Now that the clear reward was a Chinese cuisine, he had no regrets. He hadn’t even gotten all eight major Chinese cuisines yet, so it was good to have one more major cuisines.
“Phew …”
After Yuan Zhou took a deep breath and exhaled out all the turbid air accumulated in his lungs, he felt that he must be a man who had the right time, place, and people as one. It should be very good for him to turn around at this moment, so he said,””Start spinning.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the content of master’s Mission 4 in his mind began to disintegrate into light particles and spread out like Starlight. Then, they slowly combined into a huge disc with a variety of cuisines written on it, such as Shanghai cuisine, Zhejiang cuisine, Fujian cuisine, and Beijing cuisine. Each cuisines occupied a grid, and the size of each grid was not equal. According to his observation, it was determined by the number of dishes in each cuisines.
Although Zhejiang cuisine and Shanghai cuisine were adjacent to each other, the area of Zhejiang cuisine was twice the size of Shanghai cuisine.
The cuisines that Yuan Zhou already had weren’t included in the dish, but even so, there were still many cuisines on the huge round plate.
There was also a hand on it that had a very strong presence. It was much thicker than the hand on the clock. The entire hand had a face, and the tip of the needle was at least as wide as a finger, not to mention that it was even thicker.
The moment Yuan Zhou saw clearly the cuisines on the plate, the plate suddenly started to spin as if it had taken a stimulant. It started slowly and then quickly. Even if he couldn’t hear it, he could still hear the sound of the wind whistling when he saw the plate spin so fast that he couldn’t even see its afterimages.
Yuan Zhou had already been quite used to such a scene. After a while, he felt it was fine and immediately said,””Stop,” he said.
After receiving the command, the disc began to slow down. At first, afterimages could be seen, then it continued to slow down. Finally, the needle slowly spun two rounds before it stopped.
“System, what do you think we should do in this situation?” Yuan Zhou asked.
At this moment, the needle was really as stable as Mount Tai and stopped in the middle of the Fujian cuisine and Shanghai cuisine. It was really in the middle. Because of the thickness of the needle, half of the needle was on the Fujian cuisine and the other half was on the Shanghai cuisine. Even the dividing line could not be seen.
In fact, even if the pan was as thick as a needle, it meant that it couldn’t carry it. The gap between each cuisine was not small. Even if it was a little off, it could still be firmly placed in the corresponding grid. It was impossible for such a situation to occur.
However, the impossible situation happened to be encountered by Yuan Zhou.
Not to mention Yuan Zhou, even the system was silent for quite a while before it started to display,””Congratulations to the host for winning the reward of Fujian cuisine, Shanghai cuisine, and their accompanying snacks.”
Only when Yuan Zhou subconsciously asked the system to repeat it three times did he finally have a sense of reality. He had really obtained two cuisines at once. Although there was a certain connection between Shanghai cuisines, Jiangsu cuisines, and Zhejiang cuisines, the number of cuisines was also quite large.
“It seems that I have to offer a few more sets of incense to the system every time I receive a reward. It turns out that there are still benefits to eating too much incense.” Yuan Zhou was thinking about the future in his heart.
Of course, he also felt that he had suffered a great loss in the past. Fortunately, he was smart enough to finally discover his little secret. However, he would definitely not say these things out loud. It would be bad if the system had taken precautions.
He didn’t give the system a chance to calm down and said,””Receive your reward.”
Then, the turntable changed back to the Super large gift box and slowly broke down into various knowledge points. Then, it began to demonstrate to Yuan Zhou as usual.
Although Yuan Zhou already had Jiangsu cuisine and Shanghai cuisine was also within the scope of Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisines, they were still fundamentally different and had their own unique aspects. Even though Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills were already very excellent, he had only mastered one-third of the content after just looking at it briefly. More of it needed practice.
After all, cooking was never something that could be mastered just by watching.
“The sun is shining in the sky …”
The familiar Bell rang and interrupted Yuan Zhou’s thoughts that were wandering in the ocean of cooking. When he came back to his senses, he found it was time to prepare the dinner ingredients.
“I didn’t know it was so late. I didn’t expect Fujian cuisine and Shanghai cuisine to be so particular. It seems that the other cuisines that I know of do have a lot of fastidious cuisines, and few of them are lost.”
Yuan Zhou stood up and stretched his body that was a little stiff from sitting for a long time. After that, he prepared to go downstairs to the kitchen.
Previously, even if he didn’t receive the reward from other provinces, Yuan Zhou would still collect the information of various cuisines to check. In addition, he had a nominal position in many associations and could basically get whatever he wanted to see. Even if he couldn’t get it, he could just say hello. There were also many chefs who came to consult him with so-called family recipes. Therefore, he read a lot.
However, compared to the all-encompassing information provided by the system, it was really too little.
However, for Yuan Zhou, it was just something that he could get used to after spending more time. Therefore, he didn’t feel anything wrong with it.
“Speaking of which, head chef yang of Shanghai cuisine seemed to have said that he wanted to pay a visit. I wonder when head chef yang will be coming. If he can come after I get familiar with the place, it will be just in time for the new Shanghai cuisine to be served. Head chef yang should be very happy.” Yuan Zhou said.
Head chef yang Wei was a well-known figure in Shanghai cuisine. Naturally, his culinary skills were also extraordinary. However, ever since he had interacted with Yuan Zhou at head chef Yang’s knife-sealing banquet and tasted the braised deer head and other dishes prepared by him, he held Yuan Zhou in high esteem. He would personally come to Chengdu to meet Yuan Zhou at least twice a year.
One was that he could eat more in the restaurant. Although there was no Shanghai Food, Jiangsu food and Shanghai Food were of the same breath and branch. There was not much difference.
Secondly, he could talk about Shanghai cuisine with Yuan Zhou. Although Yuan Zhou always said that he didn’t have a deep understanding of Shanghai cuisine and might be laughed at, Yang Wei could still hear Yuan Zhou’s explanation of a lot of things clearly and logically. In particular, many of his opinions were quite novel and were definitely at the level of a master. However, since Yuan Zhou said that he hadn’t reached the right level yet, he could only wait.
However, ever since Yuan Zhou had taken in disciples of Hunan cuisine and Qin cuisine, Yang Wei had been looking forward to the day when his Shanghai cuisine would also have such a treatment.
As long as they became Yuan Zhou’s disciples, these excellent young chefs would make great progress in a short period of time. The gap between them and the chefs in the same batch as before was even greater, and the gap was getting bigger and bigger with the passage of time.
As a result, there was a saying that had been circulating in the cooking world since God knows when. That was,’once you enter the yuan sect, you’ll be reborn, like a carp leaping through the Dragon Gate’.
Therefore, Yang Wei couldn’t sit still for a while. He planned to visit Yuan Zhou in person and inquire when Yuan Zhou would serve the Shanghai dishes. However, Yuan Zhou was very busy. Even if he came to visit him in person, he had to inform him in advance in case of being rude.
After all, Yuan Zhou was now the well-deserved No. 1 chef in China’s cooking circle. No one had any dispute about that.
