The Most Powerful Wealth System-Chapter 110. Coffee and tea

Riki seemed to be looking back on his old life. Where he was willing to do any job as long as he could earn money. He would even work in dirty places. Anything, as long as it wasn’t illegal or criminal.

Riki also struggled when looking for money, ignoring his hunger and exhaustion. Even though he knew it was very difficult to earn even a single dollar.

And now, when he shares his food with workers like he used to be, he feels very happy. Seeing them look happy because of simple things like free food and raincoats so they don’t get wet anymore is very precious to Riki.

In addition to the workers, Riki also gives food to elementary school children who have just returned from school. The children used one large umbrella for five of them, walking home together and laughing carefree. However, seeing them walk home like that, it was clear that they came from underprivileged families.

Riki gave each of the five children a food package. Knowing that they would also get umbrellas, they were delighted. Finally, they had umbrellas.

"Thank you, brother, my mother will be happy if I come home with an umbrella! My mother won’t worry anymore because I have my own umbrella and won’t get wet," said one of the children.

Riki smiled and patted the boy on the head.

It was a sincere smile, one that should not yet know the difficulties of life.

Riki also took the initiative to give them pocket money. 100 dollars each.

"Use this for school supplies, or something you really need, okay?" said Riki.

"Can I give this money to my mom?" asked one of the children.

Riki laughed and nodded, "Of course, your mom will be happy."

"With this money, mom can cook something delicious! Thank you, handsome brother!"

The children left, looking very happy.

[Distributing food to fifty people in need is complete!]

[Your reward is an additional 6% stake in L.I Company and also +3 to all stats]

[The system is giving you a bonus of 1 million dollars because you took the initiative to distribute raincoats, umbrellas, and pocket money]

[You also get an additional 2 system points]

Finally, the mission was complete. However, it was still raining heavily in the city. Riki returned to his car, sitting quietly, waiting for Anton who was buying something nearby.

Riki’s smartphone rang, a notification from the bank came in.

One million dollars.

To be honest, Riki didn’t really need the money. He didn’t want to hoard too much money.

"Riki, you like mocha latte, right? I bought you one, it’s still warm. Here, the coffee here is very good, try it," said Anton, who had just arrived. He gave Riki a cup of warm mocha latte. For himself, Anton bought coffee with a strong aroma, but it was fragrant and soothing.

"What kind of coffee did you buy?" asked Riki.

"They said it’s Arabica coffee... the coffee is very strong, you might not like it. Oh yes, the coffee seller told me that he will close soon," said Anton.

Riki, who had just taken a sip of his coffee, immediately opened his eyes wide. Even though his was a mocha latte, it shouldn’t have been too strong, but it wasn’t. It tasted like real coffee, full of flavors that Riki couldn’t describe. It wasn’t like that fake sachet coffee. It was completely real and authentic.

"He said he’s closing? Why?" asked Riki.

Anton shrugged, "I don’t know, he said he can no longer buy coffee beans from his usual supplier. The coffee farm owner said he went bankrupt and wants to sell his coffee farm. The coffee farm is on the outskirts of town near here, right? This is the outskirts of town, next to a tea farm too. It’s a very large place. Do you want to buy it?" asked Anton.

Riki furrowed his brow, looking at Anton in confusion.

"Why should I buy it?" asked Riki in surprise.

Anton shrugged again, "Well... don’t you usually do your work based on wanting to improve the welfare of the poor? Most of the workers from the plantation are local residents, mothers, who regularly harvest coffee beans or tea leaves. Their work is very difficult, especially since the area is so large. When it rains like this, the ground becomes muddy. It’s easy to fall. I think the mothers of those children are also workers there. You know, the workers there are paid very little. If both husband and wife work there, they won’t have any money left. Finding work is difficult."

Riki looked back out the car window. The road was still drenched in rain.

"You deliberately brought me here so I would buy those plantations, right?"

Anton didn’t say anything until Riki turned back to him.

