He was the first person to know the therapeutic effect of the chicken blood soup and the benefits it brought him.
In fact, many people who came to drink the chicken blood soup, especially those who drank the chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng, would more or less improve their health. Some people felt it but didn't think too much about it. Some people thought about it but didn't care.
He was the first person to express his gratitude publicly.
Gu Zheng walked out of the kitchen. There were still many onlookers outside. The store manager ran over to the man's family to hang the banner. The man knew that Gu Zheng was the one who made the chicken blood soup, so he hurriedly went forward to thank him.
What he said was the truth. His stomach disease had tortured him for more than 20 years. Other than him, no one could understand his pain.
He had been to too many hospitals, seen too many doctors, and taken too many medicines. However, his stomach disease had always been there and it had never been cured.
It was fine if it was just pain. His stomach ulcers were getting worse and worse. If it was not treated well, his stomach might perforate or develop to an even worse degree.
Under such circumstances, he was very worried and left a psychological problem.
And this psychological problem finally disappeared yesterday. He didn't expect that what the hospital doctors couldn't do was done by a dietary therapy. He also didn't expect that just smelling the fragrance and tasting the food he liked would bring him such a big surprise.
"Thank you. Thank you so much!"
After saying that, he thanked again. Gu Zheng smiled and shook his head. He added five high-grade ingredients to the chicken blood soup. Although the soup was diluted, the therapeutic effect of the dietary therapy was still there.
However, the effect was not as good as when he treated Mr. Liang. The diluted soup had to be eaten a few more times for the effect to be effective.
This person was cured of a gastric disease, and it was a stubborn one. He must have eaten a lot. After eating so much, he could be considered a loyal customer. Gu Zheng was very happy to be able to cure such a loyal customer.
After hanging the banner, the store manager's face was full of joy.
Firecrackers were not allowed in the city. The sound from before was actually played by the tape recorder. The firecrackers were just a formality. Many other customers were discussing it. Some believed it and some doubted it.
But no matter what their attitude was, they all knew about this matter.
The store manager then looked for media friends. Soon, someone spread the news. People reposted it on forums, Weibo, and WeChat Moments. It was rare that diet therapy could have such a good effect.
Some people with stomach problems even tried to find a way to ask this person how he was cured.
Regardless of whether he believed it or not, Gu Zheng's business did improve after this incident. As soon as the business improved, the number of people taking the test slowed down. There were only 800 people left, so the speed at which they completed the test became even slower.
Five days later, the store finally sold out all five thousand bowls of chicken blood soup. This was the first time they had sold out all the chicken blood soup after the attack on Lao Tang.
Although the employees in the shop were very tired, they were all happy. The attack did not break them down. It was not easy for them to recover to this extent without any response.
The business of Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup was good again. Every day, there was a queue. Gu Zheng sighed in his heart.
There was only half a month left for the test, but there were still more than 400 people who had not come to eat his chicken blood soup. Now, the number of people taking the test was decreasing rapidly. Yesterday, there were only a few dozen people.
According to this speed, there was still a high chance of completing the test, but there was also a high chance of failure.
"Device Spirit, is there any good way to speed up the test?"
Gu Zheng asked casually after closing the store and entering the Chaotic Space.
He now had half an hour in the Chaotic Space every day. Normally, after such a long time, his Gokusen Immortal Art should have been upgraded. He did not know if it was because of the food cultivation last time, but he could feel that his strength had increased. However, Gokusen Immortal Art had been stagnant.
Every day in the Chaotic Space, Gu Zheng did not need to cultivate. He only needed to stand. But now, he had to make chicken blood soup to sell. Every day after entering the Chaotic Space, he could not stay idle. Basically, he had to cook the immortal chicken.
"Of course there is a good way!"
The Device Spirit answered quickly. Gu Zheng's spirit was slightly lifted. He had just asked casually. He did not expect the Device Spirit to really have a way.
"Quick, tell me. How do we do it?"
After dealing with the Artifact Spirit for so long, Gu Zheng had a certain understanding of it. Although the Artifact Spirit was usually unreliable, the methods it spoke of were very effective. The several suggestions it had given before had also been very effective.
"Full purchase restriction!"
