Chapter 178: Duck Oil Sesame Seed Cake
A different alarm of the clock woke Yuan Zhou up from his sound sleep.
“This new alarm is really strange.” After muttering some words, Yuan Zhou turned off the alarm and began to wash himself.
Since Wu Hai made fun of the alarm on Yuan Zhou’s phone last time, Yuan Zhou immediately changed a new one. Although there wasn’t much difference between the two, the former one being “Ling Ling Ling” and the current one “Ding Ling Ling”, he himself believed the difference was great.
When he finished cleaning himself, it was exactly 7:30 in the morning.
Then Yuan Zhou took out his phone and began to make calls.
“May I ask if that is Painter Fang?” Once the phone got through, Yuan Zhou immediately asked.
“Um, what’s the matter?” A soft and melodious female voice passed from the other end of the phone.
Yuan Zhou was stunned for a second while holding the phone before saying, “I’d like to request for you to paint the wall.”
“No problem. When do you want me to start?” The girl answered earnestly when she heard it was about work.
“If possible, we can start today. Could you come here to negotiate the price?” Having considered awhile, Yuan Zhou sent her the invitation.
This Painter Fang was found by Yuan Zhou on a forum. She was said to have wonderful painting skills and did her work earnestly and responsibly. Though she charged a little higher, the materials that she used were nevertheless very good.
Yet, Yuan Zhou hadn’t expected it was a girl, a girl with a soft and melodious voice.
“No problem. So can you tell me your address?” With a shoulder holding the phone against the neck, Painter Fang used her spare hand to get dressed and rise from the bed.
“No.14 of Taoxi Road. Let’s meet at 9:30,” Yuan Zhou told her about the time.
“Ok, see you then,” after saying goodbye, Painter Fang cleanly pulled up her hair and tied it into a ponytail.
Her whole person appeared rather spirited and her clear face was full of vigor.
Now that the ninth one was settled. He continued with the tenth one.
He went on making calls.
Luckily he didn’t have too many contacts in his phone and hence soon got the number that he wanted.
“Hello, this is the Floriculture and Gardening store” a familiar male voice passed from the other end of the phone.
“This is No.14 of Taoxi Road. Please send a pot of lotus flower that is about to blossom here,” Yuan Zhou told him about his request directly.
“Ok, what’s your requirement for the size?” The man asked him about the details politely.
Yuan Zhou explained one by one while the man took notes meticulously. In just a little while, he finished the last one.
“7 minutes, not bad,” Yuan Zhou nodded contentedly.
With nothing else to do, Yuan Zhou felt quite relaxed; therefore he got into an extraordinarily good mood. He thought that he should change to a new taste by cooking something else for the breakfast.
When Yuan Zhou upgraded this time, the system had released a matching snack to him. This was given automatically by the system rather than through the way of drawing lottery.
Yet, he couldn’t have too much hope in the system.
“System, aren’t there Eight Unique Qinhuai snacks in all?” Yuan Zhou looked at the lone four unique snacks and asked with puzzlement.
The system displayed, “This is rewarded at random.”
“Good. Even if they are not complete, it should theoretically the first four or the last four, what’s the matter with the current four that are not in order”? Yuan Zhou turned over the content inside and felt rather speechless.
The system displayed, “At random.”
