Chapter 275: Special Item 【 Whitening Face Mask 】!
11:00 PM sharp.
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class slowly stopped downstairs Building 28 of Bai Ge Zhuang New Village.
“Boss, I’ll head back then. See you tomorrow.”
“Go ahead.”
After waving goodbye to Old Jia, Jiang Tao got out of the car.
By the time he returned home, his parents and Jiang Xue had already fallen asleep.
The one who greeted him and opened the door was Xu Li, with a face mask on.
“Honey, you’re back~ You must have worked hard again today.”
“I made you some hangover soup and it’s keeping warm in the kitchen.”
“You go change your clothes first, I’ll get you some soup.”
After speaking, Xu Li turned and walked towards the kitchen.
In no time, she brought out a bowl of soup that looked bright yellow and clear.
After changing into slippers at the door, Jiang Tao sat on the sofa, drinking the hangover soup.
While enjoying a massage from Xu Li’s small hands.
Seeing him, Xu Li seemed to have opened up a floodgate of words.
She whispered to him about her day.
Housework, yoga, exercise, shopping and eating with her mother and sister at the mall.
She shared everything with Jiang Tao, no detail spared.
Jiang Tao was happy to be her audience, only interjecting a few words occasionally, mostly listening.
“Oh right, honey, your precious daughter has been learning painting for ten days and now she doesn’t want to anymore, saying she has no talent for it.”
As they chatted, Xu Li brought up their daughter, Jiang Xue.
When Jiang Xue first came to the Capital City, she had confidently declared that she wanted to learn ballet and become a ballet dancer.
As a result, Jiang Tao had Xu Li enroll her in a dance class near their residential area.
She quit after less than a month, refusing to go any longer.
Then, she started learning the violin, but didn’t even last a month.
This time, she gave up on painting even sooner, after only ten days.
Jiang Tao asked with a smile, “What does she want to learn this time?”
“Badminton.”
Xu Li couldn’t help but chuckle, “She said Wang SiYi in her class is so cool when she plays badminton, and that’s her true passion.”
Jiang Tao laughed, “Haha, then sign her up for a badminton class, let her learn.”
“You’re spoiling your daughter like this.”
Xu Li massaged the trapezius muscles on Jiang Tao’s shoulders. Although she complained, she felt very sweet inside.
“If we don’t spoil our precious daughter, who will we spoil?”
“Only by trying more things can she discover her true interests.”
Jiang Tao said with a smile, a look of self-righteousness on his face.
In fact, he had used the Bole skill to observe Jiang Xue and knew her talent.
But he felt that it was better for her to try and discover it herself than for him to tell her what her talent was.
Jiang Tao strongly agreed with a certain saying.
Every child is a seed.
What kind of seed she is, that’s what she will grow into, what flowers she will bloom, and what fruit she will bear.
Adults only need to provide the environment for growth and sufficient nutrients.
There’s no need to interfere too much with her growth process.
Jiang Tao didn’t have overly high expectations for his little cotton jacket.
He didn’t need to worry about whether she could get into a good university, find a good job, or suffer hardship when she grew up.
By the time Jiang Xue became an adult, he, as her father, would have earned billions, even tens of billions in net worth!
Giving her just a little bit would be enough for her to live a carefree and uninhibited life.
Jiang Xue didn’t need to compete like other children at all; she could just be happy!
Providing a good life for his wife and daughter was also Jiang Tao’s biggest motivation for earning money.
“There’s a badminton court next to the residential area, I’ll take her to have a look after school tomorrow.”
Although Xu Li complained about Jiang Tao spoiling Jiang Xue, she, as the mother, spoiled her even more; she had already scouted out the court.
“Mhm, thank you for your hard work, wife.”
Jiang Tao took Xu Li’s hand, affirming her efforts.
“Honey, you’re the one who works the hardest in our family. The good life we have now is all the result of your struggles.”
Xu Li leaned forward and hugged him from behind, resting her head on his shoulder. Although her face mask hid her expression, her watery eyes were full of affection and happiness.
After the tender moment, Xu Li leaned close to Jiang Tao’s ear and softly breathed,
“Go take a bath quickly, I’ll be waiting for you in the room.”
“Let’s go together.”
Jiang Tao turned and directly scooped Xu Li up in a princess carry, heading towards the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of rushing water and faint, seductive sounds could be heard from the bathroom.
12:00 AM.
