Financial freedom starts with the daily intelligence system!

It was already 7:30 when Jiang Tao and his father-in-law were picked up by his sister-in-law and taken home.

Xu Li also happened to come out of the kitchen carrying a plate of freshly cooked, steaming dumplings.

"Honey, Dad, how did things go?"

Xu Li smiled sweetly at the two most important men in her life, her face full of happiness.

"Haha, the catch was quite impressive, but it was all done by Dad. I was just part of the fun team and went over to play."

"I'll help my wife serve the dumplings."

Jiang Tao laughed and stepped forward to help Xu Li, but she slapped his hand and scolded him playfully:

"Go wash your hands. You're a grown man, and I still have to scold you for not washing your hands before meals."

"Okay~ Yes, ma'am!"

After saying that, Jiang Tao smiled and walked towards the restroom to wash his hands.

Seeing his eldest daughter and son-in-law's loving and sweet relationship, Xu Wencheng was genuinely happy for them.

Wow, so many fish! Dad's really lucky today!

Xu Li glanced at the fish in the bucket her father was carrying, and a look of joy appeared on her face.

"Haha, that's right, the lucky stone Jiang Tao gave Dad is really effective!"

Xu Wencheng said with a smile, not forgetting to show off the precious gift his good son-in-law had given him.

"Yes, that's right. The lucky stones my husband got were all blessed by a master, and they are all very effective."

Xu Li was the first person besides Jiang Tao to experience the effects of the luck-changing stone, and she felt its effects even more deeply than her own father.

"Yes, yes, yes! The lucky stone my brother-in-law gave me is amazing! Sis, I was just about to tell you about it!"

While Xu Li was talking to her father, Xu Sha, who had spent some time parking, finally returned home, looking excited as she said:

"When I went to pick up Dad and my brother-in-law just now, we went to the gas station to fill up, right? When I scanned the receipt, I found a big red envelope worth 88 yuan!"

Xu Li laughed and said, "Really? You're so lucky."

"Yeah, yeah! I thought that thing would only sweep up a few cents at most, but I didn't expect it could sweep up such a big one!"

The little joys in life also make Xu Sha feel very happy.

Back in the capital, Jiang Tao obtained 30 "river stones" of various sizes through information refreshed by Tongzi Ge.

He found a jewelry processing shop and had the 30 river stones crafted into different pieces of jewelry based on their shape and size.

Some are suitable for making bracelets, some for making pendants, and some for making charms.

Jiang Tao gave one to each of his and Xu Li's parents and family members, and instructed them to wear it close to their bodies.

During this period, everyone truly felt the good fortune brought to them by the luck-changing stone.

People naturally trusted him even more.

After a few casual words, dinner officially began.

Du Yongmei knew that Jiang Tao liked to eat dumplings, so she would make him a meal every few days.

The more she looked at her son-in-law, the more satisfied she became. Her attitude towards Jiang Tao was completely different from before; she was almost like Jiang Tao's own mother.

"Mom's cooking skills are much better than those of the pastry chefs in five-star hotels. These dumplings are really well made and delicious!"

While eating the thin-skinned, generously filled beef dumplings, Jiang Tao didn't forget to praise his mother-in-law.

"Hehe, eat more if you like it. We've wrapped quite a lot today."

"When you go back, take some more with you. Make dumplings for Xiaoxue tomorrow morning."

Du Yongmei beamed with joy upon hearing her son-in-law's praise.

Jiang Xue also gave her grandmother a thumbs up and praised her:
"Grandma's dumplings are the best dumplings in the world!"

"Haha, our Xiaoxue has such a sweet tongue~"

Hearing everyone's praise, Du Yongmei felt extremely satisfied, feeling that her hard work today had not been in vain, and that making dumplings had not been a waste of time!

The meal lasted from around 8 o'clock until 9 o'clock.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, my father-in-law went out fishing again, and this time he stayed up all night.

I don't know where Old Xu got such energy from, he's like a young guy spending the whole night at an internet cafe.

After Xu Sha dropped Lao Xu off at the reservoir, she joined her mother, older sister, and brother-in-law for a mahjong game.

Jiang Xue was happily inserting a giant Cogo toy that Xu Li had bought for her.

Blah blah blah~
The group chatted and laughed as they played cards, and before they knew it, it was past 11 p.m.

Xu Li and Jiang Tao will not go home tonight; they will stay overnight at Xu Li's mother's house.

The room where Xu Li lived before she got married is still reserved for her.

The double bed in her room is just right for two people, but a bit crowded for three.

