Chapter 556: Chapter 556: The Low-Key Celestial Fortune

Qin Yun silently said to himself.

The scene of the flood in Henan a few years ago is still fresh in his memory; the water on the road was one or two meters deep, military personnel and volunteers had to row small boats to move forward, water filled into the houses, up past the waist, the rice fields were submerged and invisible.

Many people were trapped inside houses, unable to get out, a situation Qin Yun didn’t want to witness again.

Meanwhile, many people online were paying attention.

"A flood might occur in Yan Province."

"Oh my, please stop raining. I have a phobia of floods."

The potential for flooding quickly dominated trending topics and even became the top of the list.

People from Hua Country might be competitive, might be disunited, often arguing with each other during normal times, no one liking the other, but when faced with real crises, they absolutely come together to face challenges.

That’s why the people of Hua Country have stood strong for five thousand years.

In a short amount of time, the attention reached tens of millions, meaning millions were already watching.

Afterwards, the number of people watching continued to grow!

Online, volunteers were even starting to organize, preparing to head to Yan Province.

Perhaps responding to collective prayers, the heavy rain in Moyang City finally stopped the next morning.

At this moment, the water level in Moyang City reached half a meter deep, but fortunately, this situation was far better than the flooding in Henan, the problem wasn’t too severe.

The speed of Hua Country is always swift, especially when it comes to such matters.

At this moment, many soldiers arrived, volunteers also came in, clearing water from the roads, evacuating people, moving them to higher ground to prevent sudden rainfall.

Meanwhile, Celestial Fortune had already found over 3,000 large vans, each loaded with plenty of foodstuffs, gas, large pots, etc., stationing them at various locations, ready to cook on-site.

In the afternoon, those busy volunteers looked around for food and saw a food truck and meals being packed beside it.

At this time, the pot was filled with potato stewed with braised pork, with more braised pork than potatoes, steaming hot.

Seeing this, a dozen or so volunteers came over.

"Boss, how much does this cost? Give me thirteen portions," said a man leading the group.

The chef packing the food smiled and said, "It’s free, you’ve worked hard, just take these to eat."

Upon hearing this, the dozen volunteers exchanged glances.

They expressed their thanks, not too pretentious, and each took a portion.

Without chairs or anything else, they stood and ate like this.

"Boss, which company are you from?" Someone chatted while eating.

Many companies had already announced donations and supplies online, which would be sent over shortly.

"We are from Celestial Fortune," the chef said cheerfully.

He was temporarily brought in by Celestial Fortune to cook; of course, these meals weren’t bought with his money, but Celestial Fortune paid him adequately; their task was to make free meals for volunteers.

"Celestial Fortune? I’ve heard of this name before."

"Is it that clothing store?"

"I think Celestial Fortune also sells shampoo."

Some seemed to recognize the name Celestial Fortune and asked curiously.

The chef chatted with these volunteers.

Finally, he said, "We will keep making food in the afternoon, evening, tomorrow, and the day after; if you’re hungry, come to us, I can’t help much else, but there’s enough food."

"Thanks, boss," the volunteers expressed gratitude.

Similar situations weren’t just happening here, but in other places too.

Besides the initial 3,000 food trucks, more new ones kept arriving.

Qin Yun didn’t care about the expenses now; he couldn’t do anything during the event years ago, but now he’s willing to help however he can,

What’s spent isn’t significant to him.

Thus, the number of food trucks kept increasing, vans drove to various places, almost covering Moyang City and its neighboring cities.

Due to the hasty preparation, the vans just had love-themed stickers written with markers, nothing else written, Qin Yun wasn’t interested in using the flood to promote Celestial Fortune.

Celestial Fortune is developing faster and faster, kicking off the Wealth Gathering Array early each month along with his engravings, occupying the market in three provinces within a month!

In such a short period, Celestial Fortune’s funds had been accumulating quickly!

Celestial Fortune has truly grown, Qin Yun is not worried about any threats.

In just half a year, Celestial Fortune will be able to occupy the entire domestic and United States market.

By then, imagine the profits of Celestial Fortune!

With such enormous profits, Qin Yun no longer has much thought about this flood.

...

Online, nearly everyone scrolling Douyin was focused on the flood situation in Yan Province, knowing that this flood wasn’t too severe, no one died, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After feeling relieved came the judgment of donations.

The focal points naturally became groups like Tencent, Ali, etc., leading in donation amounts.

Those who didn’t donate were naturally criticized.

Gradually, someone suddenly pointed fingers at Celestial Fortune.

"Celestial Fortune now has over ten thousand employees, right? Opened so many stores, sells shampoo, toothpaste so well, and yet they donated nothing this time?"

"Zero donations, makes me laugh."

"Celestial Fortune, aren’t you coming out to explain?"

"Explain what? Expecting anything from such a heartless company selling inferior products?"

Many ranted in the comments section.

Celestial Fortune had previously clarified the issues with shampoos, toothpaste, clothes, but many still held skeptical attitudes, having no good feelings towards Celestial Fortune, and now finally had the chance.

...

"President Qin, people online are stirring things up," Zhao Tianqiang reported as Qin Yun had not returned within Moyang City.

Qin Yun looked at the video comments on his phone and said directly: "Have the PR department say our Celestial Fortune has already shipped the supplies over, ignore the rest."

As for money, he simply wouldn’t donate; if given to other organizations, who knows what the money would be used for?

Therefore, Celestial Fortune actually made zero donations, which wasn’t wrong.

Thereafter, Celestial Fortune released a video briefly explaining.

But clearly, netizens weren’t buying it.

"Donating supplies? Who are you kidding?"

"Celestial Fortune, you wouldn’t really donate zero, right?"

A small group of people, like hungry wolves, were constantly watching Celestial Fortune, eager to bite off a chunk.
