Chapter 189: Three New Pieces Of Intelligence Triggered By The Father-in-law!!!
Looking at the deposit information displayed on the mobile phone.
Jiang Tao seemed to see banknotes flying towards him in the sky.
Over 80,000, but less than 90,000 yuan, wasn’t a lot to him.
But this sum of money made him see the infinite possibilities of the future.
If, one day, his daily business income reached 1 million.
Or even 2 million, 3 million, 10 million…
The higher his business income was.
【 Monopoly Dice 】 would reflect greater value!
Suppose one day Jiang Tao earned 100 million in a single day…
Of course, for now, this was just a bold assumption.
But given time, this day would surely come.
At that time, the 【 Monopoly Dice 】 would roll a 6.
Doubling the revenue by 6 times, that would be 600 million!
Just thinking about it felt amazing!!
At this moment, Jiang Tao’s nest egg had reached over 13 million.
With the dividend from the cattle farm, it was around 20 million.
Storing this money in the bank wouldn’t yield much interest in a year.
He needed to find a way to invest it.
Letting money make money was the fastest way to accumulate wealth!
“I need to pay more attention in the future for any investment opportunities!”
“I must make the money I have flow.”
Jiang Tao looked out at the night outside the window, his mind racing.
Although he had already achieved a comfortable life with a car, house, and savings.
He was far from being able to relax.
Not to mention comparing himself to the tycoons on the domestic rich list.
Even compared to his father-in-law, Old Du, whom he knew.
Jiang Tao’s current strength was completely inadequate.
Holding the Daily Intelligence System and numerous special items.
If he couldn’t even compare to an ordinary person, he might as well go back to Jiang Family Village and raise pigs.
Therefore, even with tens of thousands of passive income daily, Jiang Tao had not completely relaxed.
He was constantly looking for suitable investment projects.
The BUG-class wealth growth artifact, the 【 Monopoly Dice 】, obtained today.
Equivalent to reducing his entrepreneurship difficulty by several times.
Even if he started a business with a very low profit.
He could still use the 【 Monopoly Dice 】 to double his profit.
As his thoughts drifted, Jiang Tao heard the sound of a door opening outside, and Jiang Xue’s chattering voice.
“Dad~ Huh, Grandma, where’s my dad?”
Jiang Xue started looking for her father as soon as she entered.
She was still thinking about the 3,800 yuan she had “invested” that morning!
“Your dad went back to his room a while ago.”
Thump thump thump~
Hearing the sound of running footsteps approaching his door, Jiang Tao smiled and opened the room door.
The moment he opened the door, Jiang Xue happened to run in front of him.
Old Jiang slightly squatted down, and Jiang Xue immediately jumped onto him, hugging his neck, and he lifted her from the ground.
“Dad~ Give me money~ Where’s my money.”
Jiang Xue cupped Old Jiang’s face, her clear, large eyes full of expectation.
Old Jiang smiled, “Kiss me first.”
“Mwah~”
The little cotton jacket didn’t hesitate at all, and smack, she kissed her old man’s face.
Watching the intimate interaction between father and daughter, the family members all wore smiles.
Harmony brings prosperity.
Ever since the whole family came to the capital, the conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law vanished, and the home was always filled with joy and peace.
“Here you go, just like you said, integrity is important, and what Dad says counts.”
“Count how many bills there are yourself, and I’ll see if you count correctly. You’ll be fined one bill for each mistake.”
Jiang Tao said, reaching into his pocket and taking out a stack of crisp banknotes to hand to Jiang Xue.
“Hmph~ Dad, you underestimate me too much! Do you think I’m a three-year-old child! How could I possibly count wrong!”
Jiang Xue pouted proudly, holding the money happily to count it on the coffee table.
“1 bill, 2 bills, 3 bills, 4 bills…”
The family watched the little money-lover diligently counting the money, and they all laughed heartily, amused by her.
“Oh my, so much money, our Xiao Xue is rich.”
“Grandma, it’s too late today, I’ll buy you your favorite bananas tomorrow~”
“Haha, Xiao Xue is so good, thank you.”
“Mom, I’ll buy you a pretty skirt~”
“Okay! Mom is waiting for you to buy it for me.”
“Oh dear! I was so busy talking to you all, how many did I count to? Let’s start over, this count doesn’t count.”
Jiang Xue counted the stack of money on the coffee table several times before finally counting it clearly: exactly 76 bills.
After counting the money, it was time for bed.
Xu Li then took the little money-lover, full of excitement, to take a bath and go to sleep.
After the family took turns washing up, they each went back to their rooms to sleep.
As usual, after advancing the second child plan, Jiang Tao and Xu Li whispered sweet nothings to each other.
“Honey, you were right. I tested it with a pregnancy test today, and my mom seems to really be pregnant.”
Xu Li whispered while gently stroking Jiang Tao’s increasingly defined and taut abs with her soft palm.
