Indeed, Yuan Zhou knew nothing about the contest of the Chef's Association of Sichuan Province . He still wanted to have a chance to be well-known in the province, but not with this kind of opportunity .
As for why Yuan Zhou knew nothing about this contest, it was fairly simple .
Chairman Zhou naturally wouldn't invite Yuan Zhou personally for these kinds of petty things .
Lee Yanyi had his own reasons and definitely wouldn't tell Yuan Zhou about this kind of information . After all, in his opinion, this was only a trivial contest of the next generation, even if it was actually a provincial contest .
It was more understandable for Li Minghui . How could he voluntarily invite Yuan Zhou to attend the contest? He couldn't even invite him to be the judge .
It was as funny as inviting Chu Xiao, the youngest Michelin Three Star chef, to attend the contest .
As for why the judges didn't invite Yuan Zhou, it was simpler . After all, a high-level chef such as Chu Xiao wouldn't have time to attend such an insignificant contest .
As a result, this was the situation that happened .
During the interval after breakfast and before lunch, Yuan Zhou put on the Han Chinese Clothing embroidered with lotus flowers as usual and came to the door to prepare sculpting .
"Hi . Are you Boss Yuan?" A man dressed in a business suit and leather shoes took two steps forward and asked politely .
"Yes, I am . " In front of others, Yuan Zhou subconsciously kept his face taut before nodding his head .
"You are really busy . I have waited here for you for two hours . " This person said gently and politely . He didn't flaunt when he said he had waited for two hours, but contrarily appeared excited upon seeing Yuan Zhou .
"What's the matter?" Yuan Zhou stood up and asked .
"Yes, I indeed have something to talk to you . Otherwise, I wouldn't have come over to bother you . " This person appeared older than Yuan Zhou, but he used a very polite salutation when greeting Yuan Zhou in a natural and harmonious manner .
"What's the matter?" Instead of addressing his greeting, Yuan Zhou asked straightforwardly .
"Here's the thing . My name is Liu Xinming and I'm a businessman doing small business . I heard Boss Tong gave her store to you . I want to ask how much are you prepared to sell it . " Liu Xinming, namely the man dressed in business suit and leather shoes, brought out his own purpose in one breath .
He simply came here for Boss Tong's dry cleaning shop next to Yuan Zhou's restaurant . In this case, he naturally would be courteous to Yuan Zhou .
However, there was another reason for Liu Xinming to be courteous to Yuan Zhou . He had done preliminary market research and knew it was Yuan Zhou who brought prosperity to this side street . If he wanted to do business here, he must be very courteous to Yuan Zhou .
"I never intended to sell it . " Yuan Zhou refused flatly .
"I know you got this store for than a month ago, but you neither decorate it nor open it . That's why I'm asking . Just tell me a price and let's discuss about it . Alright?" Liu Xinming didn't lose heart because of Yuan Zhou's refusal .
"No need . It's not a matter of money . " Yuan Zhou said cleanly .
Speaking of the matter of money, Yuan Zhou felt very proud in the heart .
Ever since Yuan Zhou knew these words, Yuan Zhou had wanted to say that out . And now, he finally got this opportunity .
"Okay . This is my name card . Please keep it . If you want to sell that store later, remember to consider me . Sorry for bothering you, Mr . Yuan . " Liu Xinming handed his name card to Yuan Zhou courteously .
"Okay, but I won't sell it . " Yuan Zhou received the name card and said earnestly .
"Then treat it as making a friend . Yeah, making a friend . " Liu Xinming remained smiling enthusiastically and then left .
Yuan Zhou put away the name card . Though he wouldn't call him, he still kept it well . This was Yuan Zhou's way of doing things .
After that, Yuan Zhou came back to the door . When he prepared to sit down, another person came to him . The opening remark was as same as that of Liu Xinming .
"Since you are Mr . Yuan, I'm not going to say anything more . For the neighboring dry cleaning shop, how much do you want to sell it for?" It was a tall and slim middle-aged man with a look of shrewdness .
"I never intended to sell it . " Yuan Zhou shook the head .
"You took over Boss Tong's dry cleaning shop one month ago . But during the period, you didn't even go inside once, let alone renovating it . So I guess you are just waiting for the right price to sell . Don't worry . We can afford that . " The tall and slim middle-aged man pushed his glasses upward and brought out these words quickly .
"I don't need to tell anybody my decisions . " After saying that, Yuan Zhou directly turned around and returned to the restaurant .
"It seems this person doesn't intend to sell it . " The tall and slim middle-aged man watched Yuan Zhou walk into the restaurant and didn't persuade him to stay .
That's right . This person just came to sound out Yuan Zhou's intention today . His attitude wasn't too bad, but nor was it good . Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn't have any interest in listening to him anymore . He directly walked away .
Not to mention that Yuan Zhou never intended to sell Boss Tong's store . Even if he decided to sell it, he wouldn't sell it to him .
Yuan Zhou didn't know what to do with Boss Tong's store, but he never intended to sell it . After all, it was Boss Tong's kindness that gave him this store .
Due to the two continuous disturbances, Yuan Zhou lost interest in sculpting . He directly went to the second floor of the pub and prepared to read some books attentively .
After all, he hadn't finished reading the book on the cooked wheaten food .
Although Yuan Zhou closed the door, the arrival of the two people seemed to unlock something . In the following days, more people came to enquire Yuan Zhou about the sale of Boss Tong's dry cleaning shop .
That made Yuan Zhou annoyed beyond endurance . He had to put up a notice on the neighboring store that indicated he had no intention to sell the store .
While Yuan Zhou was a little vexed at the store bestowed to him on this side, the business of Yuan Zhou's restaurant had a quite sharp rise .
"Boss Yuan, why do you always wear the mask? I can't even see your face . Can you take it off?" A female newcomer pointed at Yuan Zhou's mask and said straightforwardly .
Yuan Zhou didn't answer her, but just cooked the dishes earnestly .
The girl meant no harm to Yuan Zhou, but some customers in the restaurant were slightly discontented .
"Why are you curious about the chef's face since you are here to eat?" Man Man said with dissatisfaction .
"Because Boss Yuan wears the breathing mask whenever I watch TV . " The girl said naturally .
"That doesn't make it okay . Boss Yuan wears the breathing mask for the sake of our healthy diet . As long as it's the business hour, he wears the breathing mask . " When Man Man heard the girl came after she watched TV, she explained patiently to her .
"Okay, I got it . Sorry . " The girl stuck out her tongue and no longer said anything . She just waited there silently for her dishes .
"Ow . The price is really as expensive as what I saw on TV . Awful . " It was naturally another customer who came after he watched TV .
"Yeah . Do we need to taste it or not?" A friend of this person asked him at the side .
"Of course . I changed 3 different types of transportation in order to come here . I must have a look if the dishes are really that delicious . " The person said positively .
"Alright . We can order one serving . If the dishes aren't delicious, we can at least save some money . " His friend said .
After watching the fourth episode of the program, Folk Talent, those who had complained about the high price were swayed . After all, many bosses said dishes in Yuan Zhou's restaurant well deserved the price .
Sometimes, the netizens were so pure and earnest . When they found others all said so, they contrarily felt they ought to come to try if it was true . They just wanted to prove it with their personal experience .
Therefore, the business of Yuan Zhou's restaurant had been booming whenever business time commenced recently . Of course, the business of other restaurants that had been interviewed also became better .
After all, the people believed sincerely about the words spoken in the program when they saw these restaurants really existed .
