Chapter 1335: The master still loves me
“Thoughts? What is it?” Zhou Shijie asked with puzzlement.
“Uncle Zhou, I hope that you can bring Liu Tong along for dinner.” Yuan Zhou said cleanly.
“That’s not a problem,” Zhou Shijie agreed immediately.
“But uncle Zhou, you don’t have to tell him that I invited him. You can just bring him here.” Yuan Zhou instructed her.
“Okay, I got it. Thank you, little Yuan.” Zhou Shijie felt touched.
“Uncle Zhou, you said before that you would never say thank you again.” Yuan Zhou said directly.
“Okay, you don’t have to thank me. Then I’ll bring the kid over tomorrow afternoon after your lunch time is over.” Zhou Shijie said.
“Alright,” he said. Yuan Zhou answered.
“By the way, Zhang Ye’s video was pretty good.” Zhou Shijie suddenly said.
“That video of the discussion?” Yuan Zhou said.
/
“That’s right. I’m going to use it as the content of the internal discussion in the next chef’s conference.” Zhou Shijie said.
“If you have anything else, if you’re willing to record the exchange, remember to give it to me.” Zhou Shijie warned.
“Alright, I’ll remember.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
“Alright, see you tomorrow.” Zhou Shijie said goodbye to them first.
“See you tomorrow,” After Yuan Zhou said that, he directly hung up the phone.
“Du du du.” Zhou Shijie didn’t put down the phone until the busy tone was heard from the phone.
“This brat, it seems like he needs to practice his cooking skills.” Zhou Shijie found Liu Tong’s phone number and mumbled to him while calling.
That’s right. Once Zhou Shijie heard Yuan Zhou’s request, he understood Yuan Zhou’s meaning almost instantly. As an experienced person, he had some experience.
Zhou Shijie naturally knew about the matter of Liu Tong inviting Yuan Zhou to cut the ribbon.
After all, this was the first time that Yuan Zhou had participated in such an activity. All the newspapers in Chengdu City had reported about it. The internet was also filled with curiosity. By the way, Liu Tong’s restaurant had also been published in Chengdu’s newspapers and had even become a new popular restaurant on the internet.
Fortunately, most of them were complimenting him. The occasional discordance was said vaguely because of the relationship between Liu Tong and Zhou Shijie.
As for those that were against Yuan Zhou, they were directly removed.
As the chairman of the provincial association, Zhou Shijie still had the right to do so in his own base camp. Besides, it was just a groundless guess.
“Toot,” the phone rang twice before it was picked up. Liu Tong’s intimate voice came from the phone,”Master, why are you looking for me? did you miss me after not seeing me for a few days?”
“Get lost, you’re always so naughty.” Zhou Shijie scolded him with a smile.
“That’s because you spoiled me. Who asked you to dote on me?” Liu Tong said with a smile.
“I’m not doting on you. Come and have dinner with me tomorrow.” Zhou Shijie said.
“You really have something good to tell me?” Liu Tong asked in surprise.
“Don’t say that. When did it not be a good thing for me to look for you?” Zhou Shijie asked in a bad tone.
“Of course not. I just didn’t expect such a coincidence.” Liu Tong chuckled.
“Don’t be cheeky. Come to the Association to pick me up at 1:30 p.m. Tomorrow.” Zhou Shijie ordered directly.
“Yes, Master. I’ll definitely complete the task.” Liu Tong said.
“Be punctual.” Zhou Shijie said.
“That’s for sure. You know your disciple well. She has always been a punctual and obedient person.” Liu Tong praised Zhou Shijie at the same time.
Zhou Shijie didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He could only put on a straight face and say seriously,””Since you’re so obedient, why did you go to find little Yuan behind my back?”
“That’s because boss Yuan is so powerful that he can control the situation. Besides, I’m still too young. ” Liu Tong’s words were incoherent, but his meaning was very clear.
In the end, there was only one thing he could say. Yuan Zhou and Zhou Shijie were invited for the same reason. They were both here to hold the fort. Although he had a high status, he was still young and thus couldn’t suppress others.
Since Zhou Shijie couldn’t come, Liu Tong could go and invite Yuan Zhou.
Of course, without Yuan Zhou’s sudden rise in the past two years, his own senior brother Li Minghui would have been a very good candidate.
He was old enough, had a high status, and was good at cooking.
However, with Yuan Zhou’s help, Li Minghui was naturally not enough.
“Don’t do it again. ” Zhou Shijie warned him sternly.
“That’s for sure. This is the first time and the last time.” Liu Tong answered seriously.
“That’s good. Let’s go to little Yuan’s place for dinner tomorrow. Remember to pick me up. ” Zhou Shijie instructed at the end.
“Okay, then I’ll follow you to eat for free, master.” Liu Tong replied.
“Yes.” It was rare that Zhou Shijie didn’t reprimand Liu Tong. Instead, he answered “hmm” and then hung up the phone.
Having hung up the phone, Liu Tong heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that his Master Zhou Shijie would definitely call him these few days because of Yuan Zhou’s ribbon-cutting, but he didn’t expect that there would be an unexpected surprise.
“It seems that my master still thinks highly of me. He didn’t forget to bring me along when he went to eat at boss Yuan’s restaurant.” Liu Tong thought happily.
Yuan Zhou had no idea how pleased Liu Tong was with himself. He was currently preparing the menu for tomorrow’s meal.
Luckily, just like what Yuan Zhou had said, he had started to try to cook Lu cuisine by himself ever since he started to communicate with Zhou Shijie.
He wasn’t very powerful now, but he could still meet people, which was why he was invited today.
After he prepared the menu, Yuan Zhou started to practice his knife skills again.
The focus of Lu cuisine was on fine craftsmanship. Therefore, Yuan Zhou had been practicing the basic skills every day. To be honest, there were only two points.
In fact, these two points were the most basic points for all chefs, which were the knife skills in the technical aspect and the personal hardships.
That’s right. Knife skills and suffering were the basic skills that Yuan Zhou had been practicing every day.
The time passed by according to the schedule set by Yuan Zhou himself. Soon, it was the afternoon of the next day and the lunch time ended. Yuan Zhou washed up and changed his clothes again and then continued to cook.
This time, he was going to make a treat for the guests.
Before cooking, Yuan Zhou specially closed the door tightly in case Wu Hai suddenly barged in.
However, Yuan Zhou didn’t know that Wu Hai was dragged away by his sister Wu Lin to the hospital after lunch.
Well, the word ‘delay’ meant the literal meaning without any extension or substitute.
The reason for the examination was that Wu Hai didn’t eat regularly while painting. In the past, he had a very serious combination of gastritis, stomach reflux, stomach ulcer, duodenus ulcer, and other such diseases.
Although he had almost recovered during the medical examination last year, Wu Hai had only been eating in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant for a year at that time.
This was also the year that Wu Hai ate regularly since he was an infant. And today was the time for him to go for a check-up this year.
As for Wu Hai’s condition that had indeed improved a lot and he didn’t want to have a check-up? Wu Lin indicated that she had her own way.
Therefore, Wu Hai missed the chance to have an extra meal perfectly. Of course, the Black Beast didn’t know this cruel fact yet.
It was because Yuan Zhou had told them that this was not a serious banquet. It was for the convenience of Zhou Shijie and Liu Tong, who had entered from the back door of the pub.
As soon as the two of them entered, they saw a few steaming dishes placed in the middle of the courtyard.
