'll have to make the first move. "Alex was obviously much more relaxed.
"Yes," Yuan Zhou said concisely.
"That's great. Boss Yuan, I want to make a reservation for an all-meat banquet like last time. There will be a total of nine people, all Spanish. We'll come over for dinner the day after tomorrow. Is that okay?" Alex's voice was filled with excitement. Clearly, he had earned a lot from this trip.
"An all-meat banquet is fine. Spanish people are fine too. However, you need to use your passport and pay in US dollars. You have to make this clear in advance." Yuan Zhou's heart skipped a beat when he heard the sensitive word "Spanish." However, his voice was still very calm.
"I've already reminded you. We'll arrive at Chengdu the day after tomorrow in the morning. See you then, Boss Yuan." Alex was about to hang up after he finished talking about business.
It was already embarrassing enough to disturb Yuan Zhou at this hour. How could he dare to disturb him any further?
"You're in Spain?" Yuan Zhou caught on to a piece of information.
"A friend needs help, so I came to join in the fun. It just so happens that there's a small team that is very interested in The Kitchen God. I'm going to bring them over to broaden their horizons," Alex said calmly.
He didn't mention at all how hard it was for him to run a business. After all, no job that required money was easy. You had to put in the effort to reap the rewards.
"Do your best." Yuan Zhou felt that since Alex had delivered the meat to his mouth, it was necessary to give him some encouragement. "All-meat banquet. Nine Spanish people the day after tomorrow. I've already written it down for you."
"Thank you, Boss Yuan." After receiving the encouragement from the God of Fortune, Alex's enthusiasm soared. He decided to bring a few more people to the restaurant to support him.
After hanging up, Yuan Zhou fell silent for a few seconds before saying, "System, I've always felt that you are my lucky charm. Whatever mission you give me, it will appear. I haven't even called Alex to ask about the Spaniards, and now you're here."
The system generally ignored this kind of non-cooking question. After all, the incident where he was tricked to the point of calling the host master was still fresh in its mind.
Yuan Zhou didn't need the system's answer. He already knew what was going on. "System, let me see the current progress of Spain First."
When it came to serious matters, the System immediately appeared and showed the progress.
"Now there are five spots, plus the nine confirmed by Alex, that's a total of fourteen spots. It seems that I can complete the task before I go to France." Yuan Zhou calculated in his mind.
If he could learn about Spanish cuisine in advance and familiarize himself with it, he would have a better understanding of French cuisine. Although he was confident about winning the Bogus Cooking Competition, it wasn't a bad idea to make thorough preparations.
