591: Going all in is a form of wisdom

Sighing at the magical life of the past five months, Ye Su casually used the [Intelligence Upgrade Opportunity] on tuesday's intelligence.

["Intelligence Upgrade Opportunity" used successfully. tuesday's intelligence level has been upgraded to: Level 7!]

Now that he was using the "Last Stand" function, which refreshed intelligence once a week, upgrading a specific day's intelligence individually had little impact. Ye Su naturally didn't care much about this upgrade.

Thinking about it, Ye Su switched to the "storage space" page, looking at the densely packed items stored there like a general store.

[Gold Bars (17 bars, weighing one kilogram each)]

[Intelligence Item - Product of the Book of Wealth: Gold (1,640 grams)]

"Gold prices are set to skyrocket. Hoarding physical gold now is definitely not as profitable as trading gold futures."

"Thinking about it this way, there seems to be no need to keep this gold. It's better to exchange it for cash and then buy gold futures with all of it."

"Coincidentally, after winning once with the 'Lucky Dice' on Saturday, I haven't guessed the numbers correctly for the past two days, racking up four wrong answers. If I sell the gold today, I can take another big gamble tomorrow."

All-in is a form of wisdom.

Without hesitation, Ye Su immediately decided to sell the gold and go all-in on gold futures.

"Open the 'System', and recycle the 18,640 grams of gold in the system space!"

[Gold recycled successfully!]

[Weight of gold recycled this time: 18,640 grams]

[Recycling unit price: 812 Yuan/gram]

[Total payment this time: 15,135,680 Yuan. Transferring to Host...]

Feeling his phone vibrate, Ye Su picked it up and took a look.

[Industrial and Commercial Bank of China: Your card ending in 9539 received 15,135,680 Yuan at 23:42 on July 21st. Current balance is 43,032,157 Yuan.]

"43 million. Tomorrow I need to transfer 3 million to Wang Anjie and 1.5 million to Huang Yanghua, leaving 37.5 million. Taking out 15 million to go all-in on another 100 lots of gold futures won't be too much pressure."

"Maybe if I guess the 'Lucky Dice' correctly later and bring in over 30 million, I'll go all-in on 300 lots!"

After immersing himself in the thought of going all-in for a while, Ye Su scrolled through his phone out of boredom.

As soon as it struck twelve, the system popped up another prompt on time.

[Congratulations Host, you have successfully triggered the "Treasure Falling Money" skill, receiving a cash reward for yesterday's physical store turnover: 195,225 Yuan!]

Glancing at the earnings from "Treasure Falling Money", Ye Su flicked his wrist, and two red dice appeared out of thin air in his hand.

[Host's total intelligence earnings yesterday: 15,429,021 Yuan!]

"Let's do this!"

Ye Su chose the number "1" for both dice and then threw them both onto the ground.

Clatter, clatter—

The two dice rolled forward together and then stopped on the numbers "2" and "4" respectively.

"Ah!"

Missing out on thirty million, Ye Su cried out in pain:

"Damn it, if I had known, I wouldn't have gone all-in. I should have kept half the gold bars to sell today!"

Ye Su, who was just shouting "All-in is a form of wisdom," now only wanted to say:

All-in? All-in my foot!

"Fine, I can only buy a hundred lots of gold futures tomorrow."

Fortunately, there were intelligence tips for the gold price, so Ye Su could go all-in with peace of mind without worrying about failing.

After waiting in vain for over ten minutes and failing to guess the numbers in the end, Ye Su irritably took back the two dice and fell asleep with his arms around both women... At nine o'clock the next morning, Ye Su went out with Chen Xinyi, preparing to visit Ye Kaijun.

Women are indeed more meticulous than men.

With Chen Xinyi's reminder, Ye Su remembered that he could buy a wheelchair. He could push Ye Kaijun in the wheelchair when taking him out, so Ye Kaijun wouldn't get too tired.

Worried about Ye Kaijun going out alone in his condition, Ye Su didn't buy an electric wheelchair once they reached the store. Instead, following the clerk's recommendation, he bought a high-end wheelchair for 4,000 Yuan, which was said to be more comfortable to sit in.

After buying the wheelchair, they arrived at Ye Kaijun's house at around nine-thirty.

Knock, knock, knock—

Ye Su knocked and waited a moment before Ye Kaijun slowly opened the door.

It was evident that under the effect of the "Pain Alleviation" function, Ye Kaijun's complexion was a bit better than yesterday; at least he wasn't frowning from time to time due to the torment of his illness.

"Uncle Jun."

Seeing Ye Su, Ye Kaijun smiled happily. "I knew it was you."

Then he looked at Chen Xinyi. "Chen Xinyi is here too."

"Yes," Chen Xinyi nodded politely and greeted him, "Hello, Uncle Jun."

"Haha, good."

After a kind smile, Ye Kaijun looked at the wheelchair Ye Su was pushing and asked:

"This is?"

Ye Su pointed at Chen Xinyi with his thumb. "She said we should buy a wheelchair for you so you can sit in it when we take you out. That way, you won't get too tired."

"Oh my," Ye Kaijun's heart warmed, but he said with concern:

"I'm already in this state; it won't be used for many days. Why waste your money on this?"

Chen Xinyi had always been emotional. Hearing Ye Kaijun's words, her nose suddenly felt sour:

"Uncle Jun, don't talk like that. Didn't the doctors say that many illnesses are related to one's state of mind? If you keep a good attitude, maybe your condition will even improve!"

Seeing Chen Xinyi's reaction, Ye Kaijun immediately changed his tune, afraid of affecting her mood:

"Alright, I'll listen to you."

Then he gestured to the two of them. "Come on in."

After entering, Ye Su set the wheelchair aside, and the two of them sat on the sofa to chat with Ye Kaijun.

"Uncle Jun, how are you feeling today?"

"Pretty good." Ye Kaijun clenched his fists and moved them around a bit:

"I don't know if it's psychological, but after you took me out for a stroll yesterday, my mood relaxed a lot, and even the pain throughout my body has vanished."

Hearing Ye Kaijun say this, Ye Su also confirmed that the effect of "Pain Alleviation" was indeed quite good:

"As long as it doesn't hurt."

Hearing this, Chen Xinyi immediately suggested, "Since going out for walks is beneficial, why don't we take you out for another stroll this morning?"

"It's certainly great to have someone accompany me, but I'm afraid you're busy and I'll delay your important business."

Ye Su laughed. "We're not busy. Both of us are unemployed vagrants; we don't have that much important business to attend to."

"Alright," Ye Kaijun said happily, "then I'll have to trouble you two to take this old man out for some fresh air."

Chen Xinyi hurriedly waved her hand. "It's no trouble at all."

"Exactly," Ye Su nodded in agreement.

"Haha."

[Ding!]

Just as Ye Kaijun was laughing heartily, a "hidden task" suddenly popped up before Ye Su's eyes.

[Ye Kaijun has little time left and has left his inheritance to the Host. Now activating "hidden task - Caring for the Empty-Nest Elderly 2.0" for the Host!]

[Task Name: Caring for the Empty-Nest Elderly 2.0!]

[Task Content: There are no specific requirements for this task; the Host only needs to have lunch with Ye Kaijun once!]

[Task Reward: 1 million Yuan in cash, and one-time usage rights for the "Longevity and Natural Death" function!]
