Chapter 2540: Studying after eating

The man was in his forties. He greeted Yuan Zhou quite naturally with a smile on his dark and thin face. He slightly bent his waist and appeared to be very courteous. It was obvious that he respected Yuan Zhou very much.
“Head chef Yuan, long time no see. Sorry for disturbing you.”
“Head chef Gu, long time no see. I didn’t expect to see you in Chengdu. Welcome, welcome.” Yuan Zhou said.
The person who came was Gu Xun, a famous chef in Shanghai cuisine. He was not as good as head chef yang Wei, but he was also an Outstanding Chef among the middle-aged generation. He was considered a leader in Shanghai cuisine.
Originally, Yuan Zhou wouldn’t have had much impression of it. However, after he had completed the blessing mission of the system, he had gone to Shanghai for a transfer flight and then met Gu Xun. In addition, head chef Gu’s questions at the Gaogou conference were also quite outstanding. He had reviewed everything and naturally had a deep impression of it.
While the two of them were reminiscing, Yang Wei was a little surprised,”you know each other? I also said that I would introduce this kid to you. Besides you, he is the hope of our Shanghai cuisine. ”
Because Shanghai cuisine was all-inclusive, it could even be said that it had a wide range of strong points. Because of this, there weren’t many people at the level of master. Yang Wei himself was considered one of the top among them. He was good at both local Western food and the traditional dishes of Shanghai cuisine. He could be said to be at the level of a Big Boss. Of course, he definitely couldn’t be compared with Yuan Zhou. Otherwise, he would definitely be thrown away.
The complex and ever-changing environment had caused the Shanghai cuisine to be in a state of shortage. The old ones were already old, and the young ones could not completely stand out. This was the current situation.
Therefore, Yang Wei had no choice but to be thick-skinned and carefully choose the dishes. He brought the selected Gu Xun to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant to gain some experience. Yuan Zhou was well-known in the cooking world for being good at teaching his disciples. If he could learn even a little bit of it, it would be a great profit.
Firstly, he was embarrassed. Secondly, he really wanted to maintain a sense of mystery. He hoped that Yuan Zhou would be more interested and say a few more words to Gu Xun. Therefore, Yang Wei had kept it from Yuan Zhou at the beginning. However, he didn’t expect that it would cause such a misunderstanding and thus became a little speechless.
“I’ve met head chef Yuan twice. He’s a very open-minded Grandmaster.” Gu Xun said with full of admiration.
If one didn’t look at his overly mature face, they would look quite harmonious.
“Hahaha, I didn’t expect such a coincidence. I’m really sorry, head chef Yuan.” Yang Wei was even more embarrassed.
......
This was like picking an orange in someone else’s courtyard while covering your face, but who knew that the owner would recognize you at a glance. This was embarrassing.
“It’s really a coincidence. It’s been a long time since we last met in Shanghai. This time, head chef Gaogou Huigu didn’t come. ”
While leading the two of them to the small courtyard, Yuan Zhou made small talk with them. The Gaogou conference had already come to an end, but he didn’t see Gu Xun’s extraordinary performance.
“I was in the training camp at that time and didn’t have time to participate. I’ll definitely participate next time. I’ve already made sufficient preparations.” Gu Xun said sincerely.
No one knew whether it was intentional or not, but apart from the respect that he had seen in Shanghai, Gu Xun had always been treating himself as a disciple when he faced Yuan Zhou this time. Yuan Zhou had yet to discover that.
“I didn’t manage to prepare my surprise. May I know what the surprise you mentioned last night is?” Yang Wei asked.
He was an impetuous person. As soon as he sat down, he immediately asked this question without caring about anything else. The surprise prepared by Yuan Zhou was something that no one would be able to sit still.
“I will tell head chef yang later.” Yuan Zhou said calmly.
“Alright,” he said. He originally wanted to say something more, but his attention was suddenly attracted by a strong fragrance. Although it was light, there was a sweet fragrance that couldn’t be ignored. Yang Wei immediately focused his attention on Yuan Zhou’s hand.
He was pouring tea into three cups. Although Yuan Zhou moved very quickly, he didn’t seem to be in a hurry due to Yuan Zhou’s calm manner. With a glance, Yang Wei saw the beautiful amber tea.
Gu Xun was standing in the middle of the two. When Yuan Zhou invited Gu Xun to sit just now, he insisted on not taking the seat. Yang Wei also said it was up to him. Therefore, Gu Xun directly found a good seat in the middle of the two people. The distance between them was so close that he was even surrounded by the fragrance.
“Top-grade golden Junmei! Head chef Yuan’s tea leaves are too good. It’s my honor to have Jin Junmei taste such quality tea. ” Yang Wei’s face was filled with joy.
As Yuan Zhou pushed the tea to him, he smiled even more happily and almost became a fat man weighing 180 pounds.
Previously, Yang Wei had heard that Yuan Zhou had top-quality tea here. However, he had been here several times, yet he had never had the chance to drink the tea. It was the only time he had the chance to drink the tea. Although the quality of the tea was very good, he also had the same quality. Therefore, he was still a little disappointed.
Of course, his most important purpose was to exchange Shanghai cuisine. Even if Yang Wei was a little disappointed, it didn’t overshadow his gains.
Today, he was actually going to drink this top-grade Jin Junmei. Only then did Yang Wei know that the rumors in the cooking circle that Yuan Zhou’s restaurant not only had top-grade ingredients, but also everything else was top-grade were true. Just by looking at the beautiful color of this tea and smelling the lingering fragrance, he knew it was absolutely top-grade without even drinking it.
“It is indeed Jin Junmei. I heard that head chef yang likes black tea. You can try it to see how good its quality is.” Yuan Zhou said.
Although Jin Junmei was a new species that had only appeared in recent years, its quality was indeed very high, especially the good quality ones, which made many tea lovers go after it like ducks.
“Hahaha, I like it, I like it. I, old Yang, am really happy today. I didn’t expect to be able to drink such a delicious Jin Junmei here.”
Yang Wei said as he picked up the cup and took a sip. His actions seemed rough, but the details revealed his cautiousness. With just a small sip, the rich honey fragrance reverberated in his mouth, and the sweet and smooth taste spread along the tip of his tongue to his heart. Even his recently anxious heart seemed to be slowly smoothed out by this sweetness.
“Good tea!” Yang Wei couldn’t help but praise loudly.
Gu Xun, who was standing at the side, was also holding his own cup and tasting it carefully, as if he cherished it very much.
The following exquisite tea and snacks naturally won the attention of Yang Wei and Gu Xun. If Yang Wei didn’t remember that Yuan Zhou’s time was very precious, he would have spent more time immersed in the ocean of tea fragrance and snacks and couldn’t extricate himself.
While drinking the delicious tea and eating the delicious pastries, Gu Xun talked to Yuan Zhou about the two new Shanghai cuisines that he had been researching recently. Occasionally, Gu Xun could even get in the way of a conversation. For a time, the small courtyard seemed to be very comfortable.
The sun didn’t come out in the morning, and there was a light rain last night. Some places where the grass was lush were still a bit wet. In the midst of the fragrance of tea, Yang Wei was very relaxed, and his thoughts were much more active than usual.
Sure enough, one could only learn after eating their fill. What the ancients said was quite reasonable. Yang Wei looked at the empty plate secretly and then touched his stomach. Then, he focused his attention on the conversation with Yuan Zhou again.
