Chapter 176

January 3, VIP Building.

Relatives and friends gathered, and the invited came with the beautiful women who were not invited.

These beauties who were not invited were very excited. When they heard about it, they sharpened their heads and asked people to take part in it.

This is a real rich circle. Anyone under Xiao Shan is worth more than 100 million. Not to mention, being able to attend Xiaoshan's engagement ceremony will be envied by countless people, which means that we don't just know Xiaoshan, but people in the circle.

On the side of Xiaoshan, lineages like Ding Yuan, Liu qiangshan naturally came, including Huang Tu Hao and Yunsong childe.

On the Miao side, the leadership of Xiahua bank is indispensable. In addition, Miao Shenghu came with great face under the personal telephone invitation of Xiaoshan.

Although it's only a small area, I don't want to make it public, there are ten tables.

Xiaoshan wore a suit of Italian handmade custom-made suits. Everyone looked energetic and in high spirits.

He never cares what he wears. If no one asks him to change, he can wear a suit. Fortunately, several women never thought it was something he should worry about. They prepared him every day and told him to wear whatever he was asked to wear.

Today's dress is the same. It was made in advance by Ruolan.

At the beginning of the ceremony, Luan Yuling acted as the master of ceremonies.

Xiao Shan directly took off her position as general manager without any retention, which disillusioned her.

And let her be the master of ceremonies today, and the intention will be clearer.

She is a very strong person. She just buried her real self silently and faced everyone with the most qualified host face.

"Distinguished guests, relatives and friends..."

Luan Yuling's voice is warm but not loud, warm but not sensational. After a welcome speech, it tells the story of Xiaoshan and Ruolan's acquaintance, love and mutual trust. It's like a romantic landscape painting, which makes all the guests drunk like spring breeze.

Engagement is an old habit. What we pay attention to is the words of matchmakers. But Xiaoshan two people are free to fall in love, and they don't intend to pretend to be aristocrats, so the media directly omitted this step.

The first step is to give gifts. Xiao Yuxuan picked up a square box with a red bow on it and solemnly sent it to Miao Shengjun and Li Ruoxi.

The box looks not small. In fact, there is only a bank card in it.

Luan Yuling directly announced: "the man gives the woman a gift of 88888888 yuan."

The guests exclaimed that NIMA Xiaoshan is too rich!

This is the real rich.

However, it's not surprising for these people to think about it. When they find anyone in the United States, they invest 100 million US dollars to marry their sister. It's really nothing to give their wife 90 million bride price.

Next, the two sides give each other engagement gifts:

First, Xiaoshan gives Ruolan a gift, and Ruolan returns the gift. They both sent a suit of clothes, which symbolized that they would love each other, ask for warmth, know cold and heat, and spend life together in the future.

The only difference is that Ruolan's clothes are made to order, and Xiaoshan's clothes, er, are also made to order.

Finally, both parties wear engagement rings.

In Luan Yuling's blessing, Xiao Shan put the keepsake of love - the engagement ring on Ruolan's left ring finger.

This little ring symbolizes that their hands are held and their feelings are connected. Their pure love will last forever and their future life will be happy.

Bai Jingyi, her mother-in-law, also gave her gift of meeting Ruolan with a necklace and earrings.

Finally, Luan Yuling drank the engagement wine. Luan Yuling's voice was suddenly loud:

"Please raise your wine glasses and cheers! Love investment will form two marriages, which will lead to eternal fate. If you don't marry, you are two, but if you marry, you are one. Drinking the engagement wine symbolizes the complete success of today's engagement ceremony. I wish them peace, beauty, happiness and health in their future life. Next, please sit down and invite the two newcomers to propose a toast to you."

Jiang Liangqing is holding a tray and Ding Yuan is waiting with a wine bottle. The two newcomers toast next to the table.

Xiao Shan smiled. No matter who he addressed, it was a cup of wine.

The mystery is simple. It's all in wine.

Everyone understood, but everyone cheered to him with a smile. No one joked and asked what you drank.

……

The next day, Xiaoshan couldn't wait to come to Taobao.

Because there is one thing that can no longer be delayed, that is, we must plan ahead to prevent SARS.

SARS has appeared since December, but it has not been made public. After all, if there is a national panic, the whole society will be in chaos and the loss will be too great. No one can shoulder this responsibility.

But Xiaoshan knows that SARS cannot be controlled and will spread throughout the country.

At this time, it has spread in Guangdong Province, and the whole Guangdong Province is in panic.

Is the best time to respond in advance.

It's easy to be suspected too early. How did you know it would spread? It's too late.

Xiaoshan has called in advance to let Wang Wei and Liu qiangbing wait in the office.

When they got to the office, they both got up to greet each other with a smile.

Wang Wei used to regard Xiao Shan as his boss, but now Xiao Shan is a God in his heart.

