2377 Not showing off

"Good wood." Master ju took the wooden box and was conquered by its warm touch.

Although he was a master of porcelain, he knew a lot about wood. After all, master ju was not only from a rich family, but he was also from a famous family.

He was most proud of the two fragrant Rosewood chairs in his house. They were treasures passed down in the family. He would personally wipe them every few days. Usually, he would not even be willing to sit on them.

"This must be mahogany, right? it must be at least a hundred years old. Master Yuan, you're really extraordinary." Even master ju couldn't help but be moved.

Of course, if he knew that Yuan Zhou had casually piled up the fragrant Rosewood core and core material, he would not only be moved but also want to beat him up.

When master GE heard this, his hand holding the wooden box paused slightly and he said,""This is too precious, I'm not worthy of it."

"You two masters are too polite. I, master Lian, am a top-notch Carpenter. It is much easier for me to get these pieces of wood than ordinary people. It is not very expensive. It is just a small token of my appreciation." Yuan Zhou said.

He rejoiced in his heart that he didn't use scented Rosewood to make it. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't be able to give it out.

"Master Yuan, did you make this yourself?" Master GE was shocked and didn't have time to think about what a blockhead was.

He couldn't tell whether the wood was good or bad, but it was comfortable to touch. However, this didn't prevent him from seeing the hundreds of flower patterns carved on it. They were vivid and lifelike. It was definitely a master-level craft.

Master ju was also shocked. He looked at Yuan Zhou's young face and almost couldn't maintain the smile on his face.

According to master Wen, master Yuan's main profession seemed to be a chef. Moreover, he was a rather famous chef. It was already very surprising that his ceramic art was so good. Now, he was even told that his Carpenter was also a master. It was simply unbelievable.

"I made it myself. Please forgive me for my poor skills. I think it's more sincere if I make it myself. I also made the desserts." Yuan Zhou said sincerely.

Master ju and master GE looked at each other for a while and didn't know what to say. Although there was a saying that "the waves behind push the waves in front, and the waves in front die on the beach", this wave was too big.

It wasn't that they had never seen geniuses before. There had been a few geniuses in the pottery industry, but they had never seen a genius who had dabbled in so many fields like Yuan Zhou.

"Pa"

Not knowing what to say, master ju directly opened the wooden box in his hand. He was now very interested in Yuan Zhou's food and wanted to see how good the skills of the chef, who had become his main profession, were.

The wooden box already had a faint wooden smell, but as soon as the box was opened, a unique sour and sweet smell hit his face. As the box was opened, the contents were revealed. The White glutinous rice paper half-wrapped with Amber-like jujube cakes were neatly arranged in the box, which was very appetizing.

"This smell is really familiar. I haven't smelled such an authentic Southern jujube in many years." Master ju said with emotion.

Some of the southern jujube cakes were made according to the ancient method, but master ju felt that it was different from the ones he had eaten before.

Even if it was his favorite thing, he rarely ate it now as the taste was not right. However, the box of Southern jujube cakes brought by Yuan Zhou made him feel that it was very familiar.

Yuan Zhou's cooking was naturally perfect. He chose the fruit from the thousand-year-old Southern jujube tree. The fruit was complete and beautiful. He didn't use his hands to pick it at all. Instead, he picked it gently with a fresh bamboo branch. Moreover, he paid attention to the perfect quality of the fruit so that it wouldn't be damaged. Naturally, the taste would be familiar to master ju.

Of course, Yuan Zhou didn't have any gan cuisine in his possession at the moment. Therefore, it was impossible for him to get the authentic gan ingredients like Southern sour dates. However, Yuan Zhou could get five designated ingredients every month through the master chef's private ingredient warehouse. With that, everything became much more convenient.

Master ju couldn't help but pick up a piece and put it into his mouth. The first bite of the cake was very tough, with a little bit of elasticity and chewy. Then there was a unique sour taste and a light sweetness that made people drool. Coupled with the silky softness of the glutinous rice paper, people couldn't help but spin on the tip of their tongues and couldn't bear to swallow it.

Even after swallowing it, there was still a unique taste of the southern jujube cake left in his mouth, indicating its existence.

"It's delicious. It's sour and sweet in the mouth. It's pure, smooth, and flexible. The texture is unique, and it has a wild and natural taste to it. It makes one feel as if they are in a deep and serene valley. It's very natural." Master ju couldn't help but pick up another piece and taste it.

Master ju couldn't stop eating. He finally realized the difference between his main profession and his secondary profession.

Master GE was also curious about the flower cake. He didn't like sour things, so he didn't want to try it even though master ju couldn't wait to eat it.

Unlike his own appearance, master GE was extremely fond of sweet things, especially the flower cakes from the province, which were his favorite.

Naturally, Yuan Zhou wanted to give a gift to someone's sweetheart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the face to learn the skills of others.

As soon as master GE opened the wooden box, a strong rose fragrance mixed with flour rushed to the tip of the nose. This was the fragrance of the special edible rose in Dian province, and it was the top-grade kind. It was elegant, fragrant, and sweet.

The surface was slightly yellow, which meant that it had been roasted to the right state. It was slightly crisp and fluffy, which looked very tempting. Of course, it was even more tempting to eat. At least, master GE could not withstand it. After eating one piece, he continued to eat the second piece without stopping.

When they were almost done eating, the two masters stopped and finally came back to their senses.

"Master Yuan, you really live up to your reputation. Your culinary skills are really good." Master ju couldn't help but say.

Master GE nodded as usual and added a rare sentence,""This flower cake is the best I've ever eaten. It's really good."

"It's just a little snack. I'm glad that the two masters like it. " Yuan Zhou said.

After the two embarrassed Masters drank a mouthful of tea, they started to talk to Yuan Zhou about some techniques of making black pottery that he wanted to know the most.

Master GE was the main speaker, and master ju occasionally interjected with some knowledge about porcelain. It was obvious that he was taking advantage of master GE.

However, when it came to serious business, the two masters had the bearing of grandmasters. Of course, if they occasionally picked up a piece of dessert to eat, it would be even more impressive.

He talked for a long time and didn't stop until Yuan Zhou was about to leave.

"We'll be talking about theoretical knowledge today. You can come over tomorrow morning to try it out. I brought some soil over. You can try it out." Master GE said.

Only after he said that did Yuan Zhou remember that he had brought something else with him. Therefore, he immediately opened the bag beside his feet and took out a tightly wrapped ball-shaped thing.

This package was much more secure than the one that had wrapped the wooden box. In any case, it was completely impossible to tell what it was from the surface.

"Si la"

Yuan Zhou tore off the surface and peeled it off layer by layer slowly. Soon, the content inside was revealed. Master GE, who had been observing quietly, couldn't help but take two steps forward and observe carefully when he saw what was inside.
