Yuan Zhou agreed straightforwardly.
Hang Tian also put away the solemness on his face and started to smile.

“I knew that head chef Yuan is a straightforward person.” Hang Tian said as he took out a leather bag that he carried with him.

Hang Tian’s movements when taking off the bag were very gentle.
When he placed it on the stone table, the bag, which did not look light, did not even make a sound.

The leather bag was brown-black in color, and its outer skin looked soft and smooth.
It was obvious that it had been touched often.

The shoulder straps were a little worn out, and it seemed that she was often carried around.

“Here, this is the thing that I use to eat.” Hang Tian gently touched the leather bag but did not open it.

“Please wait a moment, I’ll go get the knife.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head solemnly and then said.

“Alright, go on then.” Hang Tian nodded.

Several minutes later, Yuan Zhou came back with two vegetable knives.
One of them was a miracle vegetable knife produced by the system, which was extremely sharp.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that it was a sharp weapon that could blow and break hair.

The other knife was the vegetable knife that Yuan Zhou had used almost as many times as the miracle vegetable knife.
This knife was provided by the system at the very beginning and then the one that Yuan Zhou used when he first learned how to sharpen a knife.

The hilts of the two knives were made of wood.
The wooden patterns on them were clear and shiny, but they looked very handy.
They were often used knives.

Along with Yuan Zhou, two chopping boards and a bamboo basket were brought over.

“Peng”, Yuan Zhou placed the cutting board on the stone table and pushed it to hang Tian’s right-hand side where it was convenient to use.
The basket was placed in the middle of the table, containing some fresh vegetables, melons, fruits, a piece of tofu and two bowls filled with water.

Yuan Zhou also placed the basket gently and skillfully.
The water in the basket didn’t even ripple on the water surface, let alone spill out.

From that, one could see how steady Yuan Zhou was.

“Head chef Yuan’s hands are very steady.” Hang Tian could tell at a glance.

“This is what I should do.” Yuan Zhou said.

“Yes, a chef should have steady hands.” Hang Tian nodded in agreement.

“This is my knife.
This is called the miracle vegetable knife.
It’s sharp but doesn’t smell.
This one has no name, but it’s the knife I used since I opened my shop.” Yuan Zhou pointed at the two vegetable knives and introduced them one by one.

Yuan Zhou didn’t say that they were his companions or anything else, but from his solemn expression, one could tell the significance of the two vegetable knives to him.

“Then I’ll talk about my saber too.” Hang Tian opened the leather bag and revealed the knife inside.

The leather bag was stacked layer by layer, and one could only see a vegetable knife inserted in it after opening it layer by layer.
The knife looked ordinary, but from the wear and tear on the handle, it could be seen that it had been used for many years.

The blade was wider than an ordinary blade, but the back of the knife was one-third narrower than an ordinary vegetable knife.
It must have been polished continuously.

There were also some pouches of different sizes on the edge of the knife, but they were empty now.

“This knife has been with me since the first Huaiyang cuisine cultural festival ten years ago.
It has been with me for ten years.” Hang Tian said.

“You’ve taken good care of yourself.
” Yuan Zhou said.

“Indeed, there’s nothing special about this knife.
If it wasn’t for the careful maintenance, it wouldn’t have been kept until now.” Hang Tian nodded.

“Then I’ll use this knife today.” Yuan Zhou pointed at the nameless knife and said.

“No need.
Let me see this saber.
It’s a good saber.” Hang Tian quickly shook his head and refused.

As a chef, a chef with great knife skills, he could naturally recognize that miracle kitchen knife was of the best quality, whether it was the grinding quality, the material of the knife body or the materials used for the wooden handle.
The ingredients cut by such a knife were naturally of the best quality.

Moreover, he really wanted to see Yuan Zhou’s knife skills in the video.

“Okay, then I’ll use this last one.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

“That’s good.
” Hang Tian said.

“Although the state banquet is now focused on our Huaiyang cuisine, it is only because of its exquisiteness and delicacy.
The ingredients are simple and easy to get.
However, our Huaiyang cuisine is also faced with the same time-consuming and high requirements for cutting skills.
The taste is light or sweet, so it is not as easy and popular as your Sichuan cuisine.” Hang Tian said as he wiped his knife.

“Every cuisines have their own advantages, but knife skills are the foundation.” Yuan Zhou said with an indifferent tone.

“Yes, but how many people can calm down and do odd jobs for three years before learning to cook?” Hang Tian said.

“There will be.” Yuan Zhou thought of the customer who went to learn magic.

Ever since Yuan Zhou introduced him to Yuan Zhou, the customer came to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant less often.
However, Yuan Zhou could still see the changes in him every time he came.

Whether it was his increasingly calm temperament or the empty-handed tricks that he would occasionally perform, it was clear that he was working hard and serious.

“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore.
Let’s exchange some cutting skills.” Hang Tian pointed at the vegetables and fruits in the bamboo basket.

“Alright,” he said.
Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

“Thank you, head chef Yuan.
This must be the Baoying lotus root, right? it’s of very good quality.
It’s the same quality as the Lotus root used in the state banquet.
It’s a good ingredient.” Hang Tian immediately saw the White Lotus root and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

Hang Tian was both surprised that Yuan Zhou could take out such a top-grade food ingredient and also sighed with emotion at Yuan Zhou’s attentiveness.

The vegetables in the bamboo basket were all from the region of Yangzhou.
The Lotus root, Yangzhou’s local mushrooms, and the two pieces of familiar tofu were all ingredients that hang Tian was familiar with.

“Yes, it is indeed from the pond where the Lotus roots were used at the state banquet.” Yuan Zhou didn’t try to avoid the question and just said frankly.

“Head chef Yuan, you’re really good.” Hang Tian praised.

“No, it’s just that the supply of goods is amazing.” Yuan Zhou shook his head and said.

“This isn’t something an ordinary person can buy.” Hang Tian said that.
Meanwhile, he looked forward to Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills even more in his heart.

“Why don’t we start with this lotus root? it’s a crispy lotus root and is best served raw.
Although it’s not the best season, the taste is almost the same.
We can try it.” Yuan Zhou didn’t say much, but just pointed at the Lotus root and said.

“Alright,” he said.
Hang Tian nodded.

“You choose first.” Yuan Zhou reached out his hand and said.

“Then this old master won’t be polite.” Hang Tian did not stand on ceremony and chose a beautiful and crisp seven-hole lotus root.

“Please.” Yuan Zhou said.

When he held it in his hand, he realized that the Lotus root was white and had a strong fragrance.
It was obviously the beauty red of the treasure lotus root.
This kind of lotus root was sweet and crisp, and tasted like pear.

However, it would be fine to eat such a lotus root raw, but it would be troublesome to slice it up.
It was too brittle and there were holes in the middle.
It was easy to break from the holes when cutting.

A thick cut was fine, but a thin cut would really test one’s cutting skills.

“Let’s not compete in speed this time.
I’m old and can’t compare to head chef Yuan.
Why don’t we try to see how thin the crispy lotus root can be cut?” Hang Tian suggested.

“Alright,” he said.
Yuan Zhou agreed directly.

“Then let’s start.” Hang Tian said.

This time, Yuan Zhou just nodded his head and didn’t say anything.
He directly put on the face mask and started to cut the fish.
