At this moment, the police forces in Fontainebleau were unaware of the enormous burden that was about to be placed on their shoulders.

After the conversation ended, Chao Ke saw Louise outside the office; she seemed to have been waiting for him for some time.

"Good afternoon, Louise. Is there something you need?"

Louise breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Chao Ke's figure.

"Boss, did you see today's Steambird Newspaper? A lot of people came after seeing the information about our restaurant, but you're not here, and the restaurant isn't open. The customers are lining up in a huge circle outside. What do you think we should do?"

Louise's words gave Chao Ke a headache.

They were so focused on recruiting employees that they forgot about the reporters' interviews. Now look what happened, the customer traffic is plentiful, but they couldn't capitalize on it.

Standing up customers is a serious blow to one's reputation.

Especially for new restaurants like Jia Zi Wei, if things aren't handled properly, it may take a long time to recover their reputation.

"We need to give the customers an explanation, and it would be best to give them some coupons or something as compensation, but how can we make a large number of coupons in such a short time?"

Hey! That's right!

Chao Ke looked at the stack of "Amazing" newspapers; the coupons were right there!

"Louise! Come with me, I have an idea!" Chao Ke said, grabbing a stack of newspapers and running towards the restaurant.

"Ah! Boss, wait a minute!"

...

Outside the Jiaziwei Restaurant, a group of dissatisfied diners gathered.

"What? The decor of this Jiaziwei Restaurant is indeed something special, but as a restaurant, it doesn't even open its doors to customers. How can you do business like that?"

"Sigh, after reading today's Steambird News, I was thinking of taking my family to try this new restaurant, but now it seems..."

"Damn restaurant, I finally managed to get a date with my crush..."

"Not bad, not bad. I thought a powerful competitor had arrived in Vasari Corridor, but they even dared to cancel the first wave of customers. It seems they are not a threat."

"..."

Chao Ke led Louise through the noisy crowd and stopped at the restaurant entrance.

"Hey! Everyone, listen to me!"

Chao Ke's loud voice attracted everyone's attention, and people all focused their gaze on him.

"I am the owner of this restaurant! I apologize to everyone for the sudden closure of Jia Zi Wei Restaurant!"

After witnessing this scene, the diners' anger visibly subsided a little.

Meanwhile, Chao Ke silently marveled to himself, "As expected of Inazuma's intangible cultural heritage, the spirit of craftsmanship is truly effective."

After apologizing, Chao Ke began to explain the reason for closing the store.

"Dear diners, Jia Zi Wei Restaurant is closing today to fill staff in order to provide you with a better dining experience. However, due to my personal oversight, I forgot to post the closure notice, which is why you all made a wasted trip."

The surrounding diners were fairly satisfied with Chao Ke's explanation, and many of them changed their tone.

"Never mind, the restaurant meant well. Their idea of ​​improving service is good, it's just that they forgot to notify us in advance."

"Well, everyone makes mistakes sometimes. It's inevitable that the restaurant will be a little unfamiliar with things when it first opens."

"Ugh, I finally managed to get a date with my dream girl, what a pity..."

After receiving an explanation, the diners began to disperse and no longer gathered around the restaurant.

"Dear diners! Please don't leave yet!"

"To express my apologies, I'm giving everyone a 20% discount coupon for the restaurant. Please come again tomorrow, and we'll definitely serve you better!"

As he spoke, Chao Ke began distributing newspapers to the crowd.

Upon hearing about the 20% discount coupon, the surrounding crowd became excited and eagerly grabbed it.

"Hey! Boss, this doesn't look like a coupon, it looks like a newspaper!"

Someone glanced at the "coupon" and asked Chao Ke a question, and the people around him echoed, urging Chao Ke to answer.

"Yes, it is indeed today's 'Amazing' newspaper. Due to the urgency of the situation, I didn't have time to make coupons. But I hereby promise that from now on, anyone who brings today's 'Amazing' newspaper to the store will enjoy a 20% discount!"

Immediately, the diners cheered, showing great interest in the newspaper in Chao Ke's hand.

Among the enthusiastic crowd, there were quite a few quick-witted individuals.

After confirming that the newspaper distributed by Chao Ke was today's "Amazing," they did not fight over it here, but instead went to various newsstands in Fontainebleau to begin their sweep.

In the future, this newspaper will be regarded as one of the most powerful marketing cases in Teyvat history.

Because this edition of the "Wonder" newspaper was published on Thursday, May 10th, it was jokingly called "Wonderful Thursday, May 50th!"

Chapter 26 Should we just admit it?

After distributing the last copy of the "Amazing" newspaper, the bustling crowd on the street finally dispersed.

