Chapter 1260: The new dish that everyone is looking forward to
While uncle Guang and Xia Yu drove to the restaurant to eat the roasted fat sausage, the people that Carpenter Lian had called arrived at 10:30 in less than an hour.
It was Ma Xiao, the owner of the furniture factory who often followed Carpenter Lian around.
“Senior brother.” Ma Xiao led a few porters and called out.
Ma Xiao had addressed him as senior brother from the bottom of his heart, and the reason was simple.
In the beginning, Ma Xiao was naturally unwilling to call someone who became his apprentice later than him and was also younger than him his senior brother. However, after he saw that he was learning from Carpenter Lian, he changed his mind.
It couldn’t be helped. He couldn’t catch up with Yuan Zhou’s learning speed and quick thinking. Although Yuan Zhou’s basic skills and the patterns he knew weren’t as good as his, he could basically do any Carpenter’s work better than his.
Furthermore, after knowing Yuan Zhou’s working and rest time, Ma Xiao couldn’t help but admire him.
Therefore, he was quite willing to call him senior brother. As for Yuan Zhou, he was quite happy in his heart even though he appeared to be indifferent.
“I’ll have to trouble you, Junior Brother. ” Yuan Zhou thanked him with a solemn expression.
“No need, master’s orders are nothing. Besides, being able to be your door is something everyone wants.” Ma Xiao said with a smile.
/
“Are you staying for lunch?” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and didn’t say much, but asked directly.
“I can’t do it today. I have to go back to master’s place after I’m done.” Ma Xiao’s face was filled with pity, but he still said firmly.
“Okay, let’s eat together next time.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
“It’s a deal. I’ll eat more next time. ” Ma Xiao couldn’t help swallowing his saliva when he thought of Yuan Zhou’s craftsmans.h.i.+p and then said immediately.
“Of course.” Yuan Zhou said.
Seeing Yuan Zhou agree, Ma Xiao also nodded his head happily. Then, he called the people behind him to carry the wooden door up,””This is the wooden door you wanted. What do you think?”
“It’s not bad,” Yuan Zhou walked around the wooden door and then nodded his head affirmatively.
“As long as you’re satisfied. Where should I install this door?” Ma Xiao asked.
“For the neighboring room. This door is for the neighboring room.” Yuan Zhou’s voice was neither loud nor soft, thus all the onlookers at the side heard him.
That’s right. When Ma Xiao brought them to the door of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant just now, the pedestrians on the road and the people in the neighboring restaurant all looked over curiously.
It couldn’t be helped. Yuan Zhou was now the weather vane of Taoxi road. Anything that happened to him would attract people’s attention.
After Yuan Zhou said that, he pointed at boss Tong’s dry cleaning shop next door and signaled her to move the door there.
“Alright, then I’ll start changing the door.” Ma Xiao called the workers to change the door, and he himself did the same.
Seeing the several people tear down the door easily, the boss opposite Yuan Zhou who often changed his shop sign couldn’t help saying,””Boss Yuan, what are you doing?”
“Change the door.” Yuan Zhou said concisely and comprehensively.
As soon as Yuan Zhou answered, the onlookers around him immediately started to ask questions.
“Boss Yuan, are you going to expand your business?” The boss of the new noodle restaurant also asked anxiously.
“It’s good to expand it. This way, we’ll have more opportunities to eat it in the future. ”
“I don’t think so. You see, when the door was opened, it was a screen facing us. That used to be a dry cleaner. Where did a screen come from?”
“Exactly. The decorations inside are also different from those in boss Yuan’s restaurant. It’s quite simple and elegant.”
“Is there a new dish?”
Everyone guessed for a long time. Finally, Wu Hai, who came here after hearing the voice, guessed the point.
Yuan Zhou raised his head and took a look at Wu Hai,””Yes, our restaurant has a new dish. It will be listed and explained tomorrow,”
“It’s a new dish indeed. ” Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and appeared quite proud.
