After Yuan Zhou found nothing on the website, he seriously practiced his carving skills.

Taoxi Road is still as noisy as usual, but people passing by Yuanzhou's small shops subconsciously stop to watch, and let down their voices for fear of disturbing Yuanzhou.

In France, where the time difference between Chengdu and Rongcheng is seven hours, the time is reverted back to lunchtime in Yuanzhou, that is, four o'clock in French time.

When Chu Xiao's shop had just finished busy.

"It should be about the same time. Chu Xiao glanced at the clock in the office, then took out his mobile phone and started calling.

The phone rang only three times before it was answered.

Chu Xiao greeted: "President Zhou, I am Chu Xiao." ”

Yes, Chu Xiao's call was made to Zhou Shijie.

"Chu Xiao, how can you kid have time to call the old man and me. Zhou Shijie came from the phone with a mocking voice.

"Naturally, something is looking for you. Chu Xiao spoke the same and was unkind.

"What's the matter, you want to come back and pass by Taoxi Road to invite me to dinner?" Zhou Shijie's tone was even more ridiculous this time.

And Chu Xiao didn't realize it, and his voice was still as arrogant as ever: "No, I haven't had time recently." ”

"Then what are you looking for the old man to do with me. Zhou Shijie said.

"Registration is now open for next year's Global Chef Meetup. Chu Xiao reminded.

"I know that. Zhou Shijie nodded, indicating that he understood.

"That guy should have signed up. Chu Xiao said firmly.

"That, you said that kid from Yuan Zhou?" Zhou Shijie didn't react to who Chu Xiao was talking about, but after thinking about it, he knew that it should be Yuan Zhou.

After all, only Yuan Zhou is worthy of Chu Xiao's attention among the young generation in China, and he made this call on purpose.

"Hmm. Chu Xiao didn't deny it, and hummed lightly.

"He doesn't know about this yet, this kid Yuan Zhou only has cooking skills in his heart, and he is not interested in any other competitions or the like, that kid is even more boring than an old man like me. What Zhou Shijie said was all complaints, but the tone was difficult to hide pride and pride.

Chu Xiao was quiet for a moment and didn't speak.

"That kid in Yuanzhou is still done on the road in China. Zhou Shijie paused, and then said.

Obviously, Zhou Shijie means that he hopes that Yuanzhou will go steadily, slowly, and not so anxious for Yuanzhou to develop internationally.

After all, Yuan Zhou is such a genius, what if he can't figure it out and flies again, Zhou Shijie now treats Yuan Zhou as a treasure.

"I think his goal should be not only domestic, but also his goal to promote Chinese cuisine. Chu Xiao heard Zhou Shijie's intention that he didn't want Yuan Zhou to participate, but he knew Zhou Shijie's goal the most, and said instead.

"That's nature, this is the wish of our generation of chefs, after all, our food culture has a long history, so naturally we should let those hairy people see it. Speaking of this, Zhou Shijie's tone was much firmer.

"This exchange meeting is just the right time for him to be recognized. Chu Xiao said.

"What you said makes sense, I'll ask Yuan Xiaozi what he means. Zhou Shijie pondered for a moment before he said.

"Remember to inform me if you promised, I'm looking forward to it. Chu Xiao's tone was confident, and he firmly believed that Yuan Zhou would agree.

"Okay, I know you're a kid. Zhou Shijie scolded with a smile.

"President Xie Zhou. Chu Xiao didn't say much, and hung up the phone directly.

"Yuan Zhou, I don't know what amazing cooking skills you will have at next year's meeting. Chu Xiao stood in the office and looked at the high-rise buildings outside the window, and couldn't help muttering to himself.

And Zhou Shijie, who put down the phone, was rare to stay for a while.

"This competition can be famous, but Yuan Xiaozi is young after all. Zhou Shijie didn't want Yuan Zhou to be distracted by other cooking skills.

For example, those cooking competitions that invited Yuan Zhou to participate, or cooking exchanges, there were not a hundred but two hundred, but Zhou Shijie pushed them all.

Only some old ones that are worth going to Yuan Zhou, Zhou Shijie will tell Yuan Zhou, and then let him choose for himself.

"Forget it, it depends on Yuan Xiaozi's own choice, when the time comes, I will be by his side, and others will have to weigh it when they dig the foot of the wall. Zhou Shijie immediately thought of a solution.

Yes, Zhou Shijie doesn't want Yuan Zhou to be distracted by other things, and the other is that Yuan Zhou is too young and afraid of being poached by foreign restaurants.

After all, the combination of Chinese and Western is not only a combination of Chinese medicine, but now even cooking has a combination of Chinese and Western, Zhou Shijie is naturally worried.

"This kid is so curious, don't be interested in Western food. Said so, but Zhou Shijie still made a note on the itinerary and prepared to take time to go to the small store in Yuanzhou.

Time flies quickly, that is, at the speed of Yuanzhou's ghosts, the Qingming Riverside map is still not finished.

"Three hours, nineteen minutes, and thirty seconds, only a third of the carving, it still seems too slow. Yuan Zhou frowned, a little dissatisfied with his speed.

"The Qingming Shanghe map is 25.2 centimeters wide and 528.7 centimeters long, and now it is only 123 centimeters carved and it is really slow. Yuan Zhou looked up at the picture in his hand, feeling a pity.

"It should be almost the same when you can finish carving in the afternoon. Yuan Zhou cut off the engraving of the Qingming Shanghe map, and then received it in the small courtyard of the tavern.

Obviously, this painting Yuan Zhou did not intend to give it away, after all, this is an unfinished product.

After cleaning up the door of the store, Yuan Zhou returned to the store and began to prepare the ingredients for dinner.

The doors of the store were wide open, and soon people began to line up.

But at the top of the list, there are three very eye-catching people, but these three people don't seem to know each other but have one thing in common.

All three were men, two with glasses, and the other without glasses was a small, squinted, skinny looking a little energetic, with a plastic bag in his hand.

And one of the glasses with glasses is very special, the lens is an irregular shape, and the lens side is not wrapped around the frame, only the two sides have frames, the whole person is wearing a very trendy look, at first glance is a trendy man, he is holding a pink lunch box in his hand.

The other one with glasses was much more ordinary, he was wearing an ordinary white shirt and black trousers, and he looked very sven, but this man also had a plastic bag in his hand with something inside.

And there are more than a dozen people holding things in their hands like this, and there are more than a dozen people in the queue at the back, which is quite a lot.

Among them, the high-spirited person was lined up behind Wuhai.

"The guide said, this noodle is super delicious, I'm looking forward to it, I'm looking forward to it. The man stood behind Wuhai and thought in pieces.

"By the way, I don't seem to have brought boiling water, how to make noodles, what to do with boiling water, will Boss Yuan provide it?" ”

"How can I eat instant noodles without boiling water, what should I do. ”

From the beginning of anticipation to the later chattering about boiling water, this person finally attracted Wuhai's attention.

"Compass does not provide boiling water. Wu Hai turned his head, touched his mustache and said with a serious face.
