"Although five thousand servings of chicken blood soup were sold today, only three thousand people entered the store. That is to say, more than a thousand people ate the chicken blood soup without coming to the store!"
The spirit said slowly. Gu Zheng was stunned. The business was so good every day that he didn't know how many people entered the store. However, since the spirit said that more than three thousand people entered the store, it must not be bad. The spirit's calculation ability was definitely not worse than a computer.
"What's the problem?"
Gu Zheng frowned. The number of people who entered the store was less than five thousand because some people packed and took away. Some people bought several servings at a time, and they were all carrying for others. Today, there were even people in the store who suggested that they could open an online delivery service to facilitate their shopping.
"Of course there's a problem. To complete the test, you have to eat it in the store. Otherwise, how do I know who is qualified to take the test has eaten the chicken blood soup?"
The spirit said as if it was a matter of fact. Gu Zheng's eyes widened.
"You mean, only those who eat it in the store can be counted. Otherwise, it won't be counted?" Gu Zheng asked anxiously.
"Of course. I can only sense those who are qualified to take the test when they enter the store. I can sense that they have eaten the chicken blood soup. Only then will the test be counted. Otherwise, it won't be counted!" The spirit replied.
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Gu Zheng was in a daze. Without the spirit's verification, even if those who were qualified to take the test ate the chicken blood soup, it wouldn't be counted. In the past few days, many people packed and took away many servings. Many people didn't come to the store, but ate the chicken blood soup.
In this way, it was unknown how many people who were qualified to take the test were not counted. If they failed the test because of this, Gu Zheng would suffer a great loss.
"You didn't ask!"
The spirit said lightly. Gu Zheng choked. Indeed, he didn't ask. If the spirit didn't take the initiative to mention it today, Gu Zheng wouldn't have known that there was such a situation.
It was no wonder that the number of people who completed the test had been decreasing these few days. On the first day, it was 2,100. On the second day, it was 1,800. Today, it was only a little over 1,000. Gu Zheng thought that it was a normal decrease. He didn't think that there was such a reason.
Regardless of whether he brought it along or took it home to eat, it would not be counted by the Artifact Spirit. This meant that although he had sold 5,000 servings, only about 3,000 servings were really effective.
Among the three thousand people, there were more than a thousand people who were qualified to take the test. In fact, the ratio was not low. If all five thousand people were here, Gu Zheng could at least complete the test for more than one thousand and six hundred people in a day.
Now, there were only slightly more than a thousand, which meant that more than five hundred had been lost. And this was only for today. If one were to count the past few days, they would have missed even more, at least a thousand.
Not to mention more than a thousand people, if even one person was missing by the end of the test, it would be considered a failure.
Gu Zheng didn't have time to settle the score with the Artifact Spirit. He hurriedly called Changfeng and asked Changfeng to prepare to change the sales model tomorrow. No takeout, no takeout, all the chicken blood soup must be eaten in the restaurant.
If you want to take it away, you have to bring your own lunch box and have a bite in the restaurant before you leave.
Changfeng was very puzzled by Gu Zheng's request, but he didn't ask in detail and still did as he was told. He asked the store manager to work overtime to make a sign and put it up early the next morning.
Early the next morning, people who came to the restaurant early found that there were eye-catching signs around the restaurant.
[This restaurant's chicken blood soup is not for takeout. No takeout. Please forgive us!]
"No takeout?"
"Why? It's so expensive and you don't allow takeout?"
"It doesn't matter. I don't plan to take it out anyway!"
The people who came in before the opening were discussing. A few people were dissatisfied and went to ask the waiter and the store manager. Most people didn't care.
Most of the people who came early in the morning wanted to eat in the restaurant and leave as early as possible. This chicken blood soup was really delicious, and some of the old customers found that after eating the chicken blood soup, they were very energetic all day.
This surprised some of the old customers. Usually, they were a little sleepy in the afternoon, but after eating the chicken blood soup for a few days, they were very energetic and completed more work than before.
This surprised them. At the same time, they agreed with the introduction of the chicken blood soup that it had the effect of food therapy.
"No takeout, no takeout. Brother Wu, what about Zhu Zi and the others?"
Three more people came in the restaurant. Walking in front was Brother Wu, who was the first to order the chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng on the first day of the monthly trial. Yesterday, their company gave them a bonus. They all had a few thousand yuan. They discussed that today they would eat the chicken blood soup, which was 888 yuan, to reward themselves.
The other two people were not willing to spend so much money. They asked them to pack two portions of 88 yuan and take them back after eating.
88 yuan of chicken blood soup was not cheap for them.
"Let's order first. We'll ask later!"
Brother Wu thought for a while and then shook his head. His biggest purpose here was to taste the most delicious chicken blood soup. It was not too late to ask why the restaurant had such a rule later. If it didn't work, he would let them eat by themselves.
They came at the right time. There were only three portions of the 888 yuan chicken blood soup left.
This was because Changfeng had something to do today and couldn't come. Otherwise, there would only be one portion left. Changfeng didn't come. The ten portions made by Gu Zheng were all sold out. They were all booked early.
After learning that his chicken blood soup had been booked, Gu Zheng shook his head secretly.
He arrived at the restaurant early this morning. From today onwards, no takeout or takeout was allowed. This was a rigid rule that must be strictly followed. Otherwise, it would have a great impact on his test. The purpose of opening this restaurant was to complete the test. Gu Zheng would never allow anything to affect the test.
"It seems that you were right to limit the purchase last time!"
Gu Zheng sighed in his heart as he prepared the chicken blood soup. He was talking to the Tool Spirit. When the chicken blood soup was booked, Gu Zheng specially asked the Tool Spirit how many of the people who ordered his 888 yuan chicken blood soup were new customers.
The final answer made Gu Zheng very disappointed. Of the people who ordered the chicken blood soup made by him today, only three were new customers. The remaining seven were all old customers.
It was only the sixth day of opening, and the proportion of new customers had dropped to 30%. He suspected that there would be no new customers in the future.
Last time, in order to let Gu Zheng complete the test, the Artifact Spirit had set many restrictions on the fried eggs. One of them was a restriction that many customers were very dissatisfied with. That was the purchase limit. Moreover, it was a restriction that each person could only purchase once.
Now that he thought about it, if it wasn't for the Tool Spirit's restriction, it would have been impossible to complete the fried egg test. Without the purchase limit, there wouldn't be so many people who ate his fried eggs, and his reputation wouldn't have spread.
"Of course, this Tool Spirit has never missed a chance. In fact, you can also limit the purchase this time. Each person can only buy once. I can help you check. I believe that you can complete the test quickly this way!" The Tool Spirit said proudly.
"I can't limit the purchase like last time!"
Gu Zheng thought for a while and quickly shook his head. The purchase limit could help him complete the test faster, but the impact and trouble brought by the purchase limit were very difficult to solve. Back then, he only sold the fried eggs in the small restaurant. There weren't many that could be sold every day. At most, there were only 200 portions a day.
Now, the restaurant was so big that it could sell 5,000 portions a day. If he limited the purchase here, he would be scolded to death. Gu Zheng couldn't explain it.