"I’m sorry... I just felt sorry when I heard the news from Nicho. Nicho himself heard it from the school security guard, whose wife works there. Besides, Riki, if you buy those plantations and hire professionals to manage them, you will definitely be more successful," said Anton.

Riki remembered that he had business skills that didn’t make him understand business, but made him always lucky in business.

This time, there was a plantation that, for some reason, the owner wanted to sell, even though it was a source of livelihood for many people.

[Your second mission is to buy the coffee and tea plantation, then make major renovations so that the plantation can make a profit, so that the workers don’t have to suffer from low wages and hardship].

[If you succeed, you will receive a reward of improved business skills and other attractive prizes].

Riki knew that the system would turn this complicated problem into his mission. But well... it might be worth a try.

"Then let’s buy the plantation now. We can’t waste any time," said Riki.

Anton smiled broadly, "That’s my Riki! Don’t worry, I know where the owner’s house is, let’s go there now."

Riki smiled. Seeing Anton so enthusiastic made him feel happy too.

After all, if Riki succeeded, he would make the children he had met earlier smile even wider. They would no longer have to worry about anything.

"Mr. Riki?"

Brian immediately stood up when Riki suddenly came to visit his house.

At that time, Brian was sitting on the porch, preparing pesticides to spray on the plants in his small garden next to the house. The rainy season was the season when insects increasingly disturbed the plants. Moreover, the muddy rain made the paths and bacteria in the soil even more disturbing. Brian also prepared pesticides for the garden at Riki’s mansion.

However, suddenly Riki appeared with Anton.

"How are you, Brian?" asked Riki.

"Fine, but why are you here? Especially now that it’s still raining," said Brian.

Riki smiled and patted Brian on the shoulder.

"It’s calmed down a bit, and besides, I want to talk to you about work."

"Oh, in that case, please come in, sir—wait a minute, let me tidy up the living room first." Brian hurriedly tidied up his sister Viena’s belongings, which were scattered on the living room table.

After finishing, he invited Riki and Anton to come in.

"Please have a seat. Would you like a hot drink, Mr. Riki?" asked Brian.

"No need, Brian. I just want to visit for a moment and tell you something. Sit down. This is quite serious," said Riki.

Hearing this, Brian immediately sat down calmly, ready to listen to whatever Riki had to say.

"I see that you are quite talented—no, you are very talented in managing your garden. Considering your talent, I want you to work in my garden."

Brian looked at Riki confused, so he replied to Riki’s statement.

"What do you mean? Haven’t I been working in your garden? I take care of your garden instead of my father."

Riki chuckled and shook his head, "No, that’s not what I mean. I just bought a coffee and tea garden, so I need someone who understands gardens like you. Of course, you won’t be alone; there will be several other experienced gardeners as well. How about it?" asked Riki.

Brian was silent, thinking. He didn’t feel professional enough to be asked to manage such a large plantation.

"If you can hire a gardener who is more professional than me, why do I have to join too—I mean, I’m not a professional in this field. It’s just that I happened to learn from my father," said Brian.

Riki smiled. He himself didn’t know how to convince Brian. Because only Riki could see Brian’s talent through his detection skills.

With an A-level gardening talent, Riki was sure that Brian would definitely be better than the previous gardener who had left the coffee trees with no hope. The previous owner of the coffee plantation didn’t go into detail, but he only said that all the coffee trees on his plantation were infested with pests and the harvest was very small. The profits from the tea plantation were still good, but they couldn’t cover the losses. Since the owner of the plantation was old, he sold it. The owner’s son didn’t want to help manage it.

So, Riki bought the plantations.

Of course, Riki needed an A-level gardening talent to restore the plantations to better condition.

"I think you should try it first, Brian. Riki wouldn’t ask for your help if he didn’t believe in your abilities," said Anton.

Suddenly, Viena appeared from the room, her belly starting to grow bigger.

"Just accept it, the salary must be huge! We need a lot of money. Manage the garden and earn a lot of money," said Viena. It sounded like she was just saying whatever she wanted, but Brian became convinced after hearing his sister’s words.

"Alright, I’ll give it a try, Mr. Riki."
