Ruyue said: "Of course not. The purpose of the banquet is very simple. Recently, the All-China Women's Federation has advocated the establishment of women's and children's foundations across the country to specifically seek benefits for poor women and children everywhere. However, you also know that in our Yanhuang Republic , there are too many cities, not counting those small cities, there are thousands or more. If a women's and children's foundation is established in every city, it will obviously be a huge expense. And the state will pay a large part of this expense, and the rest It’s up to us women.”
Qi Yue chuckled and said: "It turns out that this is to raise funds for charity. We must support this." He was born in an orphanage and absolutely supports this kind of charity. If it weren't for the orphanage run by the state, he might have already... Thinking of this, Qi Yue couldn't help but think of the parents he saw in Xuanyuan Hun's vision, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Ruyue is very sensitive, especially Qi Yue, who occupies an extremely important position in her heart. Naturally, she noticed the change in Qi Yue's face and couldn't help asking: "What's wrong? You seem a little unhappy."
Qi Yue forced a smile, shook his head, and said: "It's nothing. However, when I go back, I want to ask you for a favor." He knew very well that everything he saw in the illusion of Xuanyuan Soul was from his childhood. What he saw at that time was just the memories in his mind that were mobilized by Xuanyuan Soul using his special ability. Although it has no practical significance, it still lets him know. He was not abandoned by his parents. He also knew that his father was also an entrepreneur, and his surname was Qi. The range was relatively smaller. Now that he had clues, why wouldn't he want to look for them
"Qi Yue, you may have to dance after the auction. Can you?" Ru Yue asked with a smile.
Qi Yue smiled bitterly and said: "Do you think I can do it?"
Ruyue raised her eyebrows, "Then do you want it or not?"
Qi Yue said solemnly: "Yes, of course, I will dance with you alone. Just dance, I am your man."
At this time, the chairman of the All-China Women's Federation on the stage had already spoken again, "First of all, I would like to thank everyone for coming to this banquet today. I am not representing myself or the All-China Women's Federation, but I am representing those women and women who are suffering. Children. As we all know..." the Women's Federation Chairman said with great emotion. The audience was very quiet at this time. Everyone's eyes completely stopped on her, and the wine glasses in their hands unconsciously put down...
"...I won't say much else. Those who can be present today are all the leaders among the women of our Yanhuang Republic. I hope that everyone can lend a helping hand and give some help to those sisters and children. I am here to represent them and express my sincere wishes to everyone. My sincerest thanks.”
Thunderous applause resounded throughout the banquet. Although there were some people with disapproval in their eyes, most of the women present. They all showed sincere and eager eyes.
As he spoke, the Chairman of the Women's Federation stood a few steps aside, and a master of ceremonies walked up. Although his appearance was ordinary, he looked refreshing.
"Thank you to Chairman Li of our Women's Federation for his speech. Chairman Li has worked hard to organize this banquet today. Here, I would like to express my deepest respect to Chairman Li and all the guests present at the venue." The emcee took a step back and bowed solemnly to the audience.
Smiling slightly, Qi Yue showed a faint light in his eyes, and asked Ru Yue in a low voice: "How much money are you going to donate?"
Ruyue said: "Probably around 10 million. It's hard to say. The donation process for this reception is not simple, but in the form of an auction. We can just randomly select a few high-priced collections. .”
"Auction?" Hearing these two words, Qi Yue couldn't help but feel curious. This was his first time to participate in an auction. Although it was not very formal, it was at least a simple auction.
The emcee on the stage said: "Our staff will give each of the women present a number. The charity auction party we are holding today for the Women and Children's Foundation will begin immediately."
As he spoke, staff members had already started issuing license plates. At the same time, a cart was pushed up from behind the rostrum. The cart was covered with red velvet. It was obviously holding today's auction items, at least. is a.
The number plate Ruyue got was No. 62. She pulled Qi Yue to an inconspicuous place aside, picked up a drink and handed it over, "Qi Yue, you seem to be very interested in this auction. "
Qi Yue nodded and said: "Ruyue, can I ask you something?"
Ruyue smiled slightly and said: "Do we still need to talk about begging for this Yu? I and myself are yours. Just say it, as long as I can do it."
Qi Yue lowered his head, thought for a while, and then said: "I want you to donate more money, okay? Even if I borrow it for you, I think I will be able to pay it back within a year at most."
Ruyue seemed to have just met Qi Yue. She looked at him in surprise and said: "I didn't expect you to be so kind."
Qi Yue said calmly: "Have you forgotten my origin? I was originally an orphan. If it weren't for those rescue organizations, I would not be where I am now. I just have this opportunity today, and I want to take this opportunity to express some My respect for the country and my heart goes out to those who are still suffering.”
Ruyue smiled and said: "Of course I support you when you do good deeds. For this simple matter, our Longyu Group still has some money, no problem. I will donate it in your name."
Qi Yue shook his head and said: "No, just in the name of Longyu Group. Although I also have a card given by Mingming's father. I can withdraw a certain amount of cash every day, but I don't want to use the country's money for this matter. I will really pay you back, I’m not kidding.”
Seeing his serious look, Ruyue couldn't help but be a little surprised, "No need. I said, I belong to you, do I still care about the money?"
Qi Yue said: "No, this is not a matter of money. I am a man! I can't always spend your money. Don't worry, I have a very good plan. If it goes well, maybe it will happen soon. . I can also become a rich man. I will tell you when I get back."
