Chapter 53 Progress Bar
Mo Qingyan was of course happy that the food she cooked was recognized by professionals.
The most important thing is Gao Moqi's trust in himself.
After selling the beef offal, it was six o'clock when I got home.
Today's beef offal is selling very fast.
So, I can go home early to eat.
Tonight's dinner was prepared by Chef Zhang.
Maybe it was because the beef offal was so delicious that the food prepared by Chef Zhang tasted just average.
Naturally, they had no appetite, so Song Beichen and the others simply ate two bites.
Mo Qingyan didn't spoil them. Although they paid for their meals, she was not their full-time chef. It was okay for her to cook one or two meals occasionally.
Of course it is not possible to do it every day.
Besides, he couldn't possibly cook for them all his life.
After dinner, everyone played games in the living room.
Needless to say, playing games on this big screen is so addictive.
Even Mo Qingyan, who didn't play games much, played until after ten o'clock.
After winning the last round of the game, Mo Qingyan put down the game controller and said, "Okay, it's almost time. I should take a shower and go to bed early. I have to get up early to work tomorrow!"
"Work?"
Song Beichen and others stood up at the same time.
Yin Yiyi opened her big eyes and looked at Mo Qingyan, "Brother Mo, are you still going to make beef offal tomorrow?"
"Yes, otherwise how can we eat all the cows?"
After saying that, Mo Qingyan turned around and went back to her room.
Cheers from Yin Yiyi and others came from behind.
Mo Qingyan closed the door and couldn't help shaking her head. These second-generations were all foodies.
After returning to the room, Mo Qingyan opened her public account as usual.
As expected, just over two hours after the live broadcast, his public account already had hundreds of thousands of messages.
They all cried out in his comment section, begging him to feed them.
This public account was registered by the original owner after joining the show.
Every guest here needs to have a public account.
Before Mo Qingyan was reborn, the original owner already had more than 300,000 fans.
Of course, the original owner’s face and the program team’s publicity are indispensable here.
Now, the number of fans of his public account has reached more than five million.
Even though he only has over 5 million fans, these fans are real fans. Unlike some celebrity artists who seem to have 10 or 20 million fans, in fact, most of them bought their fans.
The number of real fans is estimated to be less than five million!
In just over two hours, there were already hundreds of thousands of messages and comments.
In terms of fan activity, they are not inferior to first-tier celebrities.
Mo Qingyan couldn't help laughing when she saw the comments asking for feedback.
Suddenly I felt that this kind of life as a breeder is also very good.
So, Mo Qingyan sent a message directly.
[We will continue to sell beef offal tomorrow, first come first served (smile)! 】
Originally, those fans just came to Mo Qingyan’s public account to ask for feedback as a routine.
Mo Qingyan had never responded before, and his public account had only posted some advertising promotions from the program team.
This is the first and only private message I sent myself.
Seeing Mo Qingyan post the message, the fans were immediately excited.
"He's resurrected... Someone come quickly, Brother Mo is resurrected..."
"This is unbelievable. Brother Mo is actually dead. Brother Mo, please tell me, are you real? You are not a staff member of the program pretending to be you, right?"
"I suspect that Brother Mo was kidnapped by the production team. This must be a fake message sent by Brother Mo. Don't believe it."
"Yes, yes, this information must be false. How could Brother Mo go to sell beef offal again tomorrow? It's so troublesome to make beef offal! Is our Brother Mo a hardworking person?"
"Let it go, let it go. There's nothing good about fake news."
"The people above, do you think you are smart, or are we stupid (contempt)?"
"You are so shameless, you think you can get the beef offal with such a dirty trick? Didn't you see Brother Mo said it's first come first served?"
"I will go there at dawn tomorrow to queue up. I don't believe I won't be able to buy it."
…
Mo Qingyan was enjoying watching her fans being clever in their comments under her public account.
Suddenly, I received a message from Gao Moqi.
Gao Moqi: Will you sell beef offal tomorrow afternoon?
Mo Qingyan: Yes, will the senior judges come to support us?
Gao Moqi: There will be an awards ceremony for the food competition tomorrow.
The finals of the food competition have already begun today.
According to the previous competition plan, the final was supposed to take two days.
