Chapter 155: The Distribution of Old Sun's Inheritance. (3-in-1, please subscribe!)

After the excitement.

Xu Li jogged back to her bedroom and retrieved a bank card.

In her words, bank cards are closely linked to money.

Using a bank card to scratch for prizes increases the chances of winning a big prize.

While there's no scientific basis for this, there is a metaphysical basis!

The scratch-off lottery ticket that Jiang Tao brought back was called "Ten Times the Luck".

The gameplay is also very simple.

There is a "winning number" in the bottom left corner.

Scratch off the covering film. If any of your "My Numbers" matches the "Winning Numbers", you will receive the prize shown on the far right.

If you scratch off the number "10" in the "My Numbers" area, you will win ten times the prize money corresponding to that number!
You can win multiple prizes.

For a period last year, Jiang Tao also pinned his hopes on the lottery, dreaming of becoming rich overnight.

When I go to the lottery shop to buy lottery tickets, I sometimes also buy a scratch-off ticket to see if I get lucky.

His favorite type of scratch-off lottery ticket is the "Ten Times the Luck" type.

He also won a big prize of 500 yuan once.

You probably wouldn't win the grand prize in the Double Color Ball lottery unless you have some connection with the director.

But quite a few people have actually won big prizes with these scratch-off lottery tickets.

Of course, whether those previous reports were true or had any inside stories is impossible to verify.

But Jiang Tao is 100% certain that this photo is real; he is definitely not related to any director.

"Come here, my dear wife, let me bestow some blessings upon you~"

Jiang Tao smiled, took Xu Li's hand, kissed the back of her hand, and rubbed it back and forth.

"Open up!"

"Ok!"

Xu Li nervously scratched off the "winning number" in the lower left corner, revealing a "21".

Then, she began scratching the prize row by row from top to bottom.

The prize for the first line, "My Numbers," is 30 yuan; all winnings have been wiped out!

The second line corresponds to 100 yuan, and once again all of them are wiped out!
The third line, still no wins.

Seeing that the winning amount in the fourth line was 1000, Xu Li instantly felt that she had lost this time as well.

She had also played scratch-off lottery tickets and knew some of the patterns involved.

The larger the corresponding prize amount, the lower the winning probability, and vice versa.

If all the subsequent winning amounts are 10 yuan.

That scratch-off ticket could easily win you at least 100 yuan!

"Honey, you can finish the rest... Looks like I'm having a bad day."

Xu Li scratched half of a scratch card but didn't win 10 yuan, so she was a little discouraged and didn't want to scratch anymore.

As she spoke, she handed the bank card in her hand to Jiang Tao, wanting him to scratch off the remaining amount.

"This is just the beginning! There's much more to come, let's keep going."

Jiang Tao didn't take the bank card Xu Li handed him, but smiled and encouraged her to keep scratching.

"OK then!"

Xu Li adjusted her mood and started scratching again.

When Xu Li saw that the winning amount in the 5th row was 10 yuan, her eyes lit up!
Maybe this will work!

As a result... I was greatly disappointed again; I still didn't manage to scratch "21"!
The sixth and seventh rows were also completely wiped out.

The winning amount revealed on the eighth line is 400000.

Xu Li gave up immediately, too lazy to even scrape off the previous coating.

Although everyone dreams of winning 40, when you actually win that prize, everyone subconsciously feels it's impossible.

Jiang Tao swallowed hard as he watched.

This is the first time he has ever won such a big prize from a scratch-off lottery ticket!
Fu Zi really gave it to me!
Xu Li was completely absorbed in the scratch-off lottery tickets and didn't notice the change in Jiang Tao's expression.

She took a deep breath and continued scraping the ninth and tenth lines below.

As expected, they were "defeated" once again.

"It's gone. I was so looking forward to it for nothing."

Xu Li didn't manage to scrape out a "21" even after scraping the last line.

He reluctantly stuffed his bank card into the pocket of his tight jeans, ready to end today's battle.

Jiang Tao looked at Xu Li and said with a smile:

"There's still one line left to scrape, maybe that's where you'll find the winning line."

"Honey, I've noticed you're quite ambitious. That's 40!"

