Financial freedom starts with the daily intelligence system!

The simplicity and honesty of the people in his hometown is what Jiang Tao values ​​most.

You just need to be a little nicer to them.

They are truly willing to open their hearts to you.

The welcome dinner tonight ended in an incredibly harmonious and warm atmosphere.

After eating and drinking their fill, Jiang Tao and Liu Yuan drove the group of villagers back to Xiaoshahe Village.

Liu Yuan had already rented an entire dormitory building here in advance.

This dormitory building is a three-story building newly built by a villager in Xiaoshahe Village, with a total of 30 rooms.

Among the employees who came today, three couples are living together.

The rest of the people all lived in single rooms.

The room was furnished with brand new beds and bedding that Liu Yuan had just bought, and each room was also equipped with air conditioning.

"These conditions are too good..."

"Yeah, before, when I worked on construction projects for other bosses, there were about ten people sharing a room. At night, the snoring, the teeth grinding, and the smell of stinky feet..."

"General Manager Jiang has always been incredibly good to us! I, Jiang Erlong, will work for General Manager Jiang for the rest of my life!"

"A boss with such a conscience as Mr. Jiang is truly worth following for a lifetime!"

"We are so lucky to have such a great boss as President Jiang! We must have done this in our past lives!"

When the villagers saw the accommodations that Jiang Tao had arranged for them, they were all deeply moved.

Other bosses treat them like beasts of burden, making them do the hardest work, eat the worst food, and get the least pay.

Jiang Tao truly treats them like human beings!
Not only do they offer high salaries, but they also provide social insurance and housing fund contributions, and the accommodation is excellent!

If I didn't know Jiang Tao inside and out and understand his character,

Everyone began to suspect that his kindness towards them might be for some ulterior motive!
After Jiang Tao and Liu Yuan finished arranging accommodations for the villagers, they left amidst the villagers' reluctant farewells.

Downstairs at the dormitory, Jiang Tao looked at Jiang Xinguo, who had seen him and Liu Yuan out, and said:
"Brother Xinguo, thank you for making this special trip. I'll come to see you off tomorrow morning."

"You've done such a great thing for our village, what's a little bit of hard work like this?"

"I wish every day could be this hard."

Jiang Xinguo had drunk quite a bit tonight; his face was flushed like a cooked shrimp, but it was clear he was genuinely happy.

As the village party secretary of Jiangjiazhuang, I saw that the villagers had found a job that they could rely on for a long time and that would also provide for them in their old age.

He was genuinely happy for his fellow villagers.

"By the way, Brother Xinguo, I heard you mention the issue of elderly care for the senior citizens in our village at the banquet."

Jiang Tao looked at Jiang Xinguo and said earnestly:
"Although I haven't achieved much yet, I've made a name for myself and have acquired a little bit of ability."

"So, I want to do something more for the folks in our village."

"Oh? Mr. Jiang, what are your thoughts?"

Upon hearing Jiang Tao's words, Jiang Xinguo's eyes lit up, and he asked an urgent question.

"Is this what you mean, Brother Xinguo? A while ago, I came across a story about a village party secretary in a certain place while browsing Kuaishou and Douyin."

"I was moved to write this after you mentioned the elderly care situation in our village again tonight."

"I'd also like to ask you, Xinguo, to help me with this."

Jiang Tao's words completely piqued Jiang Xinguo's interest, and he nodded hastily, saying:

"Mr. Jiang, you've said your piece. As long as it's within my power, I certainly won't refuse!"

You have to admit, Jiang Xinguo is a very smooth person when it comes to dealing with people.

He knew that since Jiang Tao wanted his help, it must be something within his capabilities.

So he agreed without even asking what it was about, which would win Jiang Tao's favor.

Of course, Jiang Tao was fully aware of his little scheme, but he didn't expose it and continued:
“Here’s the thing, Brother Xinguo, I’m planning to set aside 5 yuan a month to set up a charity canteen in our village.”

"Any villager from our Jiangjiazhuang village who is over 50 years old can eat in the canteen for free."

"5 yuan per month for a charity canteen?"

Upon hearing Jiang Tao's words, Jiang Xinguo was first startled, then his face lit up with ecstatic joy!
5 yuan is nothing to Jiang Tao now.

But for ordinary people, that's almost a year's salary!
Jiangjiazhuang has only 1200 registered permanent residents, with more than 50% working outside the village year-round.

In other words, the maximum number of villagers still living in the village is 1000.

Further exclude those under 50 years old, young adults, women, and children.

There are at most two or three hundred elderly people over 50 years old.

A monthly food allowance of 5 yuan is definitely enough to ensure that the elderly eat very well!

"President Jiang, I really, really don't know how to thank you!"

