2110 Building an airport
“Si la”
Yuan Zhou was sitting upright in front of the desk. In front of him was the clay that had just been unwrapped. He looked serious as if he was doing something big.
First, he took out the instruction manual given by the salesgirl and read it twice. Then, Yuan Zhou started to open the basic course given by the salesgirl.
“To use clay as the brush holder, we first have to observe how much clay is suitable, how much water is needed, and the size of the brush holder …”
Yuan Zhou listened to every word carefully and then planned to do it step by step according to the tutorial.
Actually, it was better to use a machine’s turntable to make the pen holder with clay, as it would be simpler. However, due to the limited space, Yuan Zhou decided to do it manually.
He was also a person who had made his own dishes, so he was not too unfamiliar with clay.
“With my skills, I can do it in minutes.” Yuan Zhou said.
20 minutes later, Yuan Zhou looked at a pen holder on the table that was a little crooked. Apart from the opening at the top and the seal at the bottom, it didn’t look like a pen holder at all. He decided to redo it.
“This one doesn’t seem to be very successful, and it doesn’t look good.”
Ouyang Xiu’s oil-seller had said a sentence about his superb skills,”there’s nothing else but familiarity with your hands.”
No matter how superb the skills were, it still required the process of practice to make perfect. It was the same principle as Yuan Zhou’s cooking skills and knife skills, which were already so superb that they were unrivaled in the world, but he still had to practice diligently every day.
As he thought too much, Yuan Zhou found he couldn’t handle clay.
After three or four tries, the clay was almost used up, but the quality was still not bad.
“This should be enough.” When Yuan Zhou found there was no difference between the finished product and the video, he finally stopped.
He still needed to color it. For the sake of safety, Yuan Zhou still drew the same thing. Then, he took out the watercolor painting and chose the color first. After drawing on the paper several times, he finally started to work on the pencil case.
After a while, he put the slightly dry pen holder into a paper box and wrapped it up. Finally, he used a ribbon to tie a beautiful bow.
The next day came as promised. After the breakfast time, a series of rhythmic footsteps could be heard. Yuan Zhou knew that the person he was waiting for had arrived.
Sure enough, the one running in front was Lele. Probably because the weather was a little hot, she was only wearing a long one-piece dress in black and white. She had light fur and didn’t look very thick. There were two panda ears on the back of the hat, and with Lele’s puffed cheeks, she looked like a red panda.
Lele’s father followed closely behind. Ever since Yuan Zhou talked to Lele’s father, he didn’t know how to deal with the matter. Anyway, from then on, Lele’s father would accompany her to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant in an aboveboard manner.
“Uncle Yuan, uncle Yuan, Lele is here. Did you miss me?” Lele ran to him and asked happily.
Ever since she got the method to find her mother from Yuan Zhou, although they had never met, those warm words had given Lele a lot of courage and restored her innocence of a child.
“Hello, boss Yuan.” Lele’s father also greeted Yuan Zhou.
Compared to before, Lele’s father’s mental state was much better. Although there was still some gloominess between his eyebrows, it seemed that time was indeed a good cure.
“Hello,” he said. Yuan Zhou nodded to Lele’s father and then squatted down, looking at Lele and saying,””Yes, Lele is so cute, she will definitely miss you.”
“Uncle Yuan, can you guess why Lele is so happy today?” Lele said as she opened her hands and made a big circle to show that she was so happy.
“Eh? It’s Lele’s birthday today. ” Yuan Zhou meditated earnestly with a deadpan expression and then answered.
“Hahaha, that’s right. Lele is so happy for her birthday today.” Lele clapped her little hands and said happily.
She paused for a moment, then stuck out her small chest and said,””Is there a letter from uncle Yuan’s mother? today is Lele’s birthday. It would be best if we could receive a letter.”
When he said that, Le Le looked at Yuan Zhou eagerly, which was probably the same way big Bear looked at Doraemon.
“Yes, Lele, wait.” Yuan Zhou walked back to the restaurant and carried out the dishes he had prepared earlier.
Of the two boxes, one was an envelope. The other box was wrapped very well with a beautiful bow. The other box was directly wrapped in a translucent box. The sky blue color and the White cream inside looked very beautiful. This was the gift that Yuan Zhou intended to give to Lele. It was a small cake that he made in the morning.
“It’s so pretty. ” Lele saw the beautiful little cake at a glance.
“This is uncle’s birthday present for Lele. Happy Birthday, Lele.” Yuan Zhou handed the cake to Lele and then handed her the letter and the wrapped gift,””This is a letter and birthday present from Lele’s mother.”
Lele’s father, who had been watching with a smile, became slightly gloomy and wanted to say something. In the end, he moved his lips a few times but still didn’t say anything. In the end, he looked at Yuan Zhou gratefully and made up his mind to repay him twice in the future.
“That’s great. Lele has so many gifts. Mommy’s gift, uncle’s gift, and daddy’s gift. Lele is so happy.” Lele’s little face bloomed with a smile, and she was especially happy.
The atmosphere in master chef Restaurant was warm and happy. On the other side, in a serious meeting room in the city center, the atmosphere was tense and the smell of gunpowder was strong.
“You’re being unreasonable. How can you build an airport in the city? you’re just making a fool of yourselves.” “Tong gang!” A man in his forties almost roared. The name tag in front of him read “Tong gang” and a string of small words “Shuangliu District representative”.
“Don’t be so angry. Although we were the ones who suggested it, we’re only paying for the cost of a piece of land. The Dubai businessmen said that they can handle the rest by themselves. How can we not be more proactive when it comes to this kind of big event that can improve economic development and construction?” The friendly-looking Liang Yongxing said calmly to Tong gang, not the least bit worried about Tong gang’s anger.
Liang Yongxing was representing Chenghua District, even though he looked calm on the surface and was thinking: “He’s a bastard. Why didn’t he take the initiative to take advantage of such a good thing?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the other people in the room began to discuss. Of course, the people from the Twin stream District were not willing to do so. Originally, the airport was a big source of income for them. Now Chenghua District had another one, it was definitely dividing the income.
Looking at the people who had different opinions, Liang Yongxing calmly added, “There’s nothing we can do about it. Master chef Restaurant is in our District. Head chef Yuan has to make things convenient for him, right?”
He looked so helpless that people wanted to beat him up. They didn’t know what the others were thinking, but from Tong gang’s angry eyes, they could tell that he really wanted to.
Yuan Zhou’s name was quite well-known in Chengdu. He was a legendary figure who drove the economy of an entire Street and the current leader of the cooking circle. If one didn’t know about him, one would definitely be lazy at work.
