Chapter 929 Magnitude 8 Earthquake

Orphanages and nursing homes, public welfare projects prepared by the Tianxia Agricultural Chamber of Commerce, have been established in various states one after another!

The first orphanage and nursing home were chosen by Lu Yunluo in Beiliang Prefecture, far away from the capital. It was remote and underdeveloped, and there were too many helpless elderly people and orphans without fathers and mothers.

Because Lu Yunluo was still pregnant, she did not go to the day when the orphanage and nursing home were established. However, Sister Ye came back and said that the elderly and children were very happy to have a new home.

However, the number of places is limited, and each state has only established one orphanage and nursing home. After all, it is still a drop in the bucket.

Although Lu Yunluo didn't see it with her own eyes, from Sister Ye's description, she could still imagine the eligible elderly people and children leaving in disappointment because the number was full.

After careful consideration, she decided to use half of her money for charity.

When Ji Wujue found out, he also asked the court to allocate part of the money, and then set up a public welfare organization led by the court.

The Li family of the six major aristocratic families also made a high-profile donation of a huge sum of money to the construction of orphanages and nursing homes in Donglan Country.

Suddenly, the Li family received great praise and was unanimously praised by the people.

Taking advantage of this wave of positive reviews, the Li family followed up with another advertising slogan, "For every order placed in the store, the Li family will donate two pennies to charity organizations!"

Huge and eye-catching banners were hung at the entrance of every store of the Li family, and the people once again praised the Li family for their good deeds.

By the time the other five aristocratic families reacted, the Li family had already triggered a rush of people in various places because of this incident, not only making a lot of money but also gaining a good reputation.

So the other five major aristocratic families started to get greedy.

The first one to react was Wen. Not only did he generously donate a large sum of money, but he even ran the same advertisement. The difference was that for each order, instead of donating two pennies, he donated four pennies!

When the other four aristocratic families saw that the Wen family was really cunning, they actually had two cents more than the Li family.

This is obviously an attempt to outdo the Li family and gain a good reputation!

How can such a good thing be allowed to the Wen family exclusively?

So the remaining four major aristocratic families followed suit one after another, and the people soon discovered that the Li family's advertising slogan was almost ruined on the street.

Some donate 5 cents for every purchase, some donate 6 cents, and some even donate 8 cents!

Anyway, almost every two steps you take there is a shop with a banner advertisement.

"Dad, everyone else has paid eight cents! Should we add some more?"

Li Changhai asked anxiously.

Since other aristocratic families started to imitate them, people now say that the Li family is stingy, so they are willing to pay two cents.

Mr. Li looked at Donglan Daily calmly. He glanced at his eldest son Li Yuan, who had just returned from a business trip a while ago, and said, "You should explain it to him."

Li Yuan glanced at Li Changhai and sighed and asked, "Third brother, let me ask you, after the amount of money they donated increased, did the cost also increase?"

Li Changhai nodded, "Not bad."

"Then think about it, if the cost increases and the selling price remains unchanged, will the profit decrease? It's okay in the short term, but if it's in the long term..."

Before Li Yuan finished speaking, Li Changhai suddenly realized, "They will definitely not be able to persist! And we are going to do this for a long time!"

When they can no longer persist, they will either increase the selling price of the product, reduce the quality of the product, reduce the donation amount, or directly cancel the charity donation.

No matter which one it is, it will destroy their hard-earned reputation!

When the time comes, the people will discover that the Li family is the most reliable!

Li Changhai couldn't help but sigh, "The Queen is so powerful. She even anticipated the reactions of the other five aristocratic families!"

No wonder dad was so calm and relaxed after he came back from the palace.

"It's really great!"

Li Yuan sighed sincerely. It was difficult to know how many emperors in history wanted to get the wealthy families to donate money generously. However, with just one move, the Queen made the six wealthy families donate their money willingly.

Even he might not be able to come up with such a plan to make the Li family gain both fame and fortune.

It's a pity that he missed the opportunity to meet the Queen last time because he went out of town. He really wants to meet the Queen!

…

On this day, Lu Yunluo was really bored, so she caught some of the chickens, ducks and geese raised in Leng Palace and threw them into space.

When passing the pig pen, she thought about it but gave up.

After all, she doesn't have time to go into space and feed pigs every day.

Lu Yunluo walked around the space, and when passing by the spiritual spring, she noticed the stone tablet standing nearby.

This stone tablet has a hidden function, that is, it can see the future weather conditions.

Over the years, every time the space is upgraded, this weather forecast stone will unlock more cities.

So far, she can check the weather conditions in 249 cities in five countries in the next six years.

Lu Yunluo flipped through it once and saw natural disasters of all sizes, but because there were too many, she couldn't manage them. After that, she seldom looked at them. She only looked at them when she went out to see if they would happen tomorrow.

It will rain.

When she passed this stone monument before, she usually walked straight past it, but this time, she stopped.

Anyway, she has nothing to do now, so she just passes the time by looking around.

The dim stone tablet gradually emitted a faint white light, and then a huge blue screen was projected into the mid-air, emitting bursts of faint light.

The screen displayed categories of five countries, and Lu Yunluo wanted to take a look at Donglan Country first.

She waved her hand lightly, and the thirty-six states of Donglan Kingdom were displayed on the screen. Clicking on it showed the city corresponding to each state. There were almost more than 800 cities in the entire Donglan Kingdom.

She clicked on them one by one, "It seems that this winter will be difficult!"

There will be heavy snowfall in most places in the next month.

Lu Yunluo thought that after she went out, she would restore the weather forecast function in Donglan Daily, so that the people could at least prepare in advance.

Another page flashed across the screen in mid-air. Lu Yunluo's eyes swept across it casually, and then suddenly paused!

"Peizhou, Longxi City, on the 13th day of the twelfth lunar month, at three o'clock in the morning, there was an earthquake of magnitude 8..."

"I am busy farming in the cold palace"
