Chapter 288: The Red Cross Society is formally established
The next day is the day of the ten-day holiday.
Students from all over the country volunteered and took to the streets to spread the idea of the Red Cross and raise funds in Chang'an City.
At the same time, the news that Mo Jiazi was a volunteer of the Red Cross spread rapidly in Chang'an City, after all, at this moment, the name of the Red Cross was only supported by Morton alone.
Merton's fame, the noble goal of the Red Cross. The selfless behavior of volunteers, the supervision of the whole people, and the open and transparent accounts all convinced the people of Chang'an City.
At the same time, a special issue was added to promote the Red Cross's philosophy and the flood situation in the flood area.
At the main intersections of Chang'an City, pedestrians passing by have donated generously.
"These are all the same as the Mo family, they are all students of Guozijian, but they are all future masters of the blue sky, so naturally they will not be greedy for Mo's money."
"The victims in the flood discharge area have only been affected by the disaster for the sake of the entire Shandong region, so we will naturally not sit idly by.
"My ancestral hometown is Henan Province, and my hometown has suffered a disaster, so it is naturally incumbent on us to wait for us."
………………
Facts have proved that Merton's method of selecting Guozijian students is extremely correct, first, the large number of students, and second, the special status of Guozijian students, which itself has credibility.
Soon, one by one, citizens enthusiastically stepped forward to donate, whether it was to donate money or materials, all the volunteers received all the orders, after all, the victims in the flood area were in a hurry to escape the flood, lack of food and clothing. The more these things, the better.
Suzaku Avenue.
A pedestrian was waiting for a four-wheeled bus, saw the Red Cross fundraising, sighed and put the Kaiyuan Tongbao in his hand into the donation box, turned around and set off on foot.
South City Gate.
A merchant took stock of yesterday's profits, divided half of them, walked out into the street, and threw a string of copper coins into the donation box.
In one restaurant, customers looked at the menu, removed half of the dishes, and when they left the restaurant, they put the money they had saved into the Red Cross donation box next to the street.
In Pingkangfang, one by one the women in the Qinglou picked up their little money and donated it to the victims without hesitation.
Shengye Fang, Qin Huaiyu and the three of them didn't care about face at all, so they blocked the entrance of Shengye Fang to collect donations, and the nobles who came in and out one by one pinched their noses and threw money into the donation box, if they donated less, they would be embarrassed.
In the West Market, some blonde and blue-eyed Hu businessmen stumbled through exchanges, learned about the purpose of the Red Cross, and after the flood of the Yellow River, they also donated one after another, sometimes charity knows no race and national borders.
……………………
There was a sudden fund-raising craze in the whole Chang'an City, and many people knew that the Red Cross was an organization that specialized in doing good deeds, and they donated money and materials one after another.
Dongshi,
When Merton, Zu Mingjun and Kong Huisuo had just set up a donation box, the entire East Market immediately caused a sensation.
"Merton!"
"Mo Jiazi!"
"Lord Mohou ......"
Merchants in the East Market have come one after another, you must know that in the East Market of Merton, it is a mythical existence, turning clouds and rain between raising hands, turning stones into gold, and changing hands can earn money that others can't earn in a lifetime, Zu Mingjun and Kong Huisuo can't help but smack their tongues when they see Merton's super popularity.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are here today to raise funds for the Yellow River flood, and nothing else." Merton saw that many people actually asked him for business experience, and hurriedly said.
"The flooding of the Yellow River, we will naturally not forget," the merchants in the East Market generously said.
I have to say that Dongshi is indeed the most prosperous place in Chang'an City, and after a while, Merton raised a lot of money.
"Lord Mo called on everyone to donate, but I don't know how much Mojia Village donated this time?" A man of good deeds asked suddenly.
In an instant, the audience was silent, and everyone looked at Merton quietly, knowing that Mojia Village was under the leadership of Merton, and it was a year to get rich, since Mojiazi took the lead in calling for donations, if he didn't donate, it would be a bit too much.
"Helping the victims, such a good thing Mojia Village will naturally not miss it." Seeing that Merton had not yet answered, a hearty voice came from behind everyone.
