2319 Qin cai's in-name disciple

Although it was the first time they met, both parties had a good feeling. Yan Xiliang had been famous for a long time, while Yuan Zhou also knew these famous Qin cuisine chefs.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, everyone finally got to the main topic.

“Head chef Yuan, we have already selected two candidates for our in-name disciples. Do you want to take a look first?” Yan Xiliang said, embarrassed.

“Alright, President Qian.” Yuan Zhou said.

The main reason was that although the time of acquiring Hunan cuisine and Qin cuisine was almost the same, and the degree of mastery was also not much different from Yuan Zhou ‘s, Qin cuisine was obviously served much later than Hunan cuisine due to the fifth anniversary.

Therefore, Yuan Zhou felt that it was much easier for qin cai to choose a disciple in-name in advance.

When they heard that it was finally their turn, ni Liu and Han Yan’s hearts quivered. They were already a little nervous, and now that it was finally their turn, they became even more nervous.

“Ni Liu, Han Yan, come out and let head chef Yuan see you.” When Yan Xiliang saw Yuan Zhou had no objection, he immediately struck while the iron was hot and said.

Ni Liu and Han Yan took a deep breath, and after a while, they stood up.

Yuan Zhou looked to be about the same age as the previous in-name disciple. On the surface, he seemed to be calm and composed.

What satisfied him the most was that he had another female apprentice. Previously, Luo Qing was the only female. It wasn’t that Yuan Zhou valued females over males, but because of physical problems in the cooking circle, males were more suitable. However, this didn’t mean that females weren’t suitable to be chefs. Yuan Zhou wanted a balanced development.

“Head chef Yuan, I’m ni Liu.”

“Greetings, head chef Yuan. I am Han Yan.”

Ni Liu and Han Yan stood out and stared blankly for a while before they came back to their senses and spoke.

Before he came here, he had already thought of how to introduce the cuisines that he was good at so that he could leave a good impression on Yuan Zhou. It was nice to imagine, but when he saw Yuan Zhou in person, he was stumped.

“You’re welcome. Since the two of you are Qin cuisines, Liu Mingyuan and mi Hao from Hunan cuisines are also in Chengdu. If you have nothing to do, you can stay for a few more days. I’ll get someone to prepare and hold the ceremony for the apprenticeship. You can start learning as soon as possible.” Yuan Zhou said.

“Alright, master. We’re fine. We can stay.” Han Yan and Ni Liu looked at each other and said in unison, quickly changing their words.

Before this, Yan Xiliang and the others had already asked them to settle their own matters. There was absolutely no problem for them to stay in Rong city for a short period of time. They were originally afraid that such a situation would occur. It could be said that they were preparing for a rainy day.

“Liu Ming Yuan and the others are staying at the Mingyue hotel. You can go to them and talk to them when you’re free. It just so happens that your senior brother Cheng zhaomei’s shop is also there. It’s good to visit your senior brother on the way.” Yuan Zhou explained.

When Liu Ming Yuan and the others came to Chengdu, they hadn’t formally acknowledged Yuan Zhou as their master yet. Therefore, they didn’t dare to visit Yuan Zhou directly. The one they visited was Cheng Zhao Mei. As Yuan Zhou’s chief disciple, she still had quite a reputation.

Therefore, when Liu Ming Yuan and the others chose a place to stay, they chose a place that was particularly close to the Cheng family’s small shop. This was so that they could meet their eldest senior brother at any time to ask for advice and gain points in their impression.

“No problem, master. We understand.”

Han Yan and Ni Liu nodded their heads and agreed. Even if Yuan Zhou didn’t mention the following procedure, they would still go to visit Cheng zhaomei first. After all, she was their senior brother. Now that their master had even considered such a minor thing, the two of them were quite touched.

With Yuan Zhou’s status and position, he could still be so kind and considerate. Han Yan and the others couldn’t help thinking of the new evaluation of Yuan Zhou,”the chef King who is the least like the chef King of this century”, which was true to its name.

Look at the other famous chefs. They all became head chefs and let their assistants and disciples cook. Not to mention the fact that the customers could see them all the time, it was not easy for them to come out and ask them a few questions after they finished eating.

Looking at Yuan Zhou again, the gap was too big.

After the master and apprentices met, Yan Xiliang and the others were very excited. They wanted to talk about Qin cuisine after they had finished their business.

“I wonder if head chef Yuan will be busy from now on. We have some questions that we would like to ask you.” Yan Xiliang asked carefully.

Yuan Zhou revealed an apologetic smile and said,””It’s almost time to prepare the ingredients for lunch. I really don’t have time, but I’ll still be free after the afternoon business hours are over. If you don’t mind, we can have an exchange in the afternoon.”

He also wanted to have a chat with the Qin cuisine master. Although the system provided a comprehensive knowledge of Qin cuisine, except for those lost in the torrent of history and not recorded, the experience of a living Qin cuisine master was precious.

“It’s okay. We are sorry to bother you, head chef Yuan. We have some time in the afternoon. Sorry to bother you.” Yan Xiliang replied directly.

“I wonder if we can stay for lunch?” Gan Zhong couldn’t help asking.

“As long as you come during business hours, you are a customer of this small restaurant.” Yuan Zhou said.

“Thank you, head chef Yuan.” The few of them heaved a sigh of relief and were overjoyed. They could finally taste head chef Yuan’s Qin cuisine.

After saying a few more words, Yan Xiliang took everyone’s leave.

After Yuan Zhou sent them to the door, he went upstairs to wash up and change his clothes. It was time to prepare the ingredients.

“Are you staying here for lunch or are you going to visit your senior brothers first?” Yan Xiliang asked Han Yan and Ni Liu.

Han Yan and Ni Liu also wanted to try Yuan Zhou’s Qin cuisine very much. However, the most important thing at the moment was to visit their eldest senior brother and other senior brothers and inform the Hunan cuisine about the apprenticeship ceremony so as not to trouble the master. That was the most important thing.

They could still distinguish the priority, so they said in unison,””Let’s go to the Cheng family’s restaurant first. “

Apart from master chef Restaurant, the Cheng family restaurant was the most famous restaurant in Chengdu. After all, it was opened by the king of Sichuan cuisine. In addition to Yuan Zhou’s influence, even if Han Yan and the others didn’t know the exact location, they could still find the restaurant.

Moreover, Yuan Zhou had even given them the address considerately, which made it even easier.

Therefore, the people from Qin province were divided into two groups. Yan Xiliang’s group of five stayed at Taoxi road to wait for dinner, while Han Yan’s group rushed to the Cheng family’s restaurant.

“zhao mei, your two junior brothers and sisters may come to you in a while. please entertain them. they are qin cai’s in-name disciples and can be arranged with liu mingyuan and the others. please take care of them.” the first thing yuan zhou did after washing up was to call cheng zhaomei to inform her.

“i got it, master. i’ll arrange it. do you want the ceremony to be held soon or when you’re free?” cheng zhaomei’s loud voice came from the other end of the phone.

“i’ve been free in the afternoon for the past week, except for this afternoon. ” yuan zhou thought for a while and then said.

he didn’t need to go out recently. in the afternoon, he was basically practicing his cutting skills or qin cuisine and taking notes, so he was relatively free.

“alright, i’ll make the arrangements. i’ll confirm the exact time with master then.” cheng zhaomei replied.

after that, yuan zhou went downstairs to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for lunch. with the increase of cuisines, he had to prepare more ingredients in advance. therefore, he had to go to the kitchen to prepare earlier than before.
