Yuan Zhou only felt good about himself in his heart. The system's reply didn't show it. Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn't know he was being looked down upon by the system.
"With a complete set of cuisines in hand, I don't feel so anxious anymore." Yuan Zhou would cook some dishes from the Chengdu School of Sichuan Cuisine from time to time to practice.
Of course, he would eat the dishes he cooked himself.
Just when Yuan Zhou was feeling proud, the system suddenly spoke.
The system displayed, "Host, the accompanying snacks have not been collected."
"Don't worry. I'm a chef. Cooking is the most important thing," Yuan Zhou clenched his teeth.
The system displayed, "Host, your goal is to become a Master Chef. As a trainee Master Chef, other skills are also necessary."
"I'm going to read," Yuan Zhou said after a pause.
After Yuan Zhou went to read, the system fell silent.
Delicious food would make people remember its taste, fragrance, and beautiful decoration. Thus, people would never forget it after eating it. Now, there were people who couldn't extricate themselves from the food cooked by Yuan Zhou.
However, they couldn't eat it. Not only could they not eat it, they also had to endure the pictures of various delicacies sent by Jiang Changxi. It was like having a carrot tied to the front of a donkey. You could see it, but you couldn't eat it.
And this miserable person was Yu Chu, who was on a business trip. Moreover, he was currently on a call. The call was naturally from Jiang Changxi.
"How is it? Have you seen the new dish? I'll take you to eat it when you come back. Of course, we have to settle the contract first," Jiang Changxi said with a smile.
"With my salary, I can still afford to maintain it at around 500 RMB per day," Yu Chu replied calmly.
"Is that so? Then, do you want to drink wine? "Jiang Changxi wasn't moved and continued to fool him.
"How about the wine?" Yu Chu asked after a long silence.
"It's even better than the dishes," Jiang Changxi said mysteriously.
"Sure," Yu Chu answered straightforwardly.
"Then, I'll have to trouble you with the contract," Jiang Changxi instructed and hung up the phone.
After all, it was better to quit while one was ahead. Jiang Changxi was very good at this point.
"I didn't expect that eating is also a form of relaxation." Yu Chu recalled the food in the Yuanzhou shop.
"Gu Gu" Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from his stomach.
"Um. It seems like it's lunchtime." Yu Chu sat up, turned on his computer, and inserted a USB drive into it.
Clearly, this was the computer of the branch company. Most of the documents were stored in Yu Chu's thumb drive.
"The food in Yuzhang River is quite similar to that in Sichuan Province. It's mainly spicy," Yu Chu said as he opened a document.
It was a well-organized document made in Word. There were many horizontal boxes with some names written on them, such as Jiujiang Snacks, Ganzhou Hot Pot, Nanchang Style Restaurant, and so on. They seemed to be the names of some restaurants.
On the other hand, the vertical column was much simpler. There were only three words written on it, which were "Specialty Dishes".
Corresponding to the names of the restaurants above, below were the specialties of each restaurant. Behind each dish were some stars, ranging from one star to five stars.
For example, in the Jiujiang Snacks, there were muffin cakes, white sugar cakes, lingzhi glutinous rice balls, and so on. All of these snacks were marked with two stars.
As for the Nanchang Style Restaurant, there were the specialties of Yuzhang River — Sauteed Pork with Artemisia Root, Lotus Blood Duck, Lushan Stone Chicken, and Yonghe Tofu.
The bottom column was left blank. It seemed like it was for the evaluation of the dishes.
That's right. For the sake of food, Yu Chu had specially made a list of the local specialties. Moreover, he had made this list before coming here.
Now, it was clear that Yu Chu was going to act according to the list.
Just as Yu Chu was checking where to eat today, someone knocked on the door.
Dong Dong Dong. The knocking was rhythmic.
"Come in," Yu Chu said.
"Creak." The door was opened, and a meticulous young woman wearing a thick woolen dress entered. Her hair was tied up in a bun, and not a single strand was out of place.
"Manager Yu, this is the company's situation, as well as the documents." The woman's voice was crisp and clean.
"Um." Yu Chu looked at the documents on the table and nodded.
"This is the oatmeal you left last time. The hot water is ready. You can use it at any time," the young woman said solemnly as she put down a jar.
"Leave it there. Arrange a driver for me," Yu Chu suddenly said.
"Alright. Your meeting is in 40 minutes, and the meeting with the company is half an hour after the meeting. Do you want to change the schedule?" The young woman nodded and told him about Yu Chu's schedule.
"The meeting will be held at 2 PM. The rest will be postponed. I need to go out for a while," Yu Chu said.
"It's already noon. You should have lunch before going out," the young woman said hesitantly.
The young woman clearly thought that Yu Chu was going out to work. After all, when Yu Chu came to the branch company, he didn't even go out for lunch. He would just eat some oatmeal. But now, he wasn't even eating oatmeal. He was too hardworking.
"I'm going out for lunch." Yu Chu stood up and didn't say anything else.
"Alright. Do you need me to accompany you?" The young woman was the secretary in charge of Yu Chu's branch company. She naturally had to accompany him for work.
That's right. The young woman thought that Yu Chu needed to have lunch with a client.
"No need. I'm just going out for lunch," Yu Chu frowned and said bluntly.
"Alright." The young woman could hear the directness in Yu Chu's words. She immediately agreed and went to arrange a car.
However, the doubt in her heart grew. She couldn't help but mutter, "Manager Yu, you're going to eat by yourself? Is the company going to enter the F&B industry? "
That's right. This was the impression that Yu Chu gave others. He was a workaholic, a workaholic who didn't even eat when he was working. Now that he suddenly wanted to eat by himself and even postponed the meeting, it could only mean that this meal was related to work.
However, Yu Chu, who was thought to be related to work, didn't care about all this. He sat in the car and gave the address. Then, he quietly looked at his documents and waited for his destination.
The first place Yu Chu chose was the local specialty restaurant. He suddenly thought of Yuan Zhou's Steamed Tofu with Minced Pork and wanted to try the Yonghe Tofu here.
At noon, the restaurant was bustling with noise. Yu Chu's footsteps couldn't even be heard. He consciously found an empty seat and sat down. Then, he said, "Boss, one serving of Yonghe Tofu and a bowl of plain white rice."
"Please wait a moment. It will be served soon," the waiter immediately answered.
Yonghe Tofu was a quick dish. Once the ingredients were prepared, it wouldn't take long to cook in a restaurant. Hence, the speed of cooking the dish was very fast.
"Here's your Yonghe Tofu and plain white rice. Enjoy your meal." The waiter served the dishes and left.
"It looks really ordinary," Yu Chu looked at the plate that didn't have enough white color and the casual presentation. Ding!
Yu Chu picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of tofu, and sent it into his mouth.
"Um." Yu Chu's brows knitted tightly. The tofu in his mouth turned slightly cold. This time, he swallowed it with a frown.
"What kind of tofu is this? Not only is it not tender at all, but the peas inside are actually frozen peas. It's even worse than eating oatmeal," Yu Chu gave a sharp evaluation.
In the end, he only ate a mouthful of the tofu. He didn't even eat the rice and went to another restaurant.
Ever since the Tangyuan incident, Yu Chu had opened the door to a whole new world.
Of course, Yu Chu didn't forget to write down his evaluation on the form.
