Chapter 54 part1
I will stroke it for you
They had not yet applied for the Star Alliance assessment. When the staff at Yunbao Branch learned about this matter, their opinions were very unified.
Apply, ah! Of course, they had to apply.
Even if their club did not make it onto the list this time, at least they would have gotten some experience and next time they would be better able to handle this on-site assessment.
In order to apply for it, their qualifications first needed to be confirmed by audit. After a club presented the information showing them to be qualified, they would permanently retain the right to apply for the assessment.
Yunbao Branch had never before been audited. So to apply for the Star Alliance assessment, Xia Qi first summited all the information about their club through the starnet and awaited approval.
To give more clubs the opportunity to participate in the Star Alliance assessment, the standard of the audit had been deliberately lowered. In theory, with Yunbao Branch’s current conditions, they should have no problem passing the audit.
However, Xia Qi was still a little nervous. After submitting the data, she periodically checked the starnet for the results.
The audit was pending for nearly two days. Xia Qi had begun to feel quite anxious when she checked the page and at last saw the bright red “pass” sign.
“Passed, we passed!” Although they had only earned the right to apply, Xia Qi’s face was still full of joy and she immediately shared the news with the other members of the club.
In less than half a year the club had gone from being in a terribly shabby and worn-out state into how it was today, Xia Qi was both proud and happy.
Hearing the good news, there was a trace of a smile on everyone’s faces.
Having earned the right to apply meant that the Star Alliance had acknowledged that their club measured up to their standard, there was no caretaker in the interstellar who didn’t know this.
Therefore, to a certain extent, whether their club passed the audit or not decided if they could hold their heads high when facing their peers.
The Star Alliance would not open the acceptance of applications until two months later, and the actual time for the field assessment was still some time away after that. During this period, all the clubs were busy making preparations.
Regardless of whether it was renovations or the construction of facilities, etc, every club spared no effort to add points to the assessment.
Even if it hadn’t been for the assessment, Xie Tao still planned to once more recruit some new employees, such as a dietitian who specializes in customizing nutritional recipes for cubs as well as a doctor and a logistician.
The club’s cub rations and milk powder had since long been replaced by several comparably high rated brands in the interstellar. Xie Tao observed the cubs’ reactions when feeding them and had noted down the different preferences of each cub. He had then let the other caretakers prepare the food according to the preferences of the cubs.
Food rations and milk powder were the most common food for cubs, but such food was very monotonous. Several good nursing clubs would therefore hire one to two nutritionists to customize multiple nutrition meals for the cubs.
Of course, there was also the matter regarding the fighting instructor. Initially, Xie Tao had just intended for Zarad to be a temporary mentor. But at this time, Xie Tao felt that the other had accomplished the task very well and decided to entrust the work to him.
Having watched Zarad teach the cubs basic combat and patiently instruct the mermaid in how to use his ability better, Xie Tao thought that it would be a waste to let the other go back to being a guard like before.
Under the guidance of the other, the cubs in the club had in the end learned a lot. It was quite reasonable to let the temporary tutor become the permanent fighting instructor.
As for whether the other would leave after one year’s work as per the agreement, this matter was a discussion for a later time.
