Chapter 630 The Last Princess Arrives (Thirty-Four)
It is the end of another year, and the various dances and cocktail parties to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new have not stopped because of the war.
The Ye Family Garden was ablaze with lights, the sound of drums and music, and the place was filled with elegant ladies and a life of luxury.
The yard and the living room were full of people.
However, despite the extravagance of "the rich have dogs and meat", the theme of this cocktail party is very positive -
"Princess Qingcheng Charity Association is officially established today!"
Warlords were fighting each other and the flames of war spread across most of the country, and the people at the bottom of society were always the ones who suffered the most.
Coupled with droughts, floods and other disasters, the people were suffering terribly.
Gu Qingcheng came to this time and space. In addition to completing missions, he also had the sentiment of serving the country and the people.
The power of one person is indeed small.
But, it’s better to do it than not to do it.
Gu Qingcheng has been enhancing the international status and influence of "Princess Qingcheng" in order to better change the world.
In order to achieve her goals, she repeatedly used foreign powers to bully others and used the foreigners' reputation as a banner.
The same is true for this charity association.
Led by Gu Qingcheng, families such as Dulang, Rhodes, and Luo Fei from Chou Country responded one after another. Mansions from countries such as Y and D, as well as wealthy businessmen and politicians in the Celestial Empire, also contributed money and effort.
Some of them are just for show, but they can ensure that Gu Qingcheng's charity association will not be obstructed by warlords and other forces.
Some donated money, instantly replenishing the charity’s funds.
Some of them are talented people. The hospitals and schools under the Charity Federation have doctors and teachers supported by foreigners.
...It can be said that Gu Qingcheng's charity association has truly verified that Gu Qingcheng's efforts in the past few years have not been in vain.
She, Princess Qingcheng, has already gained a status and influence that commands the attention of hundreds.
For ordinary people, they don’t understand much, they just know that Princess Qingcheng is a good person.
Although she is a princess of the previous dynasty, she still cares about the people.
Even if it means digging up ancestral graves and selling ancestral property, we must build charity hospitals, Hope Primary Schools and orphanages.
Every time there was a famine, she would donate money, food and medicinal materials.
Princess Qingcheng's good deeds have always been circulated in newspapers and on the streets.
But for some educated or knowledgeable people, Princess Qingcheng lived up to her status as an imperial princess and was a true hero.
In the past few years, she has been sponsoring promising young people to study abroad.
From the initial twenty or thirty people, it has grown to one or two hundred people now.
What she did was better and more thoughtful than the warlord government.
Especially in the past one or two years, several universities in Beijing have had their funding cut, and teachers and students are starving.
It was Princess Qingcheng who paid personally to solve the urgent problems faced by teachers and students.
There is also the Shengjing Aviation School, which is the first aviation school in China. The pilots trained there will become the pillars of the country.
From airplanes, to various educational resources, to students' food and accommodation, Princess Qingcheng paid for everything alone.
You wouldn't know until you count. When you count carefully, you will find that Princess Qingcheng has done so many things in just four or five years.
Today’s charity association is a small climax.
Gu Qingcheng once again took out 100,000 taels of silver and raised 300,000 silver dollars in charity donations. All of this money was used to buy food.
Drought hit several northern provinces, leaving thousands of miles of barren land and no harvest.
After the drought, there was a locust plague, snowstorms, hail, floods, and epidemics...
It seems like God is leaving no chance for the common people to survive.
But the warlords are still fighting each other.
They only care about their own territory, how could they think about the victims who are wailing all over the place?
Gu Qingcheng would remain silent when seeing those news every day.
People say that the Republic of China was romantic, but Gu Qingcheng said that even if there was romance, it was a bloody romance full of darkness and despair.
Because the people at the bottom of society are suffering so much and their lives are so difficult.
No wonder so many celebrities in the Republic of China were grief-stricken and depressed, and some even committed suicide for the country.
They have awakened and seen the suffering of the people, but they are powerless to change it.
"Fortunately, I have a golden finger!"
Gu Qingcheng took a deep breath and tried her best to contribute her strength.
It happened that this year, the Ugly Country entered the Great Depression.
Farmers are the first to be hit.
Food prices plummeted.
Gu Qingcheng used his connections in Chou Country to purchase large quantities of grain.
She was rich. In addition to the "private property" she took away from the palace and the treasures dug out from her ancestral tombs, she also had dividends from several patents.
Gu Qingcheng has a hold on the two most profitable businesses at the moment: military equipment and medicines.
Her annual income is quite considerable.
However, the power of an individual is always small.
When describing a person’s wealth, people often use the phrase “rich enough to rival a country.”
But in reality, we will find that personal wealth can never match that of a country.
For example, this time's purchase of grain for disaster relief almost used up all the huge profits that Gu Qingcheng had earned in the past few years.
There is no way, there are too many victims of the disaster in China.
There is never enough food.
But these days there is no fast transportation, and the cost of transporting grain is higher than the price of grain itself.
