Chapter 344: Chapter 344 Leave Conditions

Huo Shiqian looked at his immediate superior and said, "Isn’t that what you wanted to hear?"

Old Commander: ...

Huo Family kid, you’re really not cute at all!

"Cough, cough, you’re not getting any younger, and speaking of finding a wife, our military fully supports that, fully supports it!" The previously irate commander suddenly became exceedingly pleasant.

"As for the vacation, I’ll approve one for you—one month! If one month isn’t enough, how about forty days?"

"Conditions?" Huo Shiqian was not fooled.

"Cough, cough, we have the Red-Blue military exercise coming up, and you need to earn enough face for me. As long as you earn enough face, once the exercise ends, I’ll approve your leave. How does that sound?" The old commander said these words cautiously, afraid his subordinate wouldn’t agree.

"Agreed," Huo Shiqian said calmly.

The little lady this time had had a close call, but he did not need to go immediately.

Besides, a bit of time to buffer was good, lest he saw her and immediately wanted to whisk her away to his side, to protect her well.

Seeing his agreement, the old commander added another sentence, "By the way, when you go back, visit Old Huo as well. How many years has it been since you went home? I count them on my fingers for Old Huo and can’t help but shed a few bitter tears for him!"

After a moment of thought, Huo Shiqian said, "I can do that."

He didn’t refuse.

As the old commander said, he hadn’t been home in many years and should pay a visit.

Not often so compliant, the old commander quickly excitedly added, "And it’s best to take your little wife with you!"

After a few seconds of silence, Huo Shiqian calmly said, "That will depend on her."

Old Commander: ...

Huo Family kid, you’ve got potential to be henpecked.

"Cough, cough, alright then, as you wish," the old commander said, "The Red-Blue exercise starts next week, and your leave is expected to be approved a week and a half later, any problems with that?"

"Agreed," Huo Shiqian nodded, indicating his agreement.

A week and a half was within his range of tolerance.

After a week and a half, he could finally see his little lady.

In the Capital City, inexplicably, Xia Chuyi sneezed.

"Hey, Chuyi, who do you think is thinking about you?" Qian Qianqian couldn’t help but ask curiously when she heard the sneeze.

Xia Chuyi: ... It’s just a cold, don’t be superstitious.

She casually took a mask and put it on, then said to Qian Qianqian, "In our foodservice industry, besides the taste of the food, the most crucial thing is hygiene."

"We must ensure every step of the process is hygienic so that the food made is especially delicious."

"Also, a clean and sanitary environment will increase people’s desire to purchase and taste."

Qian Qianqian, taking notes in her little notebook, said, "Chuyi, what you say makes a lot of sense."

"Speaking of delicious,"

"Ever since you left, I don’t know if it’s my imagination, but I’ve always felt that the braised dishes Xia Chengzong makes just aren’t as tasty as yours!"

"Is it a hygiene issue?"

Xia Chuyi: ... No, it’s because of the ingredients.

Previously, the ingredients she used had been purified in space, making them exceptionally tasty.

She thought for a moment and said, "Later on, I will see if there is a way to manage the ingredients uniformly."

As the business had grown, she couldn’t possibly use space ingredients for everything.

But the brining ingredients could indeed be purified.

After purifying the brining ingredients, she could pack them in small batches and send them back, ensuring that Youwei’s flavor would surely have an advantage over others in the market.
