…
After reading today’s intelligence, Lin Mo took out his phone and prepared to call his father immediately.
His father, Lin Changshui, had also worked in Rakshasa City when he was younger. As he grew older and could no longer find suitable work, he had no choice but to turn to laboring on construction sites.
Gradually, other people from their village, around fifty to sixty years old who couldn’t find work, also started to rely on Lin Changshui and work with him.
In time, Lin Changshui became something of a contractor, but he never exploited his fellow villagers for profit.
In fact, he wasn’t really a contractor, just the leader of a worker team.
The actual contractor ran off, and it had come to the point of needing to collect owed wages. Lin Mo guessed that a significant amount of money must be owed.
If it was just a few thousand yuan or about ten thousand, Lin Mo knew that these rural migrant workers, all honest people, wouldn’t make a fuss if they weren’t paid—they would let it be.
“It’s too late, Dad must be asleep by now.”
“If I call him now, he probably won’t get a good night’s sleep, especially since he already has trouble sleeping.”
“I’ll wait until tomorrow, I’ll contact him first thing in the morning.”
Lin Mo took a deep breath, decided to ask his father for details tomorrow, and then continued to read the other pieces of intelligence.
As for his sister possibly dating someone, Lin Mo didn’t really mind.
She’s already entered society. If someone wants to date, let them date—what matters is that the person is reliable.
The only thing that Lin Mo was anxious about was the last piece of intelligence about his daughter.
She would experience some unpleasant events soon?
That was far too vague. It had no clear direction!
“What kind of unpleasant event will happen?”
“Could it be that she’ll fail a speech contest? Or… is Zhang Ziyue going to bully her again?”
If it’s about failing a speech contest, Lin Mo felt that it wasn’t a big deal.
Nobody’s life is smooth sailing all the way!
Setbacks are not necessarily bad.
“Haha, if Zhang Ziyue dares to bully my daughter again, she can’t blame me for using the previous piece of intelligence I obtained to let her family taste the bitterness of falling apart.”
Lin Mo had learned a piece of intelligence regarding Zhang Ziyue’s family a few days ago.
If Lin Mo told that to Zhang Ziyue’s father, it would likely turn their household upside down!
“The rest of the intelligence combined could also earn me a fair amount of money.”
“Overall, today’s intelligence was a mix of good and bad, but the intelligence related to making money seemed more prevalent. Does this have something to do with the accumulation of my own wealth?”
The Intelligence System is very simple, so simple it only has one function, and that is to refresh daily, providing ten pieces of intelligence.
But this system was far from simple, some hidden settings and rules still required Lin Mo to fathom over a long period.
“Forget this for now—sleep!”
After going through all the intelligence, Lin Mo stretched and was about to close his eyes to sleep when he noticed Li Jinwen still sneakily holding her phone and refreshing the admin page of the antique forum repeatedly.
“Enough, Li, it’s time for bed—it’s so late already.”
He snatched the phone from her and, taking the opportunity, hugged his wife tight, consoling her, “Wait until tomorrow, you’ll have all the time to verify the authenticity of those coins!”
“But….”
“Sleep!”
Lin Mo hugged her even tighter, not giving Li Jinwen any chance to speak further.
He knew all too well that if he didn’t intervene, his wife would be too excited to sleep all night, just like the day he had first acquired the system.
…
“Husband!! Husband!!!”
“Husband, husband!!!!”
Lin Mo felt like he had just fallen asleep when Li Jinwen’s anxious voice reached his ears.
“Wife, I beg you, let me sleep a little longer!”
He turned over half-conscious, too sleepy to even want to open his eyes.
“Husband, open your eyes quick! Hurry!”
Li Jinwen pushed Lin Mo again, noticing he still didn’t seem to wake, and, desperate, she opened her mouth and bit down on his shoulder.
“Ahh——————”
Lin Mo let out a cry of pain, instantly wide awake, pleading, “Let… let go… it hurts… let go quickly!!”
Li Jinwen released her bite, wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, and thrust the phone screen in front of Lin Mo’s eyes: “Husband, look quickly!”
“What is it?!”
Since it was too close, Lin Mo couldn’t make out what was on the phone screen.
Confused, he took the phone, rubbed his eyes, and then held the phone at a distance for a better look, finally understanding why his wife was so excited.
There wasn’t any news on the Xianyu back end, but the post on the antique forum had blown up.
99+.
He casually opened a few messages, and almost all of them were about buying the Household Department Guangxu Yuanbao he held.
Briefly checking the sellers’ IP addresses, there were from out-of-town and local alike.
Some wanted to discuss the price, while others directly stated they could rush to Rakshasa City tomorrow to meet with Lin Mo and negotiate.
“Did not expect this thing to not only be valuable, but also in such hot demand?”
As Lin Mo was thinking this, without having the chance to speak, Li Jinwen asked anxiously, “Husband, what do we do now?”
“Do what?”
“That Guangxu Yuanbao is really worth over a million! It looks like they are all vying for it!”
“Isn’t that a good thing?”
“Ah… it is a good thing, but, but what should we do now?”
Lin Mo knew Li Jinwen was completely overwhelmed by joy, and her not reacting like Fan Wei who won the three-million-lottery and going crazy was already a sign of her mental strength.
“That’s a good thing!”
Lin Mo said with a smile, “Silly wife, there’s nothing to panic about. We just need to find a buyer nearby Rakshasa City, talk about the price, and sell the Guangxu Yuanbao to them today!”
“After getting the money, we’ll go buy a car!!”