The Device Spirit's words made Gu Zheng's face stiffen. He thought the Device Spirit really had a good idea. He did not expect it to be this again. It was not that he had not thought of a full purchase restriction, but it was simply unrealistic. This was not a small store, but a big store. Every day, there would be four to five thousand customers.
If so many people were to carry out a full purchase restriction, they would block the door and it would be impossible to do business.
Previously, when there were few customers in Shu Yu's store, the reaction was so big. Gu Zheng found it hard to imagine what kind of result it would bring if he carried out a full purchase restriction here.
"Rotten idea!"
Gu Zheng sighed. It was almost impossible to carry out a full purchase restriction. In fact, if he could pass the test, he would not care even if he had to close down the store. However, a full purchase restriction was simply impossible to carry out. After the restriction, they would not be able to sell a single serving. Those troublemakers would not let them have any peace.
"If you don't listen to me, how do you know it is a rotten idea?"
The Device Spirit said unconvinced. It then continued, "These days, I have been studying your so-called marketing. I find it very interesting. Although there is marketing in the Untainted Land, it is far inferior to yours. Your marketing methods are really varied and nothing is too strange. The full purchase restriction I am thinking of is a kind of marketing."
"We can create a gimmick in advance. I have already thought of this gimmick. It's very simple. Let a person write a letter to you, saying that he wants to drink the Chicken Blood Soup very much. However, every time there are a lot of customers, he did not get to drink it. He is very disappointed. This person better be a child!"
"After his letter comes out, let some of your so-called Five Hairs Gang follow the post and spread the message that those who do not have time to line up but are eager to drink the Chicken Blood Soup are not free. At this time, you can stand out and say that for their sake, you can carry out a full purchase restriction every day. It does not have to be for the whole day, just half a day or less. Today is the morning, tomorrow is the afternoon, and the day after tomorrow is the evening. During the limited purchase period, those who have drunk the Chicken Blood Soup cannot buy it again. If they want to eat it, they can come again after the limited purchase period!"
"In this way, many people who have not eaten the Chicken Blood Soup will have time. Your customers will also not object too much. They can come again after the limited purchase period!"
The more the Artifact Spirit spoke, the brighter Gu Zheng's eyes became. This little guy's idea was really good. However, where did the Artifact Spirit learn all this from? He had not read any books about marketing these days. How did it know so much? It even knew about creating a gimmick and the Five Hairs Gang?
If there was a chance in the future, he must interrogate it properly.
The Artifact Spirit's suggestion was really good. In fact, when it said it, Gu Zheng was already tempted.
It was just that Gu Zheng did not know who to look for to write the letter. He could not find someone he did not trust, but there was no one he could trust around him. It was very distressing.
"This is your problem. You solve it yourself!"
When he asked the Artifact Spirit again, it gave Gu Zheng such an answer. The Artifact Spirit only gave suggestions. As for how to implement it, it was entirely up to Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng didn't get angry. This was how it should be. Digging without burying was the character of an Artifact Spirit. If it really helped Gu Zheng with everything, Gu Zheng would suspect that this Artifact Spirit had changed into another person.
Well, since the Artifact Spirit did not help, Gu Zheng had to rely on himself. However, the half-day purchase limit idea was really good.
There were only about 400 people who had not completed the test. It was not a problem to limit the purchase for half a day or less. As long as they were given time and opportunity to come to the store, it would be fine.
Early the next morning, Gu Zheng arrived at the store.
Today, Gu Zheng was the first person to come. After thinking for a long time last night, Gu Zheng could not find a suitable person. It was also not suitable for him to find a planning company to do the Five Hairs Gang. In the end, he simply passed the problem to Changfeng.
He did not explain to Changfeng. He only asked him to do as he was told.
Gu Zheng was most satisfied with Changfeng as a partner. No matter what Gu Zheng did, he never objected. If he explained, he would listen. If he did not explain, he would do it. That was, he supported everything that Gu Zheng did.
It was indeed a blessing to have such a partner.
After staying in the kitchen for a while, the number of customers outside gradually increased. A few days after the opening, Gu Zheng accepted many customers' suggestions and moved the store's opening hours from 8: 00 to 7: 30. This way, many people could eat the chicken blood soup for breakfast.
