Chapter 1619: Good news and even better news

After Yuan Zhou saw Shen Min off on the last bus with his eyes, he got up and went out. He directly called a taxi and the car arrived at the street corner in less than five minutes.

Vehicles were not allowed to pass through Taoxi road. Therefore, Yuan Zhou would definitely not break the rule.

“Sorry to trouble you, master Liang. I’ll be at this address,” said Yuan Zhou after he got in the car.

After saying that, Yuan Zhou directly handed the phone to the driver.

Master Liang took the location and entered his GPS.””It’s no trouble at all. I happen to be working the night shift. As soon as I heard that boss Yuan was using the car, I immediately rushed over to pay for it. “

Immediately, master Liang said enthusiastically,””Boss Yuan, is it safe for you to go to the suburbs so late at night? Do you want me to go with you?”

Master Liang was forty-two years old this year. Because he had worked hard at construction sites when he was young and now he ran every day, he was quite strong. In any case, he had no problem being a temporary bodyguard.

“Thank you, master Liang, but it’s pretty safe there. No problem.” Yuan Zhou said. He was quite confident in the system.

“It’s good that you’re safe, it’s good that you’re safe,” Master Liang muttered to himself.

As mentioned before, Yuan Zhou had found a reliable designated driver and a chauffeur because the pub was open to beer.

Master Liang belonged to the category of reliable drivers. He was one of the top ten good citizens of Chengdu. The reason why he was a good citizen was that his master saved two lives and caught a fugitive.

Saving two lives was easy to understand, as it was a pregnant woman who had lost a lot of blood. As for being a taxi driver to catch a fugitive, it sounded like a legend.

At night, there were fewer cars leaving the city, so it was not crowded at all.

Yuan Zhou greeted master Liang and prepared to take a nap.

The trip would take two and a half hours, which would definitely affect his sleeping time. As he still had to open the restaurant tomorrow, Yuan Zhou decided to take a rest in the car.

“Don’t worry and sleep. I’ll wake you up when we reach the place. ” Master Liang said enthusiastically.

As an experienced driver for 15 years, master Liang drove very steadily. Moreover, after Yuan Zhou said that he wanted to take a nap, he paid special attention to that. He drove fast and steadily all the way.

73 minutes later, they arrived at the system’s dairy farm in the suburbs. Master Liang turned his head and woke Yuan Zhou up.

“Boss Yuan, I’ll pick you up in about one and a half hours. Do you think it’s okay?” Master Liang said.

“Then I’ll have to trouble you, master Liang.” Yuan Zhou thanked her and stood by the roadside.

Master Liang said,”we like to take long-distance orders when we rent a car. We can only make money with big orders. I should be thanking boss Yuan.”

Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then entered the farm from the gate. Master Liang didn’t start the car until Yuan Zhou walked out of his sight.

The reason why master Liang respected Yuan Zhou so much was not because Yuan Zhou was introducing business to him, but because Yuan Zhou was a very good chef and could conquer the foreigners.

Master Liang respected anyone who could bring glory to the country.

Yuan Zhou couldn’t help grumbling to the system when he entered the farm.

“I didn’t notice this when I came here during the day. Why does this farm look like a ghost Manor?”

The dim street lights and the endless pitch-black grass. Occasionally, a cool breeze would blow past, making a rustling sound.

“If it was someone else who was timid, they would definitely be scared. Fortunately, it was me, the brave and cold Prince Charming.”

Yuan Zhou walked inside with an expressionless face. He couldn’t afford to waste any more time. He walked to the ranch, changed his clothes, and started the meal immediately.

On the other side, something happened without Yuan Zhou’s knowledge.

In the green Chef society’s meeting room.

Liao Yue then gathered a few famous chefs. Because they only talked about important matters, the chefs present were a little impatient.

“Vice President, hurry up and tell us what you have to say. It’s late at night.”

“Yeah, yeah. I still have to look at the restaurant’s monthly bill today.”

“I’ve asked you before, is there anything you can’t talk about over the phone? Video conference is all the rage now. “

Liao Yue raised his hand and lowered his voice, then said,”Today, Secretary Zhong of the chef’s Association published a message on the official website and official Weibo of the chef’s Association. He urgently wants to buy ancient recipes and books related to cooking skills at a favorable price.”

Hearing that, the chefs of the Qing chef Association became even more disinterested. After all, Zhong Lili was just the Chief Secretary of the chef’s Association.

This wasn’t about judging a person’s dish. Ancient books and recipes were very precious. If they were placed in the hands of a non-chef, they would at most be used as a collection. They would be covered in dust.

For example, Kang Hu muttered in his heart that if Chairman Zhou asked to buy, he might have agreed. As the chairman of the chef’s Association, Zhou Shijie’s cooking skills were definitely top-notch. Most importantly, Zhou Shijie had launched a “ancient dish revival” event six years ago, and he had restored many ancient recipes.

Moreover, the people who could sit here were all chefs and not people who lacked money. The words “excellent price” were not attractive at all.

