Chapter 2389: 1867: A Stroke of Bad Luck with Money (Part 2)

For instance, this television, because she had no need for it herself, she hadn’t thought of it at all. The canteen had already set up card tables, and she didn’t notice this, which was really inexcusable.

Sure enough, when she went down the hill to tell Song Tan, she immediately agreed.

"Let’s not just get one, our canteen is big, let’s put one on each side. You just order two 100-inch ones, ask about the accessories, one of our security team knows how to install them."

The culture and entertainment spirit, she really did overlook it!

Although there’s a sports area at the Village Department where you can play basketball, table tennis, and badminton, on rainy days, indoor activities are more popular.

Besides, employees might prefer entertainment that doesn’t require much physical effort after work.

"How about this, you do some research, see if there’s any big equipment suitable for playing movies. I’ll donate it to the square at the Village Department, and we can organize everyone to watch movies together later."

Yun Duo nodded decisively: "Okay!"

She agreed verbally, noted it down in her memo, then planned to go online and order the TV, while responding to Aunt Zhang Hong’s delivery instructions on WhatsApp...

Song Tan watched her bustling around like a spinning top and suddenly felt grateful again:

It’s so nice to have employees helping out!

No wonder those big bosses always seem so energetic every day, turns out small decisions like buying things don’t drain them at all.

But apparently, Yun Duo’s busyness was far from over.

Because after some communication, she, who had already got into the car, straightforwardly got out again: "Boss, Aunt Zhang Hong asked if those eligible singles coming that day could take two sweet melons each when they leave?"

Song Tan was taken aback: "Yes, those without cars we provide transportation, and those with cars get an extra melon."

Yun Duo laughed: "Aunt Zhang Hong said she added a lot of girls on WhatsApp at the matchmaking meeting last time and created a group, hoping to invite them to come and have fun too."

"There’s no coercion to make them date, it’s mainly about having more opportunities and more paths, what if, right?"

Song Tan: "... Aunt Zhang Hong is something else."

Getting inside and being trusted so much by the other party, even willing to sacrifice valuable time and effort to trek to the countryside.

She admits her sweet melons are delicious, but many people here probably can’t even imagine how good they are.

What’s more impressive is Aunt Zhang Hong’s charm.

No need to say more, given the other party’s dedication, Song Tan made a quick decision: "I’ll ask Seventh Uncle, see if he can make some snacks for everyone."

...

But this request really stumped Seventh Uncle for a while.

"The things we usually eat and like aren’t suitable."

Fried soybeans make people gassy, imagine extending a tender little hand of affection and then—pssht—how inelegant.

Rice sticks are dry, making your mouth peel easily.

Especially their rice sticks, once you start, you can’t stop, and Lao Song’s family has peeled their lips countless times.

Finally, there’s puffed rice—

If people eat this, how can they objectively judge our canteen’s skills?

Song Tan: "..." Oh, right.

They are hosting a matchmaking event for employees, they can’t commit food fraud. Eating and drinking should be left to Master Jiang to handle.

After all, he’s a seasoned hotel chef, he should have plenty of experience with this.

It’s just as well she gave up on the idea, because as soon as she explained it to Master Jiang, he was already prepared.

Aunt Zhang Hong reminded repeatedly: "That day, tell your family to help cover for the security work."

"I’ll arrange for their training or something, it has to be impressive when everyone is there."

"The usual tea and white fungus soup can still be provided by the canteen, but don’t serve other delicacies, otherwise everyone will be too focused on eating and forget to chat."

"As for the melons to take away when leaving..."

Aunt Zhang Hong hesitated: "Could they pair up and pick them from the field while chatting?"

Just two sweet melons, twist and they’re off, Aunt Zhang Hong doesn’t miss even this small chance, no wonder she’s so successful in what she does!

Skill!

It’s all skill!

She also mentioned: "Where did you buy your wire fences? They look good quality, are they expensive?"

Then, without waiting for Song Tan to ask, she continued: "I think with the fertile land in our village, we shouldn’t waste the mountain spring water. Next year we should harvest more soybeans in the village."

But everyone makes good money growing vegetables, they might not want to grow more, if we can’t supply enough soybeans, what about the fluctuating quality, how will that go?
