2380 Meritorious Service

At first, Chen Mu looked like he was suffering from anorexia. He was as thin as a stick, but that was not the case. It was just that he was too picky as a human. He did not want to eat ordinary food. His biggest problem was that he could not eat it, including the food he cooked.

Of course, some people said that this was because they were not hungry. What couldn’t they eat if they were hungry? It couldn’t be said that Chen Mu would just eat something to fill his stomach when he was hungry, which was why he was so thin.

Ever since Chen Mu ate Yuan Zhou’s food for the first time, he had been amazed. No matter what Yuan Zhou cooked, he could eat it and he ate quite a lot. Therefore, as long as he had time, Chen Mu would go to Chengdu for a few days every month and eat Yuan Zhou’s delicious dishes.

Recently, Chen Mu was no longer the same as before. Although he was still thin, he looked lean, not as sickly as before. That was why he was able to become the chairman of gan cuisine at this time. If he were in his previous state, no matter how good his cooking skills were, no one would dare to let him take the position. Just think about it, the chairman of a cuisine Department looked like he had anorexia.

What kind of negative publicity do you think this is?

Therefore, if one were to trace back to the source, Yuan Zhou had a part to play in Chen Mu becoming the chairman this time.

Of course, Yuan Zhou had no idea about this. After thanking Wang Huai, he planned to hang up the phone.

However, before he hung up the phone, Wang Huai had a problem.

“Head chef Yuan has taken a five-day leave this time. I wonder if he can come back on time?” Wang Huai suddenly asked.

Of course, he knew that Yuan Zhou was a very punctual and rule-abiding person, but that didn’t stop him from asking. The main reason was that he had originally planned to go to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant for lunch on a whim today. Who knew that when he arrived, he would see a piece of white paper and a group of people surrounding him. Then, he knew that Yuan Zhou had asked for leave. What a coincidence.

Now that he had met the real deal, he naturally hoped to be able to confirm it and feel more at ease.

In fact, not only Wang Huai had such an idea, but many other customers also had the same idea. Although Yuan Zhou always meant what he said and never made a mistake, every time he asked for leave, he would have to wait until Yuan Zhou opened his restaurant before he could feel at ease.

It had nothing to do with trust. He just felt that if Yuan Zhou didn’t open his restaurant, he wouldn’t be able to set his mind at ease.

“What?” Yuan Zhou was stupefied by the question. He paused for a while and then said, “I’ll definitely be able to go back on time. I’ll open the restaurant on time. “

Although Yuan Zhou didn’t know the reason for grandfather Wang’s question, he still answered according to his own thoughts.

“That’s good, that’s good. ” Wang Huai felt that he could finally relax. After some thought, he said,”Head chef Yuan, I would like to take advantage of my seniority and make a reservation for the all-donkey banquet for lunch that day. It’s a birthday party, my birthday. “

Wang Huai remembered that an important day was coming up in a few days, so he immediately decided on the banquet he had planned.

“No problem. It’s an all-donkey banquet. We currently have the Lu-style one. Is this the kind Master Wang is talking about?” Yuan Zhou confirmed.

“Yes, this is the type.” Wang Huai said.

Nowadays, everyone said that Ji province’s roasted donkey was the most famous and was a large province that ate donkeys. However, Wang Huai had been immersed in cooking for his entire life and naturally knew that Lu province was the most authentic way to cook donkey meat. Therefore, the whole donkey banquet he wanted to eat was also cooked in Lu cuisine.

“I’ve already noted it down. It’ll be fine as long as Master Wang brings the people over.” Yuan Zhou directly recorded it in the memo.

After confirming the important matter that he suddenly thought of, Wang Huai hung up the phone after having a few more small talk with Yuan Zhou.

After Yuan Zhou hung up the phone, he didn’t stop. He directly found Chen MU’s phone number and dialed it. Naturally, Chen Mu was very excited when he received Yuan Zhou’s call, especially when he knew that Yuan Zhou was in gan province recently. If not for the fact that Yuan Zhou wasn’t in the provincial capital, he would have immediately set off and rushed over.

When he heard that Yuan Zhou needed his help, he asked if he had time to meet him and have a detailed talk before he even asked what the matter was. Then, according to Yuan Zhou’s time and schedule, he set the meeting time to be on the afternoon of the day he would go back.

Yuan Zhou had told Wang Huai that he could go back on time because he had already bought the ticket for 8:00 pm on the fifth day. He could take a rest when he went back so that he could welcome the opening of the restaurant the next day with full spirit.

Previously, Yuan Zhou had promised aunt Wu that he would help her until the afternoon five days later. Therefore, he still had plenty of time, especially when Chen Mu had directly set the meeting place in Jingde town and he would come over directly from there.

In the following time, Yuan Zhou got busy every threeo’ clock. He got up early in the morning, had breakfast, and then went to learn how to make black pottery from master GE and master ju. He also discussed some knowledge about porcelain. At noon, he went to help in the kitchen of life. In the afternoon, he went to learn again. In the evening, he came back to the kitchen to cut vegetables. Finally, he had dinner in the restaurant and went back to the hotel to rest. The next day, he was busy again.

When Yuan Zhou was busy, aunt Wu and old Wang were definitely the most relaxed. The main reason was that Yuan Zhou was fast and deft in his work. He would know everything clearly when it was in his hands. For example, previously, someone had gotten a wild turtle and intended to make soup for his family. Unfortunately, old Wang had never cooked this thing before. Yuan Zhou had to chop it up and tell old Wang how to make the soup.

Therefore, on the fifth day, when she finished her work at noon, aunt Wu really couldn’t bear to see Yuan Zhou leave.

“Little Yuan, remember to come and visit your aunt Wu and uncle Wang when you have time. Don’t forget about us.” Aunt Wu held Yuan Zhou’s hand and was very reluctant to part with him. She was almost in tears.

“Little Yuan is a capable man. He definitely can’t stay here all the time. Why are you saying all this?” Old Wang’s words were directed at Auntie Wu.

“Don’t worry, aunty Wu, uncle Wang. I’ll definitely come and help when I have time. Just don’t mind me eating too much.” Yuan Zhou was also a little sad.

All good things must come to an end. Although he felt that the days here were very fulfilling, he still had a group of customers waiting to be fed.

Even Wu Hai greeted him three times a day and asked him about the arrival time of the plane by beating around the bush, saying that he was afraid that Yuan Zhou would be too tired to pick him up. It wasn’t troublesome at all. As for whether he wanted to have a midnight snack or not, only Wu Shou himself knew.

“You can only grow well if you eat more. You should eat more since you’re young. You should be worried if you don’t eat much.” Auntie Wu immediately said.

Even old Wang nodded at the side, obviously in agreement with what aunt Wu said.

Due to the reluctance of aunty Wu and old Wang, Yuan Zhou spent almost half an hour bidding farewell to them. When he finally left, he even brought along some of gan province’s specialties that old Wang had personally prepared, such as some sun-dried xiangru, black fungus, stone ear, and Yulan slices.

After bidding farewell to the enthusiastic aunty Wu and old Wang, Yuan Zhou didn’t take long to return to the hotel. As he needed to meet Chen Mu, Yuan Zhou had to extend his room for another day and planned to meet him in the room.

Yuan Zhou was staying in a suite, which was relatively large. Therefore, he didn’t feel awkward even if they met in the room.

After Yuan Zhou finished washing up and changed a set of clothes, he heard the doorbell ring.

“It must be President Chen.” Yuan Zhou checked himself and found no problem. Then, he walked to the door and intended to open it.
