Chapter 425 - 199: Cool Sunglasses
After breakfast, Dad and Mom went downstairs to the food factory for work first.
Today, everyone at the food factory is only working a half-day shift.
No specific production tasks are arranged either.
The main work involves cleaning up, maintaining equipment, sorting out inventory, and the like.
After lunch, apart from Jiang Jianjun who stays on duty, everyone else can return to the hometown early.
Currently, all employees of the food factory were called from Jiang Tao’s hometown, with a few driving over.
During holidays, it’s very convenient for factory workers to carpool home together.
No need to crowd onto buses, transfer to the subway, and then take a train which is quite troublesome.
From Jiang’s Food Factory to the hometown Jiang Family Manor, the navigation shows a distance of just over 430 kilometers.
Leaving at noon, they’ll be home around five or six in the afternoon.
This is the first holiday since the establishment of Jiang’s Food Factory.
After discussing with his parents, Jiang Tao prepared holiday gifts for all the factory employees.
These gifts will be distributed to everyone this morning.
The gifts are merely some basic items like rice, flour, and oil. Although not expensive, they carry sentimental value.
Of course, the cost can be reimbursed using the Salary Card funds, so Jiang Tao won’t have to spend his own money.
After his parents left, Jiang Tao also took the elevator downstairs, with the lively and bouncing Jiang Xue, like a little monkey.
The first thing this morning is to get Third Brother’s sunglasses.
When the father and son arrived at unit 1501 of building 78, it was just about 7:30 in the morning.
Jiang Tao took out a key from his pocket to open the door, and Jiang Xue dashed into Jiang Bing’s bedroom.
"Auntie, it’s time to get up and go to work!"
"The sun’s already up, lazybones, wake up!"
"Stop it, let me sleep a bit more."
"Wow! You’re sleeping without clothes, aren’t you ashamed~?"
"Daddy, come look, Auntie is sleeping without clothes on!"
"Damn you, shut your mouth!"
"Boohoo..."
"..."
Listening to the noise from the room, Jiang Tao smiled and shook his head, heading straight to sit on the sofa in the living room.
"Third Brother, hurry and get up, it’s the last half-day of work, go and finish the last shift at the factory."
"Got it! Pressuring me to go to work even at home! I’m utterly convinced!"
Jiang Tao waited in the living room for about five minutes until the disheveled Third Brother came out wearing slippers, scratching his head.
Jiang Bing looked at Jiang Tao with a deeply resentful gaze as if he owed her hundreds of thousands.
Jiang Tao ignored Third Brother’s look, smilingly asked:
"Third Brother, where are the sunglasses you bought yesterday? Let me see again."
"Inside the drawer on the right-hand side of the coffee table, take them yourself!"
Without much thought, Jiang Bing said offhandedly and then slipped into the bathroom to freshen up.
Jiang Tao opened the drawer and indeed found a small box emitting a dim golden light inside.
He took out the small box, opened the lid, and inside were the sunglasses he saw yesterday.
Before triggering related notifications, these sunglasses didn’t look different from any others.
But after triggering the notifications, looking at them now.
The sunglasses glimmered with a layer of dim golden light in his view, looking particularly special.
No wonder that even with Brother Tongzi’s prompts of "special items," others can’t bind and activate them.
Jiang Tao looked towards the bathroom and shouted:
"Third Brother, I’ve requisitioned these glasses; you need to buy a new pair."
"No way!!! I spent over a thousand bucks and haven’t worn them much!"
"This will be reimbursed, and the new one too."
"Thank you, boss!"
Upon hearing such a good deal, Jiang Bing quickly kneeled in gratitude!
Who would refuse an opportunity to get a pair of Oakleys worth two to three thousand for free?
[Ding! You have gained ownership of the sunglasses, please bind them in an environment without third-party observation.]
Just as Jiang Bing finished speaking, a notification flashed past Jiang Tao’s retina.
He glanced at Jiang Xue coming out of the bedroom holding a plush toy.
The "observer" mentioned in the notification was clearly his own Little Cotton Padded Jacket.
"Let’s go, Xiao Xue, Daddy will take you back to your mom first, there’s still some work to do this morning."
"I just got here, I want to play with Auntie more."
Jiang Xue pouted, looking rather reluctant.
"Second Brother, you can go do your thing, I’ll send Xiao Xue home on my way to work."
"Okay, you send her home then, bye Xiao Xue, Daddy will be back after work."
Hearing Third Brother’s voice from the bathroom, Jiang Tao smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Okay~ Good luck at work, Daddy~ Come back soon!"
"Off we go."
Jiang Tao smiled, ruffled Little Cotton Padded Jacket’s hair, bid her goodbye, and turned towards the door.
After leaving, taking the elevator downstairs, Jiang Tao walked to his parked Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
He first opened the rear car door and sat in the back seat.
This morning, the community was bustling with people and cars driving by Jiang Tao’s car, all hustling to work, creating a busy scene.
Sitting in the back seat, Jiang Tao tried seven to eight times, finally succeeding in binding the sunglasses and activating new attributes.