Jiang Tao looked at Xu Li, who had fallen asleep from exhaustion next to him. After covering her with a quilt, he moved his mind and opened the Warehouse interface of the intelligence system.
The azure Warehouse interface displayed a grid of small squares placed side by side.
It contained all the special items Jiang Tao had acquired so far.
In the first square was the Monopoly Dice he had obtained from his mother-in-law.
The moment he reached into the square to retrieve the Monopoly Dice, a prompt appeared before him.
Your total revenue from yesterday was 198911.88 yuan, would you like to double it immediately?
Seeing his total revenue from yesterday, Jiang Tao couldn’t help but smile.
Currently, in addition to the Jiang’s Food Factory, the income from Jinwei Welding Materials was also presented as daily income.
Furthermore, Jiang Tao’s investment in Li Ming’s car dealership had also been converted into daily income.
With the addition of these three income streams, Jiang Tao’s daily income was now nearing 200,000!
*Rumble~*
*Tatter tat tat—*
Jiang Tao casually tossed the Monopoly Dice onto the nightstand to his right.
After rolling a few times, the Monopoly Dice finally landed on “6”!
“6x! My luck is good today!”
Seeing the number on the dice, Jiang Tao’s eyes lit up, and a wave of exhilaration washed over him.
*Buzz—*
His phone vibrated. Jiang Tao picked it up and saw the notification of an incoming transfer.
994559.4 yuan has been deposited into your ICBC Savings Card ending in XX, your current balance is 12324566.93 yuan!
Seeing his rapidly declining balance increase by nearly a million, Jiang Tao’s smile was harder to suppress than an AK!
“The next goal is to earn 1 billion!”
“Make Xu Li a wealthy wife, and Xue a Second Generation Rich!”
Looking at his balance, Jiang Tao silently set a goal for himself.
The difficulty of this goal was continuously decreasing as he acquired more and more special items.
After doubling today’s revenue, Jiang Tao moved his mind and opened the system’s information panel to check today’s refreshed intelligence.
Today’s Intelligence 01:
You had contact with Liu Jiafu yesterday, and obtained relevant intelligence—
Liu Jiafu’s adopted son, Liu Jiahao, is not his biological son.
……
“This is a sad story…”
Seeing the first piece of intelligence for the day, Jiang Tao felt a pang of sympathy for the accountant from Xiao Shahe Village.
However, this kind of matter had nothing to do with him.
His relationship with Liu Jiafu was also just so-so.
It was better to have less trouble.
He would just pretend he didn’t see this intelligence.
Jiang Tao didn’t want to get involved in such family matters.
With a thought, he continued to refresh for the second piece of intelligence for the day.
Today’s Intelligence 02:
You had contact with Zhang Zengxi yesterday, and obtained relevant intelligence—
Zhang Zengxi is Liu Jiahao’s biological father.
……
“System Brother, this gossip is quite interesting!”
Seeing the second piece of intelligence for the day, Jiang Tao felt a mix of amusement and exasperation.
Zhang Zengxi was the other Youth League secretary he had met at the Xiao Shahe Village Committee yesterday!
Upon seeing this intelligence, Jiang Tao decided more firmly than ever not to get involved in this mess.
He wouldn’t gain anything and might even offend a bunch of people!
Standing aloof from worldly affairs was the optimal solution!
“Continue! Can we not have such gossip this time? Give me some useful intelligence!”
Seeing that the previous two pieces of intelligence were of no value, Jiang Tao muttered, hoping the third one would be high-value intelligence!
Today’s Intelligence 03:
You had contact with Xu Li yesterday, and obtained relevant intelligence—
The face mask Xu Li used yesterday is a special item.
After obtaining ownership and binding it, you can activate it to refresh random attributes!
……
“Special item!”
Seeing the last piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao’s eyes lit up!
It was exactly what he wished for.
Jiang Tao had a deep appreciation for the power of special items!
As long as the system recognized it as a special item, it definitely had unique qualities!
Just like the Money-Attracting Golden Toad, BeiQi EU5, Delicious Pickled Vegetable Jar, Delicious Clay Pot, and so on, which Jiang Tao had bought before…
Although this item was a bit abstract, a used face mask.
Jiang Tao decided to bind it to see what effect it would have.
As for ownership…
Xu Li had already used the face mask and thrown it away. If he picked it up, it would be his, right?
Thinking this, Jiang Tao immediately rolled out of bed.
