Chapter 252 Then Give Me 2000 First
"Aden Plaza Food Ranking?" McGrath opened the door and glanced at the two middle-aged men in red vests, shook his head and said, "Not interested. Dust ← Fate ↑ Literature ↗ Learning? Net" and closed the door immediately after speaking.
"Huh?" Alvin and Luther glanced at each other, both a little surprised. Generally, newly opened restaurants are very enthusiastic about such things as food rankings. Advertising opportunities for diners can directly increase turnover.
Of course, it is basically impossible for a new restaurant to rank among the top 100, but there has never been such a boss who refused without thinking.
"Luther, let's go. It seems that this boss is quite self-aware. If a restaurant that has only been open for more than ten days can be on the list, someone should doubt the authority of our food list." Alvin closed the notebook in his hand , a little unhappy.
"Don't tell me, none of our restaurants in Aden Square have used such a large piece of crystal as a decoration. Maybe they have plenty of money." Luther pointed to the floor-to-ceiling glass beside him, a little surprised.
McGonagall is really not interested in the so-called gourmet food rankings. These things have always been prepared for those who have no idea and are looking for food by themselves, and generally the list is not the best and most unique restaurant, but the consumption price. Medium, the restaurant with the most diners, because only they can have a huge number of votes.
The real gourmet food is often hidden in the restaurants in the middle and lower reaches, and some restaurants do not appear on the list at all. They are hidden in a certain corner of the city, waiting for customers to dig and discover by themselves.
Of course, the most important thing is that Mag is no longer worried about the source of customers. Instead of welcoming a large number of tourists every day because of the top rankings, he prefers to receive familiar faces with spending power every day. Anyway, he can provide There is only so much food, so why do you need such a high degree of attention?
"Ding! The system releases a new task: Ask the host to enter the top 30 restaurants with a dish in this month's Aden Square food ranking list. The reward for successful task: a Haagen-Dazs ice cream set recipe! Penalty for task failure: fine 10,000 gold coins!" At this moment, the system's voice suddenly sounded.
"Wait a minute, system, you just said what is the punishment for mission failure?" Mag stopped suddenly, feeling as if he had heard something wrong.
"Punishment for mission failure: a fine of 10,000 gold coins!" The system repeated.
"Damn it, the system, although I know you like money, but can you stop being so obvious! Whoever fails the system task is fined!!!" Mag couldn't help roaring in his heart, but still Opening the door, he said to the two men who turned around and were about to leave with a bit of embarrassment: "Wait a minute,
I thought about it, and I'm still a little interested. "
"Huh?" Alvin and Luther turned around and looked at Mag with some doubts.
"Boss, do you mean that you are going to participate in this time's battle for the food rankings in Aden Square?" Luther asked.
"Yes, do I need to do something?" Mag nodded with a smile, MMP in his heart, poverty is indeed the original sin, and he had to bow to the system for 10,000 gold coins.
Of course, the Haggas ice cream package also made Mag a little tempted. It is the favorite of the children. Amy will definitely like it very much. It must be very cute to see the little guy eating ice cream.
"The top 30 on the list should be easy, right?" Mag is also full of confidence. He still doesn't believe that there are dishes that can cook better than him in this Aden Square, let alone the top 30. In terms of deliciousness, he thinks Baoyuan's top three should be fine.
Both men are of medium build, about forty years old, with bulging stomachs, and seem to eat a lot. There is a pot and a spoon embroidered on the chest of the small red vest on their bodies, and a line of words is embroidered on the back: Aden Plaza Catering Association. The one on the left is still holding a cloth bag.
"If you want to participate, you need to pay a registration fee of five gold coins first, and then we will add your restaurant to the pre-selection list for this ranking. Starting tomorrow, customers will vote with small tickets for a period of ten days, and finally Select the 100 restaurants with the highest number of votes and the highest scores as this month's food list." Alvin looked up at the name of the restaurant, opened the notebook in his hand and wrote it, and then naturally extended his hand to Mag .
"It's that simple?" McGonagall didn't rush to pay. It would be a bit of a scam to write the name of the restaurant on the notebook and ask him to pay five gold coins.
"Of course not, but the subsequent process will not proceed until after the registration fee is collected." Luther smiled.
"Five gold coins." Mag hesitated for a moment, but still took out five gold coins from his pocket and handed them to Alvin. It seems that their process is already very proficient. It is held once a month, and the registration fee alone Can receive a lot.
"Very good, then this is a special vote ticket. Boss, after you check out every time, you can send this ticket to the guests. With this ticket, the guests can evaluate and vote on the restaurant's food. The final voting result is the statistical All restaurants enter the store to consume the evaluations of customers, and then combine the number of customers and the amount of consumption to give a final cumulative score, so as to draw the ranking list." Luther took out two stacks of five centimeters wide and ten centimeters long from the cloth bag in his hand. The little card, at the same time stretched out the other hand to Mag, and said with a smile: "This is a ticket paper with the association's special magic anti-counterfeiting mark, a stack of 100 sheets, and a stack of gold coins, boss, how many stacks do you need?"
"Fuck! There is definitely a chain of interests behind this. A ticket costs one copper coin. Those restaurants with a high traffic flow have to spend tens of thousands of dollars on tickets. This is not counting the cost of their trust. There is no one in the top ten, so I guess they won’t be able to get it, right?” Mag raised his eyebrows, it seems that he still thinks the problem is too simple, and thinks the alien merchant is too simple, this kind of trick, they Play more slippery.
"If you want to enter the top 30, how many tickets do you usually need?" Mag asked tentatively.
"The top 30, I can't say for sure. If the price of the restaurant's dishes is relatively expensive, two or three thousand sheets may be enough. If it is five copper coins like shallot pancakes, ten thousand sheets will be enough. It’s probably hard to get into the top 100. But if it’s your restaurant, I suggest you buy less, it’s a waste to use it up.” Luther glanced at Mag in surprise, but he didn’t expect this father to look at him at such a young age. , When you're not interested, forget it, but when you're interested, you still want to get your hands on the top 30 of the rankings.
You must know that each of the top 30 on this month's ranking list is an old restaurant for more than three years, and the restaurants are not small in scale. Most of the doors still have the badge of the Aden Chamber of Commerce. A small restaurant that has just opened wants to Taking a share of the pie from it is simply a dream.
"Okay, then give me two thousand first." Mag thought for a while, nodded and said.