However, yesterday, Mo Qingyan’s beef offal stew came out. This directly broke the defense of more than half of the top ten contestants.
Among them is Zhou Ningren, who is the strongest.
Zhou Ningren, who originally won first place, chose to withdraw from the competition.
Six other participating chefs also withdrew from the competition at the same time.
So, in the end, only Li Zhenmin and two other contestants were left.
This contestant is gone.
Naturally, the final could only be held one day in advance.
Based on strength, it was natural that Li Zhenmin won the championship.
Tomorrow is the award ceremony.
This competition was ruined by Mo Qingyan's beef.
Mo Qingyan: I understand. You can’t come, right? Let me make it clear first, I can’t take the back door here! If you want to eat beef offal, you have to queue up to buy it. I have bribed the judge too much today, but I can’t do that again tomorrow. After all, I am very poor and I need to make money to live.
Make money to live?
Gao Moqi thought that if he remembered correctly, the cow used to make the offal was a Xiangguo cow worth 2.5 million.
A Xiangguo cattle weighs about 200 kilograms. Even if calculated by kilogram, the cost of a Xiangguo cattle is about 15,000 yuan per kilogram.
Mo Qingyan directly sold the beef offal for 100 yuan per half catty.
That’s equivalent to 200 yuan per kilogram.
Although there is the weight of radish in it.
But there is also a lot of beef in it.
This price of 100 yuan is not even a fraction of the cost.
It was impossible for Mo Qingyan to make any money. On the contrary, the more she sold, the more money she lost.
Gao Moqi: No, I’m leaving City B tomorrow.
Mo Qingyan: So?
Gao Moqi: Can I find a few riders to buy more copies?
Mo Qingyan didn't expect that Gao Moqi came to ask her because of this.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This guy was looking for someone to queue up, and he actually came to ask him questions.
Isn't this equivalent to directly telling the invigilator that you are going to cheat?
However, Gao Moqi's actions were not considered true cheating.
After all, Mo Qingyan only said that each person is limited to purchasing one, and finding a rider to sell it on their behalf did not violate the regulations.
It’s just that everyone should keep this matter tacitly understood. Gao Moqi spoke to him so honestly that Mo Qingyan suddenly didn’t know how to respond to him.
Mo Qingyan: Sure. Just next time, please don't tell me. After all, it’s hard for me to reply to you about this kind of thing.
Gao Moqi: I understand.
Seeing Gao Moqi turned off his phone, Xu Yili couldn't wait to ask, "What's going on? Did Brother Mo say it's okay?"
"Okay." Gao Moqi said.
Hearing this answer, Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief. "See, I told you it was okay. You insisted on asking Brother Mo. I don't know how many people asked riders to line up to buy for them today. Brother Mo didn't stop them."
Today they asked the riders to queue up for them.
Some people just ask the riders to buy for them.
Xu Yi immediately thought of this loophole.
Although each person is limited to one portion, as long as they ask the rider to buy it for them, can't they eat more?
Unexpectedly, Xu Yi told Gao Moqi about this idea, and Gao Moqi said he wanted to ask Mo Qingyan's opinion.
Then there was the scene of the two of them chatting just now.
Gao Moqi disagreed, "Some things cannot be decided on your own."
Xu Yi said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I know that you, the tall judge, abide by the rules and are impartial. Then I will call today's rider right away and ask him to find a few more people to line up tomorrow."
"Speaking of which, Mo Qi, this is the first time I've heard you talk so much. Normally, you can barely utter a few words to me in a day. And you actually took the initiative to add Brother Mo as a friend, whereas before it was always others who took the initiative to add you."
Xu Yi has known Gao Moqi for so many years, but this is the first time he has seen Gao Moqi be so proactive.
Although Gao Moqi is handsome, he has a high IQ. In fact, the emotional intelligence is zero.
In his eyes, there is nothing but delicious food.
The number of people who can make him take the initiative can be counted on one hand.
The most important thing is that he could actually take the initiative to chat with Mo Qingyan for such a long time. He took the initiative to talk to Mo Qingyan more than he talked to him in a week.
Gao Moqi said calmly: "His cooking skills are worth it."
"Really? Did I make the right recommendation this time?" Xu Yi felt that he could finally be proud of himself in front of Gao Moqi.