Even though it was moved to 7: 30, there were still many people who came to line up in advance.
"I really have something urgent. Please, help me. Just this once, okay?"
When it was almost 7: 30, there was a sudden shout outside. Gu Zheng and the others heard it in the kitchen. Gao Changhe and the others were doing their own things. None of them paid attention to the situation outside.
They were only chefs, not bosses. Their job was in the kitchen. They just needed to do everything well in the kitchen.
All the employees in the store had finished their probationary period in advance. After the probationary period, everyone's salary had increased. Gao Changhe was now the one with the highest salary in the store. His monthly salary was 30,000 yuan, not including various bonuses and benefits.
The manager's salary was 28,000 yuan. The reason why it was lower was that Gao Changhe had exchanged his life for it last time. After Changfeng learned the details, he increased the salary. Although the manager's performance was worthy of recognition, he was not as hardworking as Gao Changhe and did not do as well as Gao Changhe.
Because of this, Gao Changhe's salary as the head chef was higher than the manager.
The store manager didn't have any objections. In fact, he was already very satisfied with the current situation. He had seen Gao Changhe's performance that day, and he wasn't jealous at all that Gao Changhe was treated better than him.
In his opinion, that was what Gao Changhe deserved.
Gu Zheng walked out of the kitchen. The manager was comforting someone. It was a man in his thirties. He was begging with a red face. He looked a little anxious. "I didn't come early.
"It's not that I didn't come early, but something happened on the way. My mother has been drinking chicken blood soup for five days, and her body is improving very well. I talked to Boss Yan, and he said that the effect of chicken blood soup would be better if she drank it continuously, at least for seven consecutive days. My mother is two days away from being able to drink chicken blood soup for seven consecutive days. If there is a gap in between, she will have to drink a few more bowls. Our family's financial ability is limited, so can you give me a portion today?
Please! "The man said quickly. Gu Zheng came out late. Seeing him come out, the manager hurriedly went forward to explain.
Yesterday's person was not the only one who felt the benefits of the chicken blood soup. Yesterday's person was surnamed Yan. He was the first person to express his gratitude publicly.
This man also felt it, but it was not from him. It was from his mother.
He was a filial son. After his mother divorced, she raised him alone. Now that he was married and had children, he was very good to his mother. His mother had suffered from headaches and insomnia because of exhaustion.
When she had a bad headache, she wanted to bang her head against the wall. Insomnia was even more painful.
His mother slept less than an hour a day on average. Severe insomnia made her mental state very bad. He was a filial son. He saw all of this, but there was nothing he could do.
They had also seen many doctors, but there was no improvement.
The man smelled the fragrance many times. In the end, he gritted his teeth and bought a bowl of chicken blood soup for his mother. It was 88 yuan.
His mother's mental state was poor. She did not have a good appetite. She was very thin. He thought that his mother would like the chicken blood soup since it was so fragrant. At that time, the restaurant did not limit takeout. He bought it for his mother to drink. He did not expect his mother to finish it in one go.
His mother had not eaten like this for a long time.
Later, the restaurant limited takeout. When he had time, he would bring his mother. When he did not have time, he would bring a lunch box for takeout. The restaurant limited takeout, but they did not limit the takeout. He took advantage of this and continued to bring his mother chicken blood soup.
Not long after, his mother's face became rosy and her complexion became better. Although she still suffered from headaches and insomnia, she was better than before. She could sleep more at night.
This discovery made him very happy. Even if he did not earn much, he would try his best to bring his mother to drink chicken blood soup.
Because he went to the restaurant many times, he met some people in the restaurant. Most of them felt that their health had improved. Among them was Boss Yan, who was the person who came to deliver the silk banner yesterday.
According to them, the best therapeutic effect of chicken blood soup was the 888 yuan one. Although it was expensive, the effect was very obvious.
Boss Yan had tested it himself. The 888 yuan chicken blood soup had to be drunk continuously without stopping for at least seven days. The effect would be greatly reduced if she stopped drinking it. He had been hesitant because of financial problems. No one bought it for his mother. At the same time, it was difficult to buy the 888 yuan chicken blood soup every day.
