"Don't. In this case, it's even more impossible for me to go. If I go, these people will tear me apart!"
Gu Zheng didn't bring any raw materials for eggs today, so it was impossible for him to make fried eggs. There were eggs in the restaurant, but they were all second-grade eggs that had not been upgraded. The taste of second-grade eggs would definitely not be as good as that of ordinary eggs.
Although there was only a difference of one grade between second-grade and ordinary, it was a gap that was difficult to cross. Second-grade ingredients could be planted, cultivated, and harvested. As long as one paid attention during the process of making, it could still be achieved. For example, the seaweed salt and soy sauce that Gu Zheng bought were meticulously made without any impurities, and finally reached second-grade quality.
However, Gu Zheng hadn't seen any ordinary ingredients, except for honey. As for ordinary ingredients, Gu Zheng had found a lot of second-grade ingredients by himself. He didn't find any ordinary ingredients. From this, one could see that ordinary ingredients were not easy to make.
The difference between the two was very big, so the taste would definitely be different. Even if Gu Zheng made it himself, he couldn't use second-grade eggs to make the original taste. Therefore, Gu Zheng refused. It was simply impossible for him to go.
Now that the test was over, the device spirit didn't restrict the quality of the ingredients he used. It was purely because he didn't want to make food that tasted worse.
This was human nature. If one could make something better, no one would be willing to make something worse. Just like those diners who came to eat fried eggs before, after eating the better eggs made by Gu Zheng, even if the taste of Little Chef Xu's fried eggs was much better than that of ordinary eggs, they still wouldn't be satisfied.
"If you don't go, they will tear me apart. Do you think it's better for them to tear you apart, or to tear me apart?"
Shu Yu looked at Gu Zheng with 'bad intentions'. Gu Zheng's forehead was a little sweaty. He was really worried that Shu Yu would take him there. So many people saw that he was fine, but he didn't want to make fried eggs. He didn't know what they would do.
"Shu Yu, let's think of a way. Actually, I'm here to give you money. Last time, we agreed to split the fried eggs 30/70. You get 30/70, and I get 70/70. These days, I bought 1400 fried eggs, and this is your share of 36960. You can count it, it's not a cent less. I'll leave first!"
Out of the thirty-six stratagems, running away was the best stratagem. Seeing that Shu Yu really wanted to pull him away, Gu Zheng hurriedly took out a stack of money from his bag and stuffed it into Shu Yu's hands. He took the opportunity to break free and quickly walked in the opposite direction. He didn't walk, he ran.
He was worried that if he continued to stay here, he would be seen by the passing diners. That would be troublesome.
"This Gu Zheng!"
With the money in hand, Shu Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she watched Gu Zheng run off. After some thought, she took the sign and the money back to the store.
"Master Gu called and said that he was really sorry that he couldn't come today. He specially invited everyone to eat the wontons here. Everyone can eat as much as they want. It's free!"
Shu Yu first hid the wooden sign. She didn't need this wooden sign for the time being. She didn't intend to take the money that Gu Zheng gave her. She said that she didn't want a share of the money. She only wanted to let Gu Zheng come here to experience life.
Although the share wasn't small, this amount of money was really nothing in her eyes. Since Gu Zheng forced it to her, she could use this to buy people's hearts. As the saying goes, one's mouth is soft after eating. Because Gu Zheng couldn't treat everyone to wontons and didn't limit the amount, these people were too embarrassed to continue making a fuss here.
A bowl of wontons was only nine yuan. Even if the drinks and other food were added, it wouldn't exceed twenty yuan. It was enough to fill one person's stomach. There weren't even a hundred people here. They didn't even use one-tenth of the money. Buying people's hearts like this didn't burden Shu Yu at all.
When they heard that Gu Zheng was treating, these people indeed had the same thought as Shu Yu. They were too embarrassed to continue making a fuss. Some people directly left the store. Some people stayed in the store to eat wontons. After eating, they also left. The noisy crowd finally slowly dispersed. Shu Yu and the people in the store heaved a sigh of relief.
However, Shu Yu understood that this was treating the symptoms but not the root cause. She still underestimated the influence of Gu Zheng's fried eggs. There were many people who had eaten the fried eggs many times, such as the gold-rimmed glasses and the people who brought people to buy the fried eggs. These people were more persistent. Most of the people who were waiting before were also this kind of people.
At present, the treat could be delayed for a while, but it couldn't be delayed forever. Shu Yu's heart became more and more worried. Gu Zheng really gave her a big problem. The one who tied the bell should untie it. In the end, this problem could only be solved by Gu Zheng.
"Duck blood and vermicelli soup!"
At this time, Gu Zheng didn't have the slightest awareness of solving the problem. He took a detour around two streets and finally came in front of an exquisite small restaurant. This small restaurant was bigger than Shu Yu's store. It was two times bigger. There were many people inside. It was basically full.
For a restaurant, the popularity meant that the food was good. Although it wasn't absolute, most of the time it was like this.
Only when the food was delicious could it attract more repeat customers. With more repeat customers, the restaurant's popularity would rise. Seeing that there were so many people here, even those who didn't want to eat would be curious and buy one to try. Then, they would recognize the taste and become repeat customers.
Under a virtuous cycle, the business would get better and better. Many popular small stores were like this.
In the past, when Gu Zheng was looking for some delicious food, he would also look at the people in the store. If there were more people, he would go in to join in the fun. Most of them were not disappointed. Seeing so many people in this store, Gu Zheng simply walked in.
Duck blood and vermicelli soup was a famous snack in Nanjing. The store in front of Gu Zheng was a franchise store. There were many branches in Shen Cheng City, but the main store was also in Shen Cheng City.
Duck blood and vermicelli soup was made with duck blood as the main ingredient, duck intestine, duck liver as the supplement, duck soup, and finally vermicelli. Duck blood and vermicelli soup was an ancient snack with a long history. The earliest version was duck blood soup. In the Qing Dynasty, someone added vermicelli to duck blood soup, which tasted better. Finally, it became the current duck blood and vermicelli soup.
"A bowl of duck blood and vermicelli soup!"
Gu Zheng came with the intention of reviewing. He didn't ask for anything else. He directly asked for a bowl of duck blood and vermicelli soup. After a while, the steaming hot vermicelli soup was placed in front of him. Gu Zheng sniffed. The fragrance was very strong. Unfortunately, there was a slight fishy smell. It was a small mistake that the fishy smell didn't get rid of it.
Gu Zheng also understood that it was not easy to get rid of the fishy smell in this kind of meat with animal blood and internal organs. It was already very difficult to get rid of most of the fishy smell. Compared to other soups, it was much better.
"The vermicelli is good. It's tender and chewy. The taste of the soup is very strong. It's a pity that the duck blood, duck intestine, and duck liver are all reared, which lowered the quality of the soup!"
Gu Zheng ate a mouthful of vermicelli and drank a mouthful of the soup. He shook his head and sighed. The taste of the soup was not bad. Otherwise, it wouldn't have attracted so many people. However, the main ingredient used was duck blood and other duck auxiliary ingredients, which were all reared by the feed factory.
Gu Zheng knew that it was the duck from the feed factory. It was not because he could eat it, but because of the evaluation of the spirit of the device. After the soup was served, the spirit of the device gave a rating of garbage. Not only the rating, but also a very detailed explanation to Gu Zheng.
