The marshals felt it was a pity that such a good thing couldn't be used. If it could be used, orders could be issued from anywhere, which would be very convenient.

"When I go to the Academy of Sciences, I will have someone recommend talents and try to recruit all kinds of talents that have been sent down."

"We must also vet people while recruiting. These things are from the future and can change the world. We can't let spies detect even the slightest thing."

"Why not just set up a new research institute, and only researchers who pass the review can enter the new institute?"

"This idea is good. The new research institute should be kept under the highest level of secrecy."

After discussions among several key figures, a new top-secret research unit was established.

From then on, research institutes with cutting-edge technologies frequently appeared around Zhengyangmen.

At Zhou Yongcheng's residence, Han Chunming departs.

After Han Chunming left, the secretary arranged by the old man entered the lobby.

"Sir, I am the secretary assigned to you by the leader. My name is Zhao Xiufang. You can ask me to handle anything you need." Zhao Xiufang said to Zhou Yongcheng with a smile.

Zhao Xiufang was originally a secretary in the General Office, but the old man arranged for her to be Zhou Yongcheng's secretary.

When she arrived, the old man said that Zhou Yongcheng should be treated the same way he was treated. This made Zhao Xiufang curious about the background of this young man who was not even as old as her, and why the old man valued him so much.

"There's something I need to do right now. I'd like to find a place to open a shop. Can you take me to see it?"

After leaving the mansion, Zhou Yongcheng looked at the sky and asked Zhao Xiufang, "What time is it now?"

Zhao Xiufang glanced at her watch and said, "One o'clock."

"No wonder I'm a little hungry. Let's go eat first, and then we can look at the shop."

They arrived at the restaurant by car.

After ordering the food, Zhou Yongcheng saw Zhao Xiufang take out some tickets and money to pay the bill, and he realized that he didn't have any money from this era, which was a bit embarrassing.

It seems I'll have to ask the elders for some money, otherwise I won't be able to open a shop or start a company.

"I didn't bring any money with me today. I'll pay you back in a couple of days," Zhou Yongcheng said somewhat embarrassed.

“Sir, you don’t need to repay the money. The commander said that you can tell me if you need money, no matter how much you need, and I can apply to the higher-ups.”

The old man really arranged everything perfectly. It seems I need to speed up the shopping when I get back to repay his kindness.

After the meal, Secretary Zhao took Zhou Yongcheng on a tour of Yanjing City. In the end, Zhou Yongcheng took a fancy to a house that could be used as a supermarket store.

The house occupies a large area; Zhou Yongcheng roughly estimated that it covers at least two or three hundred square meters.

With the property deal settled, the matter of buying and selling the store was handed over to Secretary Zhao, and Zhou Yongcheng only needed to wait for the results.

Back at his residence, Zhou Yongcheng opened the box the old man had brought him. The box was full of jadeite pieces, some large and some small. The larger pieces were ornaments, and the smaller ones were pendants. Zhou Yongcheng couldn't estimate the value of this box of jadeite.

The other box contained medicinal herbs, many of which Zhou Yongcheng did not recognize, which was a bit awkward.

Let's leave the things here for now. It's safer here than in the real world, since there are guards protecting this place.

There's nothing much going on in the world under Zhengyang Gate for now, so I should go back to the real world. Staying here too long will make me age faster.

Back in the real world, Zhou Yongcheng lay in bed playing on his phone, and eventually fell asleep.

In the morning, Zhou Yongcheng drove off to shop again. Books were an essential item, and yesterday's purchases were only a portion of what he had bought. Of course, the more books the better. Zhou Yongcheng didn't know if he bought any duplicates, but even if he did, it didn't matter. Others might even be hoping to have more of each book, so that everyone wouldn't have to fight over the same one.

Zhou Yongcheng only stopped buying books after he had filled the storage space and even the trunk and back seats of his car with them.

In the city, Zhou Yongcheng didn't dare to disappear into thin air, so he could only drive back to his rented apartment first.

After getting on the highway, it took several hours to get back to the rented room. Zhou Yongcheng then delivered all the books he had purchased to Zhengyangmenxia World.

He had just come out of the inner room when Secretary Zhao came to report that Han Chunming had been waiting for a long time.

"Did you buy the house I liked yesterday?" Zhou Yongcheng asked.

"It's already been purchased. Here's the property certificate." Secretary Zhao took the property certificate out of his briefcase.

Upon receiving the property certificate, he saw that the house was indeed registered under his name. It's good to have privileges.

"I don't even have an ID card, so how did you get the property certificate?" Zhou Yongcheng asked curiously.

"Your identity is top secret, and everything concerning you is handled with special care."

And this kind of operation?

Zhou Yongcheng put away the property certificate and walked out of the lobby with Secretary Zhao. There they saw Han Chunming sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard, with a bag on the table.

When Han Chunming met Zhou Yongcheng, he handed him the bag. Zhou Yongcheng looked at it and saw that the bag contained jade, gemstones, and medicinal herbs that Han Chunming had collected for him.

After putting their things away, the three of them went together to the house that Zhou Yongcheng had his eye on.

“This building is what I’m going to use to open my shop. I’m going to renovate it, and I’ll leave the renovation to you, Chunming. From now on, you’ll be in charge of this shop, and you’ll have to hire the staff yourself,” Zhou Yongcheng said to Han Chunming with a smile.

"Don't worry, sir, I will definitely not let you down."

Next, Zhou Yongcheng instructed Han Chunming on how to decorate the first floor. Zhou Yongcheng planned to decorate the first floor in the style of a modern supermarket, since he was running a supermarket.

There are many rooms on the second floor, which can be used as offices or as rest areas for employees. Han Chunming can decide how to use them.

The renovation was entrusted to Han Chunming, and Zhou Yongcheng instructed Han Chunming to contact Secretary Zhao for the renovation expenses.

Zhou Yongcheng left Secretary Zhao and Han Chunming at the shop while he returned to his residence.

Back in the real world, Zhou Yongcheng got busy again, and he was about to start another big shopping spree.

We don't need to rush to buy the things sold in the supermarket. The supermarket is still under renovation, so we need to buy more modern technology products for the elderly.

Zhou Yongcheng thought about what to buy and decided to buy a batch of car parts first. The storage space was too small. If it were bigger, he could send the whole car over directly, instead of only being able to buy parts now.

Wanting to buy something, Zhou Yongcheng went downstairs to the parking area and saw several people gathered around the car.

At this point, Zhou Yongcheng felt that owning a luxury car might be too high-profile and would attract attention.

He decided to leave the car at bay for the time being and take a taxi to the high-speed rail station to pick up the other car, as he was afraid of attracting the attention of those with ulterior motives.

Zhou Yongcheng took a ride-hailing car to the high-speed rail station and drove his domestically produced car to the auto parts market.

As he drove, Zhou Yongcheng felt the difference in experience brought about by the price of the car; luxury cars were definitely more comfortable to drive.

Upon arriving at the auto parts market, Zhou Yongcheng parked his car in front of a shop.

"Boss, want to come and look at the engine?"

When customers come in, the shop owner is very welcoming.

"Come and take a look. Do you only sell engines here?" Zhou Yongcheng asked.

"We also have transmissions, but we don't know what kind of engine and transmission you need."

"I don't know much about this. How much is all the stock in your store worth?" Zhou Yongcheng was prepared to buy all the engines and transmissions in the store.

The boss looked at the ordinary-looking young man and wondered why he asked that question.

What does the boss mean by that?