After the incident of the soup attack, the 888 yuan chicken blood soup became easier to buy. Boss Yan encouraged him that if he really wanted his mother to get better, he should not be afraid of spending money. He should buy the expensive soup and drink it continuously for a week or even ten days.
At that time, Boss Yan had not gone for the final check-up, but he could feel that his body was basically better.
The 888 yuan chicken blood soup was not so tight. It was sold out early every day. With Boss Yan and other people as examples, he gritted his teeth and finally began to give his mother the chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng. The effect of the chicken blood soup was very obvious. After drinking it for only five days, his mother's headaches had decreased a lot. She even slept for four hours last night. Today, she was very energetic.
He was very happy that his mother's health had improved. He came to buy it early in the morning, but he did not expect to have a small car accident on the way, which delayed his time. After he came here, Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup was sold out.
He was not as rich as Boss Yan. He only had a salary of about 5,000 yuan a month. He had to support his family and buy chicken blood soup for his mother. He was under a lot of pressure. Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup did not drink continuously. If he stopped drinking it, the effect would be affected. Therefore, he begged here, hoping that someone would give him a portion.
After listening to his description, the store manager was very touched, but also very troubled.
Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup had always been made at 7: 30 am and served at 8: 00 am. It could be bought in advance, but it was basically delivered at the same time. In the past, Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup would be pre-ordered as soon as the store opened. During these bad days, Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup was also affected, but it could still be sold out every day.
Basically, it was sold out early. The chicken blood soup he made was really delicious.
It was the same this morning. After opening the store at 7: 30 am, Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup was all pre-ordered within a few minutes. This person usually came very early, but something happened in the morning. A car knocked them down. He was riding a tricycle with his old mother. He was fine, but he was worried that his mother was in trouble.
After making sure that his mother was fine, he came again, but he was a little late. The last bowl of Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup had been pre-ordered.
His mother had been drinking it for five days in a row, and her body had improved a lot. His original plan was to drink it for seven days in a row. If seven days were not enough, he would drink it for ten days. No matter if it could cure his mother's illness or not, he could only drink it for ten days at most. After ten days, he would stop because he had no money.
However, according to Boss Yan's experience from his own experiments, if one could drink it for ten days in a row, most of the minor problems could be cured. It was just that it must be done continuously. If there was a break in the middle, it would be equivalent to starting all over again.
He did not have the money, nor the energy, to start all over again.
"Boss!"
The store manager was in a dilemma. He just happened to see Gu Zheng standing at the side and hurriedly called out.
From the bottom of his heart, he was willing to give this filial son a bowl of chicken blood soup. However, other people who had bought Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup were not willing to give it away. Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup was the most popular. Many people came early just to buy a bowl.
Although the price was expensive, because the taste was specially prepared, customers did not have any complaints.
All the people who had eaten Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup agreed that it was the most delicious food they had ever eaten. Since it was the most delicious, the price was nothing. You get what you pay for. The gourmet industry was also the same. You get what you pay for.
Because of this, no one was willing to give up delicious food. What's more, this delicious food also had the effect of diet therapy.
"Since it's sold out, let's call it a day!"
Gu Zheng's words made the store manager feel a wave of disappointment. It was fine if the soup was sold out, but this meant that if no one gave up their portion of soup, this filial son's mother would not be able to drink Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup today.
If she couldn't drink it, it meant that if she wanted to have a better effect of diet therapy, she had to start all over again. If she was from a rich family, it would not matter. However, this filial son's family was obviously ordinary. Wasting five days was a lot of pressure for him.
"Boss, I beg you!"
The filial son wanted to kneel down fiercely. His pressure was really great. His wife was extremely opposed to giving his mother chicken blood soup to treat headaches and insomnia. Not to mention, it also cost so much money.
From beginning to end, he had spent nearly ten thousand yuan to buy chicken blood soup for his mother. He really had no money on hand.
The filial son did not kneel down. His body just wanted to bend down, but he was stopped by Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng's speed was much faster than his. Here was the store. How could he really make him kneel down?
"Don't worry. There will be a way. Go back first!"
Gu Zheng said again. At the same time, he frowned. He did not know where this man was found by Changfeng. His acting was really good. He almost believed it.
