Daily Intelligence System: Financial Independence-Chapter 246 - 146: Skyrocketing Blueberry Bonsai Prices, Wang Cai’s Little Bichon, and Gold! (3-in-1 Subscription Request)
"I’ve seen the puppy at Grandma Liu’s house, it’s so beautiful!"
"Please, Mom, let’s buy it and bring it home."
Before Xu Li could say anything, Jiang Xue was already pleading pitifully.
During the New Year at their hometown, when Jiang Xue saw the little Bichon Frise that Jiang Tao rescued with his nephews from the well, she wanted one ever since.
Today, when Jiang Tao brought it up again, she was, of course, the first to respond, raising both hands in support!
"Alright, alright, I give in to you two. If I object, wouldn’t I just be the spoilsport?"
Xu Li gave Jiang Tao a playful glare but ultimately went along with their wishes.
"Yay yay yay! I’ll soon have a new friend too! Don’t worry, mom, I’ll take good care of it, I promise!"
"Thank you, mom~"
Jiang Xue was overjoyed to finally have her very own pet dog.
Jiang Tao nodded with a smile and said, "After dinner, I’ll go downstairs to ask Grandma Liu if she’s willing to sell. It’s not a sure thing yet."
"I’ll go too, I’ll go too!"
Jiang Xue was equally excited.
Dad and mom just watched happily from the side, without giving any opinions.
"Oh right, Dad, yesterday I bought you an electric scooter from Li Ming for commute and practice."
After discussing the dog, Jiang Tao looked at his dad and said:
"You and mom can use it to commute to and from work, it’ll be more convenient."
"The keys are hanging on the coat rack by the door, and the scooter’s parked downstairs, not registered yet."
"You should have told us before buying the scooter, there’s a bus stop right outside the community, just a few stops, no need to buy a scooter!"
Although mom complained verbally, she knew it was her son’s filial gesture, and she was happy inside.
Jiang Tao laughed, "The scooter wasn’t expensive, only a little over 20,000 yuan, you can use it as practice, and I’ll buy you a new one once you’re familiar."
"New or old doesn’t matter, as long as it can shield from the wind and rain, we don’t pursue face value, practicality is what matters."
Jiang Wen also had a smile on his face, even though he was an experienced driver, he was very happy inside.
How bad can it be compared to his old Jetta back home?
Spending over 20,000 yuan also shows the son’s intentions.
How many children in the village spend over 20,000 yuan to buy a scooter for their parents?
They finished breakfast amid laughter and chatter.
Dad and mom went downstairs to drive to the processing plant.
Today, the Eight Treasure Pickles at the Delicious Pickle Jar are ready and need to be re-marinated.
The stall at the vegetable market is still under renovation, and the company’s paperwork is still pending.
Jiang Tao wasn’t short of money and wasn’t in a hurry to cash in the products.
The completed Eight Treasure Pickles can be stored for now.
The Delicious Pickle Jar must be fully utilized to avoid wasting cooldown time.
While Xu Li was washing up in the kitchen, Jiang Tao and Jiang Xue took the elevator down to the 12th floor.
Holding hands, they walked to the door of 1204 and knocked.
"Who is it, wait a moment."
After about ten seconds, the door opened from the inside.
Liu Yunyun appeared at the door with a little Bichon Frise jumping around her legs, wagging its tail.
"Hello, Grandma Liu! Your dog is so cute!"
After greeting Old Mrs. Liu, Jiang Xue’s attention was immediately drawn to the little Bichon Frise by her legs, showing an excited expression.
"Sweet girl~ Young man, is there anything you need?"
Liu Yunyun praised Jiang Xue and then looked at Jiang Tao with a slightly puzzled expression.
They lived upstairs and downstairs from each other, familiar but not acquainted.
She didn’t even know Jiang Tao’s full name, always calling him ’young man’ when they met.
"Aunt Liu, my name is Jiang Tao, you can call me Xiao Jiang, or just my name. This is my daughter, Jiang Xue."
"I heard you were considering not keeping your puppy, so I came to ask if you’re willing to sell it, I’d like to buy it for my daughter."
Jiang Tao got straight to the point with Liu Yunyun.
"You want to buy the dog?"
Upon hearing Jiang Tao, Liu Yunyun’s face immediately lit up with joy.
After discussions with her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, they agreed to sell the dog.
Just mentioning the little Bichon Frise brought tears of frustration to Liu Yunyun.
Her granddaughter had once demanded to buy it, refusing to eat and throwing tantrums if not.
In Beijing, most kids are the only child, pampered endlessly.
Oh well!
Had no choice, buy it!
Then, less than two weeks after buying it, the granddaughter got into roller skating.
Now every day after school, she’s taken by her mother to the roller skating training class, leaving the Bichon Frise neglected.
Liu Yunyun, who preferred gardening over furry animals, didn’t like it at all.
In Jiang Xue’s eyes, the Bichon Frise was cute and pretty.
But to Liu Yunyun, it was nothing but a burden and nuisance.
To send the Bichon Frise away sooner, she even called her son on a business trip to convince the daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
With Liu Yunyun’s persistence, they finally agreed to sell the Bichon Frise, but not at a big loss.
After all, it was purchased with considerable cost.
"Aunt Liu, that’s perfect. I was just thinking of buying a companion for my daughter, and she really likes your little Bichon Frise."
"Name your price, if it’s reasonable, I’ll take it home today."
Though Jiang Tao was determined to buy the Bichon Frise, he remained calm when asking the price.
