Chapter 536: Chapter 253: Insomnia Terminator Pillow Purchase Privileges!

Jiang Tao was touching the pillow he just bound to himself, and the answer was already in his mind.

Suddenly, the sapphire blue system screen flashed up automatically.

A prompt message appeared on the screen.

[Congratulations on triggering the special task [Insomnia Terminator 2]!]

[Task Name]: Insomnia Terminator 2

[Task Content]: Sell 10,000 Insomnia Terminator pillows! (0/10,000)

[Task Rewards]: Cash 880,000, salary card limit +80,000, constitution +8, charm value +8, item list +4!

[Note 1]: Sales at a price lower than 8,888 yuan will not be counted in the sales data.

"Huh, another special task triggered? Also, these rewards..."

Seeing the rewards for the task [Insomnia Terminator 2], Jiang Tao’s eyes lit up instantly, and his breathing became a little rapid!

Of course, what excited him the most was the final reward of "item list +4"!

As he obtained more and more special items through the intelligence system.

The item list was now a necessity for Jiang Tao.

Previously, putting the activated special items in the safe was safe, but also inconvenient in many ways.

With the item list in the system interface, he could access them anytime, which was much more convenient, safer, and more private.

Like [Wealth-Attracting Golden Toad], [Immortal Holly], [Money Breeds Money], [Salary Card].

And special items like [Jade Dew Bottle], [Delicious Claypot].

Jiang Tao had now placed them all in the system’s item list.

His few available item slots were already nearly full.

"Looks like there’s no need to experience it before opening the purchase permission."

"Just for the hefty task reward, I’ll definitely spend this million!"

Jiang Tao eagerly accepted the task [Insomnia Terminator 2].

Then he started to open the purchase permission for [Insomnia Terminator].

[Do you wish to spend 1 million yuan in cash to open the purchase rights for [Insomnia Terminator]?]

"Yes!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Tao directly chose to open the purchase permission.

[Deducting fees, please wait...]

[Deduction successful, opening purchase permission, please stay tuned for the results.]

[You have successfully opened the purchase permission for [Insomnia Terminator], wish you a happy life!]

Jiang Tao looked at the deduction alert on his phone and suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

Thinking about the generous rewards for completing the special task [Insomnia Terminator 2] alleviated the pain a bit.

"To make money, necessary upfront investments are a must. The money spent today will be returned to me tenfold, hundredfold sooner or later!"

Jiang Tao opened the [Marketplace] page on the system interface with a thought.

Sure enough, there was a pure white long pillow newly appearing on the marketplace page.

The price displayed below the pillow was 4,444 yuan!

Seeing this price, Jiang Tao was instantly enlightened.

Brother Tongzi stipulated that he couldn’t sell it for less than 8,888 yuan; it seems he wants a fifty-fifty split with me!

Jiang Tao wasn’t too surprised by this price.

Considering the strong attributes of [Insomnia Terminator], this price isn’t too outrageous.

[Do you want to spend 4,444 yuan to buy an Insomnia Terminator now?]

"Yes!"

With a thought, Jiang Tao opted for the purchase.

In the next second, with a swish, a pillow elegantly fell from the ceiling inside the room.

Jiang Tao, quick-eyed and skillful, stepped forward quickly and caught the falling pillow in his hands.

The pillow felt soft and cushy to the touch.

Placing his face against it, the pillow’s material was also very skin-friendly, feeling silky, cool, and comfortable.

Though he didn’t know what the pillow was made of, it looked quite high-end.

Of course, the appearance isn’t all that important.

With so many pillow vendors on the market, designs vary widely, each with its own characteristics.

The main thing is the performance!

The pillow Jiang Tao purchased from the system mall also had the attributes of sleep quality +3 and good dream +3.

The effect was exactly the same as the [Insomnia Terminator] he had, with no difference.

"Tonight maybe I should give one to Sister Bai, let her experience it well."

"If Sister Bai has a good experience, she might introduce some more clients to me."

Jiang Tao had made up his mind while looking at the [Insomnia Terminator] pillow in his hand.

"Ahooo..."

A wave of drowsiness hit, and Jiang Tao suddenly felt his head dizzy and his eyes a bit sore.

He was used to taking a nap at noon during this time, almost making it a human instinct.