Putting on a pair of shorts he wore at home, he walked out of the bedroom towards the bathroom.
When Jiang Tao carried Xu Li into the bathroom earlier, she was still wearing the face mask.
He had thrown that face mask into the bathroom trash can.
Opening the bathroom door and entering.
Jiang Tao immediately saw the used face mask he had thrown in earlier.
Without the system prompt, the face mask looked like any ordinary face mask, with no special features.
Now, when it was recognized as a special item.
In Jiang Tao’s vision, it emitted a dark golden light, looking very textured.
*Click.*
Jiang Tao first locked the bathroom door, then bent down to pick the face mask out of the trash can and washed it with water.
Jiang Tao was already familiar with the process of binding special items and quickly completed the binding.
Congratulations, you have successfully bound the face mask. Would you like to activate the random attribute immediately?
“Yes!”
Without hesitation, Jiang Tao chose to activate it.
The face mask attribute has been refreshed!
After seeing the system panel’s prompt, Jiang Tao looked at the face mask in his hand again.
Item Name: Whitening Face Mask!
Attributes: Hydration +3, Fairness +3! Maintains for 24 hours.
This item can be repurchased after opening the system mall purchase option for 1,000,000. Would you like to open it immediately?
“One million to open the system mall purchase option…”
Although it would cost over a million, Jiang Tao wasn’t heartbroken; instead, he was very happy.
This Whitening Face Mask, in essence, was like his Insomnia Terminator pillow, a special item that could be repurchased.
The effect of the Insomnia Terminator was evident for all to see.
Jiang Tao had already made hundreds of thousands by selling the Insomnia Terminator for the price difference!
This was even without him vigorously promoting it.
The market prospect for the Insomnia Terminator in the future would definitely be even greater, far beyond what he saw now.
It was equivalent to investing 1 million to get a product with super good effects.
It was still quite worthwhile!
It’s known that the cost of research and time for the birth of a best-selling product is not a small sum.
A certain foreign food company, in order to increase the sales of its potato chips.
It spent millions just studying the crunching sound people make when biting into potato chips.
Similarly, the fizzing sound of a carbonated drink opening was also an effect achieved after laboratory researchers spent a huge amount on experimental funding.
“Open it!”
Jiang Tao didn’t hesitate much and chose to open the system mall purchase option without even trying it.
The face mask in his hand was already used by Xu Li and thrown into the trash can.
Although he rinsed it with water after picking it up.
But the thought of putting it on his face again made Jiang Tao psychologically resistant to some extent.
Moreover, he firmly believed that whatever the system produced was a quality product!
This 1 million yuan was going to be spent anyway, and he was definitely going to acquire this Whitening Face Mask product!
Deducting payment, please wait…
Payment successful, system mall purchase option has been opened. Go to the system mall to purchase!
Seeing the prompt on the system panel, Jiang Tao moved his mind and opened the mall interface within the system.
As expected, in addition to the Insomnia Terminator, for which the purchase option had been opened, there was now also a Whitening Face Mask.
Product Name: Whitening Face Mask
Price: 88 yuan!
“88 yuan per sheet, the price isn’t too expensive.”
Although Jiang Tao never used face masks, he had some understanding of their prices.
Because Xu Li used face masks at home every day.
The one she was currently using was an SK2 product, and one sheet cost 120 yuan!
“Let’s test the effect first.”
Although it was very late, Jiang Tao was very excited at this moment and had no sleepiness at all.
With a thought, he purchased a Whitening Face Mask from the system mall.
Then, looking in the mirror, he imitated Xu Li and applied the mask to his face.
The moment the mask touched his face, it felt cool, smooth, and tender, extremely comfortable.
The scent of the essence within was also very pleasant.
At least, Jiang Tao, a tough man, could find no fault with it.
After applying the mask, Jiang Tao walked out of the bathroom and browsed his phone on the living room sofa.
Soon, 10 minutes passed.
Jiang Tao returned to the bathroom again.
The moment he removed the mask from his face, he felt like his face was breathing freely.
The skin on his face also seemed to have come alive, as if it could breathe on its own!
At the same time, he looked in the mirror and saw that his skin seemed much fairer and more tender.
The effect of this Whitening Face Mask was simply invincible!
“I have a premonition, once this product is launched, it will definitely sell like hotcakes!”
Having personally tested the effect of the Whitening Face Mask, Jiang Tao became even more confident in its potential to be a blockbuster product!
