Financial freedom starts with the daily intelligence system!

I returned home carrying a bottle of Moutai liquor that gleamed with a dark golden light.

Jiang Tao locked the door from the inside.

After crossing the courtyard, we entered the living room.

He plopped down on the sofa and placed the Moutai bottle on the coffee table in front of him.

[Having already acquired ownership of the Moutai bottle, do you wish to bind and activate it immediately?]

"Yes!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Tao directly chose to bind the wine bottle and activate it.

[With no third-party observers nearby, binding can proceed...]

Seeing the warning message on his retina, Jiang Tao knew it was time for him to bleed again.

He opened the back cover of the phone and took out the needle that had hurt him time and time again.

First, take out a lighter and heat it to disinfect it.

After the temperature dropped, he gritted his teeth and stabbed his left and right thumbs.

After the stabbing, he squeezed his right hand hard and squeezed out a drop of bright red blood.

Jiang Tao skillfully dripped the blood from his finger onto the Moutai bottle in front of him.

Tick ​​tock!

As blood dripped down, a crimson veil enveloped the entire bottle.

[Item successfully bound, activating attributes, please wait...]

[Item attributes have been activated. Please refresh.]

Seeing the two consecutive notification messages appear on his retina, Jiang Tao looked at the wine bottle in front of him.

【Item Name】: Bottle of Ambrosia

[Attribute]: Prolongs life.

[Production Capacity]: 1000 ml/day!
[Note 1]: Drinking 10ml of the elixir daily can prolong life and increase lifespan by 1 hour.

[Note 2]: Each person can only trigger the longevity effect once per day.

"A precious elixir that can prolong life!"

Upon seeing the system's description of the elixir, Jiang Tao's eyes lit up at first, then went dark.

This life-extending effect is just too...

Only one hour?

This effect is far inferior to Jiang Tao's holly tree!
However, the life-extending effects of holly only apply to Jiang Tao himself.

This elixir can be effective on anyone, which is slightly better than the holly tree elixir.

“1天1小时，10天就是10小时，365天也就是365个小时，折合下来是15天多一点？”

"In other words, one would have to drink this elixir continuously for a year to gain 15 days more lifespan?"

"This effect..."

"That's not bad!"

"After all, time is money."

"If something that can extend lifespan were exposed, it would definitely cause a global sensation."

"Let alone the fact that drinking it continuously for a year will only add 15 days to life, even if it only adds 1 day, there are still plenty of people who would buy it."

Jiang Tao picked up the bottle and shook it. The bottle, which had been empty just moments before, now made a gurgling sound as the liquid inside collided.

"We have wine!"

Hearing the noise inside the bottle, Jiang Tao first brought his nose to the bottle opening and took a deep breath.

A peculiar fragrance traveled from my nasal cavity straight to my forehead.

"It smells so good!"

The aroma of the wine in the bottle is elegant and delicate, full-bodied and mellow, with a subtle and lingering fragrance. Just one whiff is enough to leave a lasting impression.

"It looks a bit like those jars of Daughter's Red wine that I sold to Old Lu before?"

Smelling the aroma of fine wine, Jiang Tao suddenly remembered the jars of Daughter's Red wine he had dug out of the courtyard of a house near Xiaoshahe.

The two taste about 70-80% similar, but today's nectar is clearly superior.

"Let me try some first and see how it tastes!"

Jiang Tao immediately picked up a clear glass from a tray on the coffee table and poured himself a glass.

A golden liquid gushed from the bottle opening, appearing sticky and viscous.

After being poured from the bottle, the aroma that Jiang Tao had just smelled became even stronger, filling the entire room with the scent of wine.

"It smells so good, it's almost making me dizzy!"

Jiang Tao picked up the wine glass in front of him and examined it carefully. Looking at the thick, golden liquid inside, which resembled liquid gold, he swallowed excitedly.

This stuff looks delicious, and it must taste amazing too!

Nourishing~
Jiang Tao touched his lips to the wine glass and took a small sip.

As the nectar entered his mouth, Jiang Tao's eyes lit up again!
"Delicious! This stuff is so good!"

Jiang Tao held the fine wine in his mouth for a long while before finally swallowing it.

He loved the taste after just one bite!

Even Moutai, the king of baijiu, pales in comparison to this fine liquor; its taste is far inferior!

"My darling, my precious darling!"

"This thing..."

After seeing, smelling, and tasting, Jiang Tao gained a more intuitive understanding of the quality of the fine wine.