Upon hearing Jiang Tao's words, Xu Li smiled, the gloom on her face vanished instantly, and she felt a sense of relief.

This is just a 10-yuan scratch-off lottery ticket.

Even if you don't win a single dollar, you'll only lose 10 dollars.

It's not worth getting upset over such a small thing.

"What's there to be afraid of? You can't just throw it away without even scraping it off."

"It's better to be safe than sorry. What if I win?"

Jiang Tao's gaze blazed with fervor as he looked at the scratch-off lottery ticket in his hand, which gleamed with a dark golden light.

"That's right, then you can shave it."

As Xu Li spoke, she handed the bank card in her hand to Jiang Tao.

"Let's scrape together and combine our luck."

Jiang Tao didn't reach out to take the bank card; instead, he directly grasped her slender, fair hand.

The moment Jiang Tao grabbed her hand, Xu Li looked at him, her smile becoming even brighter and more captivating.

"okay!"

Xu Li chuckled and nodded, and the two began shaving from the front.

The first number I scratched was "23", but I didn't win.

"Oh dear! Just a little bit less! If it were just two seconds smaller, our family would be rich!"

23 and 21 are very, very close, but the difference between them is also very, very significant.

After a moment of regret, Xu Li continued scraping the back.

Soon, the second-to-last number was also revealed.

“21!!!”

Xu Li exclaimed in surprise when she saw the numbers that were scratched off.

Her peach blossom eyes widened in disbelief as she covered her mouth with her hand.

"Honey, we've won the lottery!"

"Oh my god! Am I... am I dreaming?!"

Xu Li closed her eyes, rubbed them hard, and then opened them again!

I wasn't dreaming!

Really hit!

And it's 40!!

Even an average person might not be able to save up this much money in ten years!

I managed to scrape it off so easily!

Excitement, exhilaration, and joy!
At this moment, it's difficult to accurately describe Xu Li's feelings in a single word!
"My wife is amazing! Her luck is unbelievable!"

Although Jiang Tao already knew the "plot," he still pretended to be very surprised.

"This, this, this..."

"Oh my god, am I seeing things?!"

Xu Li rubbed her eyes again, then opened them again, her gaze darting between the "winning numbers," "my numbers," and the prize money!
"We won! We really won, honey! We won! 40!!"

After confirming it several times, Xu Li hugged Jiang Tao's head and showered him with kisses!
Xu Li was excited for a while before her emotions gradually calmed down and she returned to normal.

Jiang Tao suggested, "We don't have anything else to do this morning, let's go claim the prize and put it in our pockets."

"Yes, yes! I only feel at ease when I have the money in my hands!"

Xu Li chuckled and nodded in agreement with Jiang Tao's suggestion.

The two hit it off immediately and went downstairs with the winning scratch card.

We drove straight to the lottery prize redemption center in Beijing.

Along the way, Xu Li chattered excitedly about her joy, she was overjoyed.

At 10:46 a.m., Jiang Tao and Xu Li arrived at the welfare lottery prize redemption center in Beijing.

Both of them were wearing baseball caps, sunglasses, and masks, fully armed like celebrities going out.

With the guidance of the staff, the two successfully redeemed their prize.

I paid 20% income tax on the spot, and the after-tax bonus was 32 yuan!

When they got back to the car after claiming the prize, Xu Li excitedly hugged Jiang Tao's neck again and showered him with kisses on the face.

"Honey, you're amazing! We made 32 yuan in just one day!"

"If every day is like today, we can buy our big villa sooner!"

"You're dreaming, but we can't expect to encounter this kind of thing every day."

As Jiang Tao started the car, he chuckled and made a joke.

"Honey, do you think this is also related to our lucky stones?"

Xu Li reached out and pulled the "lucky stone" she wore on her chest out of her collar, liking it more and more as she looked at it.

"It must have a lot to do with it. I always said that our luck-changing stones are very effective."

"Yes, yes! I believe it! Our family's fortunes will be incredibly good after the New Year!"

Xu Li now has a general understanding of the effects of the luck-changing stone and has sensed its unusual nature.

After claiming their prize, the two returned to Baigezhuang residential area at noon.

My parents went to Lao Sun's place and haven't come back yet.

