The Dark Way of the Egoist: A Serial

Chapter 87 Contraband

Things in the world are unpredictable, victory and defeat change, and it is very interesting when luck comes.

After becoming a rookie, of course you have to announce your existence.

and so……

The grand charity gala hosted by Yang Bo was full of enthusiasm and generosity!!
At least on the surface, the venue was decorated in an elegant and modern style, with artists' works hanging on the walls, which not only demonstrated the aesthetic value, but also added a source of income for the charity project of the party - money laundering and bribery.

The style of the decoration was carefully chosen to match the theme of the party and create an elegant and warm environment - all that glitters is rotten inside.

There is a red carpet and a receptionist at the door to greet every guest.

Next to the reception desk at the entrance, there is an introduction to the purpose of the charity gala and the stories of the beneficiaries, so that every guest can feel the importance of charity.

As night falls, the lights inside the venue light up softly and layeredly, and carefully selected music plays slowly in the hall, adding solemnity and harmony to the scene.

In the layout of the venue, the designer used soft lighting and elegant scenery to create a comfortable and inspiring environment. The display of artworks is not only an aesthetic enjoyment, but also brings direct economic benefits to charity projects - money is really a good thing.

Every corner is fully utilized, whether it is the reception area, communication area or dinner area, which reflects the thoughtfulness and care of the organizers.

Guests got to know each other, exchanged business cards and discussed charity topics in the exchange area.

Government officials, business leaders, cultural celebrities and elites as well as people with a passion for public welfare gathered together. Their exchanges were not limited to business cooperation, but more about how to "jointly promote social progress" - so just listen carefully.

funny.

The party officially started.

In addition to Yang Bo, other celebrities and representatives of beneficiary groups also spoke, hoping to arouse people's understanding and support for charity - once again, everyone should listen carefully when they are at the meeting.

Those who don't know the rules will die miserably.

There were wonderful cultural performances at the venue, including concerts, dance dramas and short films.

It not only entertained the guests, but also conveyed the core message of charity.

Generally speaking, charity auctions are the highlight of such events.

Precious works of art, ancient artifacts, and strange unknown objects will all appear in this session.

The bidding process is tense and exciting, and often inspires people to donate generously - well, in fact, it is still a variety of interest exchanges behind the scenes.

After all, the essence of art is just a superficial facade. Without sufficient connections and hard power, don't even think about getting involved.

Outsiders are not qualified to cash in on their connections...

Think about why a cut on a piece of paper is worth 1.85 million.

Think about why most artists' works are only valuable after the author dies.

"There are so many people here." Dak was secretly peeping at the scene. After all, he had never seen such a high-end scene before.

Holding a huge banquet to announce one's presence and officially gaining a foothold in this city requires sufficient influence so as to fill in the gaps in the government's public power.

For example, this is a charity gala, and charitable donations and the establishment of orphanages are all real and must be implemented.

Don't try to cheat.

The imperial government of this world is truly almighty and has the power of life and death!

Trying to fool them will cost you a life worse than death.

All of this was watered with blood and death.

Of course this does not mean that there is no corruption, collusion between officials and businessmen, but they have legal ways to collect money - asset holding, political donations, etc.

There is no need to break the law.

After the last battle, it took Yang Bo and the Sanhua Society a long time to swallow up all of Qing Gui’s assets.

The high taxes and personal connections made Yang Bo's head spin. Dak couldn't help but feel lucky that he had found an experienced agent to be his agent.

If he had to do everything himself, his head would have exploded long ago.

This kind of thing is no longer something that can be handled by a talented socialite. Only an experienced veteran can preside over it properly.

"Here, I would like to thank the great Emperor, the responsible government, and everyone..."

Yang Bo used sincere emotions and powerful words to tell about his own or other people's charitable experiences...it hardly seemed fake.

"Is this the nature of intelligent creatures?" Wawa stood upstairs and watched all this happen. It was more of a common feature of those in a superior position than human nature.

If you want to be the boss, you have to eat other people. Either be a diner or be served at the table.

This society is nothing but eating and being eaten.

"This is wisdom, but it's still hard for you to understand, right?" Dak exclaimed.

No matter how much the doll looks like a human, in essence she is still a collection of "curses". The fact that she can maintain this posture is the result of system constraints, and she does not have a normal human worldview.

"I don't like it..." The doll itself is really not interested... However, it is still possible to simulate thinking and pretend to be a person.

But...it turns out that having subordinates is still useful, and boring things like this should be left to them.

"After all, we need all kinds of research data and materials. Instead of taking risks to rob or steal, it's better to exchange benefits directly and make peace with them.

Get the easy-to-get things first and then consider other ways to play. "Dak's attitude has always been like this, he doesn't like to take unnecessary risks, at least not now.