As expected, anything produced by Brother Tongzi is guaranteed to be top-notch!
This stuff is miles ahead of Moutai in quality!
Absolutely the best of the best!
In addition, it also has the effect of "prolonging life".

Even if this stuff sells for 1 yuan a bottle, Jiang Tao would still feel like he's losing money!

"Brother Tongzi said that drinking just 10ml a day can help prolong life."

"Wouldn't it be easier to sell if I made it into 10ml mini bottles?"

Looking at the golden liquid in the glass in his hand, Jiang Tao was filled with a myriad of thoughts.

He has already started considering sales strategies for [the elixir].

As for the price…

He hasn't made up his mind yet.

Moreover, he couldn't discuss this with anyone; he had to make the decision himself.

He was too busy guarding the secret of the "Jade Elixir Bottle" to keep up with it.

Naturally, it wouldn't be revealed to others.

Moreover, the effects of elixirs on prolonging life are not obvious.

Even if he tells the truth, no one is sure he'll believe him.

Which of those health supplement sellers on the market doesn't boast about how amazing their products are and how effective they are?

Therefore, Jiang Tao does not intend to promote the "miracle wine" in a big way.

It would be a bit embarrassing if people mistook it for a health supplement.

"It's best not to mention the effect of prolonging life."

"As for pricing, it can only be based on its taste and quality."

"In terms of positioning, it's better to go for the high-end price. It's only 1000ml a day. If you switch to a regular one-jin (2ml) wine bottle, it's only two bottles."

"This is such a small thing, it's not worth making a big fuss about."

After a brief moment of thought, Jiang Tao had a general idea in mind.

Ultimately, he abandoned the idea of ​​changing to smaller vials and opted for a high-end approach.

10ml is too little; it's not even enough to drink in one gulp, so how can you taste anything?

Having made up his mind, Jiang Tao found a clean plastic bucket at home.

Tons tons tons~
He poured all the wine from the "Jade Elixir Bottle" into a plastic bucket, filling it to almost half full!
"This thing is pretty amazing; it can even be used as a magic prop!"

I saw that nearly 1000ml, or about 2 jin, was poured out of the 1 jin bottle.

Jiang Tao was also full of amazement. After pouring the wine, he looked at the golden liquid in the plastic bucket, which resembled peanut oil.

Jiang Tao ultimately resisted the urge to drink a few more sips.

This stuff tastes good, but now is not the time.

He still has to drive to his mother-in-law's house for lunch later.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Tao found a plastic bucket and divided the previously poured-out nectar into two portions.

After distributing the wine, he carried two buckets of wine out the door.

I put one of the buckets in the trunk of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, intending to take it to my father-in-law's house later to share with Xu Li and the others.

Jiang Tao carried the remaining bucket towards his parents' house.

"Oh? Xiao Tao, what brings you here? Where are Lily and Xiao Xue?"

When Jiang Tao's mother, Tian Xiaomei, saw him return alone, she immediately looked behind him with a puzzled expression.

"They went shopping and had fun with Grandma Xiaoxue and the others. I'm coming back to bring you and Dad some things."

"My aunt is here too."

Jiang Tao greeted his mother and then greeted Tian Mingrong, who was standing next to her.

"Good morning, Xiao Tao."

Tian Mingrong also smiled and greeted Jiang Tao, his attitude very friendly.

What are you carrying in your hand?

After exchanging greetings, Tian Xiaomei looked at the plastic bucket Jiang Tao was carrying with curiosity and asked him a question.

"I got some good stuff from a good friend, some old wine."

“My friend said that drinking this regularly can be good for your health, so you and Dad can have a small glass every day from now on.”

"By the way, the food is good, but don't overindulge; too much is not good either."

As Jiang Tao spoke, he handed the plastic bucket in his hand to his mother.

"Old wine? This is wine? I thought it was cooking oil."

Tian Xiaomei took the plastic bucket from Jiang Tao and shook it gently.

Looking at the viscous liquid inside, it doesn't look like alcohol at all; it looks more like cooking oil.

"Where are my dad and uncle? I don't see them."

Jiang Tao glanced around but didn't see his father's uncle, so he asked him a question out of curiosity.

"They went to our old family house."

"The old house was half destroyed by heavy rain last year, and several sections of the wall also collapsed."

"Your uncle is planning to renovate the old house so that he will have a place to stay when he comes home in the future."

When she mentioned her old family home, Tian Xiaomei felt a pang of sadness.

Although the old house was dilapidated, it held too many memories for her and her younger brother, Tian Xiaoguang.