Yesterday, Gu Zheng called Changfeng and told him his idea. He said that writing a letter was not good. He would think of a better way to implement it. Gu Zheng did not care. This filial son came early in the morning. Now it seemed that Changfeng's filial son was indeed better than writing a letter directly.
Although the filial son bought his chicken blood soup, at the same time, it also represented the thoughts of many people. Many people wanted to eat it, but there was no time and no way to line up. Using this matter as a catalyst, his half-day comprehensive purchase limit plan could be implemented.
"Boss, I beg you. I only beg you to let my mother continue to drink the chicken blood soup today!"
The man shouted again in grief and indignation. The people around him all had sympathetic looks on their faces. Unfortunately, the person who ordered the Gu Zheng Chicken Blood Soup didn't say anything. Some of them also wanted the medicinal effect of the food, while others were just unwilling to part with it.
Sympathy was sympathy, but they were unwilling to give up such a good thing.
"Come again after work tonight!"
Gu Zheng frowned. The acting was very good, but a little too much. He did not like to be entangled. After a long time, others would think that he was too ruthless.
Asking him to come again after work was to let Changfeng deal with this person and tell him that the acting at present was enough.
"Come again after work tonight!"
The man's eyes suddenly brightened as if he thought of something. He nodded hurriedly. "Thank you, thank you, boss!"
With Gu Zheng's words, he quickly left. The store manager's face was filled with gratification. At the same time, he looked at Gu Zheng with admiration. The things that had been sold definitely couldn't be bought back. Gu Zheng only made ten servings a day. There was no way for him to make more. If he really did that, it would be unfair to the other customers.
He originally thought that Gu Zheng should make an exception and make one more time.
However, according to his experience, this was very difficult. Gu Zheng's principles were very strong. It was almost impossible for him to break the rules he set.
At that time, he was still regretting for his filial son. He was afraid that his mother would not be able to drink the chicken blood soup today.
Unexpectedly, Gu Zheng actually asked him to come again after work. After work, it was not business hours. No matter how much Gu Zheng did, he did not violate the rules. He also helped this filial son. It was indeed a very good method.
This showed that Gu Zheng recognized this filial son and used a compromise.
He did not know that Gu Zheng did not have such thoughts. He just wanted to send this person away first.
The filial son left, and the store returned to peace. Today's store was no different from yesterday. There was only one more banner, and it was hanging there alone.
However, the store manager believed that the more people who experienced the benefits in the future, the more banners they would have.
At eight o 'clock in the evening, all five thousand servings of chicken blood soup were sold out. The time of selling out began to come forward. This was a good sign. Everyone believed that they would soon return to the popular business of selling out at four o' clock in the afternoon.
"Gu Zheng, I have arranged it. There will be a protest tomorrow. A group of people will protest, and they will bring a lot of tools. The momentum will be built directly!"
Gu Zheng was preparing to convene a meeting to set the rules of the half-day purchase limit when he suddenly received a call from Changfeng.
"Protest? What protest?" Gu Zheng was at a loss.
"I have thought about what you said yesterday. The momentum must be made bigger. I will arrange one or two hundred people. Don't worry. The appearance of these people will not arouse suspicion!"
Changfeng said quickly. Gu Zheng was stunned and asked anxiously, "You mean, you haven't done what I told you yesterday?"
"No, I have thought about it all day. This method is not bad, right?"
Changfeng answered quickly. Gu Zheng was stunned. Changfeng did not do it. That means the filial son this morning was not arranged by him. If it was not arranged by him, then it was true?
The filial son's matter was actually true. Gu Zheng had always thought that it was an actor arranged by Changfeng. Moreover, it was a professional actor.
He had always thought that the filial son was an actor, so he was not touched.
However, he did not expect that it was not an actor arranged by Changfeng, but a real matter. It could only be said that it was too coincidental. When Gu Zheng was looking for Changfeng to do this, he appeared and caused such a misunderstanding.
No wonder he worked so hard and kept pleading. He was not acting at all.
"Boss, everyone is here. Shall we start the meeting?"
The store manager came in. Gu Zheng hurriedly said to Changfeng. Changfeng did not need to prepare. With this filial son, there was already a reason. There was no need to protest.
Moreover, the meeting was to inform about the comprehensive purchase restriction. The purchase restriction would start tomorrow. The person that Changfeng arranged was indeed not needed.
