17. The Gourmet Contest

The customers were surprised, “The 77th Gourmet Contest in the Second World. Don’t you know that?” To find more gifted chefs, the managers in the Second World held the Gourmet Contest every year. Not only would the champion chef receive a reward of 300,000 XB, but also a full promotion of 15 days of his store and a lost recipe.

“300,000 XB?” Gu Bai was overjoyed. It was exactly what he needed right now.

Was it the benefit for those who transmigrated?

“Man, watch the point. Shouldn’t you care more about the following promotion and the lost recipe? That’s what every contestant wants. “Although the guests had only known Gu Bai for a few days, they were helpless that Gu Bai missed the point.

“They both matter,” Gu Bai added. But inwardly, he still thought the money meant more to him.

What he needed the most now was money. As for the lost recipe, what he had in mind was worth more than that.

Fifteen days of store promotion? As long as he could make delicious food, would he worry about lacking guests?

All that mattered was money!

“Where should I register? Has the contest started?” asked Gu Bai anxiously.

“You can sign up on the official website. Trust me, if you do this, you will be at least among the top 5.”

“Yeah, mister, we’ll all back you up!”

“Then... Is it possible that you can extend your working time to the afternoon?” A customer asked.

“Sorry, I don’t think so. I’m checking the competition time right now. If it will be held in the morning, I’ll have to close the store for a whole day by then,” Gu Bai responded as he searched online.

The customers regretted mentioning it.

It was such a blow!

Why did they refer to the contest? They were supposed to raise Gu Bai’s enthusiasm to offer more food every day. But now, they had less time to enjoy the food. Moreover, if Gu Bai made his brand in the contest, more people would know him. By then, the competition to eat here would be worse.

Thinking of this, the customers all wished that time would flow back so that they could stop themselves from telling him the information.

Now the only thing they could wish for was the organizer wouldn’t set the contest in the morning. Also, they were hoping that Gu Bai could develop the farm faster. They couldn’t wait to taste the dishes in the real world and really swallow and digest them.

Seeing the customers off, Gu Bai closed the store and gave Mu Mu the food he had made specially. Then he checked on the official website for more information about the Gourmet Contest.

As the customers said, the champion of the Gourmet Competition would be rewarded 300,000, and the second and third winners would also gain 200,000 and 100,000 XB of rewards respectively.

In other words, as long as he could get the top three, there would be an XB reward, which was absolutely good news for him.

There was no limit to the requirements of the Gourmet Contest. It was divided into an audition and the official competition. Only 100 participants were qualified to attend the official one.

The previous competition mode was to eliminate 20 people in the first and second rounds. After that, 10 people were eliminated in each round. When there were only 20 contestants left, two people were eliminated in each round until the final round. If it went smoothly to the end, the contest would last for three months.
