Cosma Empire

After looking at the statue, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch. There are at most a dozen auction items before the end of the auction. Du Lin has not participated in the auction until now, and he has not expressed his dedication and love for the society. That is incorrect. Of course, he can also take pictures of the things in the back. He flipped through the picture album again, and most of the things in the back are artworks and paintings.

After the rapid recovery of the empire's economy in the past few years, the prices of all kinds of artworks have begun to rise by leaps and bounds. In the past, the works of second-rate artists who could only sell for three to five hundred yuan can now be sold for thousands of dollars. Naturally, these second-rate artists in the past have also changed. Become a top-notch artist.

The art market had begun to show signs of chaos. Compared with those inexplicable paintings, this statue was more pleasing to the eye. He raised the sign in his hand and turned it over.

The young auctioneer immediately comprehended and shouted out in a slightly exaggerated tone, "Wow, Mr. Du Lin paid 2,000 yuan, which is really a blockbuster. It’s very rare at this charity auction!”, from more than one thousand yuan directly to two thousand yuan is not a big deal, but the way the auctioneer said it gave people a feeling that Du Lin was really riding a horse Proudness, the feeling of being really rich, and really spending a lot of money.

When a rich man does something, others will only look up to him, but when there is such an outstanding person among a group of rich people, it is inevitable that some people will be eager to try, especially this time the price increase is still stepping on others' faces and shouting up.

The cardinal sat on the sidelines and watched the auction calmly. He was actually very excited. These things, which are not very important in the church inventory, can be sold for so much money. After returning, he may consider cleaning up a few large warehouses. Well, maybe I can find some unimportant things.

After being instigated by the auctioneer, no one refuted Du Lin's face. This is also one of the biggest features of the charity auction-a higher bid price means that the bidder has a strong desire to win the auction item. Desire, this situation mostly occurs on the items that bidders bid for themselves.

For example, I send an accessory worth 1,000 yuan to participate in the auction. When the item arrives, the owner of the item will call out the price of 2,000 or 3,000 yuan to indicate that this thing is mine. I will donate more now. Buy this thing back at several times the price, everyone, don't compete with me, this is my favorite thing, and it looks good inside and out.

Of course, sometimes there are exceptions. There is no shortage of people in this world who have unique ideas and like to break the rules. Most of the time, nouveau riche is the representative of this category. They bid several times or even tens of times the price to give to the original owner, or keep it for themselves. In fact, their bidding is not entirely to break this rule or to like this thing very much. Many times it is to praise the original owner. The scene of the master, but they don't know, not only will it not have any good effect, but it will make people feel that they are impolite.

But this item is an exception, because the people in the church did not bid for the price, so other people are relatively free to shout. However, Du Lin still expressed his wishes, and the others also smiled and looked at Du Lin, and closed their mouths. , congratulations in advance for obtaining this statue.

After three hammer falls, the statue belonged to Durin.

There wasn't much trouble after that, until all the commodities were auctioned off, Du Lin, the cardinal and two representatives of the nobility stepped onto the host stage. After the charity auction, there was a charity fundraising event, which was linked together, otherwise Du Lin How can he donate his real estate worth hundreds of millions to the city hall in front of so many celebrities, and how can he show that he is an outstanding young entrepreneur with a sense of social responsibility?

After giving way twice, the microphone was handed over to Du Lin. After nodding his thanks to the cardinal and noble representatives with a smile, he took a step forward, "Thank you very much for taking the time to participate in this charity event, thank you all... ...\

,"After a burst of applause that should have been here, he seemed to have thought of something interesting, and suddenly smiled, "Everyone knows my background...", this sentence made people realize why he laughed, and also felt heartbroken. Then he laughed, "Yes, I'm a farmer's son, and I've never shied away from it, because I don't think it's something to be ashamed of, and I'm still proud of it, and I'll tell everyone, I am a farmer's son!"

"When I was young, I tasted the taste of poverty, I experienced the rotten smell of despair, and I deeply knew that in a corner of this society that was not noticed by people, there was a group of people in need who were dying. Slowly decaying in the same black despair."

