Cultivation of true medicine and saints in the city

Chapter 149
This metaphor is simple and clear, and Zhao Yifan and Kang Yingying understood it immediately.

"I didn't expect it to be so troublesome to donate."

Kang Yingying's pretty face was full of regret.

Zhao Yifan shook his head, "Don't do good because it's small, and don't do evil because it's small! If you want to donate, we can donate ourselves. Why should we care about other people's opinions?"

"Mr. Zhao, what do you mean by not...?"

Qiu Zhendong was taken aback.

Zhang Ying rolled his eyes at him angrily, and said, "Old Qiu, you really should study hard. You don't understand anything except making money every day." She explained the meaning of this sentence to Qiu Zhendong.

After listening, Qiu Zhendong smiled disapprovingly.

"Everyone."

On the stage set up at the front of the hall, Lin Jie walked up with the microphone. As soon as he spoke, everyone stopped and listened to him.

"First of all, on behalf of Outstanding International Group, I would like to welcome you all..."

With a confident and hearty smile, Lin Jie stood on the stage and talked eloquently, "...tonight's charity party, all friends are welcome to come and join us. We will set up a separate account for the donations raised this time. The disbursement of money is absolutely transparent, everyone is welcome to check, and finally, I hope that the friends who are here today can dedicate their love to help those poor children!" He walked down.

Then, the big screen on the wall lit up and played a video that lasted about five or six minutes.

In the video, I saw those children wearing old and patched clothes, climbing over the hundreds of meters high iron chain bridge built with only two iron cables.

Every time you take a step, the chain bridge sways, making everyone's hearts rise to their throats...

There are also children who live on the mountain and climb up and down the mountain every day, almost vertical ninety-degree stone steps...

"Fan, Brother Fan!"

Seeing these videos, Kang Yingying's beautiful eyes turned red, she wiped the corners of her eyes, and said in a low voice: "These children are really pitiful, I want to help them."

"Well, it's really not easy."

Zhao Yifan nodded. He used to live on the mountain with his master Li Xiao, so he can understand more deeply the difficulties of the children living on the mountain in the video.Of course, he also knew that the images played on the screen had been edited to enhance the rendering effect.

However, this is also as it should be.

It seems that it is not so easy to get everyone to donate generously and donate money just by just a few indifferent words without arousing everyone's compassion.

After the video was played, a young man in a suit and leather shoes with a smile on his face walked up to the stage with a small hammer, held his headset, and said with a smile, "Hi everyone, I am the auctioneer at today's charity gala. Everyone here must have understood the rules of our auction today. But I have to explain it briefly, otherwise, I will feel sorry for the role of the auctioneer."

There was a burst of light laughter from everyone in the audience.

"Today's auction rules are very simple. Anyone can take out an item, indicate the reserve price, hand it over to the on-site staff, and then bid freely. The charity account informs you, please remit the donation to the charity account within two days."

After the auctioneer said briefly, he said with a smile: "Everyone here today is a person of status, so I believe that no one will do malicious bidding and not pay the money after the successful bid. So I also Without further ado, I am announcing the first auction item now."

A tall and tall hostess lady in a red cheongsam came up from the stage, holding a tray with a dark green emerald finger wrench on it.

At this time, many staff members put a number plate on each table in an orderly manner. If someone calls for a price, they need to raise the number plate and quote the price.

"Everyone, this emerald finger ring was generously sponsored by Mr. Wei Xiuwen from Poly Group in Tiannan Province. The base price is 100 million Huaxia coins, and the bid for each auction must not be less than 1 yuan."

The auctioneer smiled and held up the emerald finger: "All caring people, please bid."

The venue suddenly fell into silence.

"110."

A voice sounded, and the lighting engineer cooperated with lighting the first bidder, who was a middle-aged man.

"That's the boss of Longteng Company."

Qiu Zhendong recognized it at a glance, and couldn't help but said: "Tiannan Provincial Poly Group? It seems to be in the real estate business. It is said that Longteng Company has also started to try real estate in the past few years... I see, I see! "He suddenly realized.

"President Qiu, what are you talking about?"

Kang Yingying couldn't help asking.

"Hehe, why is this jade wrench worth so much money?"

Qiu Zhendong smiled, with an attitude of understanding, and said: "The boss of Longteng Company wants to enter the real estate market, and the appearance of the Poly Group here today must also be aimed at the market in Kyoto City. The two intend to join forces, so the boss of Longteng Company will use this method to show his favor! Otherwise, unless he is crazy, he will spend more than 100 million to buy this thing."

It seemed like what Qiu Zhendong said, except for the boss of Longteng Company, no one bid for this jade ring.

"……the third time!"

The auctioneer tapped the table symbolically with a small hammer in his hand, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to this gentleman, you have won the first place and donated 110 million yuan to charities in poverty-stricken counties. After the auction, please go to the office next to the hall. Receive this emerald finger wrench you photographed."

