Chapter 2733: Scaring Yuan Zhou
Translator: 549690339
Although Yuan Zhou had been busy with the wedding and the honeymoon, he didn’t miss anything else.
Before he got married, the new ethnic cuisines had just been released, and he had already considered the matter of an in-name disciple. He planned to have one in-name disciple for every ethnic minority. In the past, when the cuisines took in in in-name disciples, some chefs who specialized in ethnic cuisines were selected.
Now, each race had one. It was just right. This was just his initial idea. He still wanted to ask Zhou Shijie and several other highly respected Masters for their opinions on the details.
Yuan Zhou had always respected these culinary seniors very much. As long as it was within his ability and he could meet their requirements, he would not refuse.
Although tan Mingxin’s words were vague, it was, after all, someone else’s business. What would happen if he said it out loud? nevertheless, he had already pointed out the basic meaning. Yuan Zhou naturally understood it as soon as he heard that.
Upon hearing Yuan Zhou’s words, tan Mingxin didn’t say anything. Instead, the gratitude and respect in his eyes became even deeper. He had already felt that Yuan Zhou was broad-minded and didn’t mind the trifles. Anything related to cooking could be discussed. Even with his excellent cooking skills, he didn’t say that he wanted to keep it for himself. Not only could he take care of his apprentice, but he could also let his apprentice take care of his apprentice. He didn’t have any thoughts of keeping it to himself at all. He was really an admirable man.
It was even more so now. By right, it was already enough for each cuisines to accept in-name disciples. At least, tan Mingxin himself couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t accept so many in-name disciples if he knew so much like Yuan Zhou and even cultivate them into talents.
Moreover, to be able to take in these disciples, other details would not be considered. One person’s energy was limited, and another person was also selfish. What if others learned too much and surpassed him?
However, when he looked at Yuan Zhou and heard his words, tan Mingxin felt a deep sense of respect and also a little ashamed. There were some things that people like him knew about but didn’t have the courage to improve. Yuan Zhou had that.
Tan Mingxin admired Yuan Zhou’s courage and determination to do his best. He had always known that Yuan Zhou placed the most emphasis on moral character when he chose his disciples. Apart from having outstanding craftsmanship and great talent, the first test was also the selection of one’s moral character. Otherwise, Yuan Zhou would have rejected him.
Although no one had been rejected so far, everyone would still carefully screen and try to maintain this record.
...“Thank you,” he said.
Tan Mingxin stood up and bowed deeply to Yuan Zhou to express his excited feelings. He felt that he could still work in the Association for another 20 years and develop his own strength for the Beijing cuisine Association.
“Head chef tan, you’re too polite.”
Yuan Zhou quickly helped tan Mingxin up. The old man was already very old. Because of his skills, he could communicate with these senior chefs from the same generation or even a higher position. However, he had always respected the old and loved the young. Therefore, he respected them very much in other aspects. When tan Mingxin bent down, Yuan Zhou was a little frightened.
Although he could vaguely feel why tan Mingxin was so serious, he really felt that it was nothing. He still felt that it was inappropriate to receive the old man’s bow.
With tan Mingxin as the vanguard and Yuan Zhou already planning to discuss the matter of the ethnic cuisines, Qiu Minglu’s visit in the afternoon went exceptionally smoothly. Almost as soon as he voiced his request, he was shocked by Yuan Zhou’s plan.
At first, Qiu Minglu thought that it would already be very good if they could fight for a total of two spots. He didn’t expect that a huge meat pie would suddenly fall on his head. It was one for each nation, and he was so happy that he almost lost his sense of direction.
His gratitude to Yuan Zhou almost made Qiu Minglu worship Yuan Zhou. He didn’t have the chance to acknowledge Yuan Zhou as his master anymore. As he was getting older, he should leave opportunities for the younger ones. However, his disciples and Grand-disciples might have a chance.
There were quite a few disciples from the eight ethnic cuisines, and some of them had outstanding talents. He should be able to pick some of them out.
After sending away the satisfied Qiu Minglu, Zhou Shijie, and several other Masters, Yuan Zhou suddenly had an idea.
“The bigger your head is, the more responsibilities you should bear. As the master chef, you can’t just look at the small piece of land in front of you. You should look at a bigger picture and see more people and things.”
Yuan Zhou had a feeling by chance that nowadays, many masters came to exchange cooking skills with him. Regardless of whether they were local or foreign, they were all well-known in the cooking industry. However, they would still come to master chef Restaurant to exchange cooking skills with him. There was no other reason other than that his cooking skills were the best.
Since his culinary skills were the best, he should take the initiative to do something instead of passively waiting for others to come and Exchange with him. He couldn’t just look at China alone. Of course, China, as Yuan Zhou’s motherland, still had preferential treatment.
“After these things are settled, I can start doing other things. But should I hand this matter over to Xu ban or Cheng zhaomei?”
With a frown, Yuan Zhou thought for a while and decided to leave this matter to Cheng zhaomei. After all, he was his legitimate disciple and it was best to let his disciple do what Yuan Zhou was going to do next.
Although he thought so, in the end, he still took out his phone and called Xu ban to ask him to come with him. He intended to let Xu ban help Cheng zhaomei. Cheng zhaomei was already busy enough usually, but he still wanted to give her more work. Although Cheng zhaomei herself was very willing to do so, as a master, she still didn’t want her disciple to get tired and fall sick. Thus, it was necessary to find someone to help her.
After dealing with the matter, Yuan Zhou looked at the time and found it was time to prepare the ingredients for dinner. Therefore, he directly washed up and went into the kitchen to get busy.
Speaking of which, tan Mingxin had done his job very well. Qiu Minglu had arrived at noon. In order to welcome him, he had to tell him about Yuan Zhou’s attitude first. He didn’t even go to the master chef Restaurant for lunch.
He had ordered some Tan family’s desserts and Kungfu dishes from Yuan Zhou early in the morning, the kind that could be eaten in the evening. He definitely wouldn’t be able to make it in the afternoon and could only wait for the evening.
Qiu Minglu, on the other hand, had solved the problem in one day and felt relieved. He also had the leisure to cook a meal at master chef Restaurant to reward himself.
Then, the two of them got together. In fact, tan Mingxin was not very willing to eat with Qiu Minglu, so he ordered a delicious meal.
However, when he came to line up, he happened to run into Qiu Minglu, who happened to come out of the shop. This was really a coincidence.
Since everyone knew each other and met each other coincidentally, what else could they do? naturally, they should have a meal together. No matter what tan Mingxin thought in his heart, he could not show it on his face. Otherwise, this would not be a matter of being petty.
Thus, when dinner time started, tan Mingxin and Qiu Minglu joined the first line. They had arrived early and were in the first line.
Yuan Zhou raised his eyes and saw the two old men. Although he was surprised why they came together, he just nodded to greet them and then waited for the menu quietly.