"It's truly a blessing from our ancestors that our Jiangjiazhuang village has produced such a talented young man like you who always puts the villagers first!"

After the initial excitement, Jiang Xinguo held Jiang Tao's hand tightly, tears welling up in his eyes.

As the saying goes, no one is perfect.

Although Jiang Xinguo had an inappropriate relationship with Qiao Erli, the village's women's director.

Strictly speaking, he wasn't a good person either.

However, he was quite competent as the village party secretary when it came to serving the villagers.

He would do his best to help anyone in the village who needed his help.

He always does his best to secure various free benefits for the villagers.

This time, Jiang Tao proposed to donate 5 yuan per month to run a public canteen in the village.

He was also sincerely grateful to Jiang Tao and happy for the villagers who could benefit from the assistance.

Jiang Xinguo spends most of his time interacting with the elderly people in the village.

Seeing the elderly in the village receiving their meager monthly pensions, reluctant to eat or drink anything extravagantly.

That was truly just barely surviving!
To be honest, sometimes he felt bad when he saw it.

But he was just a village party secretary in a remote, impoverished mountain village.

His monthly salary is only three or four thousand yuan, which is barely enough to support his family.

He wanted to do something good for the villagers, but he didn't have the ability.

Jiang Tao has the ability, but he didn't have the will before.

Jiang Xinguo didn't want to resort to moral blackmail or anything like that, lest he annoy people.

At this moment, Jiang Tao took the initiative to suggest it, and he naturally agreed wholeheartedly!
"Brother Xinguo, could you work on a plan for this charity canteen in the next couple of days? Once you've finished, bring it to me."

"You are the person in charge of this project. Please list out where the canteen should be built and how many people are needed."

"You don't need to touch the 5 yuan monthly food allowance; I'll cover your salary separately."

Jiang Tao genuinely wanted to do something good for the villagers this time.

He doesn't mind earning an extra ten or twenty thousand yuan per month.

Jiang Xinguo said excitedly, "Okay, Mr. Jiang! I will definitely get the plan to you as soon as possible! Thank you on behalf of the villagers!"

"Brother Xinguo, you're too kind. I'm also a part of Jiangjiazhuang."

"It is only right to do something for the villagers within my own capabilities."

"By the way, Xinguo, you should also try to learn from that village secretary who was very popular a while ago."

"While running this public welfare canteen, we're also doing some self-media."

"If it becomes popular, it could be a way to increase income."

Jiang Xinguo nodded obediently and said:

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, I'll look into the branch secretary you mentioned later and see how he does things, so I can take a look."

"It's getting late, so we'll be going now."

After discussing the charity canteen, Jiang Tao raised his hand and glanced at the Richard Mille RM-29 watch that Qiu Lizhen had given him.

Before they knew it, it was already 11 p.m., quite late. Jiang Xinguo waved goodbye to Jiang Tao and Liu Yuan.

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, Mr. Liu, please drive carefully on the road."

"Goodbye, Secretary Jiang."

Goodbye, Mr. Liu.

Liu Yuan waved to Jiang Xinguo, and then followed Jiang Tao toward Jia Guilin, who was waiting quietly to the side.

Liu Yuan also drank alcohol tonight and cannot drive.

So Jiang Tao let her ride in his car and had Jia Guilin drive her home.

To make her work more convenient, Liu Yuan rented a room in Huilongguan, which is less than 10 minutes away from Xiaoshahe.

Jiang Tao asked Jia Guilin to take Liu Yuan home first, and then take him home.

It was around 11:30 p.m. when he got back to his apartment building.

"Boss, I'll head back now."

After getting out of the car, Jia Guilin respectfully bid farewell to Jiang Tao.

"Drive carefully, you've had a hard day, Lao Jia."

Jiang Tao patted Lao Jia on the shoulder and watched him walk more than ten meters before turning around and walking towards the entrance of his own building.

He took the elevator upstairs and got home. His parents and Jiang Xue were already asleep, only Xu Li was still waiting for him.

After the couple whispered a few words to each other, Xu Li urged Jiang Tao to take a shower.

After taking a shower, the couple spent another hour or so working on their plans for a second child.

Exhausted, Xu Li drifted off to sleep with a satisfied smile.

Jiang Tao checked the time and it was already past midnight.

He opened the system panel on a whim to check the latest intelligence.

[Today's Intelligence 01]: You had contact with Qiao Yue yesterday and obtained relevant information—

Qiao Yue and Zhang Bo have a marriage compatibility score of 98, making them a perfect match.

By bringing two people together, you can gain their lifelong friendship and gratitude!

……

"More marriage-related information. I'm practically becoming a part-time matchmaker."

Upon seeing the first piece of information that appeared today, Jiang Tao couldn't help but chuckle.