Xu Li originally wanted to prepare something at home.

Jiang Tao suggested ordering takeout, since his parents probably hadn't eaten yet.

The two didn't even go home; they drove straight to Building 79, knocked on the door, and entered Old Sun's house.

Originally, Jiang Tao thought that the atmosphere at home would be very depressing in the face of life and death.

But upon entering, they found Old Sun chatting happily with his parents, all with smiles on their faces.

"Disciple, Lily, you've arrived. Please have a seat."

When Sun Xiaobao saw Jiang Tao and Xu Li, the smile on his face softened a bit.

"master."

"Master Sun."

After greeting Sun Xiaobao, Jiang Tao and Xu Li sat down on two old-looking high stools by the bed.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Tao's takeout arrived.

They are all simple, convenient, and healthy home-style stir-fries and rice dishes.

I also ordered a bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, which is suitable for Lao Sun, as well as a steamed sea bass.

Late-stage liver cancer causes significant physical depletion, so it's important to supplement with high-quality protein.

My parents went to the supermarket this morning and bought a lot of nutritional powder and protein powder.

When it came to the lottery, the two of them were far less lucky than Jiang Tao, only managing to win a few bags of salt. After lunch, they waited a while longer.

Around 2pm.

Two new guests have arrived at our home.

One of them is a lawyer from the Beijing Ziqian Law Firm named Zhang Yingjie.

Another witness was a woman in her thirties from the same law firm named Liu Qiao.

A week ago, Zhang Yingjie received Sun Xiaobao's will and assisted him in making the will and distributing his assets.

Upon arriving home and seeing Jiang Tao and the others inside, Zhang Yingjie and Liu Qiao couldn't help but feel envious!
Despite having no blood relation whatsoever, they were able to inherit a huge sum of money from the client.

This family is so lucky!

What’s the difference between this and picking it up for free!
Sun Xiaobao owns a total of five apartments in the Baigezhuang New Village area.

The largest apartment he currently lives in is a north-south facing unit with an area of ​​120 square meters.

There is another apartment on the 15th floor of building number 78 next door, with an area of ​​110 square meters.

There are three three-bedroom apartments, each with an area of ​​100 square meters, located on the upper and lower floors of Building 103.

There are a total of 5 apartments, with a total area of ​​530 square meters.

Sun Xiaobao gifted the apartment he currently lives in and the two apartments in the neighboring building No. 78 to Jiang Wen and Tian Xiaomei, respectively.

The three apartments in Building 103 were given to Jiang Tao and his family of three.

Of the 232 million yuan in savings under his name, he gave 100 million yuan to Jiang Tao and his wife.

The remaining 132 million was given to Jiang Wen and his wife, Tian Xiaomei.

Sun Xiaobao's actions left Jiang Tao's family somewhat flattered.

The 530-square-meter property in Beijing plus this 232 million yuan in cash.

The total value is approximately 3000 million!

"Old Sun, this gift is too generous of you, how can we possibly accept it..."

Jiang Wen, holding Sun Xiaobao's hand, felt a little dizzy from being hit by this huge pie falling from the sky!
Before today, Jiang Wen was just an ordinary elderly man from the countryside.

Before the Lunar New Year, I did odd jobs with a contractor, working myself to the bone for a day, and I only earned 150 yuan.

He never dreamed that one day he would own two apartments in Beijing and have millions in savings!

For him, this was like a meteoric rise to the top!
Tian Xiaomei, who was standing to the side, was also stunned.

She truly hadn't expected that Old Sun would prepare such a generous gift for her family before his death.

"Old Jiang, to have met your family and made such a good friend like you at the end of my life, my life has been worthwhile."

"You don't need to be polite with me. These things can't be taken with you when you die. If I don't give them to you, they'll be confiscated."

"From now on, just remember to burn some paper money for me every Qingming Festival and Spring Festival."

Sun Xiaobao patted Jiang Wen's hand, a relieved smile on his face.

"Ugh!"

Jiang Wen sighed deeply, his eyes filled with sympathy as he looked at Sun Xiaobao.

"Don't worry, Lao Sun, from now on I'll treat you like my own brother!"

This was the last bit of assurance Jiang Wen could give Sun Xiaobao.