Jiang Xue was sent to her aunt's room to sleep with her aunt.

After taking turns washing up, the group went back to their rooms to sleep.

While waiting on the sofa, Jiang Tao casually put everyone into [sleep mode].

When it was his turn to wash, it was already past midnight.

While brushing his teeth, Jiang Tao opened the daily intelligence system panel on a whim.

Check out today's latest intelligence.

Today's Intelligence 01:
You obtained relevant information while dining at the Magnolia Hotel yesterday.

The bottle of Moutai you drank yesterday is a special item.

Once you acquire ownership, you can activate it and gain random attributes.

……

"A Moutai liquor bottle? A special item?"

Upon seeing the first post that appeared today, Jiang Tao was immediately overjoyed.

Another special item has been found!
What attribute will it be this time?

"Let's go check out the Magnolia Hotel tomorrow; we have to get our hands on that bottle!"

"This thing is just a wine bottle in other people's hands, only Brother Tong can bring out its greatest value."

"What attribute will it be this time? I'm really looking forward to it!"

Although this Moutai bottle wasn't Jiang Tao's first special item, he was still quite excited.

The more of this kind of thing, the better; he wouldn't mind having one every day!

After reading the first piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao already had a plan of action in mind. With a thought, he refreshed the second piece of intelligence.

Today's Intelligence 02:
You had contact with your elder brother Jiang He yesterday and obtained relevant information—

Jiang He's Jiantao Supermarket had long been coveted by Li Yifeng, the nephew of a certain leader in Lizhen.

Jiang He and Zhang Xiaoyan, a married couple, were uneasy and anxious due to the frequent incidents that had occurred in the supermarket recently.

……

"Is the nephew of a town leader eyeing my brother's supermarket?"

"I said that my brother and sister-in-law looked like they had something on their minds when they had lunch together."

"Why didn't you tell me about this?"

Upon seeing the second piece of intelligence that had been updated today, Jiang Tao frowned slightly.

The Jiantao Supermarket in Lizhen, which he took over from Xu Li's cousin Xu Jiantao, was doing quite well.

Earning three or four hundred thousand a year shouldn't be a problem.

Such a lucrative business is bound to attract envious people.

Whether in a big city or a small town, without connections, even if you build a successful business, you'll inevitably end up having your success taken by others.

The experience of my elder brother and sister-in-law is a perfect example.

"Let's go and sort out the trouble with my older brother and sister-in-law tomorrow."

What was a problem that left his elder brother and sister-in-law helpless was not a big deal for Jiang Tao.

He now has powerful backers. Sister Bai Yulan wields considerable influence in Ping County.

For Sister Bai, the little trouble at her brother's supermarket is probably just a matter of a word.

Jiang Tao saved Bai Yulan's life, so asking her to do this little thing shouldn't be difficult for him.

After reading the second intelligence report, Jiang Tao had an idea and continued to read the last intelligence report of the day.

Today's Intelligence 03:
You had contact with your father-in-law, Xu Wencheng, yesterday and obtained relevant information—

The platinum butterfly carp that Xu Wencheng caught while fishing yesterday is a special item.

Once you acquire ownership, you can activate random attributes.

……

"Platinum Butterfly Koi? Yet another special item!"

Upon seeing the last piece of intelligence for the day, Jiang Tao's eyes lit up once again.

This wasn't the first time Jiang Tao had acquired a special item like the Platinum Butterfly Koi, a living creature.

The dog I bought from the old lady downstairs in my neighborhood is one of them.

Wangcai is truly "as good as his name suggests"—he's incredibly lucky!
These days, when Xu Li takes it out for a walk, she brings home quite a few good things.

Things like gold beads, gold rings, gold earrings, and gold pendants are just too outrageous.

With its "wealth-bringing attributes," the auspicious creature can not only support itself but also supplement its household income.

Xu Li and Jiang Xue are now treating it like a precious treasure.

"I'm really lucky today, two special items appeared at once!"

After reading today's three intelligence reports, the smile on Jiang Tao's face was harder to suppress than an AK.

With a thought, I closed the system interface.

Jiang Tao continued brushing his teeth, washing his face, and taking a shower, humming a happy song in his heart.

It took eighteen minutes.

When Jiang Tao finished washing up and put on a set of pajamas, he pushed open the door to the bedroom and found that Xu Li was still awake.

Wearing a black lace nightgown, Xu Li reclined on the edge of the bed in an incredibly alluring pose.

She had just finished showering, and her skin had a faint pinkish hue.

With her alluring expression and captivating eyes, she was practically a reincarnation of Daji.

