Chapter 350: Name of the Thousand Layer Mantou
At the other side, the system continued to show off its great knowledge without stopping.
The system displayed, “One thousand years ago, the yield of one wheat was 10 to 12 grains while now, it is 20 or so. It has more than doubled.”
“Besides that, the earliest remains of wheat were found in Peacock River basin, namely the Rou-Ran district. After combining the ancient wheat and the current wheat, the system believes that 16 grains on each wheat are in the best form. Therefore the yield of every wheat is 16 grains with each grain plump and full. The sunlight was natural while the rain was sufficient.
“The system uses the most careful method of picking the wheat heads by hand and then grinds the flour using the ancient processing way.”
“All the flour provided by the system is sieved for 6 times. Therefore, the flour is white and fine; the best choice for making Mantou.”
“Besides that, it contains starch, protein, fat, mineral substances, Ca, Fe, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, Vitamin A, and various abundant mineral substances.”
“All in all, you just want to tell me yours is the best. To summarize again, the flour that you provide is the best.” Yuan Zhou covered his forehead with his hand helplessly.
The system responded with silence and didn’t pay attention to Yuan Zhou’s complaint.
“System, I feel all that you provide me is the best. And if you don’t charge me when I eat, I feel that it will be even better.” Occasionally, Yuan Zhou joked around with the system.
Although the system gave no response.
After the daily joke, Yuan Zhou washed his hands earnestly and prepared to make the Mantou.
Speaking of which, even Yuan Zhou’s hand-washing water was superior. The temperature was just perfect, neither too cold nor warm, making it feel like it didn’t even exist.
Nevertheless, its effect for cleaning hands was pretty good.
Yuan Zhou who suffered from obsessive-compulsive-disorder and the system that had an abnormal fear of dirt or contamination were a perfect combination.
On the other side, Yuan Zhou took up the bamboo splits beside him and brought out the flour before getting to work.
Dawn was getting later and later. At about 7:50 a.m., the sky became clear and light.
“Yo… Wu Hai, you are so early.” Su Mu brought his sister here and waved his hand to Wu Hai ahead of him.
However, Wu Hai didn’t answer him at all. Instead, he walked quickly to the door of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant and swiped his ID card in front of the queuing machine. After a sound of “Di”, there appeared two options on the machine. Wu Hai naturally chose the option “Eat On Time”.
Immediately, the machine spat out a ticket, on which a big number 1 was written. Seeing that, Wu Hai smiled contentedly.
“Tsk-tsk. You even don’t let go of one single second.” Su Mu also went up swiftly to swipe the ID cards with Su Yuesheng.
“Of course. I live so close,” Wu Hai stroked his small mustache and said proudly.
“It’s all because of you. Otherwise, we don’t even need to line up.” Su Mu wouldn’t admit failure so easily.
“Never mind. Boss Yuan will also need it later. But I was absolutely wise when it came to buying this house.” Wu Hai turned his head and took a look at the art studio on the second floor of the building across the street.
“You are really awesome! It seems that I also need to invest in a house.” Su Mu was considering the feasibility of the matter.
“It’s our turn now.” Seeing the two guys chatting in front of the queuing machine, others that waited behind them couldn’t help saying that.
“I’m sorry.” Su Mu brought his sister a few steps back and made way for others.
Then, the crowd rushed to swipe their ID cards like a swarm of bees.
The time set by Yuan Zhou was quite reasonable. The customers could get the first twenty numbers about five minutes before the meal started. Of course, as convention suggested, whoever came earlier got the smaller number. After the meal commenced officially, others behind could only get the bigger numbers.
That way, it saved a lot of time that would have been delayed in getting the numbers one by one. Yet, it also didn’t go so far as not to let others behind get the number.
During the past two days after the queuing machine was used, things went very smoothly without any problems.