In the presence of lawyer Zhang Yingjie and witness Liu Qiao.

Sun Xiaobao's will has been officially signed and has legal effect.

Five days after signing the will,
On March 11th, Sun Xiaobao passed away at home at the age of 66.

Sun Xiaobao lived a lonely and destitute life without any relatives. Jiang Tao, his parents, and Xu Li took care of his funeral arrangements.

They spent 26 yuan to buy him a high-class burial plot at Longquan Cemetery in Nanxingshou.

They also paid a one-time service fee for 20 years.

On March 18th, after the cremation was completed, the body was moved to the cemetery.

Unfortunately, the weather wasn't cooperating; it drizzled today.

Jiang Tao, along with his father Jiang Wen, mother Tian Xiaomei, wife Xu Li, younger sister Jiang Bing, and daughter Jiang Xue.

Each member of the family held a black umbrella.

The group stepped forward one by one, and one person placed a bunch of yellow and white carnations in front of Sun Xiaobao's tombstone.

"Rest in peace, Master. May you be reunited with your family and enjoy happiness in the afterlife."

He also had genuine feelings for this "fake mentor," Jiang Tao.

Old Sun left tens of millions of assets to his family; this kindness is something to be remembered for a lifetime.

"Brother Sun, if there is an afterlife, I hope we can meet again sooner and be brothers once more."

"Master Sun..."

"Grandpa Sun..."

After saying goodbye to Sun Xiaobao, everyone turned and left.

On the tombstone, Sun Xiaobao's smiling portrait looks at the departing figures of everyone, as if his smile is even brighter.

His life story thus came to a complete close.

After a few days of feeling down, Jiang Tao and his family gradually emerged from their grief and resumed their normal work and life.

After Du Ennan made arrangements with acquaintances, the trademark registration for Jiang's Food Co., Ltd. was officially completed, and all the company's procedures were also completed.

Jiang Tao is the chairman of the board, and his father, Jiang Wen, is the legal representative. Jiang Bing is the second largest shareholder, holding 10% of the shares.

The standardized operating workshop of the processing plant has been put into use, and the stalls in the vegetable market have also been renovated.

After paying respects to Old Sun in the morning, my parents started their business at the vegetable market in the afternoon, officially opening their Jiang Family Eight Treasures Pickles.

"Jiang's Eight Treasure Pickles are delicious and tasty. Come and have a look and try them."

A small loudspeaker sits on a small table in front of Jiang's Eight Treasures Pickles stall in the market.

Xu Li's clear and melodious voice kept coming from inside.

On the table, a plate of Jiang's Eight Treasures Pickles was displayed as a sample, covered upside down by a transparent glass cover.

"These eight-treasure pickles look pretty good, quite appetizing! Old Liu, would you like some?"

"It's really good! Have some! My husband loves this!"

Two aunties who were shopping for groceries together saw the Jiang's Eight Treasures Pickles displayed on the small table and went into the store together.

but……

As soon as the two entered the room, they saw the price list posted on the wall and instantly felt like they had come to the wrong place.

Without saying a word, he turned around and went out again.

"Good heavens! A single eight-treasure pickled vegetable costs 99 yuan! That's highway robbery!"

"He could have easily robbed you, but he still gave you a pound of eight-treasure pickles!"

"That's too expensive! Do they think they're some kind of high-end restaurant? They really dare to charge such high prices!"

As the two middle-aged women left, they were still muttering and complaining under their breath, leaving Jiang Wen and Tian Xiaomei staring at each other with slightly embarrassed expressions.

This afternoon, the two of them had heard far too many complaints about Jiang's Eight Treasures Pickles.

They know the current price is high, but anyone who has tried it will definitely feel it's worth every penny!
"What should we do, honey? It seems like the customers aren't accepting our prices..."

The afternoon was almost over, and the store's sales hadn't even broken 0 yuan yet.

A hint of anxiety appeared on Tian Xiaomei's face.

The Jiang family's Eight Treasures Pickles, priced at 99 yuan per jin (500g), are indeed very discouraging!

"Let's take it slow! It will take time for people to accept this price."