After all, the person he recommended was highly recognized by Gao Moqi.
Mo Qingyan looked at the chat history between herself and Gao Moqi and couldn't help shaking her head.
Although I am not very familiar with Gao Moqi.
However, from the few times they had spent time together, Mo Qingyan could also see it.
Gao Moqi is a relatively upright person, but I didn't expect him to be so straight.
After Mo Qingyan finished her shower, she wiped her hair and shouted, "System, open the lottery page."
Yesterday at the auction, after buying four fragrant fruit cattle, I completed the intermediate level of spending money task.
However, Mo Qingyan hasn’t drawn the lottery yet.
It just so happens that all the beef offal are sold out today, so I can take a break for a while.
I took a shower before drawing the lottery. I was wondering if my luck would be better, and it would be great if I could win cash or something.
Open the lottery board and take a look.
This prize has everything.
A car worth more than 100 million yuan and a house worth several hundred million yuan. There are also shares of various large and small companies.
Mo Qingyan was not interested in any of these.
He just wants cash now.
This mission gave him a strong sense of crisis.
Not to mention that the amount of this task has increased.
Not only that, the mission time is also shortened.
The penalty for the mission also changed from emptying his wallet to emptying his life bar.
Mo Qingyan had just been reborn not long ago, and his new life had just begun. He didn't want it to end so soon.
So, he is in urgent need of cash backup.
In case the system suddenly issues him a task.
Without money, he feels insecure and feels his life is threatened at any time.
Of course, he could also wait another three days.
At that time, all the money given to Taozui can be taken back.
But who can guarantee that there will be no accidents in these three days?
After all, there is no pattern in how this system issues tasks; it is all random.
So, the best way is to win the cash.
Fortunately, there is cash among the prizes in this lottery.
Moreover, there are actually 200 million Chinese yuan.
However, there are a total of 10 prizes in this lottery.
In other words, the probability of winning a cash prize is only one in ten.
This probability is a bit too small.
Suddenly, Mo Qingyan discovered that there was a lottery progress bar in the upper right corner of the lottery page.
At this time, the progress bar of the prodigal lottery was actually filled up by a quarter.
"System, what is this loser lottery progress bar?"
It seems that this thing didn’t exist during the last lottery.
System: [Progress bar of the prodigal lottery, which collects other people’s recognition of the host’s prodigal status after completing the prodigal task. 】
[The higher the recognition of the host's spending power by others, the greater the probability that the host will win the desired lottery prize. When the progress bar is filled, the host will have a 100% chance of winning the desired lottery prize. 】
“100% chance of winning your desired raffle prize?”
In other words, as long as this progress bar is filled up, he will 100% be able to get the 100 million in cash.
"So, system, how does one gain recognition as a spendthrift?" Mo Qingyan couldn't wait to know.
Then the system said, "Host, please explore on your own." 】
Let him figure it out on his own?
How does he grope?
Mo Qingyan is now completely confused.
It can't be that this recognition as a spendthrift means he has to spend money, right?
What is the recognition level of the spendthrift after the spendthrift mission?
He has already completed his mission of squandering money, is there any other way to make people think that he is squandering money?
Wait, does it count if you use Xiangguo beef to make beef offal?
The Xiangguo beef is very valuable, so he just makes it into beef offal and sells it for only 100 yuan per portion.
This should be considered as a waste of money, right?
Mo Qingyan looked at the progress bar that was already one quarter completed.
He bought four fragrant fruit cows and used one to make beef offal today.
And this progress bar is only one quarter completed.
Isn't this a bit too coincidental?
Since we are not sure, we will know after we sell the beef offal tomorrow.
No, if I only sell one cow tomorrow, it will be a little too little.
Didn’t a lot of fans say that they queued for a long time today but couldn’t buy beef offal?
Then of course he has to consider the feelings of those fans, right?
Thinking of this, Mo Qingyan immediately called the auction.
Ask them to process the remaining three fragrant fruit cattle and send them over tomorrow morning.
The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning, the auction delivered three freshly slaughtered fragrant fruit cattle.
Three freshly slaughtered fragrant fruit cattle were piled up in the kitchen, almost filling up the entire kitchen.