Stretching, and taking advantage of the fact that it wasn't too late, Chao Ke made another trip to the Fontaine Nabonne district, intending to finish the recruitment process.

This time, Chao Ke successfully bumped into Ashley and Butler at the door.

After seeing the restaurant uniforms the two women were wearing, Chao Ke finally understood why his older sister had recommended them to him.

Chao Ke had met these two people before, just in the last few days.

They were both waitresses at the Grand Hotel Debord, especially Ashley, who was the maid who had served her at the Grand Hotel Debord last time.

Chao Ke couldn't help but sigh, his older sister was really generous, giving up the informant she had planted at the Debo Hotel to him.

However, these two are indeed an excellent choice. They are not only reliable to use, but also have extensive experience as waiters, making them the best candidates for the restaurant at present.

"Sir, what can I do for you?" Ashley asked Chao Ke in a soft, pleasant voice.

Behind her, Butrei was secretly sizing up Chao Ke, seemingly assessing his threat level.

Time was of the essence, so Chao Ke didn't take his time to talk. Instead, he revealed his identity and told the two of them his demands.

After confirming that it was Arecino's instruction, Ashley and Butrei immediately agreed to Chao Ke's hiring. They stated that they would submit their resignations at the Grand Hotel Debord the next morning and start working at the Jia Zi Wei Restaurant as soon as possible.

...

Momang Palace.

Although it was completely dark, the office of the Supreme Judge Navilette was still brightly lit.

As a key focus, all information regarding the Bufati Mansion and the Jia Zi Wei Restaurant would be delivered to Navelette immediately.

The events that occurred this afternoon in the Vasari Corridor were no exception.

Navelette held today's "Amazing" newspaper in her hand, her expression shifting between anger and uncertainty, while the several high-ranking police officers who had been summoned sat on the sofa, feeling extremely uneasy.

"Let's discuss what everyone thinks of this newspaper."

Navelette spoke in a low voice, his flat tone making it difficult to discern his true emotions.

"This...this is slander! I suggest arresting everyone at the Amazing Newspaper and stripping them of their publishing license! Then publish in the Steambird Newspaper that we have nothing to do with the Delicious Restaurant."

"It's no use. The headquarters of the 'Amazing' newspaper is in the Grey River District. Besides, they are not a legitimate newspaper and don't even have the qualifications to run a newspaper."

“Ah! This…”

"I also don't agree with publishing the news in the Steambird News. This matter isn't very popular to begin with, but if we make a big fuss about denying it, it will only make it known to everyone."

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"..."

For a moment, the situation was at a stalemate.

But a figure stepped forward from the corner, "Um... I have an idea."

Everyone looked over and saw that the speaker was Donatello, one of the people involved.

“Mr. Donatello, what is your proposal?” Navelette looked at him and said in a low voice.

"I think, why don't we just accept this?"

These words caused an uproar among the crowd, and the head of the security team immediately spoke up.

"Are you crazy? That's the territory of the Fools. Do you want us to act as their protectors?"

Donatello was not affected by the words of others, and calmly explained.

"Since our initial goal was to monitor the restaurant's operations, why not simply accept this offer and tacitly acknowledge that Jia Zi Wei Restaurant is within our sphere of influence? Then, we can openly send police officers to oversee and manage it?"

"Ah...this..."

The proposal convinced everyone, and even Villette lowered her head in deep thought, considering the feasibility of Donatello's proposal.

It seems like that might actually be a solution.

The location of Jia Zi Wei Restaurant is already quite sensitive, not only connecting to the Bufati Mansion, the Fools' intelligence base, but also being right next to an entrance to the Grey River district. Openly deploying a police force here seems like a good option.

After some discussion, everyone agreed to Donatello's proposal and decided to tacitly approve the report, neither denying it nor making a public statement.

...

After dealing with Ashley and Butler's matter, Chao Ke didn't rush home. Instead, he went back to Jia Zi Wei Restaurant and marinated a batch of chicken nuggets overnight.

Chao Ke plans to add the "Golden Finger-Licking Chicken" to the restaurant's menu starting tomorrow.

However, the refrigerator in the Delicious Restaurant doesn't have the time-accelerating effect like the God of Cookery's Trial Grounds, so many ingredients need to be prepared in advance.

Fortunately, Chao Ke's physical condition is now different from that of ordinary people, so staying up late for a while has no effect on him.

The next morning.

Louise got up very early, intending to visit Fimini and the other children at the mansion first, but she was surprised to find that the restaurant was already open when she passed by.

In addition, a sign has been added at the entrance of the restaurant.

"Hey? Has the boss developed a new product?"

The sign featured a vivid triangle design, with the price displayed in text below.

New Product Launch: Giant Golden Finger-Licking Chicken

Price: 3250 Mora (7 pieces)