Jiang Tao smiled, “I told you my face-reading skills were accurate, right? I didn’t learn this skill for nothing.”
“Yes, from my mom’s perspective, she kind of wants to keep it, after all, it’s a life.”
“But she’s worried that when the third child grows up, she and Dad will be too old…”
As Xu Li spoke of her mother’s concerns, her beautiful brows furrowed slightly.
Just as Xu Li’s mother worried.
Du Yongmei and Xu Wencheng were already 56 years old this year, about to turn sixty.
Now that they were having a child late in life, whether to give birth or have an abortion was a difficult choice.
If they had the child, by the time the child was in their twenties, going to college, dating, and getting married, when they would need a lot of money.
By then, they would be old men and women in their seventies and eighties.
It would be good if the old couple didn’t burden their child, let alone help in any way.
If they didn’t have it… well, that was still a life.
“Tell your parents to consider whether to have it or not, and don’t worry about raising it.”
“If they can’t afford it, they have us. Your elder sister and brother-in-law aren’t just for show.”
Jiang Tao’s casual remark was so generous that Xu Li suspected she had misheard.
“Honey, what, what did you just say?”
Xu Li suddenly sat up in bed, her whole body pressed against Jiang Tao’s chest, her beautiful eyes blinking as she stared at him, asking earnestly.
“I said tell your parents to consider whether to have it or not, and don’t worry about the cost of raising it.”
“As the elder sister and brother-in-law, we certainly won’t abandon the third child.”
Jiang Tao’s words were not just idle talk with Xu Li.
The 【 Monopoly Dice 】 he had obtained from his mother-in-law today was incredibly precious.
Its value was difficult to measure in monetary terms.
He was very willing to take care of his future brother-in-law or sister-in-law in the future.
With a BUG-class item like the 【 Monopoly Dice 】.
In another ten to twenty years, accumulating a net worth of billions wouldn’t seem difficult for Jiang Tao.
At that time, a little bit leaking from his fingers would be enough to ensure his future brother-in-law or sister-in-law lived a good life.
“Honey, you’re so good~”
“If there’s a next life, I want to marry you again and have many, many more children with you!”
Xu Li, now hearing Jiang Tao clearly, had mist in her beautiful eyes, and shed tears of emotion.
Despite being moved, Xu Li wanted to repay him physically, but unfortunately, her strength had already been exhausted.
In the end, she could only verbally reward him for another ten minutes.
00:35 AM.
After Xu Li fell asleep, Jiang Tao mentally opened the intelligence system panel to check today’s latest intelligence.
【 Today’s Intelligence 01 】:
You had contact with your father-in-law, Xu Wencheng, yesterday, and obtained related intelligence—
Among the fishing hooks Xu Wencheng purchased yesterday, one hook is a special item.
Upon obtaining ownership and activating it, you can receive random attributes!
…
“Huh? Another special item!”
“My luck has been good these past two days!”
After a week of bad luck, refreshing intelligence about special items has continuously appeared these past two days.
Jiang Tao’s mood instantly became much better than in the previous few days.
Yesterday, he had just obtained a banknote that could make money and a dice that could randomly multiply income.
Today, the first piece of intelligence refreshed another special item; this luck is truly excellent!
Moreover, this item isn’t anything particularly rare, so he could just ask his father-in-law for it tomorrow.
It should be easy to obtain.
Jiang Tao mentally prompted, continuing to browse the second piece of intelligence for the day.
【 Today’s Intelligence 02 】:
You had contact with your father-in-law, Xu Wencheng, yesterday, and obtained related intelligence—
Below Xu Wencheng’s wild fishing spot, there are 20 “Heluo Stones”!
…
“20 Heluo Stones?????”
Seeing the second piece of intelligence refreshed today, Jiang Tao’s jaw dropped in surprise.
Although Heluo Stones only increase luck attributes by 3 points, their effect is still quite significant.
After he and Xu Li wore Heluo Stones, finding money on the street had become commonplace.
Winning big prizes in lucky draws, scratching off big prizes, the number of fortunate coincidences in their lives had exceeded the sum of the past thirty years.
Now, 20 Heluo Stones had been refreshed at once!
If he could get these Heluo Stones, he could equip one for each family member!
“My father-in-law is quite generous today! Both pieces of intelligence are related to him!”
“And both are special items.”
“There’s no rush for these Heluo Stones; I’ll get them tomorrow when I have time.”
After analyzing the second piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao mentally prompted and continued to view the third piece.
【 Today’s Intelligence 03 】:
You had contact with your father-in-law, Xu Wencheng, yesterday, and obtained related intelligence—
Near the fishing spot where Xu Wencheng was fishing yesterday, a large fish that had been released was trapped by a discarded fishing net.
Inside this large fish, there is a 500-gram gold bar!
【 Note 】: Less than 05:23:35 until the big fish is discovered by a fisherman!
