Chapter 1300: Thank you, system

As mentioned before, chefs usually had a hobby or side job. Zhang Yan’s hobby was bracelet, such as agate, Amber, and Jade, but his favorite was still wood, and the status of yellow Rosewood in bracelet was too high.

It had been said that there were not many old materials of yellow Rosewood in the world, and the biggest one they had found so far was only a short section of an arm.

However, Yuan Zhou took out four 15-meter long heartwood, and they were even 1000-year-old. If Zhang Yan, who liked to eat heartwood, knew about this, he would definitely be so excited that his blood vessels would burst.

Once he knew that Yuan Zhou had chopped down such a national treasure wood and even made it into a bowl rack, it wouldn’t be a matter of dismantling tables and houses anymore. Even if it was just a bowl rack and even if Zhang Yan was a chef, he would probably have the intention to kill Zhou Shijie.

That’s right. If Zhang Yan wanted to kill someone, it would naturally be his old nemesis, Zhou Shijie. Even if he was furious, he still had some rationality in his heart. After all, Yuan Zhou was the hope of the younger generation of chefs. As for Zhou Shijie, this old man, he was of no use to them. Killing the sacrificial wood was just the right thing to do.

Zhou Shijie was sure that if Zhang Yan knew about this, he would definitely do so.

Zhou Shijie seemed to have thought of his own ending. He couldn’t help but say again,””Little Yuan, you have to keep this a secret. You can’t let that old man Zhang Ji know about this.”

“He really loves skewers.” Zhou Shijie emphasized.

“I won’t say it, but won’t President Zhang know?” Yuan Zhou paused for a while and then said.

Upon hearing that, Zhou Shijie stopped. It was not that Zhang Yan had paid as much attention to Yuan Zhou as he did. He only didn’t know about it because he wasn’t familiar with Carpenter Lian. But who could guarantee that he wouldn’t know about it in the future?

“I’m giving President Zhang a string of beads. ” Yuan Zhou said.

“No way. That old man is dreaming. He’s trying to take advantage of you, a junior. No way.” On hearing that, Zhou Shijie directly refused.

“Alright, you don’t have to worry about this. I was just saying. However, you really shouldn’t tell anyone about this. This thing is too precious.” Zhou Shijie pointed at the wooden box on the table and said.

“Yes, this is for me to store the plates and bowls. It’s not available in the shop.” Yuan Zhou said.

“That’s good. I’ll add two more security guards to the front and back of Taoxi road. ” Zhou Shijie thought for a while and then said.

“I don’t think so. There are already security guards around Taoxi road.” Yuan Zhou shook his head and said.

Yuan Zhou still believed in the system’s security very much. After all, the famous food thief had returned in defeat last time.

“No, there are only a few people there. When your wood is exposed, these few people won’t be of any use.” Zhou Shijie shook his head repeatedly and then said,””I’ll find you a few retired Special Forces soldiers. They should be of some use.”

“It’s fine, uncle Zhou,” Yuan Zhou said.

“Do you know how much this small box is worth?” Zhou Shijie rolled his eyes at Yuan Zhou and then said.

“...” Yuan Zhou didn’t say anything, but Zhou Shijie said,””A house? just the scraps you mentioned are enough to buy a house. How much do you think your five bowl racks are worth?”

“The locks in my shop are pretty good.” Yuan Zhou could only take a step back and say that.

As the saying goes, a wall in a dead-end otaku, a house in the city center. It was even more impressive here. Yuan Zhou put on airs and went to the n suite in the city center.

“Alright, I know you’re afraid of trouble. The people I’ve found won’t bother you, so just focus on cooking.” Zhou Shijie waved his hand and said.

“Don’t worry too much. My place is not open to the public, so not many people know about it. ” Yuan Zhou said.

“I know what to do,” Zhou Shijie nodded his head. Then, he took the box and touched the surface of the box fondly,””Uncle Zhou, I’ll be thick-skinned and accept your box then.”

“You’re welcome. You’re my uncle Zhou. ” Yuan Zhou said earnestly.

“I’ll pick you up for tea tomorrow afternoon. ” Zhou Shijie said without even raising his head.

“Alright, I’ll go back first.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

“Do you want little Zhong to send you?” Zhou Shijie raised his head and asked.

“No need,” Yuan Zhou shook his head.

“Alright, I won’t keep you here. Be careful on your way back.” Zhou Shijie nodded his head and then waved his hand.

“Okay, see you tomorrow, uncle Zhou.” After Yuan Zhou said that, he walked out of the office directly.

Zhou Shijie nodded his head and watched Yuan Zhou walk out of the office. Then, he lowered his head and stroked the box gently, mumbling,””As expected of a thousand-year-old yellow Rosewood. Even I, a layman, can’t bear to part with it. This feeling is amazing.”

On the other side, Yuan Zhou, who had just left the office, was directly sent downstairs by Zhong Lili and got a taxi. Only after that did Zhong Lili go upstairs again.

While getting on the bus, Yuan Zhou suddenly thought of something. He asked the driver to turn around and go to another street. That Street was the street of incense and ingots. As the name suggested, this Street was close to a temple in Chengdu that was flourishing with incense offerings. This Street was selling incense and ingots.

Yuan Zhou got off the car and bought a box of incense from the largest incense shop that he often went to. After that, he took a taxi and went back.

Yuan Zhou often patronized this restaurant, because he bought the incense here to pay tribute to his parents. But this time, he bought a different kind of incense.

As soon as the car arrived at Taoxi road, Yuan Zhou paid the driver and got off the car. Then, he went back to his restaurant from the back alley. The moment he entered the restaurant, Yuan Zhou went upstairs with the incense.

Not until he put down the incense did Yuan Zhou go downstairs again.

“It’s 4:30 in the afternoon. There’s still some time. Let’s pick the wood first.” Yuan Zhou checked the time and then went to the first floor of the pub.

The first floor of the tavern was very large, and there were still wine barrels in the four corners. However, on the side of the wall, there were some long things wrapped tightly in grease and cloth. They were bowl stands that had been prepared but not filled.

There was now an ordinary wooden shelf near the door, on which three things wrapped in greasy cloth were placed.

Yuan Zhou walked over and directly opened a medium-sized packet, which contained bits and pieces of wood. They were the remaining wood of the bowl rack.

The other packages were also made of wood. The smallest package was a very small piece of wood. The small one could probably only be used to make beads and bracelets. The largest package was made of Rosewood shavings. The medium size package was made of slightly larger wood, which could also be used to make small boxes and other small things.

Yuan Zhou selected a cylindrical wood from the pile and then took it out after gesturing for a while.

“This piece should be about the same size.” Yuan Zhou selected the wood and then wrapped the cloth with oil again.

As it was getting late, Yuan Zhou first took the wood and placed it on the table in the backyard. He didn’t sculpt immediately, but went back to his room to wash up.

After all, it was time to prepare the ingredients for dinner.

After washing up and changing his clothes, Yuan Zhou muttered to himself when he went downstairs,””I think this is a good way to thank the system.”

That’s right. Yuan Zhou had thought of a way to thank the system and prepared to carry it out after the dinner.

“I hope the system won’t be too touched by then.” Yuan Zhou said inwardly.
