On August 16, at Runzhiduo Supermarket in Wujie Town, Tongzhou District, Nantong City, Bian Qingcheng, a resident of Laomuchang Village, Wujie Town, Tongzhou District, who had just finished shopping, said happily: "I didn't expect that I could get a discount with my veteran ID." It is understood that there are 82 military-supporting stores like Runzhiduo Supermarket in Wujie Town, and they are competing to support the military with their actions.
In order to actively respond to the call of the Party and the State to support the military, care for the families of soldiers, support the government and love the people, conscientiously implement the "Law on the Status and Rights Protection of Military Personnel" and the "Law on the Protection of Veterans" and other laws and regulations, create a strong atmosphere of patriotism, support for the military and respect for soldiers in the whole society, and make soldiers a profession respected by the whole society, on January 26, 2022, the Wujie Town Veterans Service Station awarded the "Double Support Demonstration Store" to 8 caring enterprises including Wanjiahong Supermarket, Shunyi Bakery, Nantong Peak Sports Development Co., Ltd., Mancang Restaurant, Laowei Restaurant, Runzhiduo Supermarket, China National Offshore Oil Corporation (Yanjiang Highway Gas Station), and China National Offshore Oil Corporation (Pingwu Road Gas Station) in Wujie Town, Tongzhou District.

After the eight "Double Support Demonstration Stores" were listed, many shops and businesses actively signed up to apply, and a wave of social support for the military was set off in the town.

He said: "As a retired soldier and a businessman, I consider it my honor to be a 'double support demonstration store' and to serve active and retired soldiers. In the future, all active or retired soldiers who come to our store will enjoy discounts."