…
“Big fish? A 500-gram gold bar!”
“What kind of person puts a gold bar inside a fish’s belly!”
Seeing the third piece of intelligence for today.
Jiang Tao was again filled with surprise and confusion.
However, regardless of his surprise or confusion.
He was determined to obtain that 500-gram gold bar!
The current price of gold has been quite stable.
The price is about to break the 800 yuan mark.
500 grams is nearly 400,000 yuan!
“In about 5 more hours, it will be discovered by someone else, looks like I have to make a trip tonight!”
“And I’ll pick up those 20 Heluo Stones at the same time!”
“This father-in-law is reliable! Three pieces of intelligence triggered at once.”
Jiang Tao glanced at Xu Li, who was already asleep, then got out of bed, changed his clothes, and walked out of the room.
After changing, Jiang Tao went to the door, picked up the car keys for the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon, and went downstairs.
Sitting in the car, he started the engine.
Jiang Tao had a thought, and a satellite map-like display was projected onto the car’s windshield.
The map indicated his father-in-law’s fishing spot during the day was only a little over 5 kilometers from the residential area.
Jiang Tao drove for about ten minutes and arrived at a small riverbank.
Parking the car on the riverbank, Jiang Tao first opened the trunk and took out a set of work clothes and a pair of rubber shoes to change into.
Ever since he went to a water pit to find a meteorite last time.
Jiang Tao had kept several sets of work clothes, rubber shoes, and a powerful flashlight in the car.
A set of work clothes and a pair of rubber shoes cost only about 200 yuan.
He wouldn’t feel bad throwing them away after use.
After changing his gear, Jiang Tao, holding the powerful flashlight, walked step by step towards the marked spot on the map.
Descending the river embankment, after walking for less than 3 minutes, Jiang Tao arrived at the location where his father-in-law, Xu Wencheng, had fished during the day.
There were still traces of the tackle box on the grass.
【 Detecting no other observers around, do you wish to spend 6,666 yuan to retrieve the 20 Heluo Stones located 3.28 meters underground? 】
As soon as Jiang Tao was in position, a prompt appeared on his retina.
“Yes.”
Jiang Tao did not hesitate at all.
He hadn’t brought any digging tools this late at night and had intended to pay to solve the problem.
The fee of 6,666 yuan was completely insignificant compared to the value of 20 Heluo Stones!
【 Deducting fee, please wait… 】
【 Deduction successful! 】
As the two prompt messages appeared, Jiang Tao’s ears twitched, and he heard several swishing sounds of air being cut.
Immediately, in the void before him, 20 small stones of various shapes, sizes, and colors floated.
These small stones, under the dark night sky, emitted a faint golden light, like little fireflies.
“1, 2, 3…”
Jiang Tao took the floating Heluo Stones in his hand and secretly counted them.
Exactly 20 stones, no more, no less.
These 20 Heluo Stones were just as unremarkable as the two Jiang Tao had obtained before.
In terms of shape or color, they were no different from the pebbles on the riverbank.
Even if someone saw them, they probably wouldn’t bother to bend down and pick them up.
Without the intelligence provided by the Daily Intelligence System.
Jiang Tao wouldn’t have given these small stones a second glance.
“Later, when I have time, I’ll make them into bracelets or accessories for Xiao Xue and my parents.”
“Obtaining 20 Heluo Stones this time is also largely thanks to my father-in-law.”
“I’ll make one for each member of his family of three as well.”
“These Heluo Stones not only provide luck attributes but also offer some protection for personal safety.”
“It’s like having a personal amulet.”
Pondering the distribution of the Heluo Stones in his mind.
Jiang Tao placed all the Heluo Stones into a wooden box he carried with him.
Although there were many Heluo Stones this time, their size was much smaller than the two Jiang Tao had collected previously.
The largest one was no bigger than a quail egg.
The smallest one was actually only the size of a sunflower seed!
If it weren’t for the Heluo Stones emitting light themselves, and Jiang Tao’s keen eyesight.
He would have almost overlooked the smallest one.
A small wooden box was enough to hold them all, and Jiang Tao put it into his jacket pocket.
“That big fish…”
Jiang Tao’s gaze continued towards the small river.
At this moment, the big fish mentioned in the intelligence was still about ten meters away from him.
Jiang Tao continued to walk along the riverbank towards the big fish.
Plop, plop, plop~
Suddenly, he heard the sound of water splashing.
Jiang Tao pointed his powerful flashlight towards the direction of the sound.
Indeed!
A large fish, about the length of an adult’s arm, was making its last struggles inside a fishing trap.
Jiang Tao quickened his pace, stepped forward, and directly reached in to lift a large fish from the water onto the bank.
Slap, slap, slap~
The big fish was still struggling, trying to break free from Jiang Tao’s grip.
“Behave!”
Jiang Tao directly struck the fish’s head with a “iron palm,” instantly knocking it unconscious.
