923 The Taotie Restaurants Chef Apprentice (2/2)
The people around them were curious. They couldn't guess Bu Fang's intention.
As for Wenren Shang, he felt uncomfortable under Bu Fang's gaze. He couldn't drink his wine with ease anymore.
”I need an apprentice chef for this restaurant. Would you like to be my apprentice chef?” Bu Fang dove straight into the topic, not wanting to beat around the bush.
As soon as he said that, the people around went into an uproar.
What?! Owner Bu wanted to recruit Wenren Shang as his apprentice chef?
How could it be?!
Wenren Shang was a first-grade chef, so of course, he had his pride as a chef. How could he become someone's apprentice chef?
How could Bu Fang make such a request…
Even if they were to close their eyes, they would know that Wenren Shang would reject it.
The old man stroked the tuft of white hair on his head, laughing with interest.
Indeed, Owner Bu had begun to arrange things?
As time flew, the date to the opening time of the Immortal Cooking Realm was getting nearer and nearer. Owner Bu was also… anxious.
However, he chose Wenren Shang to be his apprentice chef. This choice wasn't really good.
Nether King Er Ha naturally didn't bat an eye on this. He remained sitting on the side, sucking his Spicy Strip.
But deep down, he was worried, mainly because his stock of Spicy Strips was running out. He thought he should find some excuse to ask Bu Fang for Spicy Strips now, or else, he would go mad when his food was gone.
Wenren Shang's throat moved. He raised his hand, using his sleeve to wipe his wet mouth before answering, ”Owner Bu, are you kidding… Although I, Wenren Shang, am carefree and easygoing, I have my pride. I admit that you're stronger than me, but it's impossible for me to become your apprentice chef.”
As Wenren Shang said that, he gulped more wine.
To buy Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine, Wenren Shang had even pawned his restaurant, and today, he was considered alone and poor.
Nonetheless, in such circumstances, he was still a proud man. If Bu Fang wanted to take him as his apprentice chef, what could Bu Fang teach him then?
Knife skills, carving skills, cooking skills, and so on… Being a first-grade chef, he had mastered them all. What else Bu Fang could teach him?
However, Bu Fang's serious expression made him frown, and what Bu Fang said next turned his world upside down.
”Wine... Is it delicious?”
Wine... Wine... Wine!
Bu Fang's wine!
Wenren Shang's eyes shrank. Now, they were as big as green beans.
”Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine, Frost Blaze Path-Understanding Brew… and even the Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine. Don't you think they are so delicious?” said Bu Fang with a straight face.
Gulp.
Wenren Shang's body went stiff. Listening to Bu Fang, he shivered as beads of sweat rolled down his face.
No matter if it was the Frost Blaze Path-Understanding Brew or the Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine, he had already sunk deep into them!
Especially the Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine… As soon as its seal opened, the wine aroma had permeated the entire Valley of Gluttony…
What kind of divine wine was that?!
After Wenren Shang had drunk the Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine, it pierced deep into his soul. He would never ever forget that delicious taste!
Looking at Bu Fang's calm eyes, Wenren Shang knew he was wrong.
”Do you want to learn that? If you're my apprentice chef, I will teach you…” Bu Fang's voice was so calm as he said this naturally.
Wenren Shang shivered again and again.
Then, in front of people's dumbstruck gazes, he slowly finished the wine in his bottle. Wiping his mouth, he stood up, solemnly taking one step back.
He suddenly bowed to Bu Fang.
If he could study brewing and winemaking techniques, he would be willing to be Bu Fang's apprentice chef.
”I'm willing to become Owner Bu's apprentice chef. I would love to learn how to make wine with Owner Bu,” Wenren Shang spoke earnestly.
Bu Fang was satisfied. Looking at Wenren Shang, he grinned.
The surrounding people gawked and dropped their jaws.
”Am I… Am I dreaming? Are my eyes just playing tricks on me? Chef Wenren Shang agreed to become Owner Bu's apprentice chef?”
”My god… After that big fight with those demon kings, it's Wenren Shang taking Owner Bu as his teacher!”
”Wow! How exciting! Unbelievable!”
The other people around couldn't help but show their surprise and admiration. Owner Bu's apprentice chef was a first-grade chef! This had completely changed their view of the world.
Looking at Wenren Shang bowing to him, Bu Fang's eyes turned earnest as he could see the sincere desire to learn in the other.
Winemaking techniques?
Bu Fang contemplated. His winemaking techniques weren't something the other could learn easily…
Bu Fang swept his gaze across the crowd, then said to Wenren Shang, ”Now that you're my apprentice chef, follow me.”
After that, he turned around, leading Wenren Shang to the kitchen.
”Well, our restaurant is still open. Guys, please order…” Bu Fang's faint voice came out of the kitchen.
Following Bu Fang, Wenren Shang became really excited.
Owner Bu's kitchen… Until now, nobody had ever stepped inside there!
Walking through the door, the interior of the kitchen appeared in Wenren Shang's vision…
His eyes shrank immediately…