Ruyue looked at Qi Yue and said: "When you come back this time, you seem to have changed a bit. The ruffian's aura is not as strong as before. You seem to have grown a lot."
Qi Yue secretly thought in his heart, if a person has experienced many times of wandering on the edge of life and death, he will grow up. Although he thought so in his heart, he said: "Then you like me now. Or do you like me before?" And me?"
Kisaragi smiled slightly. He tilted his head and looked at him and said, "What do you think?"
Qi Yue moved his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Of course I like them all."
Ruyue said: "The auction is about to start. How much are you going to let me spend? Our future millionaire."
Qi Yue's eyes flashed. Said: "I want you to take pictures of all the auction items today. How much do you estimate it will cost?"
Ruyue was shocked. She obviously did not expect Qi Yue's determination to be so strong. Although she felt that he was a little impulsive, she finally got her lover back. How could she have the heart to refuse his first request? He nodded and said: "No matter what, I will support you. I have inquired before. I estimate that the total value of today's auction items is about 20 million yuan. However, you also know that this is a charity auction. I estimate that the auction items worth 20 million yuan would need an auction value of about 100 million yuan to be auctioned conservatively."
"One hundred million, so much?" Qi Yue looked at Ru Yue in surprise.
Ruyue nodded and said: "It does require that much. This is still my conservative estimate."
Qi Yue thought for a while and said: "Okay. Then can you lend me two hundred million."
Ruyue was shocked, and secretly calculated the current cash flow of Longyu Group. After a moment of hesitation, she said, "Okay. Then I will lend you 200 million."
Qi Yue smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, dear wife, I won't let your money go in vain. I said, I will definitely pay it back to you within a year. I heard that borrowing money requires a mortgage , I think it’s better to mortgage me to you. You can use it 24 hours a day or night. It’s high quality and cheap.”
"Bah." Ru Yueqian blushed and said, "You bastard! Did you even sell yourself?" Although she said this, she secretly thought in her heart, Qi Yue, you fool, you are a fool to me. In my heart, how can your value be compared to two hundred million
Qi Yue smiled and said: "It's different when you have money! I feel a lot more confident now."
At this moment, the auction was about to start. The emcee on the stage first greeted the guests below and then smiled and said: "Today's auction has officially begun. I also hope that all the female business elites present can contribute more to our charity." A bit of my own strength.”
"Wait a minute." Just as the emcee was about to introduce the first auction item of the day, a voice suddenly interrupted her.
All the guests' eyes were focused on the direction of the sound. They saw an ordinary-looking but very tall man slowly walking towards the rostrum. Although he did not look handsome enough, but... As he slowly advanced, the noble temperament he exuded invisibly made it impossible for anyone to underestimate this man who suddenly appeared. You must know that women are the protagonists of today's auction. The sudden appearance of such a man interrupted the auction, which immediately made the guests present feel a little dissatisfied in their surprise.
The emcee frowned slightly, but her professionalism made her return to normal immediately. She smiled and said, "Sir, what can I do for you?"
The person who suddenly stopped the auction was Qi Yue. Qi Yue had already walked to the podium at this time, smiled slightly, and said: "Yes, of course I have something to do. I would like to ask, before the auction starts, , can I donate an item to the auction?”
Hearing what he said, the emcee suddenly showed a sweet smile and said: "Of course, thank you very much for your generosity, sir. I wonder what you want to donate to the organizing committee?"
Qi Yue took out something from his arms and slowly handed it to the emcee. The emcee took it and saw a small box carved from wood that looked like a jewelry box. The carvings are very exquisite. Although the texture is just wood, there are patterns of the sun, moon and stars on this small box. In the center of the front of the box, there is a unicorn with its feet on the auspicious clouds. It looks very delicate and even more impressive. What was strange to the emcee was that the box gave her a very weird feeling, and she couldn't even identify what kind of wood the box was carved from. Although she is just the emcee, in order to make the charity auction held by the All-China Women's Federation more professional, the emcee hired is a very famous auctioneer in the auction world. Her vision is very unique, but she is still unrecognizable. What kind of wood is this
Qi Yue smiled slightly and said: "What I want to donate is a jade ring. I don't know, can I put a reserve price on it? Then, this ring will belong to today's auction."
The emcee glanced at the Chairman of the All-China Women's Federation who was sitting on the rostrum next to him inquiringly. The Chairman of the Women's Federation nodded slightly and said: "Thank you very much for your support of our charity reception, sir. Please mark a minimum price. If in the end this If a ring fails to be auctioned, we will return it to you."
Qi Yue smiled calmly and said: "I can guarantee that it will never leak. As for the base price, let's mark it at 50 million yuan."
As soon as this statement came out, the guests below immediately made a sound of surprise. What kind of ring can be worth 50 million yuan? If it is a super large diamond ring, although this wooden box is exquisite, it is a bit too shabby.
The master of ceremonies looked at Qi Yue in surprise and said, "Sir, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
Qi Yue nodded solemnly and said: "Of course I'm right, it's 50 million, not 5,000, and it's in RMB."
The host said suspiciously: "Sir, I haven't heard of any ring that can reach such a high price. Looking at your box, even if it is a diamond ring, it must not be too big. If it is the most precious pink diamond, It’s not worth the price! Can I open it and take a look?”
Qi Yue shook his head and said: "No need. Wait until it is auctioned, then open the box. I can only guarantee you that it will never fail to auction."
