"The pub's quota is drawn every day before breakfast. There are five people in total," Yuan Zhou answered without thinking.
"…"
Sure enough!
When Heavenly Queen Ye heard this and saw the serious expression on Yuan Zhou's face, she knew it was hopeless. Although she had always been focused on music and did not specialize in film, television, and singing, she was still good at observing people's expressions.
Although Yuan Zhou appeared to be expressionless, his seriousness could still be felt.
After thinking for a while, Heavenly Queen Ye decided to say her backup plan, "I don't know if it's convenient for Head Chef Yuan. I just want to smell the pub's red wine. I heard from Li Wei that Head Chef Yuan's red wine is of the highest quality, even better than the gold medal winner at the Appraisal Conference."
When Yuan Zhou heard that they came to drink red wine out of admiration, he knew what was going on. Anyway, since the pub had more varieties of alcoholic drinks, he would meet such customers from time to time. Especially after the fame of the Monkey Wine spread out, more and more people came to ask about it.
"Sure. I just woke up with a new bottle of wine and planned to drink it later. I can give you a small cup to thank you for your support of the restaurant," Yuan Zhou said after thinking for a while.
This was true. Although Yin Ya had not returned, Yuan Zhou planned to celebrate the new dishes. Therefore, he had taken a bottle of red wine out to sober up. It was a coincidence that Heavenly Queen Ye came.
As the saying goes, it's better to come at the right time than early. This was Heavenly Queen Ye.
Moreover, although Heavenly Queen Ye looked very well taken care of, who was Yuan Zhou? He could easily tell that Heavenly Queen Ye had just gotten off the plane and rushed to the restaurant.
There were slight creases on her clothes at the waist, obviously caused by sitting for a long time. If it was someone else, they wouldn't be able to tell. But who was Yuan Zhou?
In any case, it was the wine that he wanted to drink. Since they came all the way here, as long as it didn't break the rules, Yuan Zhou was willing to satisfy the customer's request to the best of his ability.
"Thank you so much, Head Chef Yuan." Heavenly Queen Ye's face bloomed with a happy smile.
He didn't expect that there would be a glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel. This was great.
Thus, Yuan Zhou brought Heavenly Empress Ye to the small courtyard. On the stone table was a glass of red wine that was still awake. Yuan Zhou asked her to wait for a moment as he went to fetch a new wine glass and poured half a glass of red wine for Heavenly Empress Ye.
The transparent and colorless wine cup was occupied by a layer of light red wine. Heavenly Empress Ye held it in her hand and gently turned it with practiced movements. The red wine followed the movement of the wine cup and slowly changed its position. A faint cherry aroma slowly seeped out.
Because Yuan Zhou's wine was all Pinot Noir, the best drinking temperature was always below room temperature, so Yuan Zhou added ice cubes to sober up the wine.
Now that they had left the block of ice, traces of white mist slowly rose up. Of course, it wasn't very obvious in the bright courtyard, but Empress Ye could still feel the cool air.
"Perfect color, mellow and varied aroma. The age is not young." Heavenly Empress Ye took a deep breath before slowly raising the wine cup to her lips.
The smooth taste of the red wine entered her mouth. The alternating hot and cold made the red wine's aroma and sour taste even more eye-catching. The special smooth feeling made Heavenly Empress Ye slightly squint her eyes, feeling intoxicated.
"Good wine!"
These two simple words summed up Heavenly Empress Ye's current feelings. The moment she tasted the wine, or the moment she smelled the aroma, she knew that she didn't come here in vain. It was truly a top-grade red wine. She had never experienced such an extreme experience before. It also made her decide that she must find a job here and use the wine as her salary.
Therefore, Heavenly Empress Ye used her utmost sincerity and the eloquence she had trained in the entertainment industry to convince Yuan Zhou that she wanted to perform in the restaurant. She even performed a part of the performance on the spot to increase Yuan Zhou's impression of her.
Needless to say, Yuan Zhou definitely agreed. To be honest, Yuan Zhou had heard of Heavenly Empress Ye Xuan's songs before. They were very famous. In addition, Heavenly Empress Ye had promised to perform in the restaurant, so everything was similar to what he had initially intended.
Since everything was in line with the rules, Yuan Zhou had no reason to disagree.
Moreover, Ye Xuan had become a "husband stone" in the eyes of her fans.
Now, a Heavenly Empress was singing in the pub. What kind of level was that?
He wondered what it would be like once it was publicized.
Another day passed.
Starting from breakfast time, Yuan Zhou was busy as usual. He was very busy, especially during non-business hours. Not only did he have to practice his cutting and cooking skills, but he also took a break from his busy schedule to meet the naughty kid and ask him for help.
Speaking of which, ever since the naughty kid worked with Yuan Zhou to sell menus, Yuan Zhou finally understood that earning money had nothing to do with age. Some people in their thirties still didn't have money …
Therefore, sometimes, Yuan Zhou had gotten used to asking the naughty kid for help. The main reason was that the kid was reliable.
They had been whispering for a few times, but no one knew what the two of them wanted to do together.
Soon, it was time to line up at noon. Diners came one after another. Some of them were idlers who had been waiting at Taoxi Road since the beginning, some were tourists, and some lived nearby. Some of them rushed here as soon as they got off work, and some of them stayed at home and came here at the right time. There were all kinds of people.
Min Dong and his girlfriend Cui Ping didn't belong to these categories. Although they came to Chengdu for a trip, Min Dong was a native of Sichuan Province, just not from Chengdu. Cui Ping was from another province. She came to Chengdu for The Kitchen God.
Min Dong had heard of Yuan Zhou's name for a long time, but it was the first time for him to come here for a meal. It was also because Min Dong had been promoted recently and got a raise in salary. Besides, he finally succeeded in his proposal, so he needed to celebrate. Therefore, he planned to eat the Kitchen God that his girlfriend had been longing for for a long time. It was a surprise for his fiancée.
Min Dong didn't care about it. He thought he was a rough man, so he was easy to take care of. He just needed something to eat.
The two of them came early and were lucky to be at the end of the first echelon. Therefore, after Su Ruoyan announced the start of lunch time, they entered the restaurant one after another.
The two of them were originally at the end of the line. Besides, there were no elderly people in the first echelon. Therefore, there were only two spots left. Although Min Dong was not satisfied, he could still accept it.
Cui Ping yearned for The Kitchen God very much. She was also familiar with the rules of the restaurant, so she didn't have any objection.
Wuhai and Mao Xiong didn't use them today. Su Ruoyan took the pen and paper and started to write down the menu. Therefore, she ordered the dishes for Min Dong and the others based on the principle of being nearby.
Cui Ping was from Jiangsu Province, so she naturally ordered Jiangsu cuisine. Besides, she usually ate bland food, so the dishes she ordered were also bland. Min Dong naturally leaned towards his wife and also needed to set an example.
"One West Lake Beef Soup, one Stir-Fried Shrimp, one Wild Rice Shredded Pork, one Steamed Shad and a bowl of rice. That's all," Min Dong ordered without hesitation. Obviously, he had done his homework.
"Wife, you order too," Min Dong said to Cui Ping.
Cui Ping nodded her head. After thinking for a while, she picked out the dishes she wanted to eat, "One General Crossing the Bridge, one Double-skinned Anchovy, one Chicken Soup Shredded Pork and one serving of rice will do."
Probably because she usually ate bland food, Cui Ping had a small stature and fair skin. She also spoke in a soft voice. Every time Min Dong talked to her, he had to lower his voice subconsciously for fear of scaring his wife.
