Chapter 2684: The new hobby of the owner of the provisional noodle shop

Translator: 549690339

Only Yin ya would bring back hand cream and a hand mask for her fiancé after her business trip. She was the only one in the family.

This was excusable. Just like the embroiderers, a chef’s hands were also very important.

Many ingredients needed to be carefully cleaned and processed, as well as to feel the ingredients. Calluses or bristles on the hands would damage the appearance of the ingredients, which would then affect the taste and texture of the final dish.

As a future master chef, Yuan Zhou was very concerned about his hands. He had been used to doing everything himself. If he didn’t protect his hands well, he would definitely damage the ingredients. Therefore, he usually paid great attention to the maintenance of his hands.

The hand cream that was usually used was specially customized. After all, as a chef, not only did he have to keep his hands soft and tender, but he also had to keep them from having other flavors. It would be bad if the ingredients were contaminated with other flavors.

This time, the hand cream that Yin ya found in this Chinese medicine Hall had a pretty good reputation. Due to the cumbersome manufacturing process and some precious materials, the production was not high and only acquaintances could buy it. It wasn’t mass-produced. If she hadn’t found it by accident, she wouldn’t have found it.

After Yin ya tried it for nearly a week, she felt it was very suitable for Yuan Zhou. Therefore, she brought it back and gave it to Yuan Zhou as a gift.

Yuan Zhou lowered his head and looked at his own slender and fair hands. Each of them was distinct without any blemishes or calluses. He didn’t need any filter to beautify his face and could directly make a hand model. Then he looked at Yin ya’s expectant face or nodded her head to show that she would like to have a look.

Not to mention that there were really people who came to Yuan Zhou to be a hand model. The price was quite good. However, what Yuan Zhou was thinking about was his cooking skills. As a future master chef and a soon-to-be chef Saint, he must have style. Hand models and the like were not suitable for him. Therefore, he refused them directly.

With Yin ya’s return, Yuan Zhou was in a very good mood. Not only the customers who came for dinner in the evening found that, but even the neighbors who greeted Yuan Zhou the next morning felt that he was in a very good mood.

A man would definitely be in a good mood after eating and drinking to his heart’s content. Everyone who should know knew what was going on, so everyone had a tacit understanding.

Today, Yuan Zhou left the restaurant five minutes earlier for the purpose of going to the provisional noodle restaurant.

“Boss, it’s number one. Come and pay.” Yuan Zhou started to say loudly from the door, fearing that the boss couldn’t hear him while cooking the noodles inside.

“Coming, coming.” The boss replied as he came out with a beautiful notebook.

Yuan Zhou wrote down two bowls of instant noodles every day and had made an appointment with the boss to come and pay the bill on the 1st of every month. In order to better fit Yuan Zhou’s style of doing things, the boss didn’t use his phone or computer to record the bill, but instead used a notebook to record Yuan Zhou’s consumption.

In the past, the boss could still change the things he sold from time to time. Today, he was selling sweet water noodles. After a while, he might be selling cold noodles. The supermarket might open in a while. It was a wise saying of the boss to keep fresh at all times.

Ever since he opened the provisional noodle restaurant, the boss couldn’t change the food anymore. At most, he could change the custard or the type of noodles. It couldn’t be compared with the past.

The boss then focused his attention on the bookkeeping book that he had prepared for Yuan Zhou and consoled him.

Every booklet was the size of a palm, so the patterns on it were naturally different. Today, it might be a few beautiful characters in a girl’s comic. Next month, it might be a photo of a quiet and peaceful landscape, or a painting of a still vase with flowers. He had already changed four or five booklets, but there was no time for Lei Tong.

There was a bunch of lilac dried flowers on the surface of the book that he took out today. Together with the light blue Book, it looked very beautiful, simple, and elegant.

Yuan Zhou didn’t have much knowledge about flowers. However, since he had to prepare surprises for Yin ya often, he could tell at a glance that they were supposed to be air-dried forget-me-not flowers.

“The accounts for last month are all here. Boss Yuan, take a look and see if they are correct.” The boss passed the notebook to Yuan Zhou to check very straightforwardly.

Except for Yuan Zhou’s leave of absence, the rest of the time was recorded. Basically, there would be no change. In fact, Yuan Zhou had told the boss to record it when he asked for leave.

However, the boss said that it was a matter of principle that he couldn’t remember anything when Yuan Zhou wasn’t around. Even if he wanted to do a good deed, he couldn’t do it by himself. That was not appropriate. Therefore, Yuan Zhou kept the habit of telling the boss to remember the noodles every day.

“Hua la, Hua la”

Yuan Zhou received it and checked it carefully before saying to the boss solemnly,””No problem. It’s indeed that much. I’ll transfer the money to you.”

While saying that, he took out his phone and opened the interface to operate it. Normally, Yuan Zhou wouldn’t bring his phone to run, but today was an exception.

With the same serious attitude, the boss took out his phone and checked the money transferred by Yuan Zhou. After he found no problem, he said to Yuan Zhou,””Boss Yuan, the account for last month has been cleared. No problem.”

“Remember to note down today’s order to use instant noodles. I’ll take my leave first.”

Seeing that everything was done, Yuan Zhou said goodbye to the boss and then turned around and ran outside. In a short while, he disappeared from the boss’s sight.

The boss watched Yuan Zhou until he couldn’t see him anymore before he returned to the kitchen and continued cooking the noodles. The hot water in the cooking barrel was already boiling. White water flowers appeared one after another, indicating that the water had been boiled. The steam rose into white mist, covering most of the kitchen with white mist, which seemed to add a bit of fairy-like air.

Yuan Zhou also went around the street to the back alley and entered from the back door. He first went upstairs to take a bath quietly. After all, Yin ya hadn’t woken up yet. Plus, she had a day off after coming back from her business trip. Naturally, he didn’t want to wake her up. Therefore, his movements were especially gentle.

When he went downstairs to the kitchen, Yuan Zhou was a little puzzled. What kind of breakfast should he make? that was a problem.

Recently, Yuan Zhou had already gone through all the dishes of various cuisines in China and almost raised his level. However, some dishes weren’t on the menu yet and he didn’t want to cook them now. He had to find a suitable time and present them to the customers as a surprise.

It was the duty of a qualified boss to create surprises for his customers at any time. Yuan Zhou had always done it very well.

“How about shumai? I haven’t made it in a long time.” Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then had an idea.

Kneading the dough, rolling the skin, and making the filling. Yuan Zhou was very familiar with the process. Very soon, everything was prepared in an orderly manner.

The customers also started to arrive at the restaurant one after another and line up. With Wu Hai and Mao Xiong here, the first and second place would not be given away. The best result for the other customers would be the third place.

The third place was not something that ordinary people could get. Most of the time, the third person was Zhou Xi. Otherwise, Zheng Jiawei would also be in the same position.

Today, the third place had been changed. His surname was MA instead of Zhou. Young MA was really lucky today. He invited a few good friends to eat together. He was so lucky that he was ranked third.

“Looks like I can go buy a lottery ticket today.”

Xiao Ma felt that he might have burned the right incense today. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so lucky to grab the seat that many diners dreamed of.
