Chapter 325: Chapter 166: The Role of the Friendship Boat and the Plan to Make Friends

After getting dressed, Jiang Tao first went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face before sitting back down at the dining table.

He looked mischievously at Third Brother, who was sitting across from him, chewing on a piece of bread.

"Third Brother, did you sleep well last night?"

"Yes, yes I did, why do you ask?"

When the topic of last night’s sleep came up, Jiang Bing’s expression became slightly unnatural.

"Nothing, just asking casually."

"Oh, by the way, later on, you’ll need to take a cab to Cui Village by yourself. I have some errands to run with your sister-in-law this morning."

"Oh, okay."

Jiang Bing didn’t ask what he was up to since her second brother was quite busy these days, and they rarely saw him. She was used to it.

After breakfast, Jiang Bing took a carpool to work.

Jiang Tao and Xu Li also went downstairs together and drove to the nearest branch of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.

With the help of the teller, Jiang Tao deposited the 1,000,000 yuan check that Zhang Chao’s biological mother gave him yesterday into Xu Li’s account.

With this additional 1,000,000 yuan, Xu Li’s savings officially reached 3,860,000 yuan!

Moreover, this did not include the 600,000 yuan she had lent Jiang Tao for investing in the cattle farm!

If the profits from the cattle farm were distributed, her savings would also surpass the 5,000,000 yuan mark!

She could almost buy a house in full in Beijing!

Of course, she didn’t have to think about buying a house in Beijing right now.

Old Sun’s will had divided three houses and an additional 1,000,000 yuan among Jiang Tao’s family of three.

At this point, Jiang Tao, Xu Li, and Jiang Xue each owned a fully paid house.

The family of three had been in Beijing for just over a month.

They had already obtained resources that others might not achieve in a lifetime.

Nothing made Xu Li happier than watching her bank account grow steadily.

This not only made her happy but also brought her peace and happiness.

Money can make a man’s backbone straighter.

It can also give a woman a greater sense of security.

Jiang Tao and Xu Li, having been married for so many years, could be described as completely devoted to each other.

He knew Xu Li wasn’t the kind to spend money carelessly, so he felt assured letting her manage their finances.

Ring, ring, ring—

They had just finished their business at the bank and were about to leave when Jiang Tao’s phone suddenly rang in his pocket.

He took out his phone to see that it was "Director An" calling.

Seeing this name, Jiang Tao raised his eyebrows, a smile forming on his face.

An Menglin reaching out to him meant there was probably progress with those four pots of genetically mutated blueberry plants.

"Hello, Director An, good morning."

"Sure, sure, but I’m not at the greenhouse right now. It will take me about 20 minutes to get there."

"Okay, sounds good. See you in a bit."

Jiang Tao exchanged a few quick words with An Menglin over the phone before hanging up.

Ring, ring, ring—

Meanwhile, Xu Li’s phone also rang.

Taking out her phone, she saw it was a call from Du Enan.

"Hello, Nannan..."

"Of course, I can! What are you talking about?"

"No need, no need, I’ll just take a cab to get there."

"There’s no need to be so formal with me, really, there’s no need."

"I’m not some pampered princess, I’m not that delicate!"

After picking up the phone, Xu Li chatted away with Du Enan for five to six minutes before hanging up. She then turned to Jiang Tao and said:

"Honey, Nannan isn’t feeling too great today and is off work at home. She invited me over to keep her company."

"I see..."

Upon hearing Xu Li’s words, Jiang Tao thought of the social media post Du Enan made after midnight last night.

Maybe she didn’t sleep well in the first place!

Xu Li asked, "Who were you just talking on the phone with? Is there something going on? If you’re busy, go ahead and take care of it, I’ll just catch a ride over myself."

"It’s a director from the Agricultural Research Institute. How about you first come with me to take a stroll around Cui Village, and then I’ll drop you off afterward?"

Xu Li’s driving skills are acceptable when there are fewer people and vehicles at night.

But during the day, when the roads are busy, Jiang Tao is not at ease.

"No need to trouble yourself, I’ll just call a cab."

"Go finish what you need to do, I’m fine, really, go on, I’m not a little girl."

Xu Li chuckled and gave Jiang Tao a quick peck on the cheek, nudging him on the back to prompt him to leave.

"Alright then, give me a call when you get there."

"Mhm, got it~"

Seeing the situation, Jiang Tao didn’t waste any more words and left in his car.

With the kind of gatherings Xu Li had with Du Enan, as a man, Jiang Tao wouldn’t know what to do with himself there, unable to contribute to the conversation.

So, every time Du Enan invited Xu Li, Jiang Tao would make an effort to excuse himself and go about his own business.

At 10:18 in the morning, Jiang Tao arrived at the entrance of the greenhouse he leased in Cui Village. There, he saw An Menglin’s red Qashqai already parked.

Opening the door, he briskly made his way to the greenhouse entrance and pushed the door open to go inside.

"Good morning, President Jiang."

"Good morning, Boss Jiang~"

The workers who were busy working inside the greenhouse greeted Jiang Tao with respect.

After working here for just over half a month, everyone was genuinely fond of their employer, Jiang Tao.

When they worked elsewhere, their bosses often had an air of superiority.

They were often bossed around, treated like beasts of burden.

But working for Jiang Tao, they felt respected by him.

Since work had picked up pace, Jiang Tao frequently had Du Jun take everyone out to eat at restaurants as a treat.

When people work for Jiang Tao, they genuinely put in the effort, never needing supervision and never slacking off.
