Chapter 12 Charity Dinner
……

That evening, in a luxuriously decorated banquet hall, the charity dinner of the [-]th Huayang Chamber of Commerce was also held this evening.

And Li Yang's Li's Jewelry, as a new jewelry giant on Hong Kong Island, is naturally also invited.

"Good evening everyone and welcome everyone!"

"The Chamber of Commerce has not only been committed to the economic prosperity of Hong Kong Island over the years, but also tried its best to give back to the public."

"Therefore, this evening, the Chamber of Commerce will hold a charity auction, and the donations from the auction of all items will be used to rebuild the homes of people who were previously affected by the typhoon. the love of society.”

"The following is our first auction item tonight, a beautiful vase from the Qing Dynasty. The starting price is 5000 yuan."

On the podium, a sturdy bald man was using a non-standard hosting style to introduce the first auction item tonight.

And Li Yang, who had been in the corner of the back row, saw this and prepared to respond accordingly.

Because in this time and space on Hong Kong Island, in addition to gold, jewelry and jade, some valuable antiques are also the target of Li Yang.

Nowadays, because Li Yang has basically controlled the underground forces of the entire Hong Kong Island secretly, there is a lot of gray income every day.

In general, Li Yang now has a lot of money that he can splurge on Hong Kong Island in this era.

Since the black roulette wheel in his mind did not prompt him to return to his own modern time and space, Li Yang also began to learn to integrate himself into the Hong Kong Island of this era.

Soon, after the sturdy bald man who was the host on the podium announced the reserve price of this Qing Dynasty vase, a Chinese man with a goblet and a head of oil walked out of the crowd with a smile and said. Raised prices.

"1 yuan!"

In today's era, 1 yuan is at least a hundred times more than that of later generations.

In other words, 1 yuan in this era is equivalent to more than 100 million yuan in later generations.

"1 yuan."

With the first bid, there is immediately a second increase.

"1 yuan."

This is the price shouted by an old man who is held by a beautiful girl.

"2 yuan"

"2 yuan." Li Yang in the crowd also called for a price at this time.

Because Li Yang's body benefited from the transformation of the black disc, his learning ability in all aspects has been greatly enhanced, so during this time, Li Yang passed some bad supplements, and also gave his English, which originally only knew a few words. Barely made up.

Therefore, Li Yang can barely communicate in English now.

This also greatly helped Li Yang's integration into Hong Kong Island in this era.

Soon after Li Yang's bidding, other people present also felt that the price was about the same. If it was added, it would be a bit inflated, so they did not continue to increase the price for a while.

However, just when the sturdy bald man on the stage was about to drop the hammer, a voice instantly caught the attention of everyone in the audience.

"10 yuan!"

And Li Yang, who was in the crowd, followed everyone's gaze.

"The boss behind Changle!"

Yes, the person who increased the price by [-] is Cao Yanjun, the boss who has transformed Changle into a legitimate business.

Since Changle, which is in charge of Cao Yanjun, has been transformed, the dead man under Li Yang's secret control has not yet attacked Changle and the remaining power.

After all, for Li Yang, he let the dead men secretly control the underground forces of the entire Hong Kong Island, and the purpose is to make money.

At present, there is no conflict of interest between the dead men under his command and Changle, so naturally they will be at peace with each other.

However, if Li Yang continues to stay in this time and space on Hong Kong Island, the dead men under him will definitely swallow them one by one and turn to the forces like Changle that have begun to turn behind the scenes.

And at this moment, at the charity dinner.

Due to Cao Yanjun's price increase, the whole banquet was instantly pushed to a climax of discussion.

"Who is this person and why is she so rich? One hundred thousand is not a small sum. The price is far beyond the price of this antique vase itself."

However, the burly man who made the host didn't care about the whispers of these people.

"This lady bid 3, is there any higher bid? Now the countdown starts, 2, 1, [-] deal, congratulations to this lady for winning the first charity item of this dinner, the following is the generous owner The loving lady came to the stage to introduce herself."

So there was a round of applause.

And Cao Yanjun, who is graceful and luxurious, also walked slowly towards the front desk with a smile on his face.

"Thank you Huayang General Chamber of Commerce for giving me this opportunity!"

"I am very honored to represent Changle Company to send this love and blessing to the victims. I hope that the friends of the victims can rebuild their homes and start a new life as soon as possible. At the same time, I also hope that everyone here can donate generously and show their uniqueness. strength and love.”

However, just as Cao Yanjun on the stage was talking, a well-dressed man suddenly stood up and said loudly with a straight face.

"As far as I know, your Changle Company used to be a black and absurd society. Don't you think it's ridiculous that you use this black money for charity?"

"Yes, everyone knows the background of your Changle company. If people know that our chamber of commerce actually uses black money for charity, wouldn't the outside world think that we are in the same boat with HEI!"

These self-talking celebrity businessmen present may have seen Cao Yanjun stealing their limelight so generously, so at this moment, seeing someone stand up first to raise issues, they immediately began to fall into the trap.

Sure enough, along with these people's provocation, an Englishman present also said with a displeased face.

"Our Chamber of Commerce cannot accept money from HEI Road for charity, which will have a very serious impact on the reputation of our Chamber of Commerce."

"You, please go out, you are not welcome here..."

"Yes! Please go out. We are here for a charity dinner for serious businessmen. We can't let HEI influence our chamber of commerce."

On the podium, listening to the taunts of these celebrities in the crowd below, Cao Yanjun's mood became extremely bad, but she still kept a smile on her face.

It's just that this smile is a little stiff and unnatural no matter how you look at it.

At this time, the strong British man who was the host saw this scene and hurriedly stopped.

"Everyone, please be quiet first."

I saw this strong man came to Cao Yanjun's side and whispered to her.

"Sorry, lady, our chamber of commerce is a whole after all, and you have seen the current situation, if you continue to stay, it will only embarrass you and us, so your kindness, our chamber of commerce can only take heart already."

Hearing this, Cao Yanjun on stage naturally knew what to do.

"I know that my past may not be glorious, but all of you here should ask yourselves, you rob and do nothing, so there is no difference between you and me at all. Now the reason why you can stand tall and sound Here, you all learned to lie!" Cao Yanjun sneered when he said that, then turned around and walked towards the gate of the banquet.
