Knowing she was going on a blind date, they immediately found the matchmaker and snatched her away.
"Intercepted? Boss Xia, how did you intercept him?" Yang Yajing interjected upon hearing this, "Did you just ruin the blind date and steal him away?"
"Do you think I'm the kind of person who uses such robber logic?" Xia Changlong glared at Yang Yajing. "Of course I'd throw money at them!"
It was called throwing money around, but in retrospect, it wasn't actually much money. But back then, Xia Changlong took out all the money he had saved over the years—several hundred yuan—from his New Year's money and threw the banknotes directly in front of the introducer.
He said domineeringly, "Replace the person with me! Say whatever sounds nice! If it works, all the money is yours! If you're incompetent, you won't get a penny, and I'll find someone else!"
A few hundred dollars is just a meal now, but in 1972, it was a lot of money that a family could only earn in a year!

However, Xia Changlong wasn't lying, because from the perspective of that time, he really was a handsome guy.
He's 1.8 meters tall, with bright, piercing eyes that exude righteousness; girls would all fall for him.
"So you got married?"
"We're not old enough yet, so let's get engaged first and have a free-choice relationship. We'll get our marriage certificate when we're 23." After saying that, Xia Changlong opened his leather jacket and showed off his wedding photo.
"Hahaha! Wearing a military uniform to your wedding? How tacky!" Yang Yajing laughed heartily.
"That's how it was back then! Look closely, aren't the men handsome and the women beautiful?"
"Show-off! But it's actually not bad!" Yang Yajing agreed.