Xiaoshan is like an open and hanging world. It is invincible. There is nothing he can't do. Wang Wei can only look up and has no desire to compete.

"Sit down, let's talk about the development of Tao Bao." Xiao Shan didn't say a word of nonsense and went straight to the subject.

They felt that Xiaoshan must have made great moves. They were all ears.

Xiao Shan looked at Wang Wei and said, "do you know that infectious diseases broke out in Guangdong Province?"

Liu Qiang was startled by the cold. Why is there something else I don't know?

Wang Wei suddenly became nervous and said in a low voice, "President Xiao, there is indeed this. Moreover, we already have an express brother infected. The hospital calls it SARS. But we must not talk nonsense about this. If it causes panic among the people, the consequences will be too serious."

Xiao Shan nodded and said, "I understand. We just discuss countermeasures in private and never say it in public."

Liu Qiang's frozen eyes lit up. He felt something vaguely, but it was not very clear.

Xiao Shan continued: "at the current rate of SARS spread, SARS will spread all over the country. Have you thought about the consequences?"

Wang Wei is a little puzzled. Can we manage this?

Even if it is out of goodwill, if it leads to national panic and unrest, it is to blame.

But Liu Qiang froze the faint beating light, suddenly burst out and blurted out, "it will lead to a sharp rise in Taobao sales!"

Wang Wei suddenly realized that people all over the country are hiding at home. Where can I buy daily necessities? What are you doing without shopping online?

Xiaoshan said with a smile, "what Qiang Dong said is right. Now we should take measures to strengthen the reserve of daily necessities. In terms of express delivery, we should also be prepared for the surge of orders. This is an opportunity for great development. SARS will completely activate the e-commerce market, and people will be used to online shopping and online survival."

Wang Wei excitedly suggested: "now the sales of Banlangen and white vinegar are very hot. Although they are only limited to Guangdong Province, if it breaks out across the country, the demand will be terrible, so Tao Bao can buy Banlangen and white vinegar in large quantities."

Liu qiangbing nodded and said, "this demand makes money, but you can't sell it at a high price. That's tantamount to making a country rich."

But Xiaoshan shook his head and said, "Banlangen and white vinegar can't prevent SARS. It's just that the people spread false rumors. We can't add fuel to the fire."

Both of them were confused. How do you know you can't prevent it?

But they didn't ask. Xiaoshan was guiding them, not discussing with them.

"The mode of transmission of SARS is mainly close respiratory droplet transmission. Therefore, the most correct way to prevent SARS is to wear masks that meet the N95 standard and spray 84 disinfectant in public places. Therefore, while the price of these two things has not increased yet, we must reserve a lot. Sales is certainly not a problem, so we can use a lot of business payables."

Liu Qiang frozen nodded and said, "I see. The filtering efficiency of N95 mask is 95%, while ordinary mask can only filter 50% of the virus."

At the same time, he also understood the meaning of using accounts payable. The sharp rise in sales in the future will automatically fill the hole in accounts payable.

This is the advantage of the industry leader. The sales payment is settled once every three months, and the merchants still have to suffer.

Xiao Shan continued: "and gloves. This demand is smaller than that of masks, but it is also a strong demand."

"I see. But as the largest shopping website, should we erect our positive image and donate some medical devices to the country?"

Liu qiangbing means that if Tao Bao makes a lot of money on SARS, it is easy to give the impression that the country is difficult to make money, so it is necessary to erect a positive image.

Xiao Shan secretly praised Liu qiangbing for his consideration, but he had already thought about it:

"I personally funded the solution and still donated it in the name of Tao Bao, mainly the special protective clothing, N98, n99 and N100 masks for medical staff. These things have to be purchased from abroad. First, the quality is reliable, and second, it can avoid leaving a pretext for hoarding medical materials."

Liu Qiang and Bing immediately admired each other. They paid for Tao Bao's image, which is really beyond the ability of ordinary bosses.

You know, Xiaoshan's current Taobao shares are only 35%.

After discussing some details, Xiao Shan hurried away.

Xiaoshan took Jiang Liangqing and Tiehu to the airport directly. Without telling anyone, he took the flight to Hong Kong.

Shanggang is the largest city in China. American Johnson & Johnson has a branch here, and Johnson & Johnson is the largest manufacturer of medical protective articles in the world.

"LIANG Qing, why didn't the agents who assassinated me move?" Xiao Shan asked suddenly, looking at the floating clouds outside the window.

Jiang Liangqing said calmly, "it's not that there's no movement. They've already moved. But we sent a special combat team to wipe them out. In our country, how can they be rampant?"

Xiao Shan was stunned. It turned out that behind the seemingly calm, there was a sword fight.

He suddenly found out how happy it was to be backed by a country.

He became more and more determined to repay the society.
