Waking up naturally after a deep sleep.
When Jiang Tao woke up, it was already past 8 a.m.
He didn’t have to go to work at this ti, nor worry about money.
A house in the hotown, a house in the county town, three houses in Beijing.
He also owned two luxury cars worth millions.
And they were all fully paid, without a cent of debt.
Plus, every morning when he wakes up, he earns 30,000 yuan from the Wealth-Attracting Golden Toad, Money Breeds Money, and the Beiqi EU5.
Nowadays, Jiang Tao was living quite comfortably.
In a sense, he had achieved financial freedom and wouldn’t have to worry about money for the rest of his life.
Leisurely getting out of bed, washing up, then taking the elevator downstairs to have a simple breakfast at the breakfast shop outside the community.
While having breakfast, Jiang Tao sent a ssage to Yu Shuai on WeChat.
He lied, claiming that a friend who understood astronomy observed the signs in the sky last night and could tell that there would be a hail disaster in Ping County tomorrow.
Whether Yu Shuai believed it or took precautions was up to him.
After all, this matter had nothing to do with Jiang Tao.
Even if the hail smashed all the fruit in Yu Shuai’s farm, he wouldn’t suffer any loss.
He kindly reminded Yu Shuai, which was quite considerate of him.
After finishing breakfast, it was only about 9 in the morning.
He agreed with Yuan ngqi’s family to pick them up at around 2 in the afternoon.
There was still a whole morning ahead.
"Let’s go and ask Uncle Shuisheng about his ex-wife and daughter’s situation first!"
Jiang Tao wouldn’t refuse the 1.5 million yuan that ca knocking.
Besides, this matter also concerned national security.
While making money, he could help the country catch three spies.
Jiang Tao was definitely going to do this win-win task and wouldn’t have any psychological burden over it.
Paying the bill, Jiang Tao headed straight towards Jiang Family Manor by car.
In less than 10 minutes, the Benz G-class was parked at his doorstep.
What a coincidence!
Jiang Tao saw a blue electric tricycle parked at the gate of his house, and the door was open.
It seed Uncle Shuisheng had co to water his trees.
After getting out of the car, he slamd the door shut and strode briskly through the gate into the courtyard.
Just as he thought, Jiang Shuisheng was carrying a plastic bucket and heading towards the mutated walnut tree by the west wall.
"Uncle, you ca early to water the trees."
Jiang Tao quickened his pace towards Jiang Shuisheng, greeting him with a smile.
"Taozi, you’re back! What ti are you leaving for Beijing today?"
Hearing Jiang Tao’s voice, Jiang Shuisheng turned to look at him, greeting him with a smile.
"After lunch, around 2 p.m. I’ll leave. Uncle, have a smoke."
As he spoke, Jiang Tao pulled out a pack of Da Tian Ye he had just opened at the breakfast shop from his pocket.
He took one himself and handed the cigarette pack directly to Jiang Shuisheng.
"This cigarette is really nice!"
Jiang Shuisheng took a cigarette from the pack and extended it back to Jiang Tao, but he refused.
Jiang Tao pushed the cigarette back, saying with a smile, "Uncle, keep the rest to smoke. I have more in the car."
"I’m sorry to take it!"
Jiang Shuisheng said he felt bad, but he quickly put the cigarettes into his pocket.
A pack of Da Tian Ye was worth about a hundred yuan, equivalent to several days’ wages for him!
With just the cost of a pack of cigarettes, Jiang Tao earned a lot of goodwill from Jiang Shuisheng.
After he finished watering the tree pit with the bucket, Jiang Tao invited him to co inside and sit.
Initially, Jiang Shuisheng was reluctant to enter.
He was afraid of dirtying the floor with his shoes, afraid of staining the sofa with his clothes.
But he couldn’t resist Jiang Tao’s enthusiasm and eventually went inside with him.
However, he refused to sit on the sofa, preferring a small stool by the coffee table, sitting opposite Jiang Tao.
"Uncle, are you still in contact with my aunt and Jiaojiao?"
Once they sat down, Jiang Tao imdiately asked the question he was most concerned about.
"Don’t ntion them! I don’t want to hear their nas ever again! I act as if I don’t have a daughter!"
At the ntion of his ex-wife and daughter, Jiang Shuisheng’s expression turned extrely sour.
This had beco a lifelong burden and an unhealed scar for him.
Bringing them up in front of Jiang Shuisheng was like rubbing salt into his wounds.
It was only because it was Jiang Tao that he managed to stay rational despite looking unhappy.
If it were soone else ntioning them, he would have flipped and argued.
"Uncle, don’t overthink. I just have so things that require knowing their situation."
"Like, where they’re living now, where they’re working, things like that."
Once Jiang Shuisheng cald down a bit, Jiang Tao explained.
"They have always been in Beijing Pingchang District, apparently working at so research institute."
Jiang Shuisheng didn’t know much about his ex-wife and daughter’s current situation, only so basic information.
"A research institute!"
When Jiang Tao heard they were working at a research institute, a sense of urgency rose within him.
Leaving them at that institute even for a day might an more secrets being stolen by them.
This matter couldn’t wait, it was urgent!
Jiang Shuisheng suddenly rembered sothing and added:
"Oh, that’s right, I rember! They seem to be working at a place researching tanks or sothing."
"Alright, got it."
Jiang Tao nodded and rembered the information Jiang Shuisheng shared.
