Chapter 132 Ideal life
"Zhou Dong, if it really doesn't work, just give up the Bazhen noodles. This big hole that Li Yu dug can't be cracked by many seniors in diligence. Even if you admit defeat, there is no shame in your ability to admit defeat."
After eating today's special pasta "pea yellow", Yi Zhiyu sighed softly. It has been a long time since she had such a pure Beijing-style dim sum; from the lucky customer yesterday, it has only been only a short day to today. Zhou Dong has been able to do this. In his opinion, Zhou Dong no longer needs to prove himself in other ways.
"Yes, Master Zhou, these days you have gradually increased from two or three new products every day to six or seven products every day, and each one can achieve the original flavor. It is simply incredible!
You are the best in our eyes. As for the Eight Treasures, I'm afraid there is no answer at all, right? You don't have to worry about this, just provide us with new products and breakfast every day..."
Long Potian turned into a warm man today, and he had already erased the picky thorns from his dictionary. How to praise Zhou Dong and help this handsome chef solve problems in different ways is the top priority of Long Master's current task.
"Zhou Dong, although the sisters support any decision you make, they don't want you to be cheated by an ancient man. Give up the Eight-Treasures Faces, you are still our male god!"
Even the young lady welcomed her temporarily put down her work and raised her hands to agree with everyone's opinions.
Although Zhou Dong has not spoken much these days, the guests in the breakfast department know that Master Zhou has really encountered a problem this time. Everyone is a little angry. If Li Yu is still alive, he might be filled with old fists by the angry people...
Only Fatty was not speaking. No one knew the boss better than him. Don’t think that the boss doesn’t like to talk much, but he is actually very stubborn. This time he probably had a fight with Bazhen, and it would be useless to persuade anyone.
Sure enough, Zhou Dong just smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Yi, thank you for your concern. But since I promised Mr. Zhu, I must do my best; and I believe that Mr. Liweng's eight treasures must be solved, but I have not found it yet.
There is still one day, and I want to try it out.
But today I will no longer select lucky diners. I will focus all my energy on the Bazhen side, I hope everyone can understand."
"This guy is really stubborn, but I like this kind of unyielding spirit..."
Lu Luxin, who was sitting in the old position, didn't say anything, but just looked at Zhou Dong silently. Seeing him answering this, she was secretly relieved.
She has different opinions from everyone. As a chef, if he admits defeat like this, it will definitely be very unfavorable to future development, and he may even stop moving forward and make it difficult to make progress!
Although Yi Zhiyu is also a senior who is diligent in action, he has already achieved success and fame. How could he understand the ideas of these young diligent in action?
"Fatty, please ask Teacher Shen for a leave for me. I won't go to Lu Chu today. There is still the last day, so I want to be alone."
When the breakfast department finished its business, Zhou Dong made a decision.
My dad once said that when you can't find the answer no matter what, don't think about it for the time being. Perhaps inspiration will appear in front of you panting like a little girl who missed the date.
These days he practiced daily in the kitchen of the Creation. The eight treasure noodles were already well-versed in his heart, and what he lacked was the inspiration for the last treasure "fresh juice".
Moreover, the reason why Zhou Dong was so persistent was because he seemed to have seen something during tens of thousands of exercises. There was only a layer of window paper blocking it in front of him. All he needed to do was to break the layer of window paper in the end.
If you rush over, the sky will be wide open; otherwise, his confidence will be greatly hit.
If a chef starts to doubt himself due to his confidence, even with the help of a magical system, his future achievements will be affected.
His goal is to become the only chef god in the world. How can the god in the chef not have strong confidence?
I called my dad and said that I would not go home today and would go out for a walk and be quiet.
Dad Zhou didn't ask much. He had been paying attention to his son silently, of course he knew his son's achievements and the difficulties he was facing now. He didn't say a word on the phone, but just hung up his fist and raised his fist: "Xiaodong, you can do it! My son can't say it can't be done at any time!"
Dad is a hero. Dad Zhou's life is calm and does not bow his back for five dou of rice, because he can earn six or seven dou at will, especially in front of his wife, he has never said the word "no". Now it seems that his son is indeed his seed!
Zhou Dong rode his bicycle to the station and got on the bike to Fengqi Mountain. For some reason, since he went to Fengqi Mountain, he always missed this place and always felt that it had an indissoluble bond with him.
The Eight Treasures have now become a puzzle hanging in his mind. Even with the help of the system, it cannot be solved. In addition to being bored, he naturally thought of Fengqi Mountain.
Anyway, just walk around and relax and calm your busy heart. Then go and see Village Chief Li and Grandpa Zhu and the others. I don’t know how Grandpa Zhu’s health is now?
I still remember that the doctor said that Grandpa Zhu had already returned to his mind, but he wanted to eat a bowl of green lotus root jade porridge when he was dying. After eating the porridge he made himself, the old man was in good spirits, and there was no bad news these days. Zhou Dong still hoped that Grandpa Zhu could escape this disaster.