Seeing the three cows being delivered, Steward Wang asked, "Sir, are all three going to be used for making offal, or just one?"
Mo Qingyan said: "Do all three."
"Okay, I'll let them handle it."
With yesterday's experience, Chef Zhang led Aunt Zhang and others to start processing the three fragrant fruit beef in an orderly manner.
First, all the beef bones are removed and used to make soup.
Next, start processing the beef offal.
Mo Qingyan had already demonstrated the method of processing beef offal yesterday.
They can also handle it with ease.
With the help of Chef Zhang and others, Mo Qingyan could feel much more relaxed.
He only needs to prepare the spices for cooking the beef offal in advance, then watch the time and let Chef Zhang and others put in the different ingredients in turn and cook them.
Three fragrant fruit beefs require nine large pots of soup.
Fortunately, Mo Qingyan’s kitchen is big enough.
Otherwise I really can’t make it through.
9 big pots of beef bone soup were boiled together, and the aroma was three times as fragrant as yesterday.
Not long after the soup was cooked, the aroma spread throughout the house.
It has even started to drift away.
Song Beichen and others were awakened by the fragrance.
There's no way, the fragrance is just too good.
They stayed here again last night, but due to limited rooms, they could only share two people in one room.
But this is not a problem for them at all.
After all, the bed in the room was big enough.
The four followed the smell to the kitchen, and were stunned when they saw the nine large pots and a large pile of beef offal and beef.
“Why is there so much beef?”
"Brother Mo, you didn't kill all three cows, did you?"
Mo Qingyan, who was busy at the stove, looked back at them and saw that their hair was messy, obviously they came out without washing. She replied, "Yes, all the beef has been cooked today. You guys hurry up and wash up and have breakfast later."
After hearing Mo Qingyan's instructions, the four people went to wash up obediently.
By the time they came out after washing up, the breakfast prepared by Chef Zhang was already on the table.
The breakfast is very rich, with buns, porridge, noodles and everything else.
However, the four people's minds were not on breakfast at all, and their eyes kept drifting towards the kitchen.
Although I had smelled the aroma of the beef bone soup yesterday, I have already developed immunity to it.
But today's beef bone soup is more fragrant than yesterday's.
They really can't resist!
After a quick breakfast, they immediately started helping to peel garlic.
They can't do other work, but they are quite skilled at peeling garlic.
The garlic chili sauce made by Mo Qingyan yesterday was warmly welcomed.
Almost everyone asks for the chili garlic sauce.
So, I have to make three buckets of garlic chili sauce today.
Of course, a lot of garlic is needed.
Because Mo Qingyan said on her public account yesterday that she would continue selling beef offal today.
Therefore, as soon as the live broadcast room opened, many people immediately entered the room and started watching Mo Qingyan and others make beef offal.
Some people even held a notebook and took notes while reading.
After all, since you can't eat the beef offal made by Mo Qingyan, it's a good idea to make it yourself.
Among them are many chefs working in the catering industry, who also come here to learn from them.
However, when they saw the nine large barrels of soup and the huge pile of beef offal and beef in the kitchen, they were surprised.
"Why is there so much meat? Isn't Brother Mo only cooking one cow today?"
"Look at this meat. Could it be that Brother Mo cooked all three cows?"
"It must be. Yesterday, we cooked three pots of soup for the offal of one cow. Now we have nine pots of soup, so it must be cooked for three cows."
"Oh my god, so, there will be thousands of servings of beef offal today?"
"Then I have a chance too? No, I'll take my food and go line up right now. Maybe I can actually have a chance to eat Brother Mo's beef offal."
…
Yesterday, many owners of Guangming Garden sent people to queue up in front of Mo Qingyan's stall.
It’s just that some go early and some go late.
So, some people got it and some didn’t.
Those who didn’t buy it were very disappointed.
After eating, those who bought it immediately went to the owner group to show off and share.
Many owners of Guangming Garden are extremely greedy.
Early this morning, I smelled the familiar smell again.
Moreover, the fragrance is stronger than yesterday.
Not to mention the ignorant children, even adults can't stand it.
The owners' group started to get lively again.
"No, it smells too good. I must buy this beef offal today."
