"Why did you come here when you're home for dinner?" Yuan Zhou asked straightforwardly.
"Hey Hey. You'll know when the time comes," Ling Hong said with a wretched smile on his face.
"Got it." Looking at Ling Hong's smile, Yuan Zhou instantly didn't want to ask anymore and directly agreed.
The Herbal Tea Eggs were cooked very quickly. As soon as he finished asking Ling Hong, Yuan Zhou scooped up one egg and put it on a small plate. Then, he poured a spoonful of tea broth over the Herbal Tea Egg.
The dark brown tea broth seeped into the egg through the cracks of the eggshell and then flowed into the plate along the smooth egg white.
Instantly, the bottom of the jade plate was covered with a layer of dark brown tea broth. It was clear and soft, and the fragrance of the tea spread.
"As expected of the Keemun Black Tea. The taste and appearance are so different," Ling Hong took a deep breath of the tea fragrance and praised.
The Herbal Tea Eggs here not only tasted delicious, but also looked very pleasing to the eyes. As the eggshell had to be broken, when the dark brown tea broth was boiled into the small egg, it would be boiled into the egg through the cracks. As a result, many beautiful brown paintings would appear on the egg white.
"Let's see what the painting looks like today," while saying that, Ling Hong began to peel off the eggshell.
"Ca Ca Ca", Ling Hong peeled off the eggshell gently with the chopsticks and directly removed all the outer layers along the outer layer.
"Let's see what it is." Ling Hong rolled the egg in the plate.
Along with the rolling of the egg, the undulating dark brown texture was like a rolling wave. That's right. It was a painting of the sea today.
"Wow, it looks like the sea today." Ling Hong rolled the egg for a few rounds contentedly and admired it carefully.
It could be enjoyed and eaten at the same time, which was also the reason why Ling Hong liked it. Of course, that wasn't the purpose of eating the Herbal Tea Eggs today, but for the lingering fragrance of the tea and the lingering aftertaste of the Keemun Black Tea.
As for why, Ling Hong didn't have the hobby of telling others. He just ate up the Herbal Tea Eggs slowly and then left the restaurant in quick steps.
Looking at his back, Yuan Zhou didn't know what was going on.
Apart from Ling Hong's strange behavior, the restaurant's business was as smooth as usual. Naturally, the pub's business was also very good.
At night, Yuan Zhou slept peacefully while thinking about the cabinet he needed to buy the next day.
When he woke up early in the morning, Yuan Zhou did not go to the market after breakfast. Instead, he planned to go after lunch. After all, he had more time in the afternoon. It would be best if he could finish this task in one go.
Therefore, once lunchtime was over, Yuan Zhou went upstairs to tidy up a little and left through the back alley.
"Broth, I'm going out." Yuan Zhou said to Broth beside him and then walked away.
At the end of the street, he flagged down a taxi and told the driver his destination.
"Mahogany Furniture City," Yuan Zhou said.
"Sure, let's go buy some furniture," the driver said.
"Mm." Yuan Zhou nodded.
"Young man, the furniture in the mahogany shop is expensive and of poor quality. What are you going to buy there?" Seeing Yuan Zhou nod his head, the shopkeeper immediately started talking.
"Really?" Yuan Zhou looked at the shopkeeper and asked sincerely.
"You look a little familiar to me." The shopkeeper turned his head and took a look at Yuan Zhou. Before he said anything, he suddenly said with puzzlement.
"It's not strange that I look familiar. People all say I look familiar. Where's the furniture?" Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said indifferently.
"Yes, you look familiar. I'm not lying to you. It's not far from here. Besides, it's quite a bad place." The shopkeeper was diverted by Yuan Zhou.
"Where are we going?" Yuan Zhou asked straightforwardly.
"Of course to Jinfa Wholesale Market. Although it's a hodgepodge, there are quite a lot of furniture and the quality is very good," the shopkeeper said earnestly.
"Jinfa Wholesale Market?" Yuan Zhou felt the name was a little familiar, thus he muttered.
"Yes, yes. Jinfa. Where are we going, young man? I'm going to make a turn. "The shopkeeper nodded his head and then asked.
"Let's go to Jinfa." Yuan Zhou said.
"Ok. Let's go to Jinfa." The shopkeeper revealed a smile on his face. The car made a turn steadily and then entered another road.
The shopkeeper had a good impression of Yuan Zhou, a young man who could listen to his advice. He was very willing to chat with Yuan Zhou and talked about some current affairs and news along the way.
Yuan Zhou also agreed with him. However, he thought of another matter in the heart.
"The craftsman that Chairman Zhou mentioned seems to be in Jinfa Market." Yuan Zhou said inwardly.
Zhou Shijie had once told Yuan Zhou that he had once made a set of furniture for his daughter's dowry. It was made by an experienced craftsman in Jinfa Market.
That craftsman didn't need to nail or weld, but only used the ancient mortise and tenon method to make the furniture. Yuan Zhou had looked it up on the Internet. There were 72 kinds of mortise and tenon method of Lu Ban circulating on the Internet. It seemed that anyone could make it according to the method, but only the knowledgeable people knew how difficult it was.
Yuan Zhou didn't know much about carpentry, but he wouldn't look down on a mortise and tenon method that was known as the most intelligent in China.
According to Zhou Shijie, the furniture was said to be of excellent quality, especially the dressing table, which was made of three mortises and seven tenons.
Actually, Yuan Zhou really didn't know that the three mortises and seven tenons were far better than the Japanese construction master Kawai Jishou, who was amazed by the mortise and tenon method abroad.
Yuan Zhou still didn't know that there were fewer and fewer craftsmen who could only use mortise and tenon method to make a set of furniture.
As for the matter of the experienced craftsman, Zhou Shijie thought of talking about it when he saw some beautiful flower racks in Yuan Zhou's store.
While Yuan Zhou was thinking about it, they had arrived at the place.
"Ping" The car stopped and went directly to the entrance of Jinfa Market.
After Yuan Zhou paid, he got off the car and walked two steps. The driver rolled down the window and stopped Yuan Zhou. "Young man, the furniture store is here. You can see it after walking two alleys. That street is full of furniture stores. It's cheap and affordable here."
"Thank you, sir." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"You are welcome. But you look really familiar." After saying that, the driver rolled up the window and left.
Jinfa Market was a comprehensive wholesale market. There were not only furniture, but also wooden doors, tiles, wallpapers, etc. There were many kinds of furniture, but they were all related to decoration.
Yuan Zhou followed the instructions and walked two streets ahead, preparing to look for the craftsman that Zhou Shijie had mentioned.
Although Zhou Shijie only said that the craftsman's surname was Lian, he didn't say where the store was. However, Zhou Shijie said that Yuan Zhou would be able to recognize the craftsman as soon as he saw the craftsman.
He would definitely be able to recognize the craftsman. How special was his appearance? After all, Yuan Zhou was a layman and didn't know about calluses.
"Does he look like a piece of wood?" Yuan Zhou's imagination ran wild. He observed carefully while walking.
Yuan Zhou had good eyesight. Even if he didn't enter the door, he could still see the people in the store. Sometimes, Yuan Zhou would stand at the door for a while and observe carefully.
As Yuan Zhou was alone, no one came to greet Yuan Zhou. After all, Yuan Zhou didn't look like a person who bought a lot of materials.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou could observe quietly. There weren't many people on the furniture street, but it was still noisy because the sound of machines rang out from time to time.
