Chatper 55: Become a pauper again
"What's going on?" Luo Qigang frowned and pointed to the public screen in the live broadcast room.
"This must be the fault of Apple Taiwan. Obviously they also know that Xiaobai's potential is huge. Are they going to strangle him in the cradle?" Su Yang's brows were also tightly wrinkled, almost killing the flies.
For Apple Taiwan's insidious tricks, Tomato Taiwan has long been prepared, but they did not expect that they would be the first to point the finger at Bai Xiaobai, and they were also going to use Tingyu's huge fans to suppress Bai Xiaobai.
It's just so nasty!
The key is that this matter appears to be a matter between Bai Xiaobai and Tingyu on the surface. As the organizers, they have not been able to help Bai Xiaobai outright, otherwise it will be bad for Xiaobai's reputation, and some people may even think that Xiaobai and the organizer have some unspeakable secrets.
It is because of this that people like Su Yang and Luo Qigang feel more depressed.
"Let's see how Xiaobai will respond first, and we will help when appropriate." Luo Qigang said calmly.
Now they can only stand still and wait and see what happens.
But this account, they recorded it to Apple Desk, and they will settle it together later.
If Apple Taiwan competes fairly, they will not be afraid at all, and even if they lose, they will be convinced, but if they use despicable means to compete, then they will never make each other better!
Gu Bai didn't know this, and all his thoughts were on the barbecue.
He also hadn't eaten barbecued meat for a long time. The burnt aroma of the meat kept tempting him. If it wasn't during the competition, he would definitely not be able to bear it. very delicious.
If there is a chance, he also wants to make skewers, eat skewers and drink cold beer, which is simply the enjoyment of life, but I don't know if there is beer in this world.
The time for the competition passed bit by bit, and Gu Bai's barbecue became more and more intense. The spicy chili powder, the special fragrance of cumin powder, and the burnt aroma from the open fire were mixed together, which made people's appetites open. , the index finger moved, and even the judges' eyes drifted towards Gu Bai's side involuntarily. It was the first time that he could not wait so much for the competition to end soon.
Gu Bai lived up to his expectations. With the expectations of the five judges and a host, he finally turned off the fire, finished the roasting, and sliced the roasted meat into slices, each with the outermost browned part.
In addition, two serving plates are prepared, one is a dry dish consisting of cumin powder and salt, and the other is a wet dish with spicy sauce.
Gu Bai was afraid that the time to marinate the barbecue would not be enough to taste delicious, so he specially prepared two saucepans to supplement it.
"Hurry up, bring Bai Xiaobai's barbecue." Si Xiao, the only woman among the five judges, said impatiently, so she almost stood up and served it in person.
There are also many contestants who have completed the barbecue before Gu Bai. Everyone's barbecue tastes the same, and there are also other meat dishes. Among them, the judges think that they are not bad and have great potential, but they are Gu Bai's barbecue. As soon as it was over, the attention of all the judges was immediately drawn to the past.
Gu Bai still divided the barbecue into five portions, each with a dry and wet dish for the judges to choose.
"What is this?" Si Xiao tried his best to resist the urge to start eating, looking at the dish and asking Gu Bai.
She still remembered that when she ate the spring rolls, there was also a plate, but everyone ate it so fast that they didn't notice it at all, and only saw it after eating, wouldn't it be embarrassing.
Therefore, having learned the lessons from the past, this time the judges barely controlled themselves and prepared to ask clearly before eating.
"Here is the dry dish with salty taste, and here is the wet dish with spicy taste. Because the marinating time of the barbecue is too short, it may not be tasty enough. These two dishes are supplementary, and you can choose a suitable Dip to your own taste." Gu Bai explained.
After listening to Si Xiao, he couldn't wait to take a piece of barbecue. First, he dipped in a little dry plate, the taste of the barbecue itself was very rich, and a little saltiness made the taste of the barbecue more full of layers. , Jiaoxiang with a touch of salty, let people aftertaste.
Immediately afterwards, Si Xiao picked up another slice, this time dipped in a spicy wet dish. The first feeling after entering it was spicy, hot, as if his mouth was about to breathe fire, but soon the aroma of the barbecue itself was released. Come out, the spicy taste is diluted, but they complement each other, making the barbecue taste more delicious.
Whether it's a salty dry dish or a spicy wet dish, Si Xiao likes it all.
But obviously not all the judges like the two dishes equally, some prefer to dip in salt, some prefer to dip in chili sauce, and some even prefer the taste of the barbecue itself, it is delicious without dipping anything. .
There was also a debate among the judges. If Meng Bingyan hadn't come out to stop this somewhat off-topic review, the judges might have fought hard.
But there is no doubt that whether it is salt or chili sauce, or nothing for dipping, they are extremely satisfied with the barbecue itself and give high marks.