The hostess lady came over and took off the jade wrench, and then put another item on it. It was a beautifully crafted lady's watch, but the style seemed to be old.

"Can this old style of watch be put up for auction?"

Kang Yingying couldn't help muttering.

"I guess, this watch is nothing, but the owner of this watch must be unusual."

Qiu Zhendong said very confidently: "If you don't believe me, just wait and see."

The auctioneer introduced: "This watch is a gift from Lin Qiaoxia, president of Jinding Group, on his birthday. For charity, he specially put it up for auction today to contribute to charity. The base price of this watch auction is It is 1 Huaxia coins, and each increase cannot be less than [-] yuan."

"Look, I was right."

Qiu Zhendong was a little proud, and said, "I knew the owner of this watch must be extraordinary."

Someone raised a sign: "One hundred thousand."

As soon as the voice fell, someone at another table raised a placard: "15."

Compared with the first piece of jade ring finger, the bidding for this second auctioned watch is much more intense.

"Old Qiu."

Zhang Ying tugged at Qiu Zhendong, "Aren't you calling the price?"

"……50!"

At this time, someone had already called for a price of 50 yuan.

Qiu Zhendong said with a wry smile: "Honey, I advise you to stop shouting, Mr. Lin of Jinding Group, I don't know how many people have shown favor to her, plus you want to cooperate with Jinding Group, you just shout at most, it's very difficult It will soon be overtaken.”

"Then I'll yell too."

Zhang Ying curled her lips and picked up the number plate on the table: "60!"

"63 million!"

Sure enough, just like what Qiu Zhendong said, before Zhang Ying finished speaking, someone else surpassed her immediately.

Seeing that Zhang Ying seemed a little unconvinced, Qiu Zhendong was about to shout, but he quickly grabbed her in fright, and said in a low voice: "Honey, don't shout, you won't really spend 100 million yuan to buy a watch and come back." Bar?"

Zhang Ying thought for a while, and reluctantly put down the number plate. She knew in her heart that Qiu Zhendong's net worth was only tens of millions, and spending one-tenth of his net worth on a useless watch was indeed not what a sensible person would do. .

"President Qiu."

Kang Yingying said in a low voice: "If you take a picture, you can also have a good relationship with Mr. Lin of Jinding Group? Just like the boss of Longteng Company and Poly Group just now."

Qiu Zhendong blushed slightly, coughed dryly, and said: "Yingying, my little assets, to put it bluntly, are not farts in the eyes of others, as if I want to cooperate with them, and I don't have that much strength !"

Zhao Yifan sighed. Lin Jie's original intention of holding this charity party was good, but it was used by Qiu Zhendong and other businessmen as a means to get closer, cooperate and trade, and show favor to each other.

The use of the world is for profit, and the prosperity of the world is for profit!

In this world of mortals, in the vast world, will such things be rare?
In everything, just ask for a clear conscience.

Zhao Yifan smiled lightly.

Jinding Group is a listed company with tens of billions of assets and a lot of business. There are not a few people who want to please Lin Qiaoxia. After more than ten rounds of bidding, everyone forced this watch to a price of 90!

And this watch itself is only 3 to [-] yuan.

"100 million!"

A clear and slightly icy voice sounded.

Everyone followed the voice and were stunned. The bidder turned out to be Lin Qiaoxia herself.

Her delicate willow eyebrows frowned slightly. For the watch she took out, she originally thought that it would be enough to buy two to three million yuan. Once it was too much, it would be a troublesome thing for her.

Moreover, Lin Qiaoxia knows the person who is now asking for 90 yuan. He is a young man who has been pursuing her. She has no interest in this person, and she also knows that his purpose of buying this watch is nothing more than to please herself. .

Instead of this, it's better to take it back by yourself.

"110 million!"

Lin Qiaoxia's suitor came back to his senses and added another [-] with a smile.

"150 million!"

Lin Qiaoxia's pretty face sank, she glanced at the other party displeased, and said softly: "Young Master Chen, this watch means a lot to me, so I don't intend to bear the pain and give up."

"Ok."

The young man called Young Master Chen rubbed his nose, gave a dry laugh, and said embarrassingly, "Boss Lin's enthusiasm for charity makes me admire."

"Thank you Mr. Lin for donating 150 million yuan."

The auctioneer smiled and asked Miss Manners to take down the watch and return it to Lin Qiaoxia.

Immediately, his eyes fell on everyone, and the auctioneer said: "Everyone, the free auction time is now coming. Those who want to donate to charity can hand over the auction items to our staff."

There was a sudden silence in the venue, and everyone was thinking about whether to participate.

The first two auction items both raised more than 100 million yuan for charity. If you take an item up for auction, you only get tens of thousands of yuan, isn't it a bit too little?