"I asked my aunt to queue up yesterday. But she didn't buy it. I have to buy it today. The smell was so delicious that I couldn't sleep all night."
"Go, go, go. I'll ask people to line up now. I don't believe that I won't be able to eat this time."
"I just watched the live broadcast, and it said that the owner of 1801 prepared three cows this time. We will definitely be able to eat it this time."
"That's great. My dear grandson also kept making a fuss all night, saying that he wanted to eat this beef offal. I have to buy it this time no matter what."
…
Then, I saw a large group of domestic helpers appearing in groups at the entrance of the community.
The one guarding the door was a new security guard. When he saw us, he asked in confusion, "Aunties, is there some kind of event going on? Why are you all going out together?"
The aunts answered one after another:
"My wife said she wanted to eat beef offal and asked me to queue up to buy it."
"My young master also wants to eat beef offal. When I went to queue up yesterday, I couldn't buy any. If I go earlier today, I will definitely be able to buy some."
"Stop talking, you have to get in line quickly, otherwise, you won't be able to get in line if you wait."
…
Queuing up to buy beef offal?
The young security guard looked back at the wall clock in the security room.
It's only nine o'clock.
These aunties are queuing up to buy beef offal?
Is that how you work so hard?
No, he had to go, otherwise if he queued up at noon, he might not even get a drop of soup.
The young security guard immediately called the security captain who was on patrol.
The security captain was surprised when he heard this. "Are you going to line up now? So early? Wait for me, I'll line up with you."
Yesterday, after eating half a portion of beef offal brought back by the little security guard, the security captain was amazed!
The taste is absolutely amazing.
He kept thinking about the smell all night and couldn't sleep.
So, when he got to work early this morning, the security captain immediately told the security guard that he would have to queue up with him to buy beef offal.
After all, this half portion of beef offal was gone in just a few bites.
It's not even enough to fill the gaps between your teeth.
So, he thought about queuing up with his little security guard today and buying one to satisfy his craving.
Then, the security team leader and the security guard asked for leave and went to queue up to buy beef offal.
When Mo Qingya learned about it, his stall was already full of people lining up at around nine o'clock.
Everyone was shocked.
He doesn't open his stall until five in the afternoon. These people go there so early. Are they prepared to wait for a whole day without eating or drinking?
How can this be possible?
Moreover, it is so hot today that even if you are not exposed to the sun, you can easily get heatstroke if you wait outside for so long!
Therefore, Mo Qingyan instructed Butler Wang to get a queue machine to issue numbers.
Only 900 numbers will be released today. Those who have got the number can just wait for the stall to open and then queue up to buy beef offal with the number.
This way you don't have to stand outside waiting all day.
Of course, if the number has expired by then, it will become invalid.
At first, some people hesitated to join the queue because it was too long. I heard that Mo Qingyan was going to release the number directly, and then I could queue up and buy it with the number.
Suddenly I couldn't sit still anymore.
If one has to wait a whole day without eating or drinking to buy some beef offal, many people would not be able to endure it.
It is also very easy to get heatstroke in this kind of weather.
However, if they get a number and then queue up to buy beef offal when the time comes, they are absolutely willing to do so.
This way they don't have to wait so long.
When Butler Wang arrived, the team had already circled several times.
900 numbers, all released at once.
Those who got the number were very excited.
Those who didn’t get a number were crying and shouting.
There was a lot of bustle in front of Mo Qingyan's stall. On the contrary, the food competition award ceremony was particularly deserted.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Mo Qingyan went to set up the stall on time.
Before he set up his stall, those who had taken numbers had already lined up.
Almost half of these teams were wearing rider vests.
Gao Moqi and Xu Yi were not the only ones who thought of having riders queue up to buy beef offal on their behalf.
Just like yesterday, the riders called by Gao Moqi and Xu Yi got the first number.
They bought 10 copies at once.
That’s right, 10 servings.
Mo Qingyan was surprised when she saw them buying so much. Unexpectedly, these two people are quite good eaters.
After getting the beef offal, Gao Moqi dragged his suitcase, got in the car, and headed straight for the high-speed train.
Xu Yi carried the packed, fragrant beef offal, ready to go home and enjoy it slowly.
Unexpectedly, he was suddenly stopped by two bodyguards in suits and wearing headsets.
