Gu Zheng slept for the whole afternoon and didn't wake up when Mumu called. Only in the evening did he see the message for him.
Gu Zheng himself didn't expect that a draft he casually wrote to deal with Mumu's urging would have such a big impact. Now that the draft had been sent out and he had agreed to the challenge, he could only take one step at a time.
But for now, he didn't lose anything.
Gu Zheng was very grateful for Mumu's care and advice. He also replied to the message, saying that he was very confident and wouldn't feel any pressure.
Gu Zheng was indeed confident. His confidence came from the inferior ingredients he had prepared this time, as well as from his culinary skills and immortal energy. If the ingredients, culinary skills, and supplementary factors were to be counted as ten points, Gu Zheng would be able to get about nine points. The only thing he lacked was experience, the experience of making duck blood vermicelli soup.
Even if he used the same ingredients, Gu Zheng, who had the support of immortal power, would not lose to the taste of the food made by the head chef, not to mention that his ingredients were more than one level higher than the other party.
The difference in ingredients was a gap that the other party couldn't make up for with cooking skills. This was the source of his confidence.
After washing up and eating dinner, Gu Zheng once again entered the chaotic space.
In the afternoon, he slept because he had exhausted his immortal power. The immortal power was all exhausted outside. In the past three days, he would exhaust his immortal power outside once every day, and then exhaust it again in the chaotic space. Every time he recovered his immortal power, it would increase a little. Little drops make a mickle, and the increase in immortal power was also very considerable.
In the chaotic space, the immortal rice and immortal vegetables that had been harvested last time had been replanted. The reward Gu Zheng received was not a one-time thing. As long as he harvested them, new seeds would fly out by themselves and automatically be planted in the ground. This meant that he would have an endless supply of immortal rice and immortal vegetables to harvest in the future.
This made Gu Zheng excited for a long time.
In addition to the immortal rice and immortal vegetables, there were also ten immortal chickens in the corner. The immortal chickens had grown a little. One of them was bigger than the other immortal chickens, three or four times bigger.
The reason why this immortal chicken was like this was because Gu Zheng had been using immortal power to stimulate it for the past two days, so it grew faster than the other immortal chickens.
Immortal energy could improve the quality of food ingredients, but it could also accelerate the growth of food ingredients. The immortal rice and immortal vegetables were harvested two days in advance because of Gu Zheng's immortal energy. The same was true for the immortal chicken. Originally, it had a growth period of 30 days. If Gu Zheng used three days to accelerate the growth of the immortal chicken, it could directly grow to maturity without any side effects.
"It's good to improve the quality of ducks...........
Gu Zheng grumbled, but his body still went to the front of the immortal chicken. He used his hand to grab the chicken's wings, and immortal energy began to slowly circulate in his palm.
Accelerating the growth of immortal chickens was not Gu Zheng's idea, but a suggestion given to him by the artifact spirit. After Gu Zheng obtained the second-grade sweet potatoes and other ingredients, he was lucky enough to find a second-grade duck.
The process of obtaining this duck was a little unexpected. He and Du Yang were looking for a relative of his to help make sweet potato powder. They found it in a family's house in the mountains. In the end, they spent a hundred yuan to buy this duck.
Gu Zheng himself did not know how to make sweet potato powder. One of Du Yang's relatives knew how to make it. He had heard Du Yang mention it before, so when he found the sweet potato, he asked Du Yang to help. The two of them found the sweet potato powder that the relative processed overnight. For this less than three kilograms of powder, Gu Zheng took out an extra five hundred yuan as an emergency processing fee.
Gu Zheng did not care about this money. To him, it was fine as long as he could win. If he won, it meant that the rice marrow fusion method that should have been obtained after completing the test could be obtained through a normal challenge.
In this way, he was the one who profited.
With all the ingredients prepared, Gu Zheng wanted to improve the quality of some of the ingredients. He wanted to raise the quality of some of the ingredients to normal, especially the main ingredients, duck and vermicelli. As long as the quality of the duck reached normal, even if his culinary skills were average, he would still have an overwhelming victory over the head chef. The difference between normal ingredients and trash ingredients was too great. The taste would be completely different.
This difference in taste was like comparing a fresh apple with a ripe sweet apple. There was no way to compare.
However, the artifact spirit stopped him. He did not let him improve the quality of the duck. Instead, he asked him to accelerate the growth of an immortal chicken. The artifact spirit's reason was very simple. Since he could guarantee that he would win, he did not need to waste too much effort.
No matter how good the duck blood and vermicelli soup was, it was someone else's cooking skill. He had not made chicken blood soup even once after learning how to make it. It was better to prepare it for himself. This was an ordinary immortal chicken. The chicken blood soup made from it would taste better.
Gu Zheng really agreed to the artifact spirit's request. He had been accelerating the growth of the immortal chicken for two consecutive days. Today was already the third day. It was too late for him to regret now.
Although he was complaining, Gu Zheng's hands did not stop. In order to accelerate the growth of the immortal chicken, he had taken a precious immortal essence pill. Now that his immortal power was richer, he could play a greater role.
Early the next morning, the duck blood and vermicelli soup store, which was located on Pujian Road and was more than 300 square meters, became lively.
For this challenge, the store's headquarters was not open in the morning. Not only did their head chef come to the store early, but the company's general manager, vice general manager, and other executives also came to the scene.
This challenge was launched on the Food Channel. However, it was not only the Food Channel that was paying attention. There were also some other media. These media did not live broadcast like the Food Channel, but they also came to the scene. When they went back, they would definitely publish a press release.
Being paid attention to by so many media, if it was done well, it would be a living advertisement. That was why the whole company paid so much attention to it.
In order to ensure fairness, the Food Channel's website specially invited some people from the Food Association to be the judges. They were also worried that the duck blood and vermicelli soup store's people would not admit defeat. These judges were all prestigious people in the circle. With them, the website was relieved.
This was all due to the efforts of Mu Mu and Director Wu. They did this to support Gu Zheng. As long as the taste of Gu Zheng's cooking was really good, they did not have to worry about being slandered. At least they could give him a fair treatment.
The appointed time was ten o 'clock in the morning. At 9: 30, the website, the media, and the judges all arrived. The store became very lively. The head chef also put on his chef's uniform, prepared all the ingredients, and sat inside waiting.
"Mu Mu, why haven't you come yet?"
Director Wu of the Food Channel also came. It was almost 9: 50, but Gu Zheng still hadn't arrived. Although the competition started at ten o 'clock, it was necessary to come early to familiarize with the venue and prepare the ingredients. All these required time. Gu Zheng still hadn't arrived yet, which made them all very anxious.
"Director Wu, I'm urging you. Please wait a moment!"
Mu Mu took her phone out and prepared to call Gu Zheng. However, before she dialed the number, she was stunned. She stared blankly at the three people who were walking in hurriedly.
Of the three people, two of them were holding a big box in their hands. The one in the middle was holding a box in his hands.
"It's you, the egg omelet master?"
Mu Mu appeared very surprised. She had been busy these days and only went to Shu Yu's restaurant once. Knowing that the egg omelet master was not in good health, she didn't go there again. She had planned to go to Shu Yu's restaurant to reward herself after this challenge was over. She did not expect to meet the egg omelet master here today.
"Hello, Madame Mu. I'm sorry to hide it from you for so long. I just don't want to compete!"
Gu Zheng held the box in one hand and stretched out the other hand. Mu Mu was as if struck by lightning. She reached out her hand and shook hands with Gu Zheng blankly.
Don't want to compete. That egg omelet master actually didn't want to compete.
