Chapter 532: Chapter 251: Special Mission [Judgment of Justice] and Its Generous Rewards!

And this reward...

"This reward is quite generous!"

After reading the reward section of the task, Jiang Tao could barely contain his laughter!

Recovering assets of equal value?

In other words, whatever he helps Yuan Mengqi recover, he can get the same amount?

After taxes, 8 million, at least he could recover 4 million!

Moreover, since Liu Gang deliberately hid assets, legally, this is considered illegal appropriation. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

If the court rules on it, they usually lean towards awarding more to the deceived party, in this case, Yuan Mengqi!

This time, if it goes publicly, Jiang Tao estimates that Yuan Mengqi will get at least 4.5 million!

In other words, if Jiang Tao helps Yuan Mengqi recover 4.5 million, he can also receive 4.5 million!

4.5 million!

Even for Jiang Tao now, that’s no small amount!

The rewards for Constitution and Charm Value in the task are pretty standard and not too impressive.

But the final reward of +3 storage slots is also a huge surprise for Jiang Tao!

He spent 1.1 million just to unlock two storage slots, and unlocking the third slot requires 10 million!

Spending 10 million for a storage slot is something Jiang Tao, whose assets are still in the tens of millions, is unwilling to do.

With that money, he might as well upgrade the system again.

Refreshing one more system daily—isn’t that more tempting?

Of course, spending 10 million to upgrade the system to get one more piece of intel daily is also something Jiang Tao is reluctant to do.

System upgrades can only increase the number of intel, not the quality.

On a bad luck day, he might end up with four pieces of junk intel.

So, for now, having three pieces of intel a day is enough for Jiang Tao.

He doesn’t have a huge demand for intel volume right now.

He plans to consider spending 10 million to upgrade the system and increase the intel volume only when he hits a small target.

After completing this task "Justice’s Approval," the direct reward of 3 urgently needed storage slots is more valuable to him than 4.5 million in cash!

So...

Jiang Tao doesn’t mind riling up Yuan Mengqi’s ex-husband, Liu Gang!

"Squad Leader Yuan, I say, let’s not waste time with that bastard ex of yours, let’s just go all out!"

"You know, I’ve got some connections in Ping County with Sister Bai."

Seeing Yuan Mengqi’s conflicted look, Jiang Tao directly gave his opinion.

Whether considering it from Yuan Mengqi’s perspective or his own interests, they must fight for as much benefit for her as possible!

The more she gets, the more he gets. It’s a win-win!

"Then... okay, I’ll leave it to you, Jiang Tao. Once it’s done, I’ll properly thank you."

Yuan Mengqi was moved by her old classmate standing up for her and fighting for her benefits, her eyes reddening slightly.

"How do you want to thank me?"

Jiang Tao raised an eyebrow at Yuan Mengqi with a playful look.

"Well, since I’m divorced now, is it okay if I offer myself?"

After saying that, Yuan Mengqi covered her mouth and laughed.

Yet as she laughed, she suddenly felt a pang of sadness, thinking that it would be great if Jiang Tao was also divorced now.

If that were the case, she would undoubtedly pursue him without hesitation.

"Haha, Squad Leader Yuan, that’s such a harsh way to thank someone. It’s like you’re getting back at me."

Jiang Tao didn’t take Yuan Mengqi’s words seriously and joked back.

"What, am I not good enough for you?"

Yuan Mengqi puffed up her chest with a defiant look, as if to say, "What’s wrong with me?"

"Hahaha, you’re good enough, you’re good enough. Squad Leader Yuan is elegant and perfect. It’s just that a common person like me doesn’t deserve Squad Leader Yuan."

Thinking of the generous reward from "Justice’s Judgment," Jiang Tao was in an exceptionally bright and happy mood!

After chatting for a while, Jiang Tao made a call to Bai Yulan.

On the call, Jiang Tao detailed to Bai Yulan about Yuan Mengqi’s divorce with her ex-husband and their current situation,

and the whole matter about the 8 million.