"I’ll nap first, and let’s talk about it after meeting Sister Bai tonight. Also, I’ll get to experience the Insomnia Terminator pillow."

Jiang Tao said as he picked up a pillow and headed towards the bedroom to sleep.

Usually, every time he slept, Jiang Tao would spend 66 yuan to activate [Deep Sleep Mode] for himself.

Today at noon, to test the sleep-inducing effect of the [Insomnia Terminator], he didn’t activate the [Deep Sleep Mode].

He took off his coat, lay on the bed, and directly placed the pillow under his head.

Time for a nap!

When Jiang Tao opened his eyes again, it was already 4:30 in the afternoon.

That nap lasted about 2 hours.

After getting up from the bed, Jiang Tao walked to the window and stood there, looking into the distance, while his mind was focused on himself, feeling thoroughly.

After waking up, he felt the morning’s fatigue was completely gone, feeling full of vigor and very spirited.

His mind was clear, his breathing smooth, feeling as if his body was a few pounds lighter.

"Comfortable, feels similar to the [Deep Sleep Mode] sleep effect..."

After experiencing the [Insomnia Terminator] all afternoon, Jiang Tao roughly understood its effect.

"The sleep effect is good, just that..."

Suddenly, Jiang Tao recalled the somewhat absurd dream he’d had while sleeping earlier.

"Was it just a coincidence, or was it an effect of the other good dream attribute of this pillow?"

The sleep quality of the [Insomnia Terminator], Jiang Tao could confirm, was not a problem.

But whether that dream was related to the pillow, due to insufficient samples, wasn’t conclusive.

Ring ring ring—

The phone placed on the bedside table suddenly rang.

Jiang Tao turned his head towards the phone, walked a few steps to the bedside table, and picked up the ringing phone.

Seeing the caller’s name displayed was "Squad Leader Yuan".

"Hello, Squad Leader Yuan."

Jiang Tao swiped to answer the call, smiled, and greeted Yuan Mengqi on the other end.

"Mm... let’s meet at the Starbucks we went to before. I’ll be there in about ten minutes."

"Alright, bye-bye."

After a brief chat with Yuan Mengqi on the phone, Jiang Tao put down the phone and started getting dressed.

This afternoon, he also had an appointment to meet Yuan Mengqi’s brother Yuan Mengjie and his girlfriend Lin Ranran.

Dressed up, Jiang Tao took the elevator downstairs, and along the way, he was inevitably complimented and greeted by his neighbors above and below.

Downstairs, Jiang Tao found his Mercedes-Benz G-Class, started it, and drove straight towards the community gate.

In less than 15 minutes, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class slowly stopped at the entrance of the Starbucks coffee shop.

In the afternoon, the shop was indeed busier than in the morning, with many more young men and women.

There were couples who looked like romantically involved pairs.

Also, groups of several men and women.

After entering, Jiang Tao quickly scanned the room and soon locked his gaze on the pair sitting by the window.

He didn’t know Yuan Mengjie and was meeting for the first time today.

But he saw Lin Ranran earlier today at lunch when he, Chai Zijie, and Yuan Mengqi went to Qiao Claypot.

Though not extremely beautiful, the girl wasn’t the type you’d forget immediately.

Jiang Tao recognized her at a glance.

Sitting next to her was presumably Yuan Mengqi’s brother Yuan Mengjie.

As he approached, Jiang Tao clearly saw Yuan Mengjie’s facial features.

Interestingly, this guy bore quite a resemblance to his sister Yuan Mengqi.

When people sit together, anyone could see they are family.

"Yuan Mengjie? Lin Ranran, hello to both of you."

Jiang Tao stopped by Yuan Mengjie and Lin Ranran’s table, smiled, and greeted them.

"Hello, you’re President Jiang! I’ve always wanted to thank you in person!"

"Thank you for lending our family 300,000 yuan, thank you for your generous help!"

Yuan Mengjie stood up from his chair, sincerely looking at Jiang Tao with immense gratitude.

"Hello, President Jiang."

Lin Ranran also politely stood up to greet Jiang Tao, her eyes full of respect.

"No need to be so formal, and don’t be a stranger with me, have a seat and let’s chat."

Jiang Tao invited them to sit with a smile, then took a seat opposite them himself.