"Do you want to go down and play, dear?" Dak put his arm around the baby's waist and held him in his arms.

"Dake, do you want to? But what about your identity?" Wawa stared at Dak. Should he use illusion directly or do nothing to transform his appearance?
"Let's go, let's just change our appearance." Dak said, and as he finished speaking, two more people came here, a man and a woman.

Yang Jie and Yang Lu are Yang Bo's children.

These are identities that can be replaced by Dake and Wawa, so Yang Bo is still very useful.

"Master." Yang Jie and Yang Lu knelt on the ground respectfully, with excited expressions on their faces. It was a great honor to be the master's temporary container.

"Trouble." Wawa had no expression on her face. She really had no interest in getting involved in all this, but she would still play with Dak.

They are a loving family!

Although the donation amount for the entire charity gala can be paid by the Sanhua Society itself, in order to work in unison with the vested interest groups of the upper class.

But this boring activity is necessary.

Dake and Wawa's bodies turned into shadows and entered the shadows of Yang Jie and Yang Lu.

This is similar to the method of being possessed by a monster.

With the active cooperation of Yang Lu and Yang Jie, even Dak himself found it difficult to find the problem.

"My sense of touch feels like I'm wearing a leather case. There's always a sense of delay." Dak smacked his lips, not quite used to it.

After all, he, who has always acted as a human being, is different from those born demons.

Not only strength, but also way of thinking and perception of the world.

"Okay, let's go down." The doll moved its body and made some movements that were beyond the common sense of human body structure.

The two of them walked downstairs together.

During the dinner, exquisite food and fine wine provide guests with a pleasant dining experience while also contributing to charity - as all expenses are usually donated.

Money and the like are just numbers. Their essence is the share of social productivity that each of you here can occupy.

To them, the productivity of ordinary people represented by money can never be fully spent.

As long as it does not intentionally disrupt the market economy, you can spend it in any way you want.

At their level, the truly important things cannot be bought with money.

What is needed is power, authority or equal barter.

Next comes the highlight of the evening - the charity donation session!
But... it's boring.

Duck was totally uninterested.

In this kind of occasion, donations will certainly not be made directly, but in the form of an auction. In essence, the purpose of the dinner is not charity, but to build relationships and expand interpersonal networks.

As Yang Bo announced the fundraising target and encouraged those present to actively participate, the donation figures continued to grow.

"The atmosphere on the scene became increasingly warm, reflecting the beautiful sentiment of human solidarity and mutual assistance. The entire evening was not only a visual and auditory feast, but also a soul-touching event, demonstrating the huge potential of social forces to improve the lives of others." - by TV reporter reporting for you.

Yang Bo: “I hereby announce that the funds raised will be managed transparently to ensure that every penny is used where it is most needed!

Thank you to every donor for your generosity.”

There was warm applause at the scene
Regardless of whether or not you recognize the fundraising results, the fact that an event can invite many high-ranking people from many cities represents influence.

At the end of the evening, many guests expressed their willingness to continue to “pay attention to” and “support” the “charity projects” and spread the love further and deeper.

As time goes by, the bustling scene will eventually become deserted.

With the tacit cooperation of all parties, no accidents occurred.

……

"This guy actually does charity work?" Liu Cheng was speechless as he looked at the research report in front of him.

How could he not know how Sanhua Club got started?

He has done all kinds of bad things over the years. Is he going to completely clean himself up and get out of this mess?

"It's up to him. These issues are for the municipal government and public security to consider." Jiang Han said indifferently.

“Three orphanages, a vocational school, a hospital, a nursing home…tsk tsk tsk tsk.

I am now curious about what he wants to do." Liu Cheng smacked his lips.

Are the gangs working so hard to whitewash themselves nowadays?
Compared to him, the previous green ghost was a typical example of being ignorant of the current situation.

"Our mayor should be very happy. The reforms he wants to promote require people like Yang Bo who know the current situation." Jiang Han said. He felt that he had guessed something. It was really a dirty py deal.

"That's good too." Liu Cheng nodded and decided to adjust the rating of Sanhua Club.

He doesn't care whether he is sincere in reforming himself or not, he only cares whether Sanhua Club knows how to adapt to the changing times.

I hate those idiots in Qinggui the most. If the Sanhua Society could always be so sensible, what would happen if we gave them some preferential treatment?

And we have to consider the mayor's attitude.

"What the municipal government means is that we will be responsible for monitoring these things to see if there are any problems. The additional special funding will be increased by 15%." Jiang Han said, adding more work will also increase the money, and we will do as much as we are paid.

After a day of training, I feel dizzy and swaying. What on earth am I writing about?
Quack, the resentment is overwhelming!