"Is that person here?"
Gu Zheng asked first. The store manager was stunned at first. He immediately nodded and said, "Yes, he just arrived. I told him that we were going to have a meeting and asked him to wait for a while!"
"Postpone the meeting. You let him wait first!"
Gu Zheng turned and walked to the kitchen. This was a real filial son. Filial people's character would not be too bad. Gu Zheng treated him as an actor again. He felt a little guilty in his heart, so he simply helped this filial son to fulfill his wish.
Fortunately, he did not ask him to leave directly during the day. He asked him to come again at night. That would make him too sad.
He turned on the fire and boiled the soup.
The fragrance of the chicken blood soup made by Gu Zheng himself spread out again.
The fragrance was still so strong, but the people around had been used to it. They all knew the source of the fragrance. Many people had specially come here to taste the chicken blood soup.
It could also be said that without the fragrance made by Gu Zheng, the chicken blood soup would not have such a good business in the beginning.
Such a price was enough to scare away many people.
Many people nearby still walked out of the door in confusion. Usually, the fragrance was in the morning. How could it be in the evening? This had never happened before.
These people were just confused and did not look for it. After knowing the source of the fragrance, many people also calmed down a lot. They were most afraid of the situation when they did not know anything. Curiosity made some people want to bang their heads against the wall.
Outside, the filial son held his old mother's hand excitedly.
Gu Zheng's chicken blood soup was soon ready. A big bowl was brought out. The amount was much more than what they usually bought. Not only did his mother have it, but Gu Zheng also scooped out a portion for the filial son to eat.
This was also considered as compensation for his misunderstanding.
The filial son kept thanking him, but Gu Zheng did not care. He asked the store manager to call for a meeting. In front of everyone, he announced that the new rules would be implemented tomorrow.
Gu Zheng said that today's filial son incident had given him a lot of thoughts. It also exposed many problems in their store. Their business was good, but there were still many people who could not eat their chicken blood soup. These people were not poor, and it was not that they did not know this place. It was just that they did not have the time.
The filial son was not a new customer, but he also missed the best chicken blood soup because of the lack of time. He could only go and beg. However, all the people who bought the chicken blood soup at a high price were not willing to help him. This was already very clear about the problem.
From the filial son incident, Gu Zheng remembered the discussions of the customers a few days ago. Many new customers who came to drink the chicken blood soup said that it was not that they had never been here before. However, every time there were a lot of people who came, and they did not have the time to wait, so they had no choice but to leave.
Gu Zheng's wish was to let more people eat their chicken blood soup. Therefore, in the future, he would only sell to new customers a part of the time every day.
Tomorrow was the first day of implementation of this rule. Therefore, the time was arranged after 7: 00 pm, which was the two hours between 7: 00 pm and 9: 00 pm.
For tomorrow's limited purchase, Gu Zheng only prepared 500 servings of chicken blood soup. After the 500 servings were prepared, as long as 4,500 servings were sold before 7: 00 pm, they would not be sold to the outside world. There would be enough chicken blood soup to be sold in the evening.
The first day was set in the evening, so that the people who went there during the day could be mentally prepared.
Tomorrow was in the evening, and the day after tomorrow was in the afternoon. The three hours from 4: 00 pm to 7: 00 pm were only sold to new customers. The day after tomorrow was from 1: 00 pm to 4: 00 pm, and so on.
The limited purchase policy would be officially announced to all customers tomorrow.
When Gu Zheng said that, the store manager opened his mouth wide. He thought that Gu Zheng wanted them to stay for something. He did not expect that it was such a bomb. Limited purchase. Fast food limited purchase. It was unheard of.
"Boss, how do we know who has eaten before and who has not?"
The store manager braced himself and asked. He now knew the situation in the restaurant. The other boss was fully supportive of this. As long as Gu Zheng said something, even if it was to sell the restaurant, the other boss would support it.
Therefore, the store manager did not even think about objecting. He could only carry out Gu Zheng's request.
"You don't have to worry about this. I will personally check outside!"
When the new rule was announced, everyone knew how to explain it to the customers.
The store manager will go and print a notice of the new rule. He will print a big poster and paste it in a conspicuous place. The next day, he will explain it to the customers continuously.
