Chapter 255: Chapter 148: Gold Acquired, 3.66 Million Credited! (3-in-1)

When Jiang Tao returned to the front gate of Villa 128, it was already 4 PM.

He entered the password, unlocked the door to the yard, and then opened the entrance lock to enter the villa, heading straight to the study.

Click~

Jiang Tao pushed open the door of the study and went inside.

In his line of sight, the floor in the northwest corner emitted a dark golden glow.

With a thought, a line of information appeared on Jiang Tao’s retina:

[No other observers present nearby, do you want to pay 10,086 yuan to retrieve the items under the floor?]

Earlier, with Liu Yue present, the system kept indicating there was another observer, preventing the activation of this feature.

Now, with only Jiang Tao present, he could spend some money to retrieve the items from under the floor. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Just like when slaughtering the yellow cow at home, taking the bezoar from inside its body.

"Damn it, why not just rob me!"

Seeing that it would cost over 10,000 this time, Jiang Tao was speechless.

Last time, taking and properly handling the bezoar only cost 1,000 yuan, and now it’s over 10,000!

However...

If he didn’t spend this money, he would first need to tear up the study floor, and then restore it to its original state.

According to Liu Yue, the floor was made of teak solid wood, which wasn’t cheap.

If he damaged and compensated for it, it would also be a significant sum, not to mention a waste of time.

"Forget it! 10,000 is 10,000! Get it for me!"

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Tao ultimately decided to save himself the hassle and pay to get it done.

[Deducting funds, please wait...]

[Deduction successful, retrieving items...]

Jiang Tao blinked, and the floor that had been glowing dark gold in his vision returned to normal.

At the same time, a pile of gold bars, arranged pyramid-style, appeared neatly stacked on the floor!

Moreover, above the gold bars was a sealed bag, which seemed to contain certificates for this batch of gold!

"Such a big pile!"

Jiang Tao swallowed with excitement, squatting down to take a bar from the pyramid.

It was a 200-gram large financial gold bar from ICBC.

"One, two, three..."

Jiang Tao counted, exactly 20 bars, with a total weight of 4,000 grams!

The sealed bag also contained certificates and purchase invoices for this batch of gold bars!

"Done!"

Looking at the pile of glittering gold bars on the floor, Jiang Tao’s grin was harder to suppress than an AK!

4,000 grams of gold, with the current market price exceeding 900 yuan/gram, translates to over 3.6 million!

"Should I keep it or sell it?"

He lit a cigarette to calm down for a moment.

Jiang Tao finally decided to sell these gold bars while gold prices were high.

Currently, he didn’t have enough money to stockpile gold.

From his conversation with Liu Yue, he learned that the villa was listed at a whopping 35 million.

Even with everything he had right now, he couldn’t afford the down payment.

If he wanted to live in a big villa, he’d have to work hard!

4,000 grams of gold only amounts to a bit over 8 pounds.

It sounds like a lot, but it’s not that much, really.

Jiang Tao fetched a shopping bag from his car and packed it up to take away.

It was just past 4 PM, still not too late.

Jiang Tao took the gold bars to a branch of ICBC in Huilongguan, and smoothly exchanged them for 3,660,088 yuan!

The money he received was only 88 yuan more than the 3.66 million mentioned in the information.

Even after deducting the 300,000-plus rent, he still had 3.3 million left!

It had only been a few days since the Mercedes GLS return with triple compensation, and a big score came in again!

Walking out of the ICBC branch, Jiang Tao nearly couldn’t help but dance like Star-Lord!

How could the joy of picking up over 3 million in a day be captured with just one word?

Ring ring, ring ring—

As Jiang Tao reached his car, his phone rang in his pocket.

Taking it out, the caller ID showed the name "Third Brother."

Jiang Tao swiped his finger to answer the call.

"Hey second brother, I’m almost at the entrance of your neighborhood, could you come out to meet me?"

Once connected, Jiang Bing’s voice came through the line.

Jiang Tao asked, "Where are you now?"

"Driver, where are we now? Oh, Huilongguan, I’ve reached Huilongguan."

This time, Jiang Bing came to Beijing by car-sharing from their hometown in Ping County, paying a bit extra for a direct drop-off at the neighborhood entrance, much more convenient than the train.

After hearing Third Brother’s conversation with the driver, Jiang Tao said:

"Let the driver drop you off at the ICBC on Longhua Street, I’m also in Huilongguan."

"Alright! Driver, please drop me off at whatever street ICBC branch."

"I’m on the roadside, you’ll see me as soon as you arrive, later."

After saying this, Jiang Tao hung up, and lit a cigarette waiting for Third Brother.

Within less than three minutes of hanging up, a white Volkswagen Lavida with a Ping County license plate stopped in front of Jiang Tao.

"Second brother! Did you come here just to pick me up!"

Jiang Bing got out of the car, excitedly hugging Jiang Tao’s arm with a beaming smile.

Jiang Tao laughed, "Don’t flatter yourself, I just happened to be here handling some matters."

Upon hearing his second brother’s words, Jiang Bing instantly stopped smiling, turned, opened the car door, and sat back inside.

"Driver! Take me back to Ping County, I’ll pay you double."

"Hahaha..."

The ride-sharing driver was amused by the siblings’ exchange.

He knew they were just joking around and didn’t take it seriously.

The driver got out of the car, smiling as he greeted Jiang Tao:

"Jiang Tao, long time no see, what kind of fortune have you come into lately?"

The driver’s name was Wang Hong, in his forties.

He worked in a food factory in Pingchang District, holding a minor leadership position.