"Shopkeeper Xu?"
Everyone was shocked for a while, only to see Xu Jie put aside everyone and walked forward, you must know that Xu Jie is the foreign affairs manager of Mojia Village, responsible for the external affairs of Mojia Village, and the power in his hands can be described as huge.
"Xu, as a representative of Mojia Village, donated 10,000 yuan to the victims of the flood discharge area!" Xu Jie said loudly.
"How much?"
Everyone in the audience couldn't help but be stunned and asked rhetorically in disbelief.
"Mojia Village donated 10,000 yuan!" Xu Jie said repeatedly.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the audience was like pouring water on a pan of oil, and suddenly it boiled.
Many people immediately set their eyes on the Mo family, Xu Jie is just the foreign affairs manager of Mojia Village, and the real master of Mojia Village is the Mo family in front of him.
"Thank you, I thank Mojia Village for the victims of the Yellow River!" Merton said calmly, as if it was no different from ordinary people donating a penny.
After that, Kong Huisuo and Zu Mingjun took a huge pasted donation slip, Xu Jie happily signed the amount of 10,000 yuan on it, and Merton picked up his seal and stamped it without hesitation.
Everyone was in an uproar, and then they believed that Mojia Village had really donated 10,000 yuan.
10,000 yuan, that is a huge wealth, and Mojiacun did not hesitate to donate, you must know that according to the concept of the Red Cross propagated by Mo Jiazi, no one will have any conditions attached to donations, and Mo Jiazi unselfishly donated such a huge amount of wealth.
However, this is only the beginning, in addition, a number of wealthy businessmen who are good friends with Mojia Village have also donated.
"Zheng's firm donated 5,000 yuan!"
"Lu's Liquor Store donated 3,000 yuan!"
"The Qian family's pawnshop, donate 2,800 yuan!"
………………
The wealthy businessmen of Chang'an City are generous, maybe they are like misers, calculating and not pulling out a dime, but at this moment there is no hesitation.
Due to the large amount of money donated by everyone, it is impossible to take out the cash at all, and all of them are replaced by large donation slips, but everyone will not suspect that these wealthy businessmen are fraudulent donations, because the credibility of merchants in Datang is above all else, if they lose their trust, I am afraid that there will be no chance of a comeback.
Soon, the large amount of donations that occurred in Dongshi soon spread throughout Chang'an City, and the people of Chang'an City saw the horror of the Red Cross, if they could have such a huge fortune, the development prospects of the Red Cross would be limitless.
Lizheng Palace.
Li Shimin looked at Princess Changle in front of him with an angry face and said angrily: "So, you formed the Red Cross Society that caused a sensation in Chang'an City?" ”
"Merton, it must be this kid Merton, I said why is this kid so active as a volunteer." Li Shimin said angrily.
Princess Changle's face was resolute, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, my daughter, as the eldest princess, wants to do something to share her father's worries. ”
"What can you do as a girl?" Li Shimin waved his hand arbitrarily and said, although the concept of the Red Cross is good, Li Shimin does not think that just relying on the few pennies of ordinary people can make much difference.
Princess Changle smiled confidently and said, "Father, this is the account of the Red Cross for two days, and I ask my father to check it." ”
"Two hundred thousand?" Li Shimin didn't care about it at first, but when Yu Guang swept the accounts, he was suddenly startled.
200,000 yuan, which is more than the money he took out of his inner pocket.
"And this is just a donation from Chang'an City,...... What if all the cities in Datang had a Red Cross? The corners of Princess Changle's mouth showed an arc, depicting a magnificent vision for Li Shimin.
Li Shimin's heart was suddenly shocked, he was shocked by the great potential of the Red Cross for the first time, for the royal family, the Red Cross is such an organization, how can he rest assured that it will be handed over to others.
"The Red Cross is a big deal, and it must be named by the Queen." Li Shimin compromised.
"Thank you, Father!" Princess Changle was immediately overjoyed.
Soon, the news that Empress Changsun was the honorary president of the Red Cross and Princess Changle was the first president of the Red Cross spread throughout Chang'an City.
The whole Chang'an City was a sensation.