This rule was not only for one day. From tomorrow onwards, it would be a trial run for a week.
First, the limited purchase period was also Gu Zheng's consideration. He wanted to see if this rule was really effective. If there was no special effect, he would still have time to make other changes.
The next morning, the new rule was posted. Some customers who came early saw it and were very curious.
During the day, many people were discussing the new rule. Some people posted the new rule on the Internet, which attracted a lot of discussion.
In order to let some new customers have time to eat their food, a fast food restaurant opened its time to new customers. There were different opinions about this. Some people praised it, some opposed it, and some even said that it was just a show.
Gu Zheng did not have any reaction to this. The more people discussing it outside, the better. In this way, more people would know that he opened his time to new customers. Those who sincerely prayed and wanted to eat but did not have time would have a chance.
At 7 pm, the limited purchase period began. Gu Zheng walked out on time and stood directly at the door.
Many people who had eaten before and deliberately pretended to be new customers were seen through by the device spirit. They were politely stopped outside. Some people smiled and left. Some people who did not understand walked away while cursing.
From 7 pm to 9 pm, the store only sold 151 servings of chicken blood soup in two hours. The 500 servings prepared were not sold at all. The business dropped a lot.
Gu Zheng was pleasantly surprised by the drop in business. Out of the 151 people, 60 of them were qualified to take the test. The remaining 400 or so people who hadn't passed the test had dropped to 300 or so.
The device spirit's suggestion was very good. There were indeed many people who wanted to come but did not have time at all. If it continued during the day, the number of people taking the test would continue to drop.
If it was effective, Gu Zheng would continue. At 4 pm the next day, the limited purchase period began again.
More people knew about the limited purchase period in the afternoon. Some people were curious and came to try it.
They wanted to know how the store knew whether people had bought chicken blood soup or not. Could it be that they had some facial recognition system that recorded the people who had bought chicken blood soup?
But even so, it was impossible to be 100% sure.
There were many curious people. Because it was in the afternoon, at least a hundred people came to try it. They were all picked out by the device spirit without exception. And those who had not come could really buy chicken blood soup.
Someone brought a friend who had not come to try the chicken blood soup. He was stopped, but his friend went in. He was very surprised.
In the three hours in the afternoon, a total of 260 servings of chicken blood soup were sold. Among them, 70 people were qualified to take the test. The number of people taking the test was only 293.
The limited purchase period was still in effect.
On the third day, the limited purchase period was from 1 pm to 4 pm. 580 servings were sold. It was mainly because of the lunch period from 1 pm to 2 pm. 580 servings were sold. The number of people who completed the test was 101. 192 people were left.
On the fourth day, the limited purchase period was from 10 pm to 1 pm. 700 servings were sold. 93 people completed the test. 99 people were left.
For three consecutive days, although the number of people taking the test fluctuated, it was not small. The device spirit's limited purchase period was a great help to the test. This kind of restriction was only for a period of time, not for a wide range of restrictions. In addition, Gu Zheng's reason was very high, so many customers could accept and understand.
Although there were many customers who had objections, in general, it was okay. There were no troublemakers.
99 people. In three days, the number of people remaining in the test was reduced to ten digits. Gu Zheng was more confident in completing the test.
On the fourth day, the limited purchase period was from 7: 30 am to 10 pm. Because the arrangements were made a few days in advance and everyone was informed, many people who knew about the limited purchase period did not go in the morning. Even so, more than 800 servings of chicken blood soup were sold in the morning. The number of people who completed the test that day was 73.
In this way, the number of people who did not complete the test was only 26.
There were still 12 days left. Gu Zheng was completely confident that he could complete the test this time.
On the fifth day, the limited purchase period continued. It was back to night time. At night, more servings were sold. However, only six people were qualified to take the test. The number of people who took the test was only 20.
During the daytime, the number of people taking the test had stopped increasing. It only appeared when the limited purchase period was over.
The test continued. On the tenth day, another seven people completed the test. There were 13 people left.
On the ninth day, the number of people who completed the test increased by five. There were only eight people left. This time, the test was completely completed. Eight days, eight people completed the test. As long as there was one more person per day, the test would be successfully passed.