Old Jiang stopped pretending and instantly transformed into King Zhou, indulging in pleasure.

I have to say, being at my mother-in-law's house feels quite different from being at my own home.

After one hour……

After Xu Li begged for mercy, the rapid breathing inside the room gradually calmed down.

The two whispered to each other for a while before falling asleep in each other's arms.

……

7 a.m. the next day.

"Dad, wake up! The sun's already high in the sky!"

When Jiang Tao was shaken awake, he opened his eyes to see his little darling hugging his arm and shaking him.

"Xiaoxue, Daddy's battery is dead. He needs you to charge it so he can get up."

Old Jiang resorted to his old tricks again, continuing to manipulate his own little darling.

"Tch, do you think I'm a three-year-old?"

Jiang Xue pouted; she was clever enough not to fall for it.

Old Jiang added, "Give Dad a kiss to fully charge Dad, and Dad will buy you a new toy set."

"Really? You'll buy a toy set just for a kiss?"

Jiang Xue's big eyes darted around, and the glint in them gave Old Jiang a bad feeling.

"a man of his words."

Old Jiang now has over 2000 million yuan in his personal savings, so he's very confident.

"Deal! Mum, mum, mum, mum, mum~~~"

Jiang Xue stepped forward, pressed down on Lao Jiang's face, and showered him with kisses.

"Hey, Jiang Xue, you're being unethical! I'm already fully charged, I'm going to explode if I keep charging!"

"Hahaha! You kissed me 10 times in total, so you owe me 10 sets of toys! No backing out~"

After tricking her father, Jiang Xue let out a silvery laugh, looking incredibly smug.

"Honey, Xiaoxue, stop fooling around and hurry up and get dressed so we can eat. It'll get cold soon."

Xu Li watched her husband and daughter laughing and playing, her face also filled with a happy smile.

After playing around for a while, Jiang Tao started getting dressed and getting out of bed.

Brushing your teeth and washing your face only takes five or six minutes in total.

After finishing his personal hygiene, he sat down at the dining table to eat with his father-in-law and his family of three.

"By the way, Dad, is that platinum butterfly carp we caught yesterday still around?"

While eating dumplings, Jiang Tao glanced at his father-in-law, Xu Wencheng, and asked casually.

"Yes, I put it in a big basin on the balcony. Why are you asking about this all of a sudden?"

After finishing the dumpling in his mouth, Xu Wencheng looked at Jiang Tao with some curiosity.

Jiang Tao laughed and said, "Xiaoxue likes raising fish, right? This time when I go to Beijing, I plan to get a big fish tank at home for her to raise fish. I think that platinum butterfly koi is quite beautiful, and I want to keep it in the fish tank as well."

"Haha, take it if you want, why are we being so polite?"

Upon hearing Jiang Tao's words, Xu Wencheng waved his hand magnanimously and readily gave it to him.

"Okay! I don't know much about raising fish. After dinner, Dad, can you find me something to separate it from the other fish?"

Since it was something that Brother Tongzi had identified as a special item, Jiang Tao also attached great importance to that platinum butterfly carp.

"Okay, no problem. Honey, I remember we have a small fish tank at home, where did you put it?"

Xu Wencheng looked at his wife and asked her a question. He valued the matter entrusted to him by his son-in-law more than his own affairs.

"You mean the one we used to have? I put it in the basement."

"Okay, I'll go to the basement to get it after dinner and make room for that platinum butterfly koi."

"Excuse me, Dad."

"Hey kid, why are you being so polite with your dad!"

"Haha, that's not just being polite, it's just courteousness~"

The group chatted and laughed as they finished their breakfast quickly.

After finishing his meal, Xu Wencheng took the elevator down to the basement on the first basement floor and rummaged through the drawers and cabinets until he found a rectangular glass fish tank.

The fish tank is approximately 60 cm long, 30 cm wide, and 30 cm high.

The platinum butterfly carp I caught yesterday was only the size of my palm.

Although the fish tank isn't big, it's big enough for it to frolic in.

[Ownership of the Platinum Butterfly Koi has been acquired and successfully bound. Do you wish to activate its attributes immediately?]

The moment Jiang Tao finished changing the fish tank for the platinum butterfly koi, a notification flashed on his retina.

"Yes! Activate!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Tao directly chose to activate the attributes of the Platinum Butterfly Carp.

Name: Platinum Butterfly Koi

[Attribute]: Lucky Koi!

[Result]: It can generate a fixed income of 1 yuan per day!

[Note]: This income cannot be doubled using the Monopoly Dice! (End of Chapter)
