A lucky cat fell from the sky.

Chapter 30 Nickname: Foodie Bro

The Golden Steamed Bun Competition is held every five years. On the surface, it's a performance competition to attract diners, but in reality, it involves a business ownership issue. Zhang Fei Steamed Bun Shop was originally run by three brothers: the eldest was surnamed Liu, the second was surnamed Guan, and the youngest was surnamed Zhang. When they first opened the shop, the eldest brother provided the money, the second brother provided the labor, and the youngest brother made the steamed buns. As a result, the steamed bun shop became an instant hit.

When brothers go into business together, everything is fine when things are not going well, but once they become successful and make money, the issue of profit sharing arises.

The three brothers argued fiercely over this, and later sought mediation from an elder in the Longqiu Gu family. The elder gave them an idea: one family would run the business for five years, while the other two families would take a share. After five years, they would compete for the management rights through a "Golden Bun Competition".

Therefore, these three contenders are actually invited by Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei to compete for the main operating rights.

At this point in the competition, Wu Cheng suddenly said he wanted to join.

The person in charge glanced at Wu Cheng and figured that Wu Cheng was so thin and weak that he couldn't eat much, so he made a prediction in his mind that Wu Cheng was just there to freeload on the buns.

He also knew the inside story behind the Golden Bun Competition and, not wanting to cause any trouble, wanted to scare Wu Cheng away: "Registration is possible, but you need to pay a registration fee of 500 yuan."

so expensive?

Wu Cheng hesitated for a moment, but it made sense.

So many steamed buns are being eaten for free. If no one pays for them, wouldn't that be a loss?

Only someone with absolute confidence in themselves would pay the 500 yuan.

Although Wu Cheng couldn't eat that much, he had a system. The space in the cat house was almost unlimited. He could simply exchange all the buns through the exchange system.

As for gold ingots, it's better if you have them, but it doesn't matter if you don't.

Therefore, Wu Cheng readily paid the money.

The person in charge was a little confused.

Then he cursed Wu Cheng in his heart, thinking, "Is this guy an idiot?"

In his opinion, Wu Cheng was indeed a fool.

How could a normal person possibly eat 500 yuan worth of steamed buns?

Don't be fooled by the dozen or so steamers of buns in front of each of those guys competing on stage. They're not worth 500 yuan. In fact, the organizers are using cheap cabbage-filled buns to save money. Five buns for ten yuan would be enough to stuff a strong man.

But Wu Cheng was full of confidence and even did a few stretching exercises to warm up.

"Please fill out this form, and you also need to think of a nickname, like the meat grinder on stage or the trash can, something that reflects your appetite."

Wu Cheng thought for a moment, then looked up how to write the characters for "Taotie" on his phone. He then carefully wrote his nickname, "Taotie Bro," on the form.

He is now very skillful, and even his handwriting has become incredibly beautiful.

Holding up the chart, the host announced in a mixed accent, "Now, I have some breaking news to share: a top-notch foodie from the community has joined the competition. His nickname is 'Foodie Bro.' Let's see just how much this 'Foodie Bro' can eat."

Wu Cheng inwardly scorned the host's shallow cultural foundation before going on stage.

The host continued, "This 'Eater Bro' doesn't look like someone who can eat a lot, but we also know that many competitive eaters are actually not fat."

"So, can we expect something from this expert from the common people, Brother Shishi?"

Wu Cheng really wanted to correct this illiterate man, but then he thought better of it. There are plenty of people who misread characters these days. All sorts of serious illiterate men appear on TV, some even becoming university presidents, celebrities, or even masters of Chinese studies.

If I really wanted to argue with them, I'd probably argue until I died and it wouldn't have any effect.

It's better to just relax and eat some steamed buns.

Wu Cheng was also hungry. Martial artists have big appetites. Wu Cheng is now considered a martial artist, and a top-level one at that. After eating five in one go, he couldn't eat anymore and drank some water to swallow.

After that, he started the exchange system.

After the exchange system was activated, Wu Cheng ate steamed buns much faster.

A steamer of buns was devoured in just one second.

