Chapter 525: Chapter 248: [Task Name]: Grand Opening!

One hour later...

Jiang Tao devoured all the chicken, potatoes, and vermicelli inside the [Delicious Claypot].

After eating his fill, he took the claypot to the kitchen, washed it carefully, and placed it back on the table, liking it more and more.

The effect of this [Delicious Claypot] is simply beyond imagination!

Even someone like him without much experience could make chicken more delicious than that of the Five-Star Chef at Baiyulan Hotel.

If someone with experience were to cook, the effect would definitely be even better!

[Ding! Congratulations, you triggered the special task [Prosperous Opening]!]

Suddenly, a system prompt rang unexpectedly in Jiang Tao’s mind.

The azure system interface swiftly appeared, displaying the prompt information for the task.

[Task Name]: Prosperous Opening!

[Task Content]: Open a restaurant with an operating area no less than 200 square meters, featuring a claypot dish series.

[Task Rewards]: 880,000 yuan in cash, salary card limit +80,000, Constitution +8, Charm Value +8, Storage Slot +3!

"Prosperous Opening, this reward is quite generous!"

After browsing the task page’s prompt information, Jiang Tao was immediately overjoyed again.

For ordinary people, this task’s difficulty level is not small.

Opening a shop with an operating area no less than 200 square meters involves rent, renovation, buying cooking utensils, tableware, salaries, advertising, and so on...

Even in a small county like Ping County, it can’t be done without twenty or thirty thousand.

But for Jiang Tao, who currently has a net worth exceeding ten million,

this task is simply a "freebie."

Even though he just invested five million in Jinwei Welding Materials and is preparing to invest ten million to buy property in Shun Ning Prefecture,

he still has enough money in hand to open a claypot-themed restaurant.

Besides the few million in cash left in his hand,

he also acquired quite a few good things while back home recently.

Like the Bitcoin USB Drive he got at the service area when he just returned home,

and the Auspicious Ingot he fished out at Qisan Reservoir are still waiting to be cashed out.

These can be quickly liquidated through Zhang Bo when he returns to Beijing.

Also, the income from Jiang’s Food Factory can be multiplied daily using the [Monopoly Dice].

If he’s lucky enough to roll a "6," maybe a day’s income would be enough to open a shop!

Without any hesitation, Jiang Tao directly accepted the task.

As for where to open this shop...

The focus of Jiang Tao’s future business will gradually shift to Beijing.

After all, compared to Ping County, his hometown, Beijing offers incomparable advantages in terms of healthcare, education, and various other resources.

Moreover, Jiang Tao already owns quite a bit of real estate in Beijing, and his company is also based there.

So, he’s decided to open the claypot restaurant in Beijing as well.

Thinking of this, Jiang Tao sent a message to Jiang Jiaqi on his phone.

He told her about his requirements.

Asked her to keep an eye out for any suitable locations to open a shop.

Jiang Jiaqi, this little assistant, is quite reliable.

During the time Jiang Tao wasn’t around, she handled a lot of matters in Beijing for him.

The more Jiang Tao works with this little girl, the more he finds her handy—it was indeed a wise decision to recruit her into the company.

Ring ring——

Shortly after chatting with Jiang Jiaqi, a video call request from Xu Li suddenly popped up on the screen.

He tapped the accept button to connect the video call.

The phone screen flashed, and it wasn’t Xu Li who appeared but an adorable, pink little face.

"Honey, look at how cute your goddaughter is! It’s been a few days, and Little Yi has changed so much~"

"Daddy, daddy, I just fed baby sister some formula, and I can take care of little babies now~"

"Jiang Tao, you and Lili really need to step up your game."

From the other end, the chattering voices of Xu Li and Jiang Xue were accompanied by Du Enan’s laughter while entertaining the child.

"You guys went straight to Enan’s as soon as you returned; the little girl indeed seems to have grown quite a bit."

In just a few days, Jiang Tao almost didn’t recognize his own goddaughter.

"Daddy, do you think little sister Yi Yi is cute, or was I cuter when I was little?"

"Both are cute."

"Mom said she wants to give me a baby brother, when will I have a brother?"

"I’ve already learned to hold and feed babies, so I can take care of him when the time comes."

"Haha, soon, soon..."

Listening to his Little Cotton Padded Jacket’s words, Jiang Tao couldn’t help but chuckle with a trace of helplessness.

It’s quite peculiar.

Both he and Xu Li are perfectly healthy, and their medical check-ups showed no issues.

Apart from when Xu Li was on her period, they cooked frequently,

sometimes once a night, sometimes even three times an evening.

But they just haven’t been able to conceive.

They can only console each other, thinking perhaps the timing isn’t right!

Seeing his sister-in-law, little aunt, and his own mother all pregnant around them,

Xu Li is actually quite anxious and feels guilty as well.

After a lengthy call full of banter, Xu Li and Jiang Xue hung up to go home after over an hour.

Ending the call, it was already after 9 PM.

Jiang Tao chit-chatted a bit in the WeChat group with Liu Zhiyuan, Shan Yufei, and Zhang Chao.

The time swiftly approached midnight.

The first thing Jiang Tao did today wasn’t refreshing intel but checking yesterday’s earnings.

[Yesterday, you earned a total of 53,566 yuan. Would you like to immediately use the Monopoly Dice for multiplication?]

"Yes!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Tao took out the Monopoly Dice from the system’s storage slot and tossed it onto the table.

Rattle, rattle, rattle——