In this game, Gu Bai deservedly won the first place.
"Congratulations Xiaobai, can I share the rest of the roast meat with me?" Fang Weixuan set his sights on the rest of the roast meat when he saw that the judges were blushing and arguing with gusto.
"It doesn't taste very good inside." Gu Bai hesitated.
Due to the time, the roast he made was relatively large, but only the outermost layer was reserved for the judges.
It stands to reason that the inside needs to continue to be roasted until browned, then sliced off, then roasted and sliced again, until all the roasts can be fully cooked by the open flame.
"It doesn't matter, I don't mind." Fang Weixuan's smile became even more brilliant. Even though these were not perfect in Gu Bai's eyes, they were already quite delicious in his eyes, right?
As expected, it is his idol, he is amazing.
Seeing that Fang Weixuan really wanted to eat, Gu Bai had no choice but to hand him the rest of the barbecue and dipping sauce.
So, Fang Weixuan ate like this, waiting for the other players to be reviewed one after another, and then announced the list of promotions. The other players who watched were envious and jealous.
Of course, in addition to this, all the barrages in the live broadcast room were all "bashing" Fang Weixuan.
[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhly 】
【Are you dreaming upstairs? If you want to participate in the competition, you must first know how to cook, otherwise you will not be able to pass the audition. 】
[It’s so sad, so sad, when will the organizer start the offline live broadcast ah ah ah, if the offline live broadcast is not carried out, I will explode your Xingbo. 】
[As soon as the Apple Channel started, it attracted most of the audience. If you don’t change it, you will be completely suppressed by the Apple Channel. It is strongly requested to live broadcast offline! 】
[If it wasn't for Xiaobai, I wouldn't be able to persevere. Every time I could only see that I couldn't eat it, is there anything more torturing than this? 】
After three games, there were forty players left.
This time, although Gu Bai's barbecue successfully held the audience again and attracted many fans, the overall number of viewers of the live broadcast was much lower than usual, which was obviously sucked up by Apple TV.
After the game, the atmosphere in the entire organizer team was a little dignified, and everyone's expressions were not very good.
"Change the location of the competition next time, and send a message to the contestants two hours before the competition." Luo Qigang ordered decisively.
Although changing the mode of the game was already in the Tomato Station's plan, they were still very upset by being so passively made by the Apple Station.
Now that they're upset, the culprit has to be even more upset.
Gu Bai didn't even notice the open and secret battle between the Tomato Station and the Apple Station, listening to Yu's specious remarks, because he was all focused on the crops that were about to ripen on his farm at the moment.
The edge planet is on the edge of the Huaxia Empire. It is one of the most distant planets from the core of the empire. The transportation is inconvenient and the development is backward, so it is so poor.
Although ordinary people on other planets cannot access natural food, rich people still have access, and there are no rich people on the edge planets. Even if there are, they will not be able to access natural food. The addiction to food can only be experienced in the second world.
Now, the crops on Gu Bai's farm can be said to be the only natural food grown by humans on the edge planet.
The crops on his farm are about to mature, and he will no longer have to drool and stare at the delicacies of the second world in the future, he can also eat what he wants in reality.
It's just that the first time he planted only one mu of land, and the number was not large, but the success of this planting gave him confidence and allowed him to increase the scale.
I believe that there will be more and more types of crops on the farm in the future, and one day it will be able to reach the level where he can do whatever he wants.
However, the crops on Gu Bai's farm are mainly staple foods, and vegetables are also available, but there are no condiments at all. If you want to cook and eat by yourself, you have to go to the grocery store to buy them.
Before, Gu Bai was reluctant to buy ingredients in the mall because the shipping cost was too expensive, but now these condiments have to be purchased, otherwise the dishes will lose their soul and the taste will be greatly reduced.
Fortunately, during this period of time, the small restaurant in the second world brought him a lot of income, and he is now considered a small asset.
Gu Bai excitedly opened the ingredients store and searched for the condiments he needed. He had to buy more salt, peppercorns, peppers, chili peppers, etc. After all, the one-time shipping fee was too expensive, so it was more cost-effective to buy more, and these condiments could be stored for a long time. .
But when Gu Bai excitedly added all the ingredients he needed to the shopping cart, and when he was about to pay, he looked at the huge amount and pumped in distress.
Half of the small treasury he had managed to accumulate was removed at once, and the remaining half was spent on the purchase of seeds for various crops.
Gu Bai, who finally managed to become a small wealthy man, returned to the ranks of the pauper again overnight.
Money is a good thing, but it has no fate with him.
But fortunately, when he has all the materials ready, he can live broadcast offline. When the trial is opened on the star network, it will be a large sum of money, which is also a great comfort.
