The Peerless Ring

Aromas wafted through the air, skewer after skewer of barbecue was completed and handed over to the customers, many of whom couldn't wait to dig in as soon as they received their orders, and every single one of them was full of praise.

The enticing smells and the compliments from the surrounding people helped Jaxon attract even more customers, so much so that he didn't stop from the beginning to the end, constantly busy with barbecuing.

Today's business could be said to be the best since Jaxon started barbecuing. There were always people waiting in front of his stall, which caught him off guard. Before twelve o'clock, he had sold out all of his stock.

"Sorry, everything's sold out. If you want some, you can come back tomorrow," Jaxon said to the people still waiting to buy barbecue in front of his stall.

"You've got to be kidding me. I've been waiting in line for ten minutes. Boss, just grill something for me," one customer pleaded.

"Yeah, the smell is driving me crazy. I've been holding back for so long. If I can't eat it today, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well tonight," another customer chimed in.

"Boss, I'm not saying this to be mean, but it's not even noon yet, and you're already out of food. You didn't prepare enough," a third customer commented.

"And there are not enough tables and stools either," someone else added.

Clearly, Jaxon's barbecue selling out left many people dissatisfied. Some had been waiting for a while without getting a taste, while others, having already enjoyed the food and found it delicious, wanted to buy more. However, in either case, they couldn't get any more now, so naturally, they were unhappy.

Another issue was that Jaxon's equipment was too simple. For those who ordered a little, it was fine to eat while standing. But for those who ordered a lot and wanted to sit down, there was nowhere to sit. If it weren't for the fact that Jaxon's barbecue was indeed better than that of other places, they might not have chosen to eat here at all. At this moment, their complaints were understandable.

"I'm really sorry. I truly have nothing left today. I'll definitely prepare more tomorrow," Jaxon apologized repeatedly. "As for the tables and chairs, I'll get more as well."

Seeing that Jaxon really had no more stock, the crowd reluctantly dispersed. Jaxon quickly packed up his things and headed home, not daring to stay any longer.

When Jaxon got back to his place, it was only twelve o'clock, much earlier than usual. His business had been quite slow before, but today was exceptionally busy. Jaxon naturally knew that this was all thanks to his suddenly improved cooking skills. Barbecuing was just a small part of cooking, but even this small part had undergone a qualitative change with the boost of his advanced cooking skills.

After putting everything away, Jaxon took out a skewer of chicken wings from the fridge and grilled them for himself to eat.

"Mmm, the taste really is much better than before. Compared to other barbecue places, it's a level or two higher. However, compared to Aunt Wang's cooking, there's still a significant gap," Jaxon evaluated his own cooking skills while eating, wanting to have a clear understanding of his current level.

Although it was only one or two levels higher than other barbecue shops, this gap was not easy to bridge, and it made a fundamental difference between Jaxon's barbecue and that of others. People could clearly tell which barbecue was better with just one taste.

This was also the reason why Jaxon's barbecue was so popular tonight.

However, Jaxon knew that his barbecue still had a lot of room for improvement. First of all, he only had advanced cooking skills, and the level of these skills could still be improved.

Moreover, compared to other chefs, it was much easier for him to improve. After all, he just needed to keep making food and gain experience points. For other chefs, it was not that easy to improve their skills. Talented chefs were, after all, in the minority.

In addition, ingredients were also an important factor. The reason why Aunt Wang's chicken was so fragrant was not only because she was a master chef but also because the chickens she raised had much better meat quality than those in reality. As a result, the taste was naturally better.

Jaxon now had the back mountain of the beginner's village, where he could grow vegetables and fruits, as well as raise chickens and ducks. In the future, just the ingredients alone would be much better than those of other barbecue shops in reality. It would be impossible for others to catch up.

"I've made it, I've made it," Jaxon counted his money with shining eyes, daydreaming about his future.

Today alone, he had made four thousand yuan. Compared to the daily turnover of large barbecue shops, this amount might not seem like much, not to mention compared to big restaurants. However, compared to Jaxon's usual lukewarm business, today could be considered a big harvest. This was still because he hadn't prepared enough ingredients. If he had prepared more, this number would have increased significantly.

"Today should be considered the first pot of gold I've obtained by using what I got from the game world," Jaxon thought to himself.

Although he had imagined this kind of scene when he first realized that he could bring things from the game world back to reality, he didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Moreover, when it really came true, there was still a sense of surprise. Cooking was just one of the abilities he had obtained from the game world and not even a particularly outstanding part. He believed that it wouldn't take long before he could use what he had obtained from the game world to gain even greater benefits in reality.

After all, he had only been in the game world for a few days, and he was still in the beginner's village. He hadn't fully understood the game world yet. He believed that as he became more familiar with the game world, he would bring even greater changes to his real life.

After calming down his excited emotions, Jaxon took a quick wash and then returned to his room. Subsequently, through that special ring, he was transported back to the game world.

The surroundings changed in an instant. Just a moment ago, Jaxon was in his room, but now he was back in the dimly lit mine cave.

Sun the blacksmith's task was still not completed, so Jaxon had to continue mining. The quiet mine cave was filled with the sounds of mining, echoing back and forth.

However, this atmosphere did not last long. Not long after Jaxon was teleported over, a familiar figure appeared in his line of sight once again.

It was another Golden Mole Rat!

However, when Jaxon saw this Golden Mole Rat, his eyelids couldn't help but twitch a few times. Because this Golden Mole Rat was much larger than the ones he had seen before. It was over half a meter tall when lying on the ground, and if it stood up, it would probably be more than a meter tall.

This was no longer a rat; it was more like a bear!
