Chapter 1106: Yuan Zhou’s token

“The ceremony officially begins.” At threeo’ clock sharp, the referrer, Zhou Shijie, officially announced the start of the ceremony. The guests at the scene didn’t interact with each other anymore. They all looked at each other. “Chef Lord,” Zhou Shijie said. There were too many origins of the kitchen God. Some said that he was the son of old Tong, the descendant of the Yellow Emperor, and some said that he was su Jili. The kitchen God master Cheng was worshiping now was called Zhang dan, a corrupt official in ancient times. He had to search for delicious food every day, causing the people to live in poverty. Later, he was slapped onto the kitchen stove by an immortal and became the kitchen God. He could only watch others eat delicious food, but he couldn’t eat it himself. That was why the chefs of Sichuan Province worshipped the kitchen King, not for protection, nor for the chef himself. In fact, they were jealous of the kitchen King because he couldn’t eat anything good. At the same time, they worshipped the ancestors that the kitchen King had been jealous of for generations. The sudden change in the style of Sichuan might be related to the folk customs of Sichuan. Master Cheng muttered,””Greedy heart and insatiable appetite, hands wrongly placed, eyes dry …”, He bowed twice. “Bow again,” Zhou Shijie shouted at the right time. If he bowed again, he wouldn’t be bowing to the kitchen King anymore. Instead, he would walk to Yuan Zhou step by step. Yuan Zhou was sitting. “Disciple, little sister Cheng Zhao, please accept this bow from me.” Master Cheng kowtowed meticulously and kowtowed three times. Well … No wonder she kept calling head chef Cheng master Cheng. Cheng Zhao was indeed a little embarrassed to say it. Yuan Zhou stood up and helped master Cheng up, which meant that he had indeed accepted the bow. In ancient times, there was a saying that “reincarnating into a master is like reincarnation.” This bow represented that one was completely handed over to the master to be disciplined. “The ceremony is complete, the invitation to pay respects to the master.” Zhou Shijie took the apprenticeship invitation from master Cheng. “Great master …” Zhou Shijie read the entire apprenticeship invitation once. This matter should have been done by master Cheng’s parents. However, master Cheng’s parents were old and it was not appropriate to disturb them. Therefore, Zhou Shijie, the chairman, read it on their behalf. “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a ceremony. ” Zhang Ye sighed. “It has been a long time. Now, the more formal way of acknowledging a master is to offer tea and give out red packets.” Head chef Mei sighed. “In today’s society, there’s no respect for teachers anymore. They’ve thrown away everything that our ancestors left behind.” A certain chef interjected. “Both. The master now doesn’t look like a master. If the master doesn’t look like a master, then you can’t expect the disciple to be like a disciple.” Said head chef Mei. “I’m more inclined to agree with the view of both sides. Besides, I also think that what our ancestors left behind is spirit and belief. There’s no need to be persistent about things that are too superficial.” Zhang Ye said,”it’s actually good enough to just give out a red packet and offer some tea.” “I firmly believe that the rules set by the ancestors should be followed.” The chef insisted on his opinion. “However, to be able to see such a traditional acknowledgment ceremony again, it’s quite nostalgic,” Zhang Ye said. His words stopped the argument between head chef Mei and the other chef. There was no problem with following the rules of the ancestors and the point of view itself. Whether it was following or changing with the times, it just depended on the position of the individual. Master Cheng carried a cup of tea and poured it for Yuan Zhou. The tea leaves were his own precious collection, the water was also taken by master Cheng himself, and he was also the one who made the tea. “Good tea.” After Yuan Zhou took a sip, he put the teacup aside and stood up to go back to the restaurant. As for Yuan Zhou’s behavior, the chefs who had experienced it before felt it was normal, while those who had never experienced it felt it was strange. “I wonder what little Yuan has prepared.” “I still remember when I was acknowledging my master. Master turned around and went back into the room. I was anxiously waiting