Chapter 1388: Yuan Zhou, the unlucky one
The mysterious cutting board rewarded by the system was 45 centimeters long, 32 centimeters wide, and 2.6 centimeters thick.
If this was a household chopping board, it would be suitable for chopping. However, if it was used in a store, this chopping board would only be enough for daily use.
Other than the fact that the cutting board felt like skin, it looked no different from the tasteless cutting board rewarded by the system.
“System, there doesn’t seem to be anything special about your mysterious chopping board.” Yuan Zhou said with puzzlement.
The system displayed,”the host will know after using it.”
“Alright, I’ll just use it.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and didn’t say anything more.
As this chopping board was new, it naturally needed to be washed before it was used.
The first cleaning of the chopping board required the use of salt to gently scrub. This strength should be controlled to not damage the protective layer of the oil on the surface of the chopping board, but also play the role of sterilization and cleaning.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou dipped the fine cotton cloth into the fine grains of well salt and gently smeared it on the cutting board before washing it.
As he was very careful, it took him 20 minutes to wipe it clean.
The cutting board, which had been carefully washed, was now a bright brownish-red color. The color was even more vibrant than before, but it did not emit any smell.
However, it felt more delicate to the touch.
“Since it’s the God of Cooking set, I’ll use the miracle kitchen knife to match it.” Yuan Zhou dried the water on the chopping board and then took out the miracle kitchen knife.
While taking out the kitchen knife, Yuan Zhou also took out the vegetable that was prepared to be used as a test cutting board. It was a bright red tomato.
The tomato was the size of a palm. Yuan Zhou didn’t use any fancy knife skills. He just placed the tomato on the chopping board and then directly cut it.
The miracle kitchen knife was still very smooth. It felt like an extension of his arm when he held it in his hand, as if he was using his fingers.
When Yuan Zhou cut the knife to the end and the knife touched the cutting board, the feeling instantly made Yuan Zhou surprised.
“It’s a strange feeling,” Yuan Zhou frowned slightly.
“But it’s surprisingly useful.” Yuan Zhou didn’t stop. He cut the tomatoes several times in a row and didn’t let out a sigh of relief until all the tomatoes were cut into slices.
He stopped the knife in his hand and took off the mask. He first washed the knife and wiped his hands dry before he started to eat the tomatoes on the chopping board slowly.
That’s right. It was rare for Yuan Zhou to think about the problem while eating.
A tomato wasn’t much even if it was cut into thin slices. Therefore, Yuan Zhou finished all the tomatoes on the chopping board in a short while and then said lightly,””System, I think I know one of the uses of this chopping board.”
“It’s self-repair, just like memory metal.” Yuan Zhou looked at the smooth chopping board and said affirmatively.
The system displayed,”yes, host.”
“But this shouldn’t be the only function, right? otherwise, how could it be called a mysterious chopping board that no one has ever obtained?” Yuan Zhou asked with puzzlement.
The system displayed,”the host can explore the other functions by himself.”
“Yes, it can. Let’s not talk about the function first. Then why has no one ever obtained this chopping board?” Yuan Zhou asked curiously. The system had mentioned that he was the first chef to get a chopping board.
This time, the system didn’t display any words. Instead, it remained silent for a long time.
However, Yuan Zhou didn’t mind. When the system was silent, he started to wash the chopping board and went upstairs to wash up.
After all, he hadn’t washed up after the exchange. Yuan Zhou definitely wouldn’t tell him that he was preparing to draw a never-before-seen dish in his restaurant.
When Yuan Zhou finished washing up and was drying his hair, the system displayed the words again.
The system displayed,[the host is the first chef to reach level six so quickly.]
“The first one to be this fast? Isn’t this a little too much information?” Instantly, Yuan Zhou was so surprised that his hands stopped moving.
The system displayed,”yes.”
“When did your previous host reach level six?” Yuan Zhou pretended to be unconcerned and asked curiously.
The system displayed,”the host’s level is not high enough, please work hard to level up.”
“...It’s been a long time since I’ve heard such familiar words. ” Yuan Zhou was speechless.
As soon as he said that, Yuan Zhou lost the mood to continue asking. He continued to dry his hair and didn’t stop until he dried it.
Then, Yuan Zhou sat in front of his desk and said with a serious expression,””System, I found a mistake.”
The system displayed,”please speak, host.”
“Do you still remember the apprenticeship mission you gave me?” Yuan Zhou asked solemnly.
The system displayed,”the system is searching. The search has been found. Automatic correction has been activated. The correction is successful. The host can search again.”
“System, you’re not being kind.” Yuan Zhou said.
The system displayed,”the host can inquire about the mission reward again.”
“Look, I found your mistake for you. How could you correct it without saying a word? Are you trying to renege on your debt?” Yuan Zhou said.
That’s right. When Yuan Zhou was washing up, he suddenly thought of the unfinished apprenticeship mission and then recalled that the original reward of the apprenticeship mission was the upgrade gift package of the Jin ‘Ling cuisine, which was also the Jiangsu cuisine. This was clearly stated by the system.
However, during the master’s task, su cuisine was not excluded from the cuisines that could be drawn. If he drew su cuisine, wouldn’t he be in trouble?
This was definitely a small error in the system.
As an honest and reliable young man who was also a teacher’s helper, Yuan Zhou naturally had to point out the system’s mistakes in order to prevent the world from being destroyed and to maintain the world peace.
The system displayed,”the host will know after receiving the reward.”
“Alright, I’ll believe you this time.” Yuan Zhou revealed an expression of “I believe in your moral integrity” and then received the reward again.
At that time, the mission reward changed and Yuan Zhou noticed it at a glance.
[Mission reward] level up by one, a mysterious chopping board of the God of Cooking set, an independent two-seater table and chair, and a lottery draw for the cuisines of the eight major cuisines except for Sichuan and Jiangsu cuisines.
“Tables and chairs? It’s not bad. ” Yuan Zhou was quite satisfied with this reward. In this way, he could thank the customers who ate it.
“System, since you’re willing to correct your mistakes, then I’ll forgive you. After all, I’m a magnanimous person.” Yuan Zhou said generously.
The system displayed,[host, please draw the cuisines as soon as possible.]
“I’ll draw it now. ” Yuan Zhou had never gone overboard. When he got what he wanted, he stopped.
As soon as Yuan Zhou agreed to draw the prize, the system directly showed the turntable of the eight major cuisines in Yuan Zhou’s mind.
Although there were eight major cuisines, in order to ensure that he could get it in one go, there were only six cuisines on the round plate, and each cuisines occupied the same size. When the time came, it would be the cuisines that the pointer pointed to.
The six cuisines were Cantonese, Shandong, Anhui, Hunan, Zhejiang, and Fujian cuisines.
“I already have some knowledge of the Dongjiang cuisines among the Cantonese cuisines here, so I don’t need it urgently. However, I don’t have any dishes from the other five cuisines, and I don’t know them well. I must pick one of these cuisines, so that I can enrich my craftsmanship.” Yuan Zhou looked around carefully and then concluded.
Yuan Zhou wiped his hands with the wet tissue again and then shouted “start”.
As soon as he shouted “start,” the wheel in his mind started to spin.
Before he shouted “stop,” Yuan Zhou wiped his hands again and then stopped.
As expected, the pointer of the turntable stopped in the grid of Cantonese dishes, and it was steady without any deviation.
