Chapter 215: Chapter 164: Closing a Big Deal_2
The small restaurants outside are all privately owned, not only are they small in scale, but even their tableware, tables, chairs, stools, and so on, all seem to be second-hand goods found from who knows where, worn and old. They’ve been there before, and compared to their State-owned Restaurant, the difference is more than a little.
So generally speaking, the people who come to the State-owned Restaurant to eat, aside from discussing business, are usually handling serious matters, or perhaps discussing marriage arrangements for their children and such.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t spend such a high price to dine at their restaurant.
But Jiang Xin is different. She comes to their restaurant to eat almost every day, and each time she orders takeout to bring home.
It’s obvious that she’s truly wealthy and can afford to dine at their restaurant.
Moreover, every meal she orders is a substantial dish, the kind with meat in every dish, which is exceptionally extravagant.
Yet the waiter couldn’t ask too many questions.
Even though he was a bit curious about Jiang Xin’s background, he was merely a small employee and couldn’t inquire into the customer’s privacy; doing so would be terribly presumptuous.
After all, keeping such a big customer to bring more revenue to their restaurant is always a good thing.
Besides, this waiter had seen a bit of the world; he wasn’t so unworldly. After the initial surprise of seeing Jiang Xin hand over a disposable takeout container, he handled each subsequent instance quite normally.
After all, their restaurant didn’t provide containers, and it was rare for people to order takeout.
So, people like Jiang Xin, who brought their own containers, weren’t unheard of, though disposable takeout boxes were less common. Generally, others wouldn’t choose to use these, since they cost money. If you used an aluminum lunchbox, it could be reused multiple times, washed, and ready for the next meal.
However, disposable boxes seemed a bit wasteful, since they could only be used once and would be discarded after that. Although convenient, they were indeed bought with money.
The waiter felt a little regret, glancing down at the disposable container, thinking that maybe he could mention it to their manager, if the price was reasonable.
He could ask Jiang Xin where she got her disposable takeout boxes from.
If the price were low, perhaps their State-owned Restaurant could purchase a batch.
After all, the portions at their restaurant were not only large, but many people, wanting to show off, ordered excessive amounts; they couldn’t finish the meal and it ended up wasted.
Some frugal families, after having their meal, couldn’t bear to throw away the table full of good food, so they asked for it to be packed.
But since they didn’t have containers like that available, they usually handed the customers a few plastic bags to put the leftovers in and carry home.
That approach was lacking sophistication; if there were takeout boxes, placing the food in them would look classier.
However, now wasn’t the time to talk about this, as the waiter knew what was important and critical.
The most urgent task now was to quickly Jiang Xin’s order to the kitchen and have the chef prepare it as fast as possible.
After all, this young lady came to buy meals every day, so there was no rush to take immediate action, and he could bring it up with the manager later.
If possible, he could ask Jiang Xin, and it wouldn’t be a problem.
Jiang Xin was still unaware that by bringing her takeout box to the State-owned Restaurant every day, she could facilitate a major deal.
After all, she had all kinds of packaging in her space, even paper boxes. If the State-owned Restaurant wanted them, she could supply a batch to them.