In the past, looking at their dilapidated old house, she and her brother wanted to rebuild it, but they lacked the resources.

After all, building a house these days is different from what it was a decade or two ago.

More than a decade ago, when someone built a house, their relatives and friends in the village would all come to help.

Back then, we only talked about friendship, not money. We only needed to provide two meals a day, and we didn't have to pay a penny for our work.

Bricks and cement are also very cheap.

You can build a small courtyard house and move in for a maximum of 30,000 to 40,000 yuan.

These days, let alone buying an apartment in a county town.

Even building a house in the countryside can cost tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan.

This is even under the condition of saving money in every aspect.

If you want to use the best quality products for everything, the price will have to be several times higher!
"It's long overdue to renovate. No matter how nice a house is in the city, it's still just a house; a house in the village is a home."

"Mom, you can chat with your aunt. I'll go check on my dad and my uncle."

After saying that, Jiang Tao stopped chatting with his mother and aunt, turned around, went out, and drove towards Tianjiazhuang.

He knew the road to Tianjiazhuang very well.

When my maternal grandparents were still alive, my mother often took my two sons to visit other people's homes.

Back then, let alone cars, even motorcycles weren't very common.

The mother and her two children all walked there.

When the third child got tired, the eldest and second eldest brothers took turns carrying him.

In those years, everyone lived in poverty, but the bond between brothers and sisters was incredibly pure.

Later, my maternal grandparents passed away one after another, and my uncle also moved to the cattle farm for work.

Jiang Tao and his two brothers rarely visited their maternal grandmother's house anymore.

Grandma is gone, and the feeling of home has changed.

The old house gradually fell into disrepair and eventually became a dangerous building that the village was focusing on, making it completely uninhabitable.

Before meeting Tian Mingrong, Tian Xiaoguang had already resigned himself to being a bachelor for life.

He naturally couldn't bear to spend tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan to renovate the old house.

Besides, he doesn't have that much money on hand.

By chance, Tian Xiaoguang and Tian Mingrong, who are in love, reunite at Jiang Tao's urging and quickly fall in love again.

Tian Xiaoguang is now starting to make plans for himself, Tian Mingrong, and their unborn child.

From a bachelor who only had himself to feed, to someone who is about to get married and become a father.

Giving my wife and children a home is my top priority.

After discussing it for a long time, Tian Xiaoguang and Tian Mingrong finally decided to sell the old, dilapidated apartment that Tian Mingrong had bought in the county town.

With this money, I will build a house on the original site of my old house in Tianjiazhuang, my hometown.

When Jiang Tao drove into Tianjiazhuang, it immediately caused a commotion among the intelligence team at the village entrance.

"Another Mercedes, could it be heading to Tian Xiaoguang's house again?"

"Why aren't they going back? I think they're heading in the direction of Tian Xiaoguang's house."

"That old bastard Tian Xiaoguang has really made something of himself now! Who would have thought he'd have this kind of luck in his old age!"

"I've seen Tian Xiaoguang's wife. She's really beautiful. None of the old women in Tianjiazhuang can compare to her."

"I heard it's because of his sister's nephew that he's going to work in Beijing after the holiday."

"That's fate! I used to be the one laughing at others, but now I'm the one laughing at others who's the biggest joke!"

"I wish I had a nephew who was that capable! Maybe I could benefit from his success too!"

A group of elderly men and women at the village entrance watched the direction Jiang Tao drove off in, their words filled with envy for Tian Xiaoguang.

crunch~
Jiang Tao drove to the entrance of the alley where his mother's old house was located, parked the car, and got out.

After getting off the bus and entering the alley, it took less than a minute to walk to a dilapidated, low-rise house.

Compared to the newly built concrete houses of the neighbors, my grandmother's old house looked even more dilapidated.

Seeing the wooden door wide open, Jiang Tao stepped into the courtyard.

As soon as I entered, I saw my dad and uncle standing in the yard pointing towards the main house, as if they were planning something.

"Dad, Uncle."

Upon hearing Jiang Tao's call, Jiang Wen and Tian Xiaoguang turned around at the same time, smiling and greeting him.

"Son, you're here."

"Xiao Tao is here."

Jiang Tao stepped forward and said with a smile:

"Uncle, you've finally decided to renovate the old house. If you don't have enough money, just tell me and I'll help you out."

Tian Xiaoguang smiled and waved his hand, saying:
"No need, no need, that's enough. Xiao Rong and I are just going to do a quick flip-top flip."

"After all, we'll be working in Beijing with you from now on, and we won't be coming back to stay here very often." (End of Chapter)
