Feeling full and satisfied.
Jiang Tao wasn't in a hurry to leave.
After lighting a cigarette, he found Xu Li's WeChat and video called her.
Ding-ling-ling—
The ringtone rang a few times before it was answered. The phone screen flashed, and Xu Li's slender figure appeared.
Her delicate face had no makeup, only a touch of lipstick.
She wore a long, coffee-colored down jacket with a pure white base layer inside.
Xu Li had a tall figure and could perfectly pull off this style of clothing.
"Hello, Husband, I'm shopping at the mall with my mom and my sister. My mom said she's buying a new outfit for your daughter for the New Year."
"Have you eaten? What did you eat?"
Xu Li had been in a good mood these past few days, and even her voice became sweeter when she called Jiang Tao 'Husband'.
As for why she was in a good mood.
Naturally, it was because Jiang Tao had transferred a lot of money to her on WeChat these past few days.
Although they might not be able to pay off all their debts this year, they could pay off a portion of them and have a happy New Year.
"I had fried pancakes today, good wife. Can I discuss something with you?"
Seeing his beautiful wife, Jiang Tao felt very happy.
The only slight regret was that the couple could only comfort each other with video calls every day.
They would have to wait another ten days or so to play cards together.
"It's definitely nothing good ~"
Xu Li rolled her charming eyes.
The couple had been dating for more than six years and married for seven years. They understood each other very well.
As soon as Jiang Tao twitched his butt, Xu Li knew what he was going to do.
The same was true the other way around.
Jiang Tao chuckled and said, "How could there be nothing good! It's a great thing!"
Xu Li said directly, "Speak, how much money?"
Jiang Tao didn't beat around the bush with his wife and directly held up five fingers: "50,000."
Xu Li rolled her eyes at him again: "So, you're keeping track of how much money you give me, right? You're going to take it all back at once!"
Jiang Tao laughed and said, "I'll use it for a maximum of 10 days, and I'll return 100,000 to you then."
"Is that true?"
Xu Li's eyes lit up, feeling that this deal was worth doing!
"It's true!"
"If you lie to me, you'll sleep in a separate room when you get back."
"I can't lie to anyone, especially not my beautiful wife!"
"Tch, stop trying to sweet-talk me. What are you using the money for?"
"It's a secret. If this is said, it might not work. Anyway, don't worry, you know me. I usually don't take action unless I'm absolutely sure."
"Okay, okay, if you don't want to say it, then forget it. You're the head of the family, and you earn all the money. I'll support you in whatever you do."
While Xu Li was on the phone with Jiang Tao, she operated her phone and transferred 56,000 yuan to Jiang Tao on WeChat.
The balance on her account instantly returned to below a thousand yuan.
"Don't worry, Wife, with this wave, we can not only pay off the family's debts, but we can also have a lot left over and have a good New Year!"
"When I make money later, I'll buy you a few new clothes."
With his wife's unconditional support, Jiang Tao immediately felt more confident!
He was determined to win this wave, he had to do it!
"Okay, okay, Husband, go for it~ I'll always support you."
"Thank you, Wife. Being able to marry such a good wife like you must mean that my ancestral grave is smoking."
After talking about serious matters, the couple flirted with each other for a while, making the two single men at the next table envious!
After getting his wife's 50,000 yuan, Jiang Tao's phone balance was only a little over 70,000 yuan, not even 80,000 yuan.
According to the market conditions for Yu Dongdong's delivery today, the current market price for large sugar oranges is 3.5 yuan per catty.
A box of 10 catties is 35 yuan.
With the money Jiang Tao currently has, he can wholesale at most about 2,000 boxes.
According to the information provided by the intelligence system, this wave of price increases will last for a week.
Even if he does it alone, he won't have to worry about not being able to sell 2,000 boxes.
If he adds Xiao Liu, Xiao Dan, and Xiao Zhang, this little bit won't even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth!
This time, Jiang Tao plans to use all the funds he can mobilize to go all in on a wave of sugar oranges!
Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is in front of him.
Heaven is feeding him, so he must open his mouth as wide as possible and eat as much as he can!
After paying the bill, Jiang Tao walked out of the restaurant and returned to his truck.
After thinking about it, Jiang Tao turned his attention to Old Ma's Alipay.
Jiang Tao's maximum loan amount is 176,400, and the annual loan interest rate is 9.72%.
According to the repayment method of paying interest first and then principal, borrowing for three months will require an additional 4,760 yuan in interest.
Jiang Tao feels that this wave of sugar oranges will last for a maximum of 10 days.
When the time comes, he will return the principal and interest to Old Ma, which will be at most one or two hundred yuan in interest!
Among the people around Jiang Tao, Old Ma is the only one who can take out more than 170,000 yuan at once and is willing to lend it to him.
"My own money, plus this, is about 250,000 in total, which is almost enough. You can't be too greedy."
"With the intelligence system, there will be many opportunities to make money in the future, so don't think about becoming a big fat man in one bite."
While Jiang Tao was sitting in the car waiting for work, he was thinking about how to convince Xiao Liu and the other three to join him tonight.
Of course, if they don't want to join, Jiang Tao won't force anyone.
The opportunity is given to them, and whether they can seize it depends on them individually.
While Jiang Tao was thinking, a customer came to him.
"Master, how much does it cost to take two beds and a few seats to Xiao Shahe Village?"
"80 ~"
"Is 50 okay?"
"It's all 80 here, you can ask if you don't believe me."
"Okay, okay, 80 it is ~"
After agreeing on the price, Jiang Tao drove with the other person to the market and started his afternoon work.
In the afternoon, Jiang Tao made another 4 trips, earning a whopping 330.
Adding the 240 from the morning and the 600 from delivering goods for Yu Dongdong.
Jiang Tao earned a total of 1170 yuan today.
This is the most money he has earned from working this year!
Of course, compared to the money-making information provided by the intelligence system, this little bit of money can only be considered small money.
At 5:30 in the evening, Jiang Tao finished his day's work and drove back to Xiao Shahe Village.
He bought pig head meat, pig liver, crayfish, braised duck necks, toothpick meat, and chicken leg meat at the delicatessen.
He also bought two ham sausages, a three-way roasted duck, and a large bag of cold dishes.
Finally, he went to Pang Dongdong Supermarket and bought two bottles of ten-year-old Bai Niu Er and two large bottles of Sprite, and a pack of Liqun cigarettes.
After a big purchase, Jiang Tao returned to his rented house.
While Xiao Liu and the others hadn't arrived yet, Jiang Tao simply tidied up the house.
Then he put a small round table in the center of the room.
He also placed the pile of meat and vegetable dishes he bought on the way back on the table.
Jiang Tao had just prepared everything when he heard the sound of Xiao Liu and the others laughing and talking in the corridor outside.
Jiang Tao went out to take a look, and Xiao Liu and the other three had just reached the 2nd floor.
None of the three came empty-handed, each carrying a large bag.
Some bought vegetables, some bought wine, and of course, they also brought some fruits for Jiang Tao.