"They need our help. Maybe just a few dollars can save a father, save a mother, or even save a family."

He took a deep breath and let it out heavily, his tone became deeper, "The sun can't reach them, no one can help them, they can only fall into the abyss in despair and rot in the corners of society. ", when he said this, he paused a little, brewing the atmosphere, and then suddenly became passionate like a volcanic eruption, "But, we can!"

"Sunshine can't give them warmth, but we can!"

"Faith can't feed them, we can!"

"As long as we extend a helping hand, we can save countless families in this society, make them deviate from the most miserable track in life, let them get a new life, and be able to bathe in the warm sunshine again!"

"This helping hand is called charity!"

"Everyone has the right to live, what others can't give them, we will give it!"

"The contribution of each of us today is not meaningless. This is not for you to have a decent topic when chatting, because we are indeed doing good deeds. We have helped others. This should not be a kind of talk. Then It is an insult to charity, which should be a source of pride!"

"I have helped more people get out of the predicament in the best way I can. I can see the tears on their faces when they are redeemed, and I can also see their bright smiles as they walk towards a new life. This is a great power. It is a great power that deeply shocks the entire human race!"

"Some stupid people say that charity is a kind of hypocrisy. I despise them and despise them. There is no nobler person than us in this world, because we help others without asking for anything in return, because we are kind, kind and generous. There is reverence for life!"

"If you want to understand how to be a person, you must first know how to respect life!"

"That's what we've been doing and will continue to do!"

Du Lin was a little out of breath when he said this. He was roaring and roaring almost the whole time. There was no sound on the entire lawn, and only his voice continued to spread, being carried further away by the wind. He paused for a moment, his voice calmed down, and he showed a smile again, a dazzling smile, really like a flashing smile, "In my own name, I donate one million dollars here. The money is used to help all those in need, and I will form a charitable foundation, invest tens of millions of dollars, and use 50% of the income for charity.”

"I may not be able to help everyone who needs me, but I will do my best to help everyone who I have the ability to help them. I am not noble or pure. I am just for the peace of mind and the respect for life. Awe!"

He bowed slightly and saluted everyone, "Thank you, thank you for listening to me patiently, and thank every caring person for caring for the disadvantaged. You are all angels."

When Du Lin retreated to the back, everyone stood up and applauded him. What he said might not have much skill, but it was enough to shock people. The endless applause is the best comment on what he said.

The reporters on the side were crazy and recorded what Du Lin said just now in their notebooks, and the spotlights were repeatedly turned on one after another. All the reporters knew that tomorrow's news was going to explode!

With Du Lin's words, the cardinal decided to shut up after sliding his throat twice, and then handed the microphone to the two noble representatives behind him. These two noble representatives kept smiling decently all the time. At a glance, they didn't say anything to resonate, they just followed Du Lin silently, donating 500,000 yuan each.

With such an opening, all the people who participated in this charity event gave generously, ranging from one thousand yuan to tens of thousands, which made the cardinal laugh from ear to ear. This time it really made a lot of money. sent. As for the issue of belief that Du Lin criticized a little bit in what he said just now... Is that a problem?

Yeah?

?

?

of course not!

After everyone's fundraising was about to end, Du Lin took the stage again and announced a news himself.

"I will be engaged to Miss Ophelia Timamont in the near future. This invitation letter can also be used as an invitation letter for the engagement ceremony to participate in my engagement ceremony. In addition, to thank God for bringing my dear Ophelia to By my side, I will donate 30% of the real estate in Odis City..."

The next day, almost all the newspapers were reporting what Du Lin said during the fundraising after the charity auction. With one sentence and the photo of Du Lin waving his arms to the sky and his angry eyes, the newspapers were out of stock in an instant. .

People once again extracted the phrase "capitalist with a sense of social responsibility" from memory, and countless words of praise were thrown at Du Lin without money, even Magus was alarmed.

Looking at the photos in several newspapers with almost the same content, Magus rubbed his temples—this bastard's skin is itchy if he doesn't make news for a few days!
