Chapter 166: Only Donating Ten Thousand

Sun Yi stood in place, his face livid.

He looked at the backs of Qin Ze and Jiang Wan and spat fiercely:

"Damn, what a piece of work!"

Ding Yuan said from the side:

"President Sun, this kind of woman is just blind."

Qin Ze and Jiang Wan walked all the way to the reception room.

In the reception room, quite a few people were already sitting.

The principal was sitting in the main seat, with several school leaders sitting beside him.

There were also several decently dressed alumni, all arranged in the front row.

Li Hao was sitting next to the principal, and the two were chatting enthusiastically.

Qin Ze and Jiang Wan walked in and scanned around.

The front row seats were already full.

They could only walk to the back row.

The principal looked up at the few people who entered, his gaze lingered on Li Hao for a while, and then he withdrew it.

He didn't even look at Qin Ze at all.

Qin Ze didn't care either, found a corner seat, and sat down.

Jiang Wan sat beside him.

Not long after, Sun Wenliang also came in.

He walked to the principal's side and whispered a few words.

The principal nodded, then stood up and cleared his throat:

"Dear alumni, welcome back to your alma mater!"

"Today is a big day, our Qingshui No. 1 Middle School is celebrating its 100th anniversary!"

"Thank you to all the alumni who were able to take time out of your busy schedules to participate in this celebration!"

A burst of applause erupted offstage.

The principal continued:

"Next, we are going to carry out an important segment."

"Donation registration!"

"Please, alumni, come here one by one and register your donation amount!"

"Donating more or less is all a gesture, we won't force it!"

After speaking, he sat back in his seat.

A teacher took out a registration book and placed it on the table.

Li Hao was the first to stand up, walked to the table, picked up a pen, and wrote down the three characters "500,000" with a flourish.

Then, he looked back at everyone, a triumphant smile on his face.

Immediately after, several more alumni went up to register.

Some donated 100,000, some donated 200,000.

The principal shook hands with them one by one, smiling from ear to ear.

It was Jiang Wan's turn.

She stood up and walked to the table, picking up the pen.

Everyone's gaze fell on her.

Everyone wanted to know how much the General Manager of Qingfeng Holdings would donate.

Jiang Wan took a deep breath and wrote three characters in the registration book.

"500,000."

The entire reception room went quiet instantly.

Everyone was stunned.

500,000?

Another 500,000?

The principal widened his eyes, looking at the number in the registration book, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses:

"Ms. Jiang Wan, are you sure you want to donate 500,000?"

Jiang Wan nodded:

"Sure."

The principal's face was instantly filled with smiles:

"Good, good, good! That's great!"

"Ms. Jiang Wan, you are truly the pride of our school!"

He reached out his hand, wanting to shake hands with Jiang Wan.

But Jiang Wan just nodded indifferently and turned back to her seat.

The principal's smile stiffened for a moment.

But he quickly returned to normal and continued to greet others.

At this time, Qin Ze stood up.

He walked to the table and picked up the pen.

Everyone's gaze fell on him again.

How much would this upstart who won the lottery donate?

100,000? 200,000?

Qin Ze picked up the pen and wrote two characters in the registration book.

"10,000."

The entire reception room went quiet again.

But this silence was completely different from the silence just now.

Just now, when Jiang Wan wrote 500,000, it was quiet because of shock.

Now that Qin Ze wrote 10,000, it was quiet because of...

contempt.

Wang Lei was the first to laugh out loud:

"10,000? Qin Ze, you're only donating 10,000?"

"You're someone who won five million!"

"And you're only donating 10,000? Aren't you embarrassed?"

Sun Li also shook her head:

"Qin Ze, aren't you being too stingy?"

"Jiang Wan donated 500,000, and you're a man, and you only donate 10,000?"

Ma Wenkai also joined in the mockery:

"10,000 yuan in our small county isn't even enough for a meal."

"Qin Ze, isn't your perspective too small?"

Class teacher Sun Wenliang's face also turned somewhat ugly.

He walked to Qin Ze's side and lowered his voice:

"Qin Ze, what are you doing?"

"10,000 yuan, isn't that too little?"

"Why don't you add some more? Adding it to 50,000 would be fine too."

Qin Ze glanced at him and smiled:

"Teacher Sun, 10,000 yuan is already quite a lot."

"No one's money comes from the wind!"

"Besides, how much is your own monthly salary!"

Sun Wenliang's face turned even uglier.

But he couldn't say anything in front of so many people.

He could only sigh and shake his head.

At this time, the principal spoke up.

He waved his hand:

"Alright, alright, stop talking."

"Donating more or less is all a gesture."

"As long as there is a heart, even donating one yuan is good."

This sounded like smoothing things over, but anyone could hear the perfunctoriness in the principal's words.

Qin Ze didn't care either.

He turned and walked back to his seat.

Jiang Wan looked at him and whispered:

"Why did you only donate 10,000?"

Qin Ze smiled:

"Some schools are worth donating more to."

"Some schools, even 10,000 is too much."

Jiang Wan was stunned when she heard this.

Then, she understood Qin Ze's meaning.

She nodded and didn't say anything else.

The principal looked at the registration book and then said:

"Alright, the donation registration ends here."

"Next, please, alumni, move to the Hefenglou Grand Hotel!"

"We have already booked the banquet!"

"At that time, I hope everyone can implement the donation!"

After speaking, he looked at everyone and added another sentence:

"However, due to the limited seats at the banquet, there are only seventy-something seats."

"If you count the school leaders and teachers who are going, there might be less than fifty seats."

He paused and scanned the crowd:

"So, alumni who donated less than 50,000, today..."

"Go back first! This activity is also over..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone present understood.

Those who donated less than 50,000 cannot go.

Qin Ze stood in the crowd, hearing this, and sneered in his heart.

This is not an alumni banquet!

This is a slaughter banquet!

They really carried the word "snobbish" to the extreme!

Actually, for Qin Ze!

Having been in society for so many years, Qin Ze had long understood a truth!

This world is very makeshift, and everyone is utilitarian!

As for the so-called big principles, those are all lies told by smart people to fools!

Qin Ze turned to look at Jiang Wan and whispered:

"Let's go."

Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment, and also understood Qin Ze's logic!

And at this moment, everyone else also followed out of the reception room door!

Walking toward the outside of the school.

Jiang Wan nodded and stood up.

The two had just walked to the door, and when the principal saw Jiang Wan was leaving, he immediately chased after them:

"Ms. Jiang Wan! Ms. Jiang Wan!"

"Why are you leaving?"

"The banquet is about to start!"

Jiang Wan looked back at him:

"Principal, since those who donated less than 50,000 cannot go, then I won't go either." ===== CHAPTER 167 =====
