Caishen had not responded when Madam Qian came and stole Alix away.
"Play something good, to accompany the bidding." Madam Qian told her.
Alix decided to play the song of the crabby serpent. If the donors were in a good mood, they would offer more money.
This time round, it was madam Qian who addressed the guests instead of her husband.
"I want to thank you all for coming for our annual Ko-Qian benefit. The mission of this benefit remains the same as always. It's to support the education of as many children from low income households and orphanages as we can.
We have expanded to paying medical bills and providing the most basic needs for such children as well.
Last year, thanks to all of your help, we were able to help four thousand three hundred children. Of this number, two hundred have successfully graduated from the university and some have successfully acquired gainful employment."
She paused and led everyone in an applause.
