Being accused by Gu Zheng that her words and deeds were not dignified, the female guest's expression was very embarrassed, she opened her mouth to say something, but couldn't say anything for a while.

"Do you still want me to cook the ingredients you brought?"

Gu Zheng spoke again, if the female guest wanted to change her mind because of his words, he didn't care at all.

"think."

The female guest nodded, her originally frivolous eyes became a little scared, and she opened the box on the table.

"Is that all you have to offer?"

The thing in the box is a box of canned food. It is so 'notorious' no matter on the earth or on Fenglanxing. Its name is - canned herring.

"Yes, this is all I offer, can you take such a business?"

The female guest went to see Gu Zheng cautiously. Gu Zheng's cold warning just now really frightened her.

"Okay, let's swear!" Gu Zheng said.

"good."

The female guest obediently swears, and seeing Gu Zheng enter the kitchen with canned herring, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hmph, you don't even look in the mirror, you look like a pig, and you want to plot against my master!"

Following Gu Zheng into the kitchen, Die Ling spoke in a huff.

"If your sister hadn't spoken out just now, wouldn't you have scolded me too?" Gu Zheng smiled.

"Of course! If she is not a customer of Qidian, watch how I deal with her!"

Die Ling glared at the female guest who was looking into the kitchen, and she quickly lowered her head in fright.

"Okay, don't be angry! There are so many wonders in the world, there is no need to get angry over a little thing, not to mention that I don't have any unreasonable thoughts about her."

Gu Zheng's words fell to the ground, and his brows frowned slightly. He learned through the restrictions placed outside the store that someone knocked on the door of No. 3 Strange Store.

"You go to No. 3 Qidian to receive him, and I'll go over after I've dealt with this business." Gu Zheng said.

"Okay, today is really good, business is coming one after another!"

There was a business visit, which made Die Ling forget her previous displeasure, she immediately left the kitchen and was greeted by No. 3 strange shop ahead.

As for canned herring, Gu Zheng had heard of its name before he became an immortal cultivator, but he had never really come into contact with this kind of food.

Although he knew that the canned herring was very smelly, when Gu Zheng opened it, the smell was a bit beyond imagination.

"Such a stinky garbage ingredient, if it's not for a mission, I really don't want you to cook it!" Qi Ling gritted his teeth.

"In many cases, there is only a thin line between fragrance and smell. The smell produced by the fermentation of certain foods is often diluted many times to produce fragrance. Smell is actually a very high level in the diet. The Tao of essence transformation!" Gu Zheng said.

"Really? Why didn't I hear Lord Tiexian say that?" Qi Ling asked suspiciously.

"When you first followed me, you didn't like many ingredients. I think this is also due to the influence of Lord Tiexian on you! In my opinion, Master Tiexian certainly knows this truth, but he doesn't bother with it. To cook this type of food, naturally I won't tell you more." Gu Zheng said.

Qi Ling thought for a while and said, "It seems to make sense!"

"Speaking of which, a box of stinky canned food does not contain any ingredients or accessories. Is it difficult to cook this time?" Qi Ling asked.

"The cooking difficulty is not bad! If there is no difficulty, the Taotie statue will definitely not agree." Gu Zheng said.

"Compared to the previous three orders?" Qi Ling asked again.

"It is more difficult than the previous three orders, and it will take longer to process."

After Gu Zheng finished speaking, he poured the canned herring into a bowl and put it in the steamer.

Using the fire control technique to ignite the fire, Gu Zheng carefully controlled the temperature. What he has to do now is not to boil the water, but to reach the appropriate temperature.

The proper temperature has been reached, and Gu Zheng used the water control formula to control the changes in the meat quality of the herring in the bowl. This step is to initially transform the essence of the ingredients.

After a while, Gu Zheng took the bowl out of the cage, and the female guest approached the glass curiously.

In the eyes of the female guest, there is no difference between the herring in the bowl and the time when the can was first opened. But in the eyes of Gu Zheng, the color of the flesh under the skin of the herring is not the original white, but has become a little beige.