When all these expenses are added together, it is definitely a staggeringly huge number.
“No matter how much money you make, you must do it!”
"If you lose money, you can earn it again, but if you lose a person, you really have nothing!"
Gu Qingcheng gritted her teeth and persevered.
She has already purchased the second batch of food, and the donations received from today's charity dinner will allow her to make a third round of ocean purchases.
"Your Highness, I really admire you!"
The person who said this was Bill, who was the first ugly Chinese person that Gu Qingcheng met.
It was also him who helped Gu Qingcheng to establish connections and achieve cooperation with the Dulang family.
Gu Qingcheng successfully became friends with this deputy envoy.
Bill helped a lot in the establishment of the Princess Allure Charity Association.
Not to mention anything else, just the food transported from the Ugly Country, if it was not carrying the Ugly Country’s flag, it would most likely be snatched away by those bloodthirsty warlords halfway through the journey.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Bill helps Gu Qingcheng not only out of an alliance of interests but also out of friendship.
Now, one more thing has to be added - admiration! As a member of the Dulang family, Bill knows very well how amazing the wealth Princess Qingcheng has earned in the past few years is.
As a result, such a huge amount of money was spent on disaster relief.
Not everyone can devote all their wealth to the country and the people.
"You are a real princess!"
Bill admired it sincerely.
The current Princess Qingcheng is not just a false title left by the last dynasty, but a truly noble and visionary person.
Her name is destined to shine in this time and space, and to be passed down to future generations.
Gu Qingcheng raised his glass, "Thank you for your compliment."
“Maybe it sounds a bit official, but I still want to say it. This is my mission!”
Gu Qingcheng really wasn't just talking big.
Regardless of her personal wishes or the content of this mission, she must become a "real princess".
"Also, thank you for your generosity! Bill, you are my best friend, and an even better friend to the Chinese people!"
Gu Qingcheng drank the wine in the glass to express her gratitude to Bill.
"Princess, it's an honor to be your friend! Cheers!"
After saying goodbye to Bill, Gu Qingcheng greeted other deputy envoys, wealthy businessmen, and celebrities one by one.
She was the brightest presence in the entire venue.
Hiding in the crowd, the Fourteenth Princess in a suit looked on with a complicated expression.
The Fourteenth Princess felt both envy and malice towards Princess Qingcheng.
All of them were daughters of the Ai family, and all of them were once distinguished ladies of the royal dynasty.
Princess Qingcheng will be able to enjoy unlimited glory and be surrounded by people.
But she was trampled upon and turned into a tool that could be used by everyone.
This is not fair!
"…Only the weak will demand fairness! The strong will never complain about this."
Because there is no need! The Fourteenth Princess hates those who hurt her.
However, she herself did not realize that after more than ten years of education (brainwashing), she had deep in her heart agreed with the extreme practices of the evildoers.
She admires the strong! She hates the weak! She will do anything to achieve her goals! "Princess Qingcheng, enjoy your last moments of glory."
"The Ai royal family can only have one spokesperson. You must disappear!"
There was a hint of viciousness in the Fourteenth Princess' eyes, but there was a warm smile on her face.
She put the wine glass in her hand to her nose and sniffed it gently, then, when the time was right, she made a gesture.
At this time, Gu Qingcheng had finished greeting everyone and walked back to the front of the banquet.
The light shone down on a small platform.
A banner with the words "Princess Qingcheng Charity Association" was hung on the curtain behind the stage, and Gu Qingcheng stood in the front in a gorgeous new Chinese-style dress.
Seeing her appear, all the guests came around.
The venue also became quiet.
"Good evening, distinguished guests!"
"Qingcheng thanks everyone for coming and for your kindness..."
Gu Qingcheng began to give a very official thank-you speech into the microphone with a very Republican style.
With her stunning looks, noble temperament, confidence and brightness, coupled with the blessing of lights, she is simply the most dazzling and eye-catching existence.
She is destined to be the focus of everyone.
She may not be a Mary Sue or a heartthrob, but at this moment, everyone's impression of her is positive and optimistic.
Even if you think she is a "black fan" who is seeking fame and reputation, you have to admit that it takes considerable courage to spend such a large sum of money to buy fame.
Princess Qingcheng is absolutely worthy of the title of “good person” and lives up to her status as a princess.
Maybe the atmosphere was right, or maybe someone was deliberately inciting it.
After Gu Qingcheng finished her speech, everyone not only applauded, but some people even shouted excitedly.
"Princess Qingcheng, save the country and the people!"
"Princess! Long live!"
A young man in a Zhongshan suit rushed forward while shouting "Long live the people".
He seemed like a crazy fan who just wanted to watch his idol up close.
Gu Qingcheng's alarm bells rang loudly. Oh no, it's dangerous! Sure enough, the next second, the man who looked like a student took out a gun from his arms and pointed it at Gu Qingcheng, bang, bang...