“I’ve never liked collecting ancient books and recipes. I have no choice.”

“I can’t help you with this matter, Vice President. Not long ago, my grandson was playing in my study room and broke all my ancient books.”

“I had a few at home, but I lent them to a friend of mine. Coincidentally, my friend is overseas, and I don’t know when he’ll be back.”

The chefs sitting there began to play dumb.

Everyone’s reaction was within Liao Yue’s expectations. He continued,””According to my understanding of Secretary Zhong, if she was the one asking for the ancient books, she wouldn’t have released the news on her official Weibo. Chairman Zhou would never do that either. That’s why I called and found out that it was Chairman Yuan Zhou who asked for the ancient books and prescriptions.”

As soon as he said that, everyone present looked at Liao Yue in unison. Their eyes were all the same, as if they were saying: Are you serious?

Liao Yue said,”although he didn’t call Chairman Yuan Zhou to confirm it, he asked Secretary Zhong about it. Chairman Zhou told him that Chairman Yuan Zhou is here to purchase ancient books and recipes. And he is in a hurry.”

“That’s why I called everyone here to see if there’s anything you can help with. Since no one can help, I’ve collected a few ancient books on my own. I’ll send them over myself.” Liao Yue said with a face full of pity.

When everyone heard this, they knew that this was a good time to build a good relationship with their guild leader. How could they miss this opportunity?

“No, no, no. Chairman Yuan Zhou is the chairman of our green chefs ‘Association. How can we let you work alone? I still have some books here.” Kang Hu said immediately.

“Director Kang is right. We can’t let the Vice President pay for this alone.”

“We’re also a part of the green Chef society.”

The speed at which he changed his words was jaw-dropping.

“Didn’t you say that your grandson broke it and you lent it to a friend?” Liao Yue asked jokingly.

“I forgot that there are still one or two books that are not broken.”

“What a coincidence. My friend just texted me that he’s back from overseas.”

One was more aggressive than the other. In any case, the chefs of the Qing chef society had a total of seventeen ancient books and seven ancient recipes.

After Liao Yue finished counting, he couldn’t help sighing,”Chairman Yuan Zhou is really a good Chairman.”

Why did he sigh with emotion? ancient books and recipes were really precious to chefs. However, as soon as he heard that Yuan Zhou was asking for them, he immediately collected so many of them.

It was not only because of Yuan Zhou’s excellent cooking skills, but also because he was very conscientious as the chairman.

From the moment he took the position, he proposed the young chef’s exchange meeting to observe and sculpt. He didn’t hide anything at all.

It was precisely because Kang Hu and the others, including Liao Yue, were very convinced by Yuan Zhou that such a situation occurred.

The night passed quickly.

Since everyone in the car was already asleep, it didn’t affect their sleep much.

“Speaking of which, system, I just remembered something.” Yuan Zhou said,”the quality of my sleep has always been very good. Even if I sleep less, I’m still full of energy the next day. Is it because of your help, system?”

The system didn’t say anything.

“Come on, don’t be embarrassed. I remember reading a book before that there are several types of sleep, and deep sleep generally only takes up more than 20% of the total sleep time. In fact, a normal person only needs a few hours of deep sleep.”

“But it’s very difficult to achieve deep sleep. System, did you do something?” Yuan Zhou asked.

The system displayed,[the system only hopes that the host can have more time to focus on cooking.]

By saying that, it meant that the system had admitted that it had indeed helped Yuan Zhou enter a deep sleep.

“Hahaha, no need to explain, no need to explain. I understand, I understand.”

After teasing the system, Yuan Zhou felt very comfortable. Most importantly, the trip to the farm last night was very successful. He had obtained the experience record of paoding. Comparing it with reality, the speed of growth was no joke.

“It won’t be long before I can use the ox-Cleaver to slaughter a cow.” Dressed in his sportswear, Yuan Zhou started his morning jog.

When he returned from his morning run and was preparing breakfast, he received a call from Zhou Shijie.

It was really not a coincidence. Zhou Shijie had called Yuan Zhou precisely because he had calculated Yuan Zhou’s free time. After all, Yuan Zhou was called compass by others. Apart from following the rules strictly, he was also very punctual.

“There’s definitely good news. ” Yuan Zhou thought to himself and then answered the phone.

“Little Yuan, I have a piece of good news and a piece of even better news. Which one do you want to hear first?” Zhou Shijie’s chuckling voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Then let’s hear the good news first,” said Yuan Zhou.

“The good news is that there’s some progress in the purchase of ancient books and recipes.” Zhou Shijie said.

Although he had already expected it, Yuan Zhou still felt happy when he heard that. He suppressed his mood and asked,””Then, uncle Zhou, what’s the other piece of good news?”

“Another piece of news is that there are 17 ancient books and 7 ancient recipes.” On the other end of the phone, Zhou Shijie said,”it’s really rare. I remember that the chef’s Association used to collect ancient cooking recipes and ancient books. In one month, they only collected 30 ancient books and 12 ancient recipes.”