There is a lot of soup in the bowl with the herring, which is the soup that it has when it is canned. Gu Zheng left the herring in the bowl, poured the soup into the pot, and boiled it over a low heat.

There has been preliminary processing in the cage, and the herring soup is not as smelly as imagined during the process of tormenting.

The soup in the pot had just boiled, and Gu Zheng poured out the soup. Under the action of the extreme cold, the soup immediately became cold, and Gu Zheng poured it into the bowl with the herring.

Putting the bowl with herring on the steamer again, Gu Zheng began to process the herring again with the Five Elements Immortal Jue.

It was steamed and decocted again, and it went back and forth four times, and each time it came out of the pot when the water was boiling.

After four steaming and four frying, Gu Zheng poured the seven herrings and the soup into the plate. At this time, the color of the herring is beige, and the original off-white soup has also turned into milky white. The smell is not only smelly, but also exudes a fresh fragrance similar to stewed fish soup.

"It's the last time!"

Gu Zheng secretly said, and put the plate with the herring in the steamer, this time he completely let the herring enter the steaming process.

After a while.

The finished herring appeared on the table of the female guests.

Looking at the beige herring and the milky white soup on the plate, the female guest's eyes are a little straight.

"Is this the canned herring I brought? Why is there no smell at all?"

The female guest whispered that she had never eaten canned herring, she just knew that it stinks.

Gu Zheng didn't say much, he just watched quietly, anyway, he had already cooked the canned herring without cheating, and he didn't bother to respond to the female guest's question.

Seeing that Gu Zheng didn't respond, the female guest also felt bored, and she picked up the chopsticks and stirred among the herrings.

"Huh, the more I look at it, the more angry I am. What's so great about cultivating immortals? My aunt has never been treated like this since she grew up! Swear? The vow my aunt made since she was a child has never been fulfilled!"

The female guest cursed in her heart, picked up a piece of herring meat and put it into her mouth, as if she was biting the meat of Gu Zheng, she began to chew hard.

After eating a piece of herring meat, the female guest put down her chopsticks. She looked at Gu Zheng and said, "I've never eaten canned herring, and I don't know how to evaluate things made from canned herring. I only know that it doesn't smell bad. On the contrary, it has a different kind of umami taste. The meat is very fat and tender, and it seems to melt in the mouth, but it is not greasy at all. I did not expect that a dish made of canned herring, if only In terms of fatness, it is the most delicious fish I have ever eaten! Compared with the stinky smell of the previous dish, you have indeed made it a well-deserved delicacy! Congratulations, you have successfully completed an order Business!"

Gu Zheng frowned. When the female guest was about to speak, her expression was very calm, but after she started to speak, her expression was very painful, as if she was suffering! However, the pained expression did not affect the solemnity of her voice at all. In the end, she congratulated Gu Zheng for completing a deal, which made Gu Zheng immediately look at the Taotie statue.

"That's right, this bitch wanted to make comments against her will, and the Taotie statue had an effect on her, forcing her to tell the truth." Qi Ling said.

"Is it just telling the truth? I feel that things are not that simple!"

Gu Zheng saw something unusual from the painful expression of the female guest.

"The Taotie statue was given by Lord Tiexian. It is not a dead thing, but a psychic thing! Although Lord Tiexian did not set the rules for swearing for the task, after I perfected the rules, the diners must follow the rules. To do things, she made an oath but went against her will, I don't think she will live long!" Qi Ling sneered.

"Although the Taotie statue is psychic, will it cause me unnecessary trouble by doing so?" Gu Zheng frowned.

"It should be. Anyway, this is not considered by the Taotie statue. All it does is help this stinky woman fulfill her oath!"

Qi Ling didn't take it seriously, but Gu Zheng couldn't just ignore it like this. After all, he still had a lot of business to do.

"Well!"

The female guest suddenly groaned, and the painful expression on her face disappeared, replaced by a daze! There seems to be a voice in her head reminding her, telling her that she is very tired now, she doesn't want to say anything, she doesn't want to know anything, she just wants to go home and sleep quickly!

The female customer was very obedient, she obeyed the voice in her head, and started walking towards the door of Qidian.