"You know the quality of our Eight Treasure Pickles. They taste better than Liubiju's Eight Treasure Pickles and are definitely worth the price."

"Even if sales haven't picked up yet, we can't lower the price."

Although Jiang Wen felt somewhat frustrated, he had absolute confidence in the quality of Jiang's Eight Treasures Pickles.

Their family has been eating Jiang's Eight Treasures Pickles for almost half a month now, every day—for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I could eat it three times a day and never get tired of it.

This eight-treasure pickled vegetable is so delicious that anyone who tries it will fall in love with it and become a loyal customer of Jiang's Eight-Treasure Pickled Vegetables.

I waited until 6 p.m., but the store was still deserted and I hadn't made a single sale.

The elderly couple had no choice but to pack up and close their shop, planning to try again tomorrow.

The vegetable market is only two or three hundred meters away from Baigezhuang residential area.

The two of them bought the ingredients they would cook for dinner at the market.

It was only 6:30 when I got home, and Jiang Tao and Jiang Bing had also left for work one after the other.

At 7:30 p.m., a sumptuous dinner was served.

One serving of stir-fried dried tofu with celery, one serving of braised prawns, one serving of stewed beef brisket with tomatoes, plus one serving of shredded pork with garlic sauce.

Of course, we can't forget the Jiang family's Eight Treasures Pickles, which are a must-have for every meal these days!

Whether you're eating noodles, rice, or steamed buns, any staple food pairs perfectly with Eight Treasure Pickles!

"Dad, it's a shame you're not running a restaurant with such good cooking skills! This shredded pork with garlic sauce is amazing!"

"It tastes just like it did when I was a kid!"

While eating, Jiang Bing smiled and gave her father a thumbs-up, praising him.

"Hehe, eat more if it's delicious."

Jiang Wen smiled, feeling a great sense of accomplishment as he watched everyone enjoy the dishes he had cooked.

What was said in jest was taken seriously by Jiang Tao, who thought of the information about his father that had appeared earlier.

"Once everything at Babao Pickles is on track, I'll open a restaurant for my parents and fulfill their long-cherished wish."

As Jiang Tao shoveled rice into his bowl, he was still thinking about opening a restaurant for his father.

"By the way, Dad, didn't you and Mom go to the market this afternoon to sell eight-treasure pickles? How were the sales?"

Jiang Bing picked up a piece of pickled cucumber from the plate and casually asked a question.

"Uh……"

Hearing his daughter's question, Jiang Wen blushed slightly, feeling quite embarrassed!
In an entire afternoon, not a single pound had been sold, which was somewhat embarrassing.

"We haven't even opened for business this afternoon. As soon as customers walk in and see our prices, they all run away."

"Second brother, third brother, shouldn't we think of some other way?"

Tian Xiaomei didn't feel embarrassed at all; everyone present was her son and family.

The facts are as they are; there's nothing to hide or be embarrassed about.

"What do you think, third brother?"

Jiang Tao looked at Jiang Bing and asked for her opinion.

"I see...that makes things easier!"

Jiang Bing had a sudden inspiration and said:

"We can give everyone a free sample first! Anyone who tries our Eight Treasure Pickles will definitely buy them again!"

Try before you buy is a very common promotional tactic.

Many snack and food vendors often launch large-scale promotional activities when they first open to increase their brand awareness.

For example, you can buy fried chicken legs for a few cents or roast duck for a few dollars on a certain platform.

The business may seem to be losing money to gain publicity, but they are not stupid at all. They are simply using the money spent on advertising to give benefits to customers.

In this way, you can achieve the effect of publicity, give discounts to customers, and gain a good reputation. It's a win-win-win situation.

This simple and direct advertising method is quite suitable for Jiang's Eight Treasures Pickles.

Jiang Tao made the decision directly:
"The third brother's idea is good. Let's send it tomorrow according to her method."

"We'll give each person a small box to try out. We'll give them out for three days first, and then we'll officially start selling them after that."

"Our Jiang's Eight Treasure Pickles are no problem. We'll definitely be able to open up the market for Eight Treasure Pickles in Beijing. It's just a matter of time!"

As Jiang Tao spoke, he picked up a piece of radish and put it in his mouth, chewing it with relish.