On the eighth and seventh days, there was an increase. Now, on the fifth day, there was a time limit. After one person drank the chicken blood soup, the voice of the Artifact Spirit suddenly rang out in Gu Zheng's mind.
"Gokusen's successor, congratulations. The 50,000 people who piously prayed have all tasted the chicken blood soup. You have fulfilled their wishes. The power of 50,000 people will be returned to you!"
Following the Tool Spirit's words, Gu Zheng saw a vast expanse of white light spots above him. These light spots came to his head and quickly drilled into his mind.
Gu Zheng was in the kitchen. He was not alone. However, the others did not have any reaction. It was as if he was the only one who could see these light spots.
After the white light spots flew into Gu Zheng's mind, Gu Zheng did not feel anything special. If there was anything special, it was that his eyes became brighter and he could see things more clearly.
"Is this the power of will? What's the use of it?"
Gu Zheng asked in his mind. The power of will of 50,000 people was not a small number. Why didn't he feel any change at all?
"The power of will cannot enhance one's cultivation. However, it can enhance the ability of the five senses. Moreover, it can be accumulated in the sixth sense. When the accumulation of the sixth sense reaches a certain level, the sixth sense can be completely activated. When there is more power of will, it is possible to activate the seventh sense!"
The Tool Spirit explained to Gu Zheng. However, Gu Zheng did not understand. In fact, the power of will was a very good thing in the Untainted Land. Many Daluo Jinxian needed the power of will. They wanted to obtain the pure power of will. They would go to the Untainted Land and do something beneficial for the mortals. They would let the mortals pray to them and obtain the power of will.
It was also the case on Earth. People prayed to the gods. If those gods existed, they could obtain the power of will.
"Wait, what are the sixth sense and seventh sense you mentioned?" Gu Zheng asked hurriedly. He did not understand the Tool Spirit's explanation at all.
"Mortals have five senses, while immortals have eight senses. The sixth sense is the consciousness. Some mortals can accidentally trigger the sixth sense, but it is only a trigger and not activated. Only immortals can activate the sixth sense. If they want to activate the sixth sense, they must have enough power of will!"
"The power of will strengthens the sixth sense and then activates the seventh sense. In the Untainted Land, if you want to reach the Saint Immortal Realm, you must activate the eighth sense. However, these are very far away from you. Now you only need to know that the power of will can help you strengthen the basic five senses and activate your sixth sense!"
The Tool Spirit explained to Gu Zheng that activating the sixth sense required a huge amount of power of will. This little bit was not enough. Moreover, Gu Zheng had not even reached the realm of refining energy into qi. It was useless to tell him this.
The reason why it explained this was because Gu Zheng had obtained the power of will this time.
"It's so complicated. Just say that it strengthens the five senses and activates my sixth sense. This is not good!"
Gu Zheng did not know what the five senses and six senses were, but what it said was clearly the five senses and sixth sense. The five senses were very simple. In fact, it was more commonly known as the five senses. They were taste, smell, hearing, sight, and touch.
Above the five senses was the sixth sense, intuition. It was also known as premonition, or the Tool Spirit's sixth sense, consciousness.
No matter what the name was, the meaning was the same. This was Gu Zheng's understanding. The Tool Spirit did not bother with him this time and did not continue to explain. However, Gu Zheng's understanding was indeed correct. Every place had its own understanding.
The power of will could activate the sixth sense. It was indeed a good thing. The sixth sense was very powerful. If there was anything unfavorable to oneself, it could predict in advance. Many immortals knew that their time was coming because of the activation of the sixth sense.
Unfortunately, activating the sixth sense required too much power of will. The Tool Spirit did not mention how much power of will was needed. When Gu Zheng asked, it did not say anything, so he could only give up.
"Tool Spirit, did you forget something?" Seeing that the Tool Spirit did not speak for a long time, Gu Zheng suddenly asked.
"Don't worry, I did not forget. Do you want to accept the reward here?"
The Tool Spirit replied weakly. Gu Zheng laughed embarrassedly. He definitely could not accept it here. To accept the reward, he had to enter the Untainted Land. If he suddenly disappeared and reappeared here, it would scare everyone in the kitchen.
However, he did remind him that since the test was completed, he should not forget his reward.