However, the female customer fainted before she could get out of the strange shop. Gu Zheng used "weaving" to tamper with the female customer's memory.

"Even if she dies, it's her own fault, but her death will affect the business, so let her be spared!"

Gu Zheng "weaved" the memory of the female guest, and dissolved the power of the Taotie statue in her body, which could make her die three days later.

The female customer left the strange shop, and she has a very clear memory of what happened in the strange shop, but this kind of memory is also the memory that Gu Zheng allows her to have.

"The fourth business has been completed, and I hope that in the future business, there will be no such reckless people!"

Looking at the departing female customer and shaking his head, Gu Zheng used the teleportation array to go to No. 3 Strange Store, where the customers had been waiting for him for a while.

The customers in the No. 3 store were relatively straightforward. It didn't take much time for Gu Zheng to make delicious food from the ingredients he provided, and completed the fifth order after the opening of Qidian.

Without giving Gu Zheng any time to rest, another customer knocked on the door of No. 1 Strange Store.

Gu Zheng rushed to the No. 1 strange store, and welcomed the frail male customer wearing glasses into the store.

After the guests were seated, Gu Zheng stared at him and said, "Are you a reporter?"

"no!"

The guest was very calm. He pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose and asked, "Why do you say I'm a reporter?"

"Because you are wearing a pinhole camera device." Gu Zheng said.

"Didn't you tell the other guests that you are just a cultivator? If you are just a cultivator, you wouldn't know that I have a pinhole camera device just after seeing me, right?"

Being exposed by Gu Zheng, the reporter didn't panic because of this, he dared to play candid shots, and he still had a mentality different from ordinary people.

"For ordinary guests, I would say that I am a practitioner, but for you..."

Gu Zheng's voice was drawn out, and he stretched out his hand towards the reporter.

The reporter wanted to hide, but the air around him was tense. He could only feel Gu Zheng's hand on his head with terrified eyes, and then he didn't know anything.

It is not unimaginable that there will be reporters pretending to be customers to visit the strange shop unannounced, so Gu Zheng has already planned for this.

Gu Zheng searched the soul of the reporter. He originally thought that the media behind the reporter was just a local media, but who would have thought that the media behind him turned out to be a very famous media in this country. There are many people who follow the news of this media.

Knowing the results of Gu Zheng's search for the reporter's soul, Qi Ling said: "It's good, the media behind him has so much attention, you can save yourself from changing the place of Qidian."

"Initially, I really planned to change the location of the odd shops when the odd shops in these three cities are less frequented. Now it seems that there is really no need for it." Gu Zheng smiled slightly.

The appearance of Qidian has sparked heated discussions on the Internet, but how the owner of Qidian cooks has always been a mystery to curious netizens! Moreover, apart from how the owner of the strange shop cooks, netizens are also very curious about many things in the strange shop.

The task given to reporters by the big media is to be able to release video reports. Even if for some reason, video reports cannot be released, it is necessary to sort out the details of Gu Zheng's cooking and some details of the strange shop. The manuscript is coming.

Although a month later, Qidian will change some rules to attract immortal cultivators, the source of customers should not be a problem by then. But during this month, Gu Zheng still wanted to complete as many deals as possible! Therefore, he wanted to 'weave' the reporter's memory.

Gu Zheng began to 'weave' the reporter's memory. In the reporter's brand new memory, Qidian is not as magical as the outside world has said. The owner of the store is somewhat suspicious of pretending to be mysterious. As for the identity of the owner, he is indeed just a cultivator.

"Qi Ling, I want to lose it in the reporter's memory, can I have this?"

The ancient dispute that was 'weaving' the reporter's memory stopped.

"No, you are the descendant of Tiexian, unless you really lost to someone, how can you say you lost?" Qi Ling said.

"Rules are dead, people are alive! What's more, the purpose of this mission is to test my cooking skills. I let me lose in the reporter's memory. This has no effect on my cooking skills, but will It’s all about increasing the source of customers. Although Lord Tiexian has his plan on how to increase the source of customers, it’s one thing to plan, but another thing to execute it! No one is sure when the time comes. There will definitely not be any variables that affect the plan! If the failure of the mission is not due to my cooking skills, but to the source of customers, I don't think this is the result that Lord Tiexian wants to see, right?" Gu Zheng earnestly Good at inducing.