The steamer basket of buns in front of him was piling up higher and higher.

He quickly caught up with the dog-headed guillotine, who was ranked third.

Now everyone's attention was focused on Wu Cheng.

"See that? This guy, Foodie Bro, has quite an appetite."

"Oh my god, if I had a boyfriend who was such a good-for-nothing, I probably couldn't even support him."

"I'm telling you, that's all you've got. Other girls let their boyfriends support them, but you want to support your boyfriend too."

People had all sorts of opinions, and some had even put up signs to support Wu Cheng. One person was waving the sign and shouting wildly, their enthusiasm was frightening.

The dog-headed guillotine, caught up by Wu Cheng, couldn't help but panic.

Even if he had lost, he could have easily secured third place.

The third-place winner will also receive a prize of 2,000 yuan, plus a quarter's supply of free steamed buns.

But now Wu Cheng has overtaken him.

This is not a good thing.

Dog Head Guillotine glared fiercely at Wu Cheng and made a throat-slitting gesture at him.

This is provocation.

Wu Cheng is not afraid of any provocation. He has a special way of eating steamed buns. Let alone a big eater, even if there is a real hippo or a real whale in front of him, Wu Cheng is not afraid at all.

So he slit his neck and muttered a word about rebounding.

While eating, Dog Head Guillotine thought about his level of skill before the competition.

At that time, Dog Head Cutter had been kicked out of his family for eating too much and was left to wander the streets, starving.

At this time, someone found him and gave him thirty family buckets of food, allowing him to have a full meal.

A single meal in need is a debt that can be repaid with a thousand pieces of gold.

Although Dog Head Guillotine wasn't a big shot, he was a grateful person.

That person told Doghead that if he won first place in this Golden Bun Contest, he could not only eat buns for free for a year, but also receive a generous bonus.

It was like a pie falling from the sky; Doghead was so happy he was almost dizzy, and he agreed without any hesitation.

When he first entered the competition, he played it safe and made sure he made it into the top three. Only when it was time to really unleash his full potential would he use his trump card.

Wu Cheng's arrival has disrupted this balance, and Dog Head Guillotine felt threatened, so he took a drastic step and loosened his belt.

Unfastening the belt reveals the guillotine's deadly weapon.

The fat on his waist gushed down, but this freed up a lot of space in his stomach, and he started eating voraciously again.

But Wu Cheng stopped at this moment.

Seeing a glimmer of hope, Dog Head Cutter grabbed two steamed buns and stuffed them into his mouth.

Seeing how hard the dog-headed chopper was working, the other two contestants weren't going to be outdone and started eating like crazy.

Everyone has once again left Wu Cheng behind.

The audience below had high expectations for Wu Cheng, thinking that this unassuming, skinny boy might be a dark horse, but in reality, he wasn't that dark.

He suddenly stopped eating, and I have no idea what he's thinking.

Does that mean he chickened out?

That's such a pity! This skinny kid really ate a lot, and he didn't get bloated at all. Look at the other contestants, their stomachs all look like they're about to explode.

Wu Cheng, however, paid no attention to the noise outside, because he had discovered something.

Jin Wanliang was actually stealing his own steamed buns.

These buns were supposed to be redeemed through the redemption system, but Jin Wanliang was too busy decorating the cat house to set a price.

Wu Cheng had no choice but to temporarily store them all in the cat house.

As he was collecting the food, he saw Jin Wanliang running to the side eating a steamed bun. Cats are afraid of being burned, and this steamed bun was still hot, so hot that Jin Wanliang's tongue was sticking out and he was breathing heavily.

Wu Cheng caught him red-handed, and he was furious.

The steamed bun hadn't even entered the redemption system yet, and Jin Wanliang had already stolen and eaten it. What does that mean? It means Jin Wanliang loves the steamed buns here. Based on my previous thinking, as long as the cat likes it, it's worth the money.

If Jin Wanliang likes something, how could it not be worth one or two gold ingots?

Therefore, Wu Cheng made up his mind to extort a fortune of ten thousand taels of gold this time.
