Chapter 220 Charity Auction
Look, there are still selfless good people in the end times. The dishes and food brought out today should be all the good things the old man has. He provided food for more than 200 people, which is enough for his own family to eat for half a year.
When I came today, except for some fish in the pond, all the vegetables in the flower garden had been harvested.
The old man could have just said that all the gifts today would be donated. He could have received the admiration of countless people without wasting the meal, but he still used his best things to entertain his old friend first.
Some people say that the things he donated were obviously not his own, but he gained reputation in the end. The old man could have obtained these things without donating, but he obviously did not do so.
Sometimes, gifts given as favors have their own value. All the gifts he gave out over the years will be taken back sooner or later. After all, these things are still his.
Jingshu suddenly remembered that this had happened in her past life, and it had even been reported in the news. The old man had donated a large meal of white rice to tens of thousands of people in Wucheng, and received countless gratitude. Unfortunately, she hadn't been able to enjoy it in her past life, because it was gone before it was Banana Community's turn.
What Jingshu admires most are people like this in the apocalypse, and they are elderly people. Such harsh living conditions are even more difficult for them.
No wonder Yang Yang sighed, this time he really lost both the wife and the army. He not only did not receive the gift money, but also lost all the food in his family. His grandmother would definitely make his grandfather kneel on the washboard.
Seeing the sounds of surprise and disbelief rising and falling at the scene, Shen San knocked on the auction table and said, "At the same time, everyone who participates in this charity auction will be recorded in the good deeds of Wucheng News. This auction will also be listed in the big data charity auction column for publicity."
In Jingshu's worldview, it's not a big deal for celebrities to use donations to fund hype. As long as they really donate a lot, do a lot of good things, and let the people truly benefit, and both parties get what they want, isn't that great?
The auction started soon, one table at a time, starting from the upper left. An old man took out a set of filters. Old man Yang felt very painful because his family now used filtered water from his son's house.
"Haha, you old fool, you don't want this good thing and insist on donating it. Then auction it off."
The filter is now worth a lot more than it used to be, and was finally auctioned for 1,000 virtual coins. Everyone thought about it, as they were all well-known figures, so it was fine if the value was similar. After all, this was not a real auction.
"I got some dried walnuts specially to nourish your brain, you old fool."
The final transaction price of 5 kilograms of walnuts was 600 virtual coins.
"I caught two chicks, a male and a female, for you at the farm."
The final transaction price was 1,500 virtual coins.
Since there is no shortage of water and even feed, the government is vigorously developing animal husbandry. However, due to the evolution of insect eggs in the middle period, most of the livestock that were finally bred died or were injured after consuming polluted water like humans.
However, the sewage treatment plant was repaired soon after and the water was filtered again. The poultry and people in Wucheng had to rely on the government for drinking water again.
"Lao Yang, I won't give you anything, so that you don't feel bad after seeing it. I'll just give you 1,000 virtual coins, which will make you feel even more hurt. Hahahaha..."
Then I saw that the rest of the people directly gave virtual currency, ranging from a minimum of 500 to a maximum of 1,000.
Generally, Mr. Yang’s old friends would send him some supplements, and those who came in from other sources would directly donate some rice. Of course, there were also local tyrants.
One table after another, it was soon Jingshu's turn.
"That person belongs to my grandson, we are family, next table, next table." After all, they are old friends and we can make donations together.
Jingshu originally thought that it would be better to skip her table and give the things to Yang Yang privately when the time comes. However, she didn't expect that several people who had been to the United States, including Wang Dazhao, stood up together and handed over the Meteorite 911 pistol. Yang Yang whispered to Jingshu about the origin of the gun.
None of them mentioned the model, but just let the old man see it, and he recognized it at a glance.
"Master, this is the hand you have always wanted.
The gun was prepared for your 88th birthday by us, and your grandson found it especially for you. So, there's no need to auction it off, right?"
The old man couldn't let go of one of the only pair of pistols in the world. The United States spent a huge amount of money to make this pair. There is only one pair in the world, worth 30 million. Now this brat has stolen one of them... But it's the end of the world, and the United States can't take care of itself, let alone a valuable pistol.
"Old man, besides, no one else can afford a gun. Auctioning it off would only harm people."
Seeing the old man hesitate, Niu Moo came out and delivered the final blow.
The people present were all smart people. They all shouted, "Don't dare to ask for a gun. Who dares to take a picture? It will be so embarrassing if the picture fails to be taken."
"Since they were given by my family, there's naturally no need to auction them off." The old man looked at so many gifts passing by before his eyes, and finally there was one that didn't need to be auctioned off, and he felt much better.
Niu Moo also took out his gift this time, which was two super large birthday peach cakes with a thick layer of cream cake on top and decorated with strawberries.
"Everyone gets a share of the cake our family prepared. There's no need to auction this off, right?"
There were bursts of laughter at the scene. One has to have a big cake to celebrate his birthday. This gift was prepared with great care.
After giving gifts to everyone at the table, Jingshu had no choice but to take out the blood mushrooms. As soon as the blood mushrooms came out, everyone exclaimed in surprise. Isn’t this the most popular blood mushroom recently?
It has appeared three times in the Wucheng auction. Each time, one flower was sold for at least 1,500. There is still a shortage of supply and a trend of price increase. I didn't expect that there are still people who can take it out now.
"This is definitely the biggest one I've ever seen, and it's still so fresh!"
Everyone who has eaten it praises it highly. Not only is it extremely delicious, but after eating it, you will feel younger and more energetic. Even people around you say that you look more energetic.
The blood mushroom became even more mysterious.
"My family has tried blood mushrooms, and they really work."
"Just said you look a lot younger, you son of a bitch."
"You can't ask for this good thing, so you'd better eat it yourself, old man."
"That's right, you old fool won't live for many more years. I'm still waiting for you to return my gift."
The old man was sure he didn't know this girl, but seeing that she was so quiet and was sitting with her grandson, he didn't know what was going on in his mind. He suddenly smiled foolishly and said, "This is something given by my family, so it doesn't count."
People around then let out long "oh" sounds.
Jingshu: “???” Did you misunderstand something?