He has already helped bring together four or five couples!
Grandpa Lü Qian and Ma Dongmei, Uncle Tian Xiaoguang and Aunt Tian Mingrong.

Then there are Wang Zhiyuan, Liu Yuan, Zhang Chao, and Fang Qi.

Today, we have added Zhang Bo and Qiao Yue to our couple list!
To be honest, Jiang Tao and Qiao Yue weren't very familiar with each other.

At tonight's welcome dinner, Jiang Xinguo had just introduced Qiao Yue to Jiang Tao.

Qiao Yue was just an ordinary girl.

He was of average appearance, average figure, and average education; there was nothing about him that left a deep impression on Jiang Tao.

But Tongzi said that she and Zhang Bo had a 98% compatibility rate and were a match made in heaven, so that must be true.

"But I remember Zhang Bo has a girlfriend, right?"

"Should we introduce Qiao Yue to him after he breaks up with his girlfriend?"

"Never mind, I'll ask him about his relationship with his current girlfriend tomorrow."

"If the two of them are loving and doing well, I won't interfere."

After making his decision, Jiang Tao refreshed the next piece of intelligence with a thought.

[Today's Intelligence 02]: You had contact with Zhang Bo yesterday and obtained relevant intelligence—

Zhang Bo's girlfriend, Tong Mengyao, and his ex-girlfriend, Gao Wen, have rekindled their old flame and are having an affair at the China World Hotel!
A timely reminder can help Zhang Bo stop his losses in time.

……

"What's going on? Whose ex-girlfriend? Zhang Bo's or Tong Mengyao's?"

After understanding the content of the second piece of information, Jiang Tao's cup almost burned out.

"Young people are making things a bit too complicated!"

After staring at the intelligence page for more than a minute, Jiang Tao finally confirmed that Gao Wen was probably Tong Mengyao's ex-girlfriend.

In other words, Zhang Bo's girlfriend, Tong Mengyao, was a lesbian before.

"Does this count as being cheated on?"

Jiang Tao also couldn't quite understand how young people were having fun these days.

"Continue to the next item."

[Today's Intelligence 03]: You obtained relevant intelligence while drinking tea at the Prince's Mansion Tea House yesterday.

Among the batch of Zisha teapots sold by Wangfu Teahouse, one was a genuine piece made by Gu Jingzhou himself.

This teapot is extremely valuable; we recommend acquiring it as soon as possible!

[Note]: There are 10 hours and 28 minutes remaining until the teapot is snatched up by someone else.

"A Yixing teapot? Gu Jingzhou? Extremely valuable?"

Jiang Tao was slightly surprised when he saw the contents of the third piece of intelligence.

Tongzi rarely labels an item as "extremely valuable".

Judging from its appearance, this Yixing teapot must be quite expensive.

Driven by curiosity, Jiang Tao searched for Gu Jingzhou on his mobile browser.

Several messages related to Gu Jingzhou quickly popped up on the phone screen.

"Wow, the number one expert in Yixing teapots?"

"A teapot sold for tens of millions at auction?"

Jiang Tao casually browsed through a few pieces of information about Gu Jingzhou and Zisha teapots. After learning about the value of Gu Jingzhou's teapots, he was immediately shocked!
There are so many rich people in this world!
It's just a teapot, yet it can sell for tens of millions!

Who are buying these?
Would you really use such an expensive teapot to brew tea?
"Anyway, I can't bear to use such an expensive teapot to brew tea."

"You run a teahouse, after all. If someone can snag such an expensive teapot, then I won't be polite."

After a moment of reflection, Jiang Tao had already formulated a plan of action.

Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the Wangfu Tea House first thing to do to buy a teapot!

There were still more than 10 hours before the genuine Gu Jingzhou purple clay teapot was sold.

There is no need to rush.

"Continue! Next one!"

[Today's Intelligence 04]: You dined at Jinghua Pavilion yesterday and obtained relevant intelligence—

The Romanée-Conti you and He Jing drank yesterday was fake.

If you come to our door to protect your rights, you can get 10 times the compensation and 3 free orders!
……

"What the hell? Fake wine?"

Upon seeing the last piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao was stunned.

How could such a high-end place like Jinghua Pavilion sell counterfeit alcohol?
"Damn it, I'm never touching imported liquor again! Aren't they just taking advantage of my ignorance about it?!"

The reason I drank red wine yesterday was because I wanted to have a romantic time with He Jing.

I never expected it to backfire so spectacularly!

Jiang Tao knew very little about foreign liquor. If it weren't for Brother Tongzi reminding him, he really wouldn't have known that he was drinking fake liquor!

“Yesterday, that bottle of Romanée-Conti cost 120,000 yuan. Ten times the compensation would be 12 million yuan.”

"120 million yuan in compensation for emotional distress is barely acceptable!" (End of Chapter)