Bai Yulan, being a person full of compassion and a sense of justice,

after hearing Jiang Tao out, said she would definitely help and keep a close eye on the matter.

The phone call lasted more than an hour before they hung up.

"Alright, Squad Leader Yuan, Sister Bai has spoken. This matter is basically settled, so just wait to collect the money."

After hanging up the call with Bai Yulan, Jiang Tao looked at Yuan Mengqi, genuinely happy for his old classmate.

With more than 4 million, not only can they pay off their family debts,

but the financial crisis that Yuan Mengqi’s family is facing will also be greatly eased.

"Oh no..."

"If Squad Leader Yuan’s family no longer needs money, how am I going to recruit her brother?"

Jiang Tao suddenly thought of this issue, which slightly furrowed his brows.

"What’s wrong, Jiang Tao? Is there any problem?"

Seeing Jiang Tao frown, Yuan Mengqi thought it was related to her issues, so she asked with concern.

"Oh, no, everything is going smoothly. I was just thinking about something else."

Returning to his senses, Jiang Tao looked at Yuan Mengqi and smiled as he explained.

Yuan Mengqi curiously asked, "Something else? What are you thinking about?"

Jiang Tao asked, "Aren’t you curious about what I want to talk about with your brother?"

"Actually, I am a bit curious about what you want to discuss with Mengjie?"

Yuan Mengqi looked at Jiang Tao curiously, honestly admitting her curiosity and how hard she found it to restrain herself from asking.

Jiang Tao openly laughed, "I want to open a claypot restaurant in Beijing and want your brother to join me."

"Join your restaurant?"

Yuan Mengqi was indeed a bit surprised after hearing Jiang Tao’s words.

She knew that her brother had long planned to resign from Qiao Claypot to start his own thing.

But he never found the right opportunity.

Recently, due to a car accident plus their mother’s severe illness,

their family’s savings were depleted all of a sudden, and they carried tens of thousands in external debt.

In such dire straits, having a stable income is naturally a more secure choice.

Investing in entrepreneurship doesn’t quite match Yuan Mengjie’s current situation.

Besides, he doesn’t have the courage to burn his boats and take risks.

So, he is still working as a chef at Qiao Claypot.

In addition to taking care of his mother, he still takes time to work at the restaurant daily.

After all, although they’ve gathered enough for the surgery and medical fees,

the later rehabilitation also requires quite a bit of money.

Qiao Claypot is his only source of income.

"Yes, when I return to Beijing, I plan to open a claypot-style restaurant, like Qiao Claypot, focusing on claypot dishes."

"If the business does well, I will continue to open a second, third, and even fourth branch."

"Eventually, I plan to open my claypot restaurants all over the 16 districts of Beijing."

"At least five restaurants in each district."

As they talked about the claypot restaurant, Jiang Tao enthusiastically shared his plan with Yuan Mengqi.

Although the first restaurant hasn’t even started, he has absolute confidence in the restaurant he’s about to open.

With the backing of "Delicious Claypot," making money for him is easier than drinking water!

Moreover, the claypot restaurant’s profit can be multiplied using "Monopoly Dice."

This undoubtedly adds another layer of guarantee to Jiang Tao’s entrepreneurial path.

Even if he adopts a strategy of low profit and high sales,

using "Monopoly Dice" for doubling still yields substantial additional profits.

Of course, Jiang Tao doesn’t plan to employ the typical strategy of low profit and high sales.

The powerful attribute of "Delicious Claypot" allows him to pursue a high-end route.

The Qiao Claypot they had for lunch was too low in terms of spending level.

With an average spending of less than twenty, people can eat all they want, focusing on value for money.

In Beijing, where every inch of land is extremely valuable, following the strategy of Ping County’s claypot shop means losing money, not earning it!

Jiang Tao believes this is adapting to local conditions!

Watching Jiang Tao passionately talk about his business plans, Yuan Mengqi couldn’t help but look a bit mesmerized.

Men are so handsome when they’re serious!
