Chapter 60: The Great Flood of '98

On July 9th, the summer vacation begins. This time, when Wang Qinian went home for the summer vacation, he was forced to take Xiaoxiang home at the request of his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.

When I got home, my parents were a little surprised that Wang Qinian was taking a big girl. At first, I thought it was a female classmate from the film school, but my parents still wondered, the college student is as tender as a junior high school student?

However, after Xiaoxiang said hello, they knew that she was actually the girl Li Lingxiang when she was a child.

Mother seemed very happy, pulled Xiaoxiang to talk about her childhood, and asked her why she went back to TJ for the summer vacation? As a result, Xiaoxiang said undisciplined that she is now Wang Qinian's girlfriend.

At this moment, Wang Qinian's parents were dumbfounded.

How old is Xiaoxiang? I'm not even sixteen years old, and I'm still a minor according to the law! Even if the relationship between two people is good, it's not too late to wait a few more years to get along!

"Wang Qinian!" In the eyes of his parents, his image has been ruined and he has become a little bastard.

Of course, although I was shocked at first, I couldn't bear it.

But Wang Qinian's parents are now thriving in their careers, so they are also very open-minded in terms of personality.

Regarding the interaction between Wang Qinian and Xiaoxiang, they don't have very big opinions. As long as you don't make "human lives" now, nothing else.

……

Soon after I got home, it rained all day. Wang Qinian and Xiaoxiang are more homely, and they can stay at home, but they don't feel very bored. As long as there are TV, Internet, books, games, dVd and other entertainment facilities, there is not much difference between being at home and going out.

Staying at home for a long time, spending a lot of time in front of the TV.

Wang Qinian's side has been raining all day, and he just feels a little abnormal.

However, there is a long news of flooding in the Yangtze River area on TV.

Wang Qinian suddenly remembered that the flood of 98!

The impact of the Yangtze River flood this time is huge.

According to TV news reports, this catastrophic flood directly affected 29 provinces across the country, with Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, and Zhejiang being the hardest hit areas. The affected area is more than 300 million mu, the affected population is 223 million, the death toll reaches 3ooo, and 6.85 million houses have collapsed.

Because the flood is too severe, this year the flood disaster in the country is the top priority!

Officers and men of the People's Liberation Army, the People's Armed Police, the People's Police, and other officers and men rushed to the front line from all over the country to fight the flood, treating the flood fight as if it were a war.

Although an unprecedented scale of relief personnel was mobilized, the scale of the disaster was too large.

On both sides of the Yangtze River, which stretches for thousands of kilometers, countless PLA officers and soldiers are fighting, and when they encounter the danger of bursting the embankment when the flood peak arrives, they almost use their lives to fill it.

There are also actions to help the old and the young, and to save the victims, all of which can be seen in the army's mobilization and execution during the disaster relief period.

Wang Qinian saw the touching scenes on TV, especially the river dam that burst, the sandbags could not block the impact of the river, and the rows of PLA soldiers directly held the wooden stakes to form a human wall to block the flood peak.

This kind of fearless sacrifice, those heroes in the legend, is nothing more than that, right?

Wang Qinian's eyes were a little tearful, and he thought to himself, what should be done for the disaster area!

Originally, the city in the home often did promotional activities during the New Year's holidays.

In this big flood, Wang Qinian built yƬ does not promote, but does charity, every time a consumer buys 1o yuan of goods, Little Prince City will donate 1 yuan to the Red Cross.

The reason for donating to the Red Cross is also because at present, only the Red Cross is available in China.

In addition, the Red Cross is also more reliable than other privately established charitable foundations, because the system restricts the leeway of the rats, so that at least more than half of the donations will actually be used for good deeds.

But this is not necessarily the case with private philanthropic foundations. Modern private charitable foundations were established primarily to avoid taxes. Governments around the world have laws regarding charitable donations that can offset a portion of their taxes. That's why the charity fund has flourished.

And many wealthy people donate money from their left hand to their right hand to donate money to their right hand to donate money to some funds related to themselves.

According to various shady materials, Wang Qinian knows that this world is a "worse world". Sometimes, when making a choice, it is not about choosing the good ones, but about choosing the relatively "not bad" ones from the "rotten".

Many private charitable funds, of the huge funds, often less than 1o% are used for charity, and the rest of the money is used to support bloated teams and reimburse those rich and "good people" for various expenses. In addition, some charitable funds are simply used to avoid inheritance tax, and their family descendants are attached to the name of the fund, and everyone can receive a monthly salary from the charitable fund. In essence, this kind of charitable fund is a fictitious name, rather than a "family member living expense fund" for the living expenses of the descendants of the family.

In ancient times, it was also a shortcut to be a "good person" to get rich. Whenever there is a natural disaster, some so-called "good people" will always emerge in some places, and they will first pay some investment to build momentum and create a little good name. The "great good people" who have accumulated great fame can assist the government in disaster relief, and the granaries, government treasury and other resources are in the hands of the "good people", because they have more experience in "disaster relief".

The government asks "good people" to help take care of the government treasury and disaster relief resources, which is often equivalent to "rats entering the granary"!

After that, the good family that originally only had a few hundred acres of land did a few more "charities", and the family became a wang family, owning thousands of acres or tens of thousands of acres of fertile land.

This kind of strange thing has been repeated again and again since ancient times.

Therefore, Wang Qinian would rather donate to the Red Cross when he donated the money. After all, most of the visible charities in China, such as the Hope Project and the Hope Primary School, are operated by the Red Cross. The organization that has done the most charitable deeds is definitely the Red Cross.

……

On July 11, 98, the city of Little Prince put up a propaganda poster - "You shop, I donate, buy 1o donate 1".

After the event began, the business in the store was very good.

Because, the price of goods in Little Prince City has not been raised, and the goods sold are not as expensive as their surrounding counterparts. Donations to the disaster area are deducted from the city's own profits.

As a result, it has attracted a lot of goodwill from customers and feels that Little Prince is a store with a sense of social responsibility.

Although, it's a bit of a gimmick to use flood donations as a gimmick to advertise.

But as long as it is a real donation, the customer is also very supportive!

At its peak, the sales exceeded 150,000 yuan a day. Even during the trough period, the recent daily turnover has not been lower than 50,000 yuan.

Although the store donates 1o% of its revenue every day, the donation amount is between a few thousand yuan and more than 10,000 yuan. Donate every day, which seems to reduce the net profit of the store.

However, due to the fact that the business is several times better, although the profit of each business has decreased, it is because of the small profits and quick turnover, yes, there has been a good increase in profits every day. In the past, the store could earn a net profit of 1ooo yuan ~ 2ooo yuan per day.

During this time, the net profit earned by the store every day almost soared between 15oo yuan ~ 5ooo yuan.

Of course, the net profit earned is not as much as the money donated, which makes the clerks full of pride.

Because, Wang Qinian said to them: "You are also heroes who have contributed to the country and the people in the disaster area!" ā€

This sentence seems to be ordinary, but the clerk felt a shock after hearing it, and he ...... Contributed to the country? It is a person who has contributed to the country and the people in the disaster area!

This sense of honor and identity is often more moving than a simple monetary incentive. Of course, salary and bonus incentives are also essential.

Both material and spiritual are indispensable in order to build a team full of combat effectiveness.
