Chapter 339: , Preheat

After Mr. Messier proposed that they would use the high-grade luxury car fares prepared for the rich to compensate for the loss of low-priced tickets, the media's interest shifted to the luxury level and pricing of the luxury cars.
In an interview with "Kommersant", Mr. Messier gave a general introduction to the luxury cars, calling them "flying palaces." As for the seat pricing of luxury cars, Messier said that this is still a small number that is not a problem for rich people.
"After all, compared to a carriage, a train can carry more people at a time. So although the cost of our train is much more expensive than the ultra-luxury carriage when Louis XVI tried to escape from Paris, the average The seats are not more expensive than his carriage. Of course, both the speed and the comfort level far exceed those of his carriage. In those days, if he was not riding in a carriage like that, but our train, then he It ran away a long time ago, plus this line is a long-term operation, so it is not too expensive to spread out.
In addition, the first train to the Palace of Liberty, because it has a special commemorative significance, is the world's first passenger train, so its ticket sales are subject to certain restrictions. All ordinary tickets on this train will be donated to students in various primary and secondary schools in Paris, so that they can feel the charm of science and technology. As for the location of luxury cars, auctions are used for bidding. All the proceeds from the auction will be donated to the education of France, because children are our future!
You know, we have always believed that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Many of us have made money through our own efforts, made a fortune, and become rich people. But we must be grateful, and we must know that in addition to our personal efforts, we also have the help of the entire historical process. Without the joint efforts of the French people, we would not be where we are today. Therefore, those of us who are rich should know how to be grateful and know how to give back to society. Therefore, I call on all the wealthy people in France to stand up and take concrete actions to support us..."
After accepting this interview, the focus of the newspapers quickly shifted to the auction. Driven by the newspapers, people began to discuss how much these seats would be sold at the auction, and which wealthy people would be willing to give generously to charity.
Although the auction has not yet started, the wealthy people in Paris, especially those on the bright side, have opened their mouths one after another and expressed that they are very interested in charity. Including a lot of big rich people who were not well-known.
For example, Mr. Bowen, who is often belittled as a vampire, said that he has always cared about trains and charity, so he will definitely participate in this auction, which is considered to be fulfilling his social responsibility.
Another example is Renai, who is despised by many as "the biggest pimp in France", also said that supporting charity is the responsibility of the rich first to get rich, plus "many of my employees are also Very interested", so he must also return with a full load at this auction. With his statement, people can't help but think about the beauty of his employees when they board the train.
Of course, the most surprising thing was Mr. Grandet, the executive director of Lorraine Steel Company.
With the rise of Lorraine Steel, the company has become more and more eye-catching. Although he is not the largest shareholder of this company, as the executive director of Lorraine Steel’s daily affairs, Mr. Grandet, of course, will inevitably receive everyone’s attention. Then, one of his characteristics has become widely known, that is, stingy. .
Mr. Grandet’s wealth is well known. After all, Lorraine Steel is almost one of the most profitable companies in Europe. As its executive director, to say that there is no money, it is like understanding that Wang said that disinfectant can be injected intravenously. It is definitely a joke. (Whether it is or not, anyway, if you understand what Wang said, it is.)
But even if there is money, everyone knows how frugal Mr. Grandet is. He has always had only four sets of clothes, two sets of rotations when it is hot, and two sets of rotations when it is cold. And they are all of the most cost-effective type (Grantet's so-called cost-effective means the money spent on buying clothes divided by the expected time of use, resulting in the smallest quotient). In addition, Mr. Grandet was reluctant to buy a carriage, and insisted on walking to work until he was almost kidnapped again before finally having his own carriage, but the carriage was a mess. In order to save money, Mr. Grandet Even the coachman was not prepared to learn how to drive the coach himself.
Some people even made up such a paragraph for Mr. Grandet:
Mr. Grandet arrived at the cafe, sat down, and ordered a cup of coffee. The waiter came over and asked, "Sir, do you add sugar to your coffee?"
Grandet said: "First, give me a cup without adding it. Be full."
So the waiter brought unsweetened coffee. Grandet took a sip of the coffee to make room for the sugar cubes, and then shouted to the waiter: "Give me a candy!"
This paragraph is of course not true~EbookFREE.me~ because Mr. Grandet would never enter a cafe for coffee. Anyone who knows Mr. Grandet knows that he does not drink alcohol, coffee, tea, only water.
Because of this, some reporters ran to ask if Grandet would participate in the auction, thinking that they would get this answer: "What? Spending money for a luxurious seat? No, this is crazy! Charity? That's me. What is it? I want to pay? Unless you ask Robespierre to come over with the guillotine himself... Yes, I will not participate, I will never participate!"
However, Mr. Grandet did answer this way:
"About this matter, in fact, I have already contacted Messier. He told me that any one of us can check this account at any time to see if he has used the money where it shouldn’t be used. . In this case, I think the money should be used where it is really useful. In this case, this event is a complete charity fundraising event. I think the charity event is very meaningful, of course I am willing Participate, although I am not interested in sitting in luxurious chairs at all. Because Messier is too cunning. He is advertising for free. He should pay me advertising fees..."
