Volume 1: A sound on Wall Street, Xinxiang City is busy copying books Chapter 119 Roller Coaster
Chapter subtitle: NY in 1920
Well, the show has been dragged on for almost too long.
History has taught Master Yuan that once public emotions are aroused, it is hard to predict what will happen next.
These guys really rushed over and burned me to death. According to the white skin's character at this time, the law must not punish the masses, of course, that thing is not in the "masses" of the white skin now.
He took a deep breath and yelled, "Stop crying!"
"Why don't we cry? This Chinese won our money and we are not allowed to cry?"
These guys really had such poor mental qualities that he could only shout again, "Listen to me!"
"Listen to that bullshit, they must be asking us for money. I don't care about my life but money!"
Why are you so fierce? Do you think I am afraid of you just because I am fierce?
Of course I’m afraid!
Yuan Yan sighed inwardly and shouted, "Alright, I don't want your money anymore!"
"What's good about that? He's good but we're not...what did he say?"
"He said he doesn't want our money anymore!"
"REALLY?!"
Everyone finally reacted, took a deep breath in unison, and looked towards Master Yuan on the steps...
At this moment, a dazzling ray of sunlight shone through the dark clouds and shone onto the handsome Chinese man, giving his solemn appearance a layer of luxurious and gorgeous gold edge.
In the eyes of everyone, our Master Yuan is like a freshly minted gold coin... or a huge gold coin worth 500 to 2,500 US dollars, so shining, so bright, and so inspiring to worship him!
"I... don't... want... your... money... anymore..."
His imperial decree once again struck everyone's heart.
At this moment, Yuan Yan's glorious image, who seemed like a god but not a god, and a saint but not a saint, was deeply engraved in the hearts of everyone present!
“Snap! Snap! Snap!”
Of course, it was also engraved on the film...
"Lot 249 of Sotheby's special auction of Master Yuan Yanshu is this famous photo, NY in 1920, taken by a photographer from The New York Times."
"This photo was taken on the morning of November 3, 1920, the morning after Master Yuan's famous 'NYU Gambling Night'. He stood in front of the NYU bell tower and generously forgave gambling debts of up to $500,000. This photo was taken at the moment he opened his mouth to forgive everyone's debts."
“Even without discussing the historical significance of the photo NY in 1920, it is still worthy of praise from the perspective of photographic art. Master Yuan on the right side of the picture is enveloped in the morning light, looking so bright and majestic, forming a very sharp contrast with the crowd in the dark on the left side of the picture, forming a photographic work that looks like a religious painting.”
"Starting price: five thousand US dollars..."
These hundreds of people had a very hard night. It was so cold in Daxinxiang at night in November. They all relied on campfires and strong liquor, but these two things could not replace beds and sleep.
It's okay that they were cold physically, but as these people heard the results of the votes in each state, their hearts were getting colder and colder. They were holding their breath, but now they heard such a merciful amnesty, and they relaxed. These hundreds of people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.
They immediately showed their excitement in their own way: some were crying and laughing, some were crazy, some were jumping, and some were walking slowly... In short, the scene was quite lively..
These guys were so excited that no one remembered to thank the Chinese man for his generosity and they were only concerned with their own happiness.
Our Master Yuan has always been a magnanimous person. He doesn't mind or care about everyone's neglect. He is very happy and decided to give everyone another good news at this time.
But before telling everyone the good news, we can't forget about the guy on the roof, otherwise Mr. Mike Baldwin will definitely jump down.
He turned around, looked up and shouted, "Mr. Baldwin, can you come down now?"
"Of course, of course, I'm ready. Mr. Neo Yuan, thank you so much."
Mike, who was so excited that he was incoherent, finally got back into the bell tower...
Yuan Yan suddenly turned around and raised her hands high, making a downward gesture, and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, please be quiet. I have something else to say!"
Some people were more grateful: "Shh, don't talk, just listen to Mr. Yuan."
Some people still have some memory: "Yes, silence, this China... um Chinese is going to speak."
Some people… were too embarrassed to get angry at this time: “Well, since we don’t have to pay, let’s just listen to what he has to say.”
Yuan Yan suddenly saw that the crowd had quieted down, and said, "I really don't want your money..."
"Mr. Yuan, thank you!"
"Neo, you're the best!"
"We will remember this kindness!"
Among these hundreds of people, there are finally a few who know what's good for them and are grateful, so all my hard work is worth it.
Our Master Yuan waved his hands to express his gratitude to them, then cleared his throat and said, "I have decided to give all this money..."
“Donate to the respected New York University!”
"What are you talking about?"
Mike, who had just walked out of the clock tower , was so stunned when he heard these words that he couldn't speak clearly.
Our Master Yuan turned around and said to him warmly, "Mike, didn't you hear clearly? Then I'll say it again..."
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am honored to donate all this money to our New York University!"
"No!"
Mr. Mike Baldwin finally understood the meaning of this sentence, and he let out a heart-wrenching cry, holding his head and kneeling on the ground. And there were quite a few people who reacted like him.
Of course there are fools among those who can go to NYU , such as Mr. Mike Baldwin, but even this fool knows that owing money to this Chinese man and owing money to New York University are two different concepts.
If the money was owed to Neo Yuan, a Chinese, then there is a way to get it back, after all, he is Chinese. For example, if Mike threatened to die, would Yuan Yan dare not give him a few days' grace or exempt him from the payment?
In fact, he was instigated by people with ulterior motives to create a big scene and force the Chinese man to make concessions.
But unexpectedly, our Master Yuan actually transferred this huge amount of debt to New York University. So this means that the creditor of this debt is now New York University!
