Of course, he was opposed by his wife at first, but not long after he moved here, he realized that this decision was worth it in all aspects.
Not long after, the thick bead curtain was lifted with a sound of "Hua La". A very lucky woman in her 30s walked out. She had a round face and a smooth figure. Of course, she couldn't be compared with Du Yueban, but she looked very happy.
She directly handed him a greenish-yellow bamboo basket with a lid, which should contain the mangoes mentioned just now.
After receiving it, Du Yueban walked out directly with Yu Ding. Time waited for no man. Yuan Zhou usually didn't have much time to rest. He was very busy most of the time, which was a fact known by everyone on Taoxi Road.
It didn't take long to walk from the end of the street to the location of The Kitchen God in the middle of the street. However, because of the endless flow of people on the street, it took a lot of time. Even if they walked fast, it still took them 10 minutes.
Along the way, Yu Ding was rehearsing in his mind what he should say when he saw Boss Yuan later to express his admiration.
"Boss Yuan, are you busy? I have something to do. Am I bothering you?" As soon as Du Yueban arrived, he saw Yuan Zhou sitting in the restaurant and asked directly.
In fact, Yuan Zhou was sitting here just for Yu Ding. He planned to wait for half an hour. If Yu Ding didn't come, he would be busy with other things. Sitting and reading was also waiting.
"No, I happen to have some free time. Boss Du, why are you here? There aren't any new tableware recently." Yuan Zhou put down the book and stood up.
"Hahaha, I know, I know. These are the mangoes my wife bought this morning. It's said that they were picked not long ago. Miss Yin likes to eat fresh mangoes, doesn't she?" Du Yueban handed the basket to him with a smile.
The neighbors were used to greeting and seeing people off. Yuan Zhou didn't say anything and directly took it. Then, he went to the kitchen and opened the basket, intending to put the fruits down. The mangoes were greenish-yellow and looked very fresh. It was indeed the ripeness that Yin Ya usually liked. It seemed to be a thoughtful gift.
He picked out the mangoes and put them in the basket. He also picked up some jam that he made himself and put it in the basket. After closing the basket, he took it out and handed it to Mr. Du.
"Thank you, Boss Yuan." Du Yueban felt the weight of the basket and knew that it was a 'local product'. She was very happy.
Du Yueban was very concerned about Yuan Zhou's culinary skills. Although he couldn't treat The Kitchen God as a canteen like Wuhai, Du Yueban still liked to bring his wife to the restaurant to have a meal every few days.
"Ah, by the way, Boss Yuan, this Mr. Yu seems to have been introduced to you by someone." Du Yueban rubbed his stomach and finally remembered the matter.
Hearing that, Yu Ding immediately came out from behind the huge Du Yueban and stood in front of Yuan Zhou. He bowed slightly and greeted politely, "Hello, Master Yuan. I'm Yu Ding. Master Fei Zhi introduced me to you."
Although he felt that Yuan Zhou's face was too young and was a little surprised, the ceramics and the taste of the dishes couldn't be deceived. Therefore, there was nothing wrong to call Yuan Zhou a master.
Hearing Yu Ding's self-introduction, Yuan Zhou knew that he was the person that Wen Zhi had called to talk to him.
Yuan Zhou sized him up and found that Yu Ding appeared to be in his thirties. He was wearing a T-shirt and casual pants, looking quite casual.
"Hello, Mr. Yu Ding, right? Have a seat. I received a call from Master Fei Zhi just now. I didn't expect that you would arrive so soon," Yuan Zhou greeted him.
Seeing that he had finished his role as a tool, Du Yueban didn't disturb him anymore. He immediately bid farewell and left to make room for the two people to talk. His eyes were really sharp.
"Thank you, Master Yuan." Yu Ding thanked him and sat down.
Yuan Zhou wasn't a talkative person. After exchanging greetings, he began to ask some questions about ceramics and told Yu Ding everything he knew according to his reaction. Yu Ding, on the other hand, very respectfully told him all his questions and what he knew.
The more they chatted, the more surprised Yu Ding was. He had chatted with Master Flying Finger before. As a master who had been famous for a long time, he was naturally very knowledgeable and knew a lot of things. However, Yuan Zhou wasn't inferior to Master Flying Finger at all, which benefited him a lot.
"Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling"
When the alarm clock set by Yuan Zhou rang, the conversation between the two people that was getting more and more excited was interrupted.
Master Fei Zhi was right to say that Yu Ding was a talented young man. Yuan Zhou felt that Yu Ding was really not bad. It could be said that Yu Ding was a rising star in the ceramic world. He was very pleased, so he told Yu Ding everything he knew and thought without hiding anything. Even if the alarm clock didn't ring, he would have told him everything.
"I'm sorry to disturb Master Yuan for such a long time. I really benefited a lot from talking with you today. Thank you very much." Yu Ding had a good eye.
As soon as the alarm clock rang, he immediately swallowed what he wanted to say, stood up and bowed deeply to Yuan Zhou to express his gratitude.
"You are very talented. You can't go wrong if you keep working hard." Yuan Zhou said in the tone of an elder.
"Thank you, Master Yuan." Yu Ding was very enlightened.
"By the way, Master Fei Zhi said that Master Ge, the direct descendant of the black pottery skill, recently appeared in Gan Province and seemed to want to give a lecture. I plan to go to Gan Province tomorrow to see if I can be lucky enough to meet Master Ge. I can only visit Master Yuan next time." Yu Ding suddenly thought of this matter.
"Master Ge went to Gan Province recently?" Yuan Zhou asked.
He happened to be planning to visit Master Ge in Dian Province soon. The main reason was that when he was learning about minority cuisines recently, he found that the cooking utensils of many dishes were special. For example, many Tibetan dishes used black pottery, especially those in Dian Province. The Nisi black pottery was especially famous.
As a person who pursued the original taste of ingredients, Yuan Zhou naturally hoped to do the best. Therefore, he wanted to learn from Master Ge, the inheritor of the black pottery. He didn't expect to hear that Master Ge had gone to Gan Province. This was timely.
"According to Master Fei Zhi, Master Ju invited Master Ge there. I don't know the details," Yu Ding said.
It wasn't something he could understand. After all, his status was different.
"I see. Thank you," Yuan Zhou said.
"I see. As long as the information is useful to Master Yuan." Yu Ding waved his hands continuously.
Soon, Yu Ding didn't disturb Yuan Zhou anymore. Instead, he directly left. Meanwhile, Yuan Zhou also started to prepare the ingredients for lunch.
Of course, Yu Ding didn't leave Taoxi Road immediately after he went out. Instead, he planned to have lunch before leaving. What a joke! Since the breakfast was so delicious, the lunch would definitely be more delicious. If he left without eating, he would feel that he would suffer a loss.
Therefore, he went out and stood under the eaves outside the restaurant, waiting for the lunch time to begin. Of course, in a little while, people began to line up. Seeing that, Yu Ding immediately went over and experienced the treatment of queuing at an extremely fast speed.
It was really a feeling of flying. In the blink of an eye, the number of people in the line increased abruptly. It was really amazing.
Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, had no distractions in his mind. He devoted himself to cooking and put aside all other matters for now.
