Infinite Begins with Giants

Chapter 295 Charity Gala
Sighing, Suzanne didn't dwell on the topic too much, she moved her lips: "Tonight, the mayor, Mr. Lawrence, will hold a charity party outside the city hall to raise money for the refugees.

There will be many rich and famous people from Dilamo City participating, and our company has already received the invitation letter. "

"The charity party? Can I not go?" Ren said with a look of disgust.

It's not that he hates charity, it's that he hates the atmosphere of the banquet. Mrs. Ellie invited him there last time, and he was really tired.

No matter what you think in your heart, you have to smile, talk about unnutritious topics, and pay attention to whether your words and deeds are appropriate all the time.

That's all, those noble names are stinky and long, you can't call them wrong, otherwise you will offend people and be ridiculed.

Don't have too many rules, especially those aristocrats and celebrities, who always have an inexplicable sense of superiority, and look down on upstarts like him.

Susanna pursed her lips and said with a smile: "No, our company has several vacancies, and we must send someone there."

"Forced?" Ren asked suspiciously.

He felt something was wrong, maybe forcing them to donate money, to be honest, he didn't want to give a single copper coin.

Susanna shook her head slightly, and said helplessly, "It's a strong request, let Jenny explain the specific situation."

Jenny was wearing a lady's uniform, holding a goblet, and said softly: "Boss, it's like this, this charity party will be held in the form of an auction, and all the money raised will be used to buy food and other daily necessities... "

The specific situation is that the city hall will take out a batch of works of art that are not too high in value, and use the market valuation of the items as the reserve price for the participants to auction.

In other words, the prices of those works of art after auction will definitely be higher than the market valuation, which means that the city hall has a sum of money to relieve refugees.

Ren frowned after hearing this: "That is to say, we are going to be taken advantage of and slaughtered?"

Antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times, the wave period has arrived. It can be predicted that all works of art will depreciate in value, or they may not be sold at all. The city hall can be said to have played a good hand.

Jenny raised her hand lightly, and pouted: "More than that, there are unspoken rules in the auction, and the transaction must be 1.5 times higher than the reserve price!"

Ren was dumbfounded when he heard that, damn it, this is comparable to a white wolf with empty gloves.

For example, if a famous painting is valued at 50 gold coins in the market, the auctioneer participating in the charity party must spend at least 75 gold coins to buy it.

If the city hall intends to take out 1 gold coins to relieve the poorest refugees who are about to eat soil, it will immediately become more than 1.5 gold coins.

"Tsk tsk, it's amazing. A batch of rags that are about to be worthless are exchanged for gold. No wonder they want to do charity." Ren sighed, this is called a routine.

In fact, this is not surprising, and some charity galas directly ask for donations, not to mention, in some countries on the planet, charitable donations are tax deductible.

Otherwise, why would those rich people be so active in donating money? Instead of paying taxes to the country, it is better to donate, and in exchange for the name of a philanthropist and social caring person who is enthusiastic about public welfare.

By the way, ease the envy, jealousy and hatred of the rich and the hatred of ordinary civilians.

Regardless of whether Ren is happy or not, this matter has been settled, and he has to go. He knows that many people are jealous of the business in the Sunshine Community.

Including many social celebrities, they all think that he is a lucky speculator, an upstart who got lucky.

If he doesn't go, these people will casually incite him, saying that he is cold-blooded, selfish, and has no sense of social responsibility, and maybe the public opinion will target Thorn Security Company.

Thinking of this, Ren was a little depressed. This is the world of adults, full of routines.

Looking at the fiery red sunset in the sky, he shouted to Garcia and the others:
"You little bastards, stop making trouble, listen to me, and hurry up to tidy up your appearance.

Wash white, get dressed and tie, and go to the charity gala. "

The people who were frolicking were taken aback for a moment, and after asking, they learned the specific situation.

"Damn, isn't this stealing money? I can't appreciate that kind of shit art." Sig said with a displeased face.

Wen Xi grunted and said very frankly, "I don't want to donate."

With a cold snort, Ren curled his lips: "Don't even think about running away, this time I'll take you bunch of turkeys to see the world and see what high society is.

Don't worry, our company has two indicators. I will take two pieces of broken copper and iron, and I won't spend your money. "

"Yeah, thanks boss!"

Hearing that there was no need to pay, Garcia and Wenxi immediately smiled and prepared to change their clothes.

They are still happy to go to the banquet to eat and drink for free.

Upon seeing this, Renn warned: "Remember, you have to wear formal clothes, don't wear jeans and short sleeves.

Especially you, Wenxi, you are not allowed to wear slippers, and don’t talk loudly when you go there.”

There are many rules and regulations in the banquet of the upper class, so don't be too self-righteous.If you are unconventional and unique, people will not think you have individuality, but will only make people despise and ridicule you.

Personable, well-behaved, humorous conversation, this will be popular.

Like the kind of casual clothes, slippers, and go there without looking clean, unless you are Long Aotian, you may not even be able to enter the door.

Wen Xi scratched his head and asked naively: "Boss, what if someone strikes up a conversation with me?"

The corner of his mouth twitched, Ren glanced at his face, and really didn't think anyone would chat with Wenxi.

However, he reassured: "Don't worry, you just need to smile.

Listen silently, and if you want to respond, just praise the other person a few words, and you must say something nice. "

A week ago, Mrs. Ellie invited him to be her boyfriend and attended a banquet, and he learned a lot.

Wen Xi stroked her hair and nodded with a vague understanding.

Seeing this, Higg also asked: "Boss, what should I do if I don't know what to say?"

He is also a big old man who doesn't understand these things.

"If you don't know what to say, talk about the recent weather. Although it's a boring topic, it's well-regulated, it's not easy to make mistakes, and it's suitable for wasting saliva." Ren raised his eyebrows and teased.

He didn't know this before, and it was taught by Keisha, and he went to practice it again with Mrs. Ellie.

Seeing that everyone didn't understand, Ren said some precautions. There are many celebrities tonight, and he doesn't want to be ashamed.

The reason why I took Garcia and the others was to train them. This kind of thing has to be experienced.

Jenny and Suzanne ignored these stinky men, arm in arm, and prepared to put on makeup together.

They don't need Ren to teach them. Susanna and Kesha have also learned this. As for Jenny, she is the daughter of a small noble family, so she naturally understands this.

At 07:30 in the evening, all the people from Thorn Security Company put their appearances in order and walked towards the square outside the city hall. This was also the first time they had collectively appeared on a formal occasion.