After all, it is a hundred-year-old man. Even God should favor such an old man, right?
***
After the development of Fengqi Mountain was shelved, Fengqi Village became a piece of beautiful jade hidden in the deep mountains, which was quite a bit like Tao Yuanming's poem about Peach Blossom Land.
Since Zhou Dong has been ill, he has particularly liked quietness, no friends or entertainment, so reading books has become his biggest pastime. He has read the Peach Blossom Spring countless times and is fascinated by his heart. Perhaps this is why he always misses this beautiful village once he has been here.
The bus only reaches the periphery of Fengqi Mountain, which solves the traffic problems of several villages outside Fengqi Mountain. Therefore, after getting off the bus, Zhou Dong must walk there. If you are lucky enough to encounter a passing bus, you can save some effort, otherwise you will probably have to walk until night to reach Fengqi Village.
Fortunately, my parents were relieved to know that he was coming to Fengqi Village. They were all big men and the place they had been to, and there were acquaintances among the villagers. What else would they not worry about?
The mountain road is long, but the hearts of people are short.
This is a common problem for urban people. Many urban people say that they are tired of urban life and always go to the countryside to cleanse their souls. But if they really want to throw them deep in the mountains, they may blame the lack of rides here.
Zhou Dong was not in a hurry. He just relaxed and walked slowly. He looked at the scenery along the way, watched the wind and clouds, and smiled at the various situations in the countryside. He seemed to be walking alone. Who knew that this was not a spiritual noble?
Unfortunately, time is in a hurry. If you can't find the answer today, you will have to borrow the car from Village Chief Li's house to return to Chudu tomorrow morning. At that time, you can only tell Mr. Zhu that he had failed.
Mr. Zhu doesn’t seem to be a mean person, so he will definitely not mock himself coldly because of this, but will only disappoint others.
Just as he was thinking about this, Liu Changqing called and said, "Xiao Zhou, I heard from the fat man that you want to be quiet. I didn't even go to Lu Chu today. Are you going home?"
"I haven't gone home. Isn't I here in Fengqi Mountain last time when I was looking for white lotus roots? I really like this place. I just want to relax in Fengqi Mountain and visit Grandpa Zhu and Village Chief Li by the way.
Yes, it is the centenarian Grandpa Ruizhu that I mentioned last time... But Teacher Liu, you can rest assured that if I can't find inspiration today, I will go back to Chudu tomorrow morning, just to disappoint Mr. Zhu."
Liu Changqing smiled and said, "Xiao Zhou, don't worry, I just want to tell you about this."
Not long after you left, Mr. Zhu called our breakfast department and said that he had urgent matters recently and was afraid that he would not come in a few days in the evening.
I also said that I was very embarrassed to know that you have been busy with Bazhen’s face recently. I also said that because of your desire to be greedy for the moment, I caused such a big trouble to you. I want me to apologize to you in particular."
Zhou Dong was slightly stunned: "Mr. Zhu actually said that?"
"That's not true. Can Teacher Liu still lie to you? Anyway, Xiao Zhou, please live in Fengqi Village and just think it's a vacation.
Teacher Liu saw this time. You have to ensure that you have several regular products every day, and you have to take into account new products. You have to think about the damn "Eight Treasures" for some time. It's really hard.
This time you go to Fengqi Village, just give yourself a few days off. Don’t worry about the breakfast department. I believe the diners can understand it. You will definitely not cause any more things like the ‘sweet and salty dispute’.”
"Okay, Teacher Liu, I'll give myself a few days off."
When Zhou Dong heard that Mr. Zhu would not come in a few days, he felt relieved. He was like a tight bow during this period, and he was really too tired. Even if the kitchen of the Creation can help him enter deep sleep, it was far from enough.
"I should really take a break. My dad said that life is not only about striving and upward, but also about romance. This is the ideal life. Otherwise, what is the difference between humans and machines?"
After letting go of his biggest thoughts for a while, if Zhou Dong was still consciously calm and looking for the answer, although Ming relaxed, he was still carrying a heavy burden in his heart; at this moment, he was really relaxed, and he walked with the wind. When he saw the wild flowers in the mountains, he felt more beautiful than peonies. When he saw the village girl grazing sheep, he was like seeing a peerless beauty.
If your heart is right, you can see everything right; if your heart is confused, you can see everything very bad.
In life, life is not about fame, fortune, or sports car villa, but about a relaxed heart.
But walking too much is also tiring?
What Zhou Dong got was the chef god system, not the all-round sports star system. After walking for more than an hour on the mountain road, he felt his calves a little cramped. But now it is the busy farming season in early summer, and there are fewer villagers entering and leaving the mountains. Not to mention the Sanbengzi Tractor, he can't even see a donkey cart, so he feels a little worried.
If you walk all the way to Fengqi Village, you will be exhausted?
At this moment, I suddenly heard a roar of engines behind me, and a voice full of surprise sounded: "Xiaochu Zhou? Why are you here?"
