Chapter 499 (2/2)
“As expected.” Once he received the board, Chu Xiao pinched it. Only after that did he sighed with emotion.
“What’s wrong?” Zhou Shijie still didn’t understand why he would do so.
Wasn’t it just a foam board? Where was the novelty?
“Chairman Zhou, take a look at it by yourself.” Chu Xiao handed the board to Zhou Shijie.
“Okay. Let me have a look.” Zhou Shijie was also very curious.
Once the board was in his hand, Zhou Shijie knew it wasn’t foam. Instead, it was a kind of unknown soft board similar to the flexible flue.
“It turns out to be so. No wonder you say the main point isn’t the dumplings.” After that, Zhou Shijie also let out a sigh and said that.
On the white board were the thickly dotted fish bones of all sizes. But that wasn’t the main point. The main point was that these fish bones were arranged into the shape of the fish without the fish head and fish fin.
Besides that, each of the fish bones was inserted into the board with the same strength. Even his abilities in picking out fish bones were peerless.
“On this point, even I can’t achieve his level. After all, I’m not good with knife skills.” Chu Xiao said cleanly.
As a professional chef who specialized in sculpting and plate presentation, even Chu Xiao himself said that his knife skills were not as good. Li Minghui and Liu Tong were thoroughly astounded by that.
“It’s extremely difficult.” Zhou Shijie nodded his head and had to admit that.
“Teacher, I want to have a look.” Li Minghui uttered and said.
“Me, too.” Liu Tone echoed right after him.
“It’s good for you to have a look.” After saying that, Zhou Shijie handed the board to them.
“Hiss… It can be prepared in this way?” Seated beside Zhou Shijie, Liu Tong naturally saw it first. His surprise was straightforwardly shown on his face.
Li Minghui, who continued to watch it afterwards, kept silent for quite a while and then said, “That way, the fish bones are indeed all picked out. However, won’t the fish meat be thoroughly mashed?”
Li Minghui swore that he didn’t want to pick holes in Yuan Zhou at all, but instead, just wanted to know if it was like imagined.
“Boss Yuan, why not explain that by yourself?” Even Zhou Shijie was a little hesitant.
Only Chu Xiao felt it wasn’t possible for the fish meat to be smashed. First of all, he trusted Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship; secondly, he had witnessed the processed fish where the fish bones had been picked out. It was an intact piece without even a hole and the knife scratches were simply invisible.
“You just need to know where each fish bone is and then pick them out. It’s just as easy as one plus one being two. Everything has a pattern.” Yuan Zhou said that calmly and indifferently as if it were quite easy to pick the fish bones out and arrange them into a shape of the fish.
“I want to hit somebody, teacher.” Liu Tong took a deep breath and then looked at Zhou Shijie to consult him.
“Hahaha. This old guy finally sees a true genius. One plus one is two? This little brat of Yuan Zhou is definitely ascending to the heavens.” Zhou Shijie felt it both angry and interested and was simply speechless.
“Teacher, shall we leave first?” The steady disciple Li Minghui felt he couldn’t bear Yuan Zhou anymore. If this damn difficulty level was as described by Yuan Zhou, then what can the dished cooked by them during normal times be called? Was it at the level of playing with clay?
As the prime culprit, Yuan Zhou just frowned and said while looking at them, “The fish bones of these fish all have a sequence. Just remove them based on the regular pattern.”
In regard to Yuan Zhou’s explanations, Li Minghui and Liu Tong answered with one accord, “Ho Ho”.
At the same time, there appeared the same words in their heart, “I want to swear now.”
