Yuan Zhou, who relied on his talent to make a living, had been carefully selecting carrots and carving them after he hung up the phone.
"I'll take this one. I can carve a rose out of it." Yuan Zhou picked up a finger-sized carrot and muttered to himself.
Yuan Zhou was still using the kitchen knife to carve. Now, the kitchen knife and other knives in his hands were almost the same as a professional carving knife. He felt as if he could lift something heavy as if it were light.
Swish swish swish.
The knife in his hand cut through the air, and the friction between the air and the knife produced a slight sound. The time it took to carve a rose was very short, and Yuan Zhou finished carving it in a short while. Then, he picked up a white radish and began carving.
At this moment, the System, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
The system displayed, "The new reward has been generated. Host can receive it now."
However, Yuan Zhou was so engrossed in sculpting that he didn't have the heart to care about the system at all. The system didn't urge him anymore, it just kept quiet.
It was just that the words "new reward has been generated" were written in bold letters in Yuan Zhou's mind, and their presence was very strong.
There was a determination to make sure that Yuan Zhou could see it as soon as he came back to his senses.
"Shua Shua Shua", the radish shavings flew accurately into the basket under Yuan Zhou's feet. The radish in his hand also became more and more shaped until it was finally completed.
"Hu" Yuan Zhou exhaled and looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction. It was a picture of Wu Gang chopping down a laurel tree.
Wu Gang's carvings were vivid and lifelike. Even the slight frown on his face could be clearly seen. Even the tiny wrinkles on his clothes when he waved the axe could be seen clearly. The sawdust from the laurel tree was scattered around.
"Now the tree carvings are quite interesting, unlike the beginning." Yuan Zhou couldn't help but think of the Wutong tree he carved for the first time.
The system displayed, "The new reward has been generated. Host can receive it now."
"Oh? New rewards? "Yuan Zhou thought of the five-star hotel and was looking forward to it.
The system displayed, "Yes, you can receive it now."
"Let's check it out first." Yuan Zhou cleverly avoided the system's trap.
What a joke. If he directly said that he would receive it, he wouldn't be able to raise any conditions. Yuan Zhou was very smart.
[Hidden Mission]: Develop the most extreme taste of the dishes by yourself. (Completed)
[Surprise Reward] A gourmet tour (to be received)
(Note: Return flight from Chengdu to Singapore Airlines first class. Accommodation provided at the international five-star Grand Hyatt Hotel.)
System, I have seen your sincerity. However, I have just gone to Japan. It would be better for me not to go far for the time being. I will go again after some time. Yuan Zhou nodded his head in satisfaction before rejecting the system.
"…"
If the System had its own thoughts, it would probably say, "I have something to say right now. The trip to Japan was a year ago, and now it's spring. I've been cooped up at home for a few months."
However, the system was not in a good position to say anything. For a moment, both sides were silent. However, Yuan Zhou did not care about this and continued to sculpt.
Only by not panicking would one be able to take the initiative.
After Yuan Zhou finished carving another radish, the System spoke again.
The system displayed, "The reward has been adjusted. Host can receive it now."
"Oh? System, you sure are proactive today. "Yuan Zhou did not look at the reward immediately. Instead, he teased leisurely.
The system displayed, "Host, you have yet to receive a reward."
The system ignored Yuan Zhou and reminded him dutifully.
"Tsk-tsk. He must have increased his bargaining chips again. A good young man with the core values of socialism like me will never be moved by some small favors." With an expression of "System, give up", Yuan Zhou said affirmatively and resolutely in his heart.
What a joke. Who would want to go to Thailand to eat curry or Indian pilaf? Yuan Zhou firmly rejected the system.
Even if it was first class, even if it was a five-star hotel, he was only trying to tease the system. One must know that the system had cheated him many times in the past. He had to grasp this rare opportunity.
After all, Yuan Zhou was a very principled person. If you cheated me, I will get back at you.
However, he could still take a look at the reward. After all, it was rare for the system to adjust the reward.
This time, when Yuan Zhou looked at the reward, he directly ignored the first line and scrolled to the last line.
He saw a new sentence added on the last line.
Note: Return flight ticket from Chengdu to Singapore Airlines first class. Accommodation provided at the international five-star Grand Hyatt Hotel. Also, 100,000 RMB for the gourmet fund.
100,000 RMB for the gourmet fund!
"Receive the reward." Yuan Zhou made a prompt decision without hesitation.
Yuan Zhou said with a straight face, "System, for the sake of gourmet food, for the sake of a noble dream, I must go. Actually, even if you don't give me such good conditions, I will still agree. This is what a good chef should have. But system, you sincerely do not want me to work hard and insist on giving me such good conditions. If I don't agree, it would mean that I am not giving you face. Since that is the case, I will not refuse! "
"Thailand then. I heard that the pineapple rice there is quite delicious. It is indeed worth a trip." Yuan Zhou chose the best option.
The cost of living in Thailand was not high. 100 Thai Baht was equivalent to 20 RMB. 100,000 RMB was enough for him to have fun and still have some left over.
Going out to have fun and still earn money?
The system displayed, "Host, please choose your return time after receiving the reward."
"Hmm, no problem." Yuan Zhou accepted the reward without hesitation.
Seeing how straightforward Yuan Zhou was, he had totally forgotten that he would not be bribed by small favors. His posture of accepting the reward was extremely natural.
He didn't know whether it was an illusion or not, but he felt the system flashed a sentence that seemed to be, "Can I beat you to death?"
However, if he looked carefully, there was no such sentence. He must have been hallucinating. Thinking about it, it made sense. Why would the system want to beat such a clever and adorable host to death?
Ten days had passed since Yuan Zhou received the reward, but he still hadn't set off. In Yuan Zhou's words, it was not fun in Thailand at this time of the year. It would be better to wait for a few more days.
During this period, the atmosphere of Yuanzhou Shop was quite tense. It was all because of the food snatching competition between Qin Xiaoyi, Gao Fan, and Wuhai.
Ever since Wuhai lost for the first time, he had been eagerly waiting for a chance to regain his lost ground. As long as one of the two came, he would go up to challenge them.
Of course, Qin Xiaoyi and Gao Fan didn't like the taste of the competition. After winning the last time, they basically challenged Wuhai the moment they entered the shop.
However, who was Wuhai? He was known as Shameless Wu in the martial world. Ever since he lost for the first time, he had woken up. What did he have? He had a gluttonous stomach. No one could compete with him.
After the second food snatching competition, Qin Xiaoyi and Gao Fan didn't win again. Moreover, as the number of food snatching competitions increased, the two of them ate less and less.