for him.” Zhang Yan and Zhou Shijie discussed in a low voice. The two of them recalled their experience of being apprenticed to a master when they were young. Yuan Zhou was going to pick up two things. When acknowledging a master, the master had to give the disciple a token. Yuan Zhou had prepared for this. Moreover, he was going to pick up two things. All in all, master Cheng attached great importance to the matter of acknowledging a master. Yuan Zhou also had to do the same. Although the mission issued by the system was an opportunity, the way to do so was to take in disciples. He might only take in one disciple in his entire life. Master Cheng stood there respectfully and waited for Yuan Zhou to come out of the restaurant. About half a minute later, Yuan Zhou packed it up. “This set of knives is an ice knife I made myself. If it’s well preserved, it can be used three times.” It was packed in a long red box. Master Cheng received it excitedly. He was so excited that his hands even started to shake. After all, it was an ice knife personally forged by Yuan Zhou. Due to the improvement in his ice sculpting skills, the ice saber he made this time was much better than the one he made in Japan, both in terms of shape and durability. Master Cheng was very eager to open it immediately. However, it would be impolite to open it in person, so he held back. “The second thing is my cooking notes on Sichuan cuisine for the past two years.” Yuan Zhou took out a small notebook. He always had the habit of taking notes. “Thank you, master.” Master Cheng put the long box away properly and then took the notebook with both hands. It was quite thin and didn’t have many pages, but even so, this small book was very valuable. Not only was master Cheng excited, but all the chefs at the side also wanted to see Yuan Zhou’s cooking notes. The notes were no less than the unique skills of the martial arts world. “I’ll give you the details after we’re done. If you have any questions about cooking in the future, just ask me directly. I’ll try my best to answer them.” Yuan Zhou wouldn’t be gaudy, so he said the most straightforward thing. Master Cheng nodded his head like pounding garlic. Although he didn’t quite understand what it was, he wondered if it was some special cooking skill. The ceremony ended. “Congratulations, little Yuan. You’ve accepted a good disciple.” “I also want to congratulate you, master Cheng. You have a very awesome master.” After Zhou Shijie finished his words, Yuan Zhou noticed that the system had also tacitly acknowledged the status. In the system’s eyes, master Cheng was already his apprentice. “Little Yuan, go upstairs and change your clothes before you come down. I’ll introduce you to some people.” Zhou Shijie said. Although the apprenticeship ceremony had ended, the gathering today hadn’t ended yet. As the main character of the gathering, Yuan Zhou definitely had to say a few words to the lively Taoxi road. Yuan Zhou’s clothes were indeed too cumbersome. Therefore, he nodded his head and accepted Zhou Shijie’s arrangement. Then, he looked at master Cheng who was waiting for his instructions at the side. “You should also put your things down first,” he said. “I know, master.” Master Cheng answered. Yuan Zhou went up to the second floor. After the figure disappeared, Zhou Shijie immediately said,””Master Cheng, let me have a look at the cooking stick notes that little Yuan gave you.” “I’m also very curious. Let me take a look too. ” Zhang Ye also came over. Zhou Shijie and Zhang Yan had a good relationship with master Cheng. In fact, some of them who were not so close also wanted to take a look at Yuan Zhou’s cooking notes. Of course, he wasn’t trying to steal it. He was just curious. Master Cheng was also straightforward. He flipped to the next page to satisfy the curiosity of Zhou Shijie and Zhang Yan. And then, [Improvement of twice-cooked pork Experiment 1] page 7 Kung Pao Chicken: basic ingredient changes page 8> 11 Kung Pao Chicken, fried chicken with soy sauce, and spicy chicken, 12 13 …… The strange taste of the strange-tasting chicken: improved 856-858 Dan dan noodles, a comparison of the five kneading techniques 859-861 Dan dan noodles flame temperature observation: 862-867 Research on the best seasoning of dan dan noodles 8x8x870 Dan dan noodles’s noodles research 871-875 ……] Master Cheng turned one page after another and found that this notebook was just a table of contents!
