After the shareholders eting, Cheng Su had another eting with Song Xiaojang and Old Song. They needed to procure items for the restaurant, and everyone had to work together to finalize the list.
Procurent is not a simple task; you have to compare three different suppliers, consider prices, and weigh all options. You can’t just buy low-quality goods because they’re cheap and end up broken every few days. And you can’t buy expensive ones that are over the budget because everything needs to be controlled within limits.
Therefore, Cheng Su asked Song Xiaojang to visit the market frequently and compare prices.
Song Xiaojang, a mber of Joy Soon Loy and also a shareholder’s son, naturally cared about costs. The lower the cost, the higher the future dividends, so he happily agreed.
After discussing other trivial matters with Old Song, Cheng Su finally went ho. It was rare to have a weekend off, and she wanted to rest at ho, given the seemingly endless affairs before.
Before going ho, she bought so at, vegetables, and fruits, planning to cook a good al. When she arrived at the courtyard, she saw the community director gathering everyone for a talk.
The community director is actually just an unofficial title, chosen from those recognized as friendly and well-organized, to lead the family collective in case of any activity, taking the helm and flying the flag.
The current community director, who was also on good terms with Cheng Su, was Sister-in-law Gao, Gao Linbing’s wife. She was wearing a bright red puffer coat, speaking passionately and enthusiastically.
Cheng Su was a bit curious. Was there an event happening?
Thinking this, she walked over and asked what was going on.
She had just returned and was catching the end of the conversation. Seeing that it was her, people laughed and explained.
It turned out that as the year-end approached, there were many eligible bachelors in the military without partners. So, the military decided to organize a matchmaking event to solve the lifelong matters for the bachelors.
The bachelors were there, but where would the partners co from? This responsibility fell to the family courtyard. If any family had eligible daughters or friends, they could sign up. Whether sparks flew or not was another matter, but having the opportunity was good.
In this era, most families had more than one child, with sisters surely being more than one. Take Li Qiui upstairs; she had a sister, Qiulan, who was still single.
Therefore, the community director suggested everyone actively sign up their relatives or friends. If things worked out, it would be great. If not, they could just laugh it off and have a good ti.
In such matchmaking events, the bachelors from the military could perform group martial arts or drills, while the girls could showcase so of their talents to liven up the atmosphere.
Cheng Su listened with bright eyes, thinking these events were really good and could easily be called Rescue the Single Unmarried Youth activities.
"So, is there an age requirent? And do they have to be unmarried?" Cheng Su asked.
"Our military bachelors are all unmarried, so the requirent is naturally that the won must be unmarried as well. There’s no age limit," Sister-in-law Gao replied with a smile.
"I’ll sign up our Qiulan," Li Qiui was in the crowd, smiling as she spoke.
Hearing this, everyone said Qiulan was capable and beautiful, and anyone who married her would be blessed. They feared all the bachelors would be drawn to her.
Li Qiui was very proud; many people had asked about her sister.
Cheng Su’s mind started turning. She had so staff, all good girls, and Xiao Ya as well. She would have to ask them if they were interested later.