“The new dish will be served here, and it can be considered an expansion of the business. The renovation of this place is now in the final stage. It will be officially completed after the door is changed.” Yuan Zhou reached out his hand and gestured to the dry cleaning shop that had taken off its signboard.
Yuan Zhou answered everyone’s question in one breath and achieved his original purpose. Then, he turned around and went to the door.
“A new dish? I’ll probably be able to eat it tonight. ” Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and went upstairs happily.
He still remembered that Yuan Zhou had said that he would treat him to dinner tonight. Since he could eat it tonight, he naturally didn’t need to stay here.
The viewers who were left behind looked around the shop carefully and discussed in low voices.
“A new dish is out again. I wonder what it is this time. I want to eat it.”
“Yes, yes, yes. I hope the price can be lower. That way, I can eat it every day.”
“I hope it’s a snack. I think the snacks cooked by boss Yuan are really delicious.”
What was concern? those who were waiting to eat were basically all foodies who were just waiting for boss Yuan to serve the new dishes.
On the other side were the surrounding shops. What they saw in the new dish was not food, but business opportunities.
After all, every time Yuan Zhou served a new dish, Taoxi road would always welcome a particularly large wave of people. Those people swarmed to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant with the hope that they might be able to eat it.
There would be a lot of people on Taoxi road during those days, and their business would be very good, almost like a holiday.
Therefore, as soon as he heard Yuan Zhou say it was a new dish, he immediately turned around and left to prepare. Moreover, he didn’t forget to post on the internet spontaneously so that more people would know about the new dish in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.
This was not the first time they had done this, so they were very familiar with it.
Looking at these people leaving while mumbling, Yuan Zhou felt relieved and then fixed the door more carefully.
Since the door was ready, the work of installing the door was not too c.u.mbersome. It was finished in a short while, and Ma Xiao left with his men.
After was.h.i.+ng up, Yuan Zhou also started to prepare lunch.
Lunch went smoothly. By evening, more and more people knew about the new dish.
Xia Yu, who was planning to try it out at night, was brought home for dinner by uncle Guang and could not come.
Nevertheless, Wu Hai, who clearly knew that Yuan Zhou would treat him to a meal after the dinner, entered the restaurant to have his meal as usual.
His reason was quite legitimate. There were still two hours before Yuan Zhou’s dinner. He would eat some first as an appetizer.
Although Wu Hai was said to be an appetizer, the amount he ordered was the same as usual, without missing a single dish.
Yuan Zhou was used to it.
After the dinner time ended, Yuan Zhou sent off the last customer and said to Wu Hai and Yin ya at the side,””I need to wash up before I can cook. Give me ten minutes.”
“No problem, go on.” Wu Hai sat on the empty chair and waved his hand straightforwardly.
“Alright,” he said. Yin ya nodded her head in a reserved manner.
When Yuan Zhou saw the two of them nod, he didn’t delay and directly turned around and went upstairs.
After Yuan Zhou washed up and went downstairs, he changed into a moon-white Han Chinese clothing with narrow sleeves. The hems of the clothing were embroidered with lotus flowers. When he walked, he gave off the feeling of a modest young master.
“This time, we’re eating next door. Let’s go in directly from next door.” Yuan Zhou opened the part.i.tion board and walked out, saying to the two people.
“Next door? It seems to be a large object. Could it be a roasted whole cow?” Wu Hai immediately guessed.
“The renovation for the next room is done so quickly?” Yin ya, on the other hand, had already known that it was a vegetable dish, so she asked instead.
“Um, it’s been renovated intermittently,” Yuan Zhou first answered Yin ya’s question gently and then turned his head to Wu Hai and said meaningfully,””It’s not a whole cow. You’ll know when the time comes. ”
“Fine, you’re compa.s.s. If you don’t want to say it, then so be it.” Wu Hai wasn’t particularly hungry at the moment, thus he was easy to talk to. Without further ado, he nodded his head and agreed with Yuan Zhou’s words of keeping him guessing.