The tasks that Gu Zheng did, the framework and some details were determined by Tiexian, but the details that were too specific were generally measured by Qi Ling.

"Master Tiexian didn't say that you can use this method to increase the source of customers." Qi Ling hesitated.

"Master Tiexian didn't say anything, but you have the right to measure the details of some missions, don't you? I'm Master Tiexian's apprentice, but the owner of Qidian is not Master Tiexian's apprentice! In the memory of being 'woven' by the reporter, and the reports caused by it, it has no real impact on testing my cooking skills! After all, the ingredients provided by the guests are checked by the gluttonous statues. Although the source of customers will Bigger, but the quality of the tasks I do will not be reduced!" Gu Zheng said earnestly.

Qi Ling is actually very smart, but when it comes to the rules set by Tiexian, he seems a bit stubborn. If it weren't for this, Tiexian wouldn't have decided on the mission reward that Gu Zheng could use Qi Ling to vent his anger once.

Today is not what it used to be, and Qi Ling has changed a lot in the past few years accompanying Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng's earnest and kind temptations were not in vain, and Qi Ling agreed to Gu Zheng's proposal after biting.

"Promise to let you do this, it makes me feel like I did something bad behind the back of Lord Tiexian!"

Qi Ling rolled his eyes at Gu Zheng, then smiled and said: "You are lost in the reporter's memory, and the resulting reports will definitely increase your customer base! At that time, those people will be misled by the reports, and they will be full of confidence. I want to come to defeat you, but leave with a depressed face in the end, the imagination is quite exciting!"

"Do you know what you look like when you smile?" Gu Zheng asked.

"Like what?" Qi Ling asked with wide eyes.

"Like a child who has succeeded in playing a prank!" Gu Zheng laughed.

"You're looking for a fight!" Qi Ling gritted her teeth and raised her small fist.

The reporter took one million and left Qidian satisfied.

In the memory of the reporter, the owner of Qidian did not use the ingredients he prepared to make delicious food that satisfied him.

The crowd of onlookers was a little excited. Although the reporter didn't say anything to them at all, the extra lockbox in the reporter's hand still aroused their wild guesses.

Gu Zheng can 'weave' memories for reporters, and he can also change the content captured by the pinhole camera device, so what the reporter brings to the media is sufficient.

Seeing that the reporter won one million and left, someone among the people who had been watching outside the store immediately knocked on the door of Qidian irresistibly.

The visitor brought ingredients, but unfortunately, the ingredients he brought were considered not difficult enough by the Taotie statue.

Faced with such a situation, the visitor did not think that this was an excuse that Gu Zheng could not control, as Han Zhe did before, and he immediately left Qidian to prepare new ingredients.

"Let me just say, the difficulty of this kind of ingredients is definitely not good!"

"This strange shop is really strange! Its existence is really not to make money? It doesn't accept the ingredients that are not difficult enough!"

"Friend, if you go to prepare the ingredients again, just prepare according to the few ingredients I told you just now. I think those few ingredients will definitely stump the other party!"

"My friend, let's discuss something with you? If you are afraid of losing, let's just go together! One hundred thousand yuan and one person will pay fifty thousand yuan, and if you lose, you will lose. What if we win five hundred thousand yuan?"

The onlookers had everything to say, but the guests only cared about finding the ingredients, and ignored their enthusiasm.

Looking at the back of the guests leaving, the eyes of the person who originally wanted to partner with him suddenly lit up, and immediately shouted excitedly: "Find four people to join, and each person will pay 25,000 yuan. What kind of ingredients are we going to use? Discuss, and finally sign a contract saying that one million will be shared equally!"

"I!"

"I!"

"I!"

One person offered 100,000, and the onlookers were reluctant to part with it, but they only offered 25,000, so many people were willing to give it a try! After all, if this is a gamble, then it is a ratio of one to ten! And if everyone brainstorms, there will definitely be some troubles.