“You’ve collected so many?” Yuan Zhou was a little dumbfounded. He had only wanted to complete the mission at first, but now, he had completed the mission beyond his expectations.

“Hahaha. Little Yuan, you didn’t expect it, did you?” Zhou Shijie laughed and said.

Yuan Zhou nodded his head,”I didn’t expect that. I really didn’t expect that.”

Liao Yue and the others were really interesting. Almost each of them took out a book, but they were all using fake accounts to contact Zhong Lili on the internet.

As a result, Zhou Shijie didn’t even know that it was done by the group of people from the green Chef society.

The reason why he did that was because Wanli suggested that since Yuan Zhou asked the chef’s Association to send out the news, he definitely didn’t want to trouble the people around him.

Putting everything else aside, would master Cheng be unwilling to contribute two ancient books and prescriptions to the girl recruitment?

Therefore, Wanli thought they should “conceal their identity,” but in this way, Yuan Zhou wouldn’t know.

In the end, Kang Hu and the others all agreed to Wanli’s plan, not for anything else but to improve their knife skills.

“We’re currently negotiating the price. I’ll let you know when and where we’ll settle the transaction.” Zhou Shijie said.

“I’ll have to trouble uncle Zhou then. ” Yuan Zhou said.

“I wish you could trouble me more.” Zhou Shijie smiled and said,”alright. I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll hang up first.”

“Yes, uncle Zhou. Remember to have your breakfast.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

After the two hung up the phone, Yuan Zhou prepared to show off to the system. But after hesitating for a while, he gave up. After all, the system had just reached its rebellious stage and he couldn’t push it too hard.

After breakfast and lunch, Yuan Zhou set aside some time to practice his knife skills first. Then, he used the remaining time to call Carpenter Lian.

Although they hadn’t called each other for a long time, the master and disciple had been in contact all the time. Yuan Zhou would personally visit Yuan Zhou during every Festival. Even Carpenter Lian himself said that Yuan Zhou was his half-son.

The reason why Yuan Zhou was looking for Carpenter Lian this time was that he needed his help to make a utensil. As it was a great tool, the process was not simple. Only Carpenter Lian could make it in a short time.

After dinner, Yuan Zhou made an appointment with Yin ya to come to his restaurant. Today was a special day.

“Today is our half-year anniversary. I made you your favorite chocolate cake.” Yuan Zhou carried out a cake the size of a rice bowl from the kitchen. There was also a small half cup of red wine on the table.

Yin ya pouted her lips and looked at Yuan Zhou angrily. Although she was very happy to have a cake made by her boyfriend, it was not the time to be happy.

“Blockhead Yuan, what are you trying to do? you made me a mango thousand-layer cake after being in a relationship for 30 days, then made coffee cake for two months, nut cake for three months, ice cream cake for four months, strawberry mousse for may, and a big cake every month to commemorate me. I’ve put on so much weight!” While saying that, Yin ya couldn’t help pinching her own waist and appeared quite resentful.

The main point was that Yin ya knew that Yuan Zhou knew a lot of cakes. Even if he ate them for his whole life, he would never repeat the same cake.

“Chocolate cake. It’s your favorite chocolate. It’ll definitely taste good.” Yuan Zhou didn’t answer Yin ya’s question. Instead, he said,””You really don’t want to try?”

Upon hearing that, Yin ya lost her confidence. She looked at the beautiful chocolate cake again and said,”This is the last one. Next month, you can’t use cakes to commemorate the seven months we’ve been together.”

“Sure, no problem.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head. That was exactly what Yin ya said in may.

Having obtained Yuan Zhou’s guarantee, Yin ya felt relieved. She sat down and used the small spoon as a knife to cut a small piece of chocolate cake.

He hadn’t even put it into his mouth, but just as he brought it to his mouth, the rich chocolate flavor filled his mouth. It filled the tip of his nose.

Some people said that when one was in a bad mood, eating chocolate would make one feel better. There was a scientific basis for that. However, Yin ya already felt happy even before eating it.

Squinting her eyes, Yin ya swallowed the cake on the small spoon in one gulp. The first thing that rushed into her throat was the aroma of chocolate.

Then, he felt a faint sweetness on the tip of his tongue, but that sweetness was instantly covered by the bitter taste of chocolate. That wasn’t the end. After the bitter taste spread, the faint sweetness followed.

The rich and smooth taste spread from the tip of the tongue to the entire mouth, rich and colorful.

The sweetness and bitterness of the chocolate were fully reflected in his mouth.

“Delicious!” Yin ya squinted her eyes like a cat.

After eating the cake and drinking half a glass of red wine, he felt satisfied. He felt that the fatigue from the day’s work had disappeared.

In the end, Yuan Zhou sent Yin ya, who had eaten to her heart’s content and had once again forgotten to lose weight, back home. In the evening, the arrangement was still the same. After the pub was closed, he directly went to the pasture.
