Daily Intelligence System: Financial Independence-Chapter 242 - 145: Small Goals and Lamborghini Aventador, Jiang Tao’s Flag!
"Yes!"
Without any hesitation, Jiang Tao directly chose to collect today’s cash earnings.
Buzz~
The next second, his phone vibrated in his pocket, and he received a message about the deposit.
[10000 yuan has been deposited into your ICBC savings account ending in XX89. Current balance: 1,563,368.88 yuan.]
Looking at the long string of numbers in his bank account, the smile on Jiang Tao’s face was even harder to control than an AK!
Earlier, the Benz company compensated 4.48 million in one go, and he spent over 700,000 on a car.
Jiang Tao transferred 2 million to Xu Li for safekeeping, leaving him with over 1.6 million.
Today, he spent over 80,000 buying shoes and clothes for Xu Li.
This over 1.5 million is Jiang Tao’s current visible asset, not including the 2 million he previously invested in funds.
Nor does it include the over 2 million invested in the cattle farm.
Then there’s the 150,000 medical expenses loaned to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Tao didn’t tell Xu Li about this money, fearing she might misunderstand.
Tring—
Jiang Tao put away his phone, just about to turn upstairs when his phone suddenly rang.
He took out his phone and found, coincidentally, the caller was Jiang Yi.
This was the first time Jiang Yi proactively called him.
"Hello, Teacher Jiang."
Jiang Tao swiped to answer, smiling as he greeted Jiang Yi.
"Jiang Tao, thank you. An’an has successfully completed the surgery. It was really successful, thank you so much."
On the other end, Jiang Yi’s voice came through, soft and gentle like an oriole.
"That’s great, I hope your niece recovers soon. If you need more money, just let me know."
Thinking about the great return rate on loaning money to Jiang Yi’s niece, Jiang Tao wished he could lend out all the money in his account.
"There’s enough, there’s enough. I called you just to update you on An’an’s situation and to thank you, not to borrow more money."
Jiang Yi, on the other end, thinking Jiang Tao misunderstood, quickly explained and then changed the subject:
"By the way, Jiang Tao, when are you free? I’d like to invite you, Xiao Xue, and Xiao Xue’s mom for a meal."
"You’ve done us a big favor this time, I need to thank you properly."
"Teacher Jiang, there’s no need to treat us, and also..."
"The 200,000 I lent you is my personal savings."
"It’s best if only you, your brother, and I know about this, don’t let my wife find out, you understand."
Jiang Tao joked, "After all, it’s not easy for us men to save up some personal funds, right?"
"Ah, oh... I see, okay then."
On the other end, Jiang Yi didn’t expect that the money was lent to her without Xu Li knowing.
She suddenly felt a bit guilty.
As if she had wronged Xu Li somehow.
Even though Jiang Tao and Xu Li had a very good relationship as a couple.
But with some things, the less said the better.
How would he explain that shared rental for the Patek Philippe Nautilus with Jiang Yi?
The matter of lending money to Jiang Yi was also hard to explain.
Often a lie requires more lies to cover up.
Jiang Tao just didn’t want unnecessary trouble.
So, certain matters could only be kept from Xu Li.
After a short friendly chat, Jiang Tao hung up and was just entering the elevator.
Once inside the elevator, he saw an elderly lady with a fluffy white Bichon Frise.
Jiang Tao didn’t know much about dogs.
The only reason he recognized this breed was because he rescued one during the New Year in his hometown.
The little Bichon quietly stayed by the elderly lady’s side, looking like a well-behaved girl.
"Off work, young man?"
The old lady greeted Jiang Tao with a smile as he entered the elevator.
Living in the same building, seeing each other was inevitable.
Though they didn’t know each other’s names, their faces were familiar.
The old lady would call Jiang Tao "young man" when she saw him, and he would call her "old lady" in return.
"Yes, just got off work. Were you taking the dog for a walk, ma’am?"
Jiang Tao also greeted her with a smile.
"Sigh! It’s more like the dog is walking me!"
"Having this thing at home is quite troublesome!"
Actually, the old lady didn’t like dogs at all, but this dog was bought by her daughter-in-law for her granddaughter.
However, after buying it, the granddaughter liked it for less than a week before losing interest.
The daughter-in-law was busy with work and socializing every day, coming home very late.
Eventually, caring for and walking the dog became her responsibility.
"Going out for walks is good for your health, though."
While chatting with the old lady, Jiang Tao’s hand pressed the elevator button to close the doors.
"By the way, young man, you’re also on the 16th floor, right? Did you hear that a resident on your floor got arrested?"
The old lady smoothly shifted the topic from walking the dog to gossip.
"Yes, that person was our neighbor."
Jiang Tao, being the instigator, nodded; with his contribution to the neighbor’s arrest, how could he not know!
The old lady continued, "I heard he was charged with espionage? Betraying the country?"
"Uh..."
Jiang Tao couldn’t help but feel amused by the charges the old lady attributed to the neighbor.
Evidently stealing trade secrets, but now he’s dubbed a traitor!
This really was a case of three people making a tiger, rumors becoming distorted as they spread.
However, he couldn’t be bothered to explain.
Ding~
In just a few words, they had reached the old lady’s floor.
After she got off, Jiang Tao closed the elevator doors again.
Once the elevator reached the 16th floor, Jiang Tao stepped out.
Upon reaching his door, he embarrassingly realized he forgot his keys when he went downstairs.
Knock knock knock--!
He knocked a few times, but no one answered, probably because the noise from the kitchen exhaust fan was too loud to hear.
