Zhou Yongcheng flashed what he thought was a charming smile and said, "I want everything in your shop. Name your price."

The shop owner thought Zhou Yongcheng was joking and said, "Boss, the goods in my shop are worth several million. Are you sure you want them all?"

"Can you deliver to my door? I have a warehouse in the Economic Development Zone. If you can deliver the goods to the Economic Development Zone, I'll take all of your goods."

After some haggling with the shop owner, Zhou Yongcheng bought all the goods in the shop for 7.6 million yuan. The shop owner even had to hire someone to deliver the goods to the warehouse designated by Zhou Yongcheng.

The shop owner has a wide variety of engines, including those for cars and motorcycles, some good and some bad.

Zhou Yongcheng doesn't need to worry about these things; they're just meant to be disassembled and studied by others anyway.

The shop owner immediately called a car and hired people to load the goods. They worked until evening to deliver everything to the temporary warehouse rented by Zhou Yongcheng.

"Mr. Zhou, if you need engines, transmissions, or other parts in the future, you can contact me."

The shop owner was overjoyed; he never expected to have such good luck today, managing to clear out his entire shop.

"It's easy to talk about."

Zhou Yongcheng stood at the warehouse door watching the shop owner and his group drive away. He then went inside the warehouse, closed the door, and began moving the contents of the warehouse into the Zhengyangmen Xia World.

There were so many things in the warehouse, and some of the engines were so heavy that he couldn't move them by himself.

Fortunately, he only needs to place his hand on the engine to put things into the storage space. If he were to move things to the lower world of Zhengyangmen, it would be a real hassle.

After working for who knows how long, they finally moved everything from the warehouse to the world below Zhengyang Gate.

Putting aside the things moved to the world below Zhengyangmen, the most urgent thing is to get something to eat; he's really starving after working so hard for so long.

We drove to the night market and had a good meal.

Back in his rented room, Zhou Yongcheng did the math. He had spent over seven million yuan that day, including two million yuan on a car, nearly ten million yuan was gone, and he only had about a million yuan left in his account. This money was too easy to spend.

Looks like I'll have to prepare to sell things again.

Upon arriving at the world beneath Zhengyang Gate, Secretary Zhao was not there; he was probably busy with shop matters with Han Chunming.

Zhou Yongcheng then instructed the guards to call the old man to send someone to remove the items.

A short while later, the old man arrived with several bigwigs in military uniforms.

Zhou Yongcheng was very excited when he saw the several bigwigs in military uniforms. "Marshal! These are living marshals! Who wouldn't be excited to see them?"

"Greetings, Marshals." Zhou Yongcheng hurriedly greeted them.

"Not bad, young man."

"Yongcheng must have brought something from the future again when he called us here," the old man said with a smile.

"Yes, besides books, we also have some engines and gearboxes. There are motorcycle engines and car engines. There are many different models, and I don't know the specific parameters. You can let the researchers study them," Zhou Yongcheng said.

"Where is the thing?" an old general asked.

"In the backyard."

Zhou Yongcheng led them to the backyard, where all sorts of engines and gearboxes were piled up.

The old man and the marshals didn't recognize the things in the courtyard. They only knew that these were precious treasures, the hope for the rise of the Dragon Kingdom.

"Should I have all these things moved to the research institute?" a marshal said, looking at the old man.

"Let's move everything over there, have people disassemble and study it, and strive to research and produce our own cars as soon as possible," the old man said.

The marshal in charge of the research institute went out to call people in to move things in, and Zhou Yongcheng and the others came to the lobby, sat down, and started chatting.

Is Yongcheng's lifestyle suitable for our time?

"I'm not used to it. Although the air is better in this era than in modern times, there is no internet here, so I can't go online. There are no entertainment options, so it's a bit boring."

"Our era is certainly incomparable to the future world. With your help, the time it takes for our Dragon Kingdom to enter modernization will be greatly shortened."

After chatting for a while, all the things Zhou Yongcheng had sent from the real world were loaded onto the car, and the old man and several marshals left Zhou Yongcheng's residence together.

After all, they are leaders with many responsibilities, unlike Zhou Yongcheng who has so much free time.

After seeing off the bigwigs, Zhou Yongcheng didn't stay there any longer and went straight back to the real world.

In the rented room, Zhou Yongcheng took a shower and sat on the bed to think about what to do next.

Zhou Yongcheng from Jiangnan Province is not going to stay any longer; he wants to go back to his hometown for a visit.

He only has a little over a million yuan left, and he needs to sell some jade pendants or medicinal herbs to ensure he has enough funds.

He has two cars in Jiangnan Province. He'll definitely drive the luxury car back, but he'll just sell the domestic car.

Having figured out what to do next, Zhou Yongcheng quickly fell asleep.

The next day, Zhou Yongcheng drove his domestically produced car to the used car market.

I asked around at several places, but the prices weren't satisfactory. With the prices of gasoline cars plummeting, the used car market has also been impacted.

He only sold his domestically produced car for around ten thousand yuan.

I've sold the car, and I also need to cancel the rental agreement. There's still a deposit left. Although I'm not short of money now, I won't squander it carelessly.

After returning from the warehouse, Zhou Yongcheng went back to his rented room and began to tidy it up. Looking at the things inside, he realized that all the things in this room were his entire fortune from working in Jiangnan Province all those years.

He only packed his own clothes and left everything else behind.

He called the landlord to cancel his lease. He had lived in the house for over two years, and the landlord was a nice person; otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed for so long.

He had been staying in different places for months at a time because of the landlords he had rented before.

The landlord arrived at the rental house soon after.

"Is Xiao Zhou dissatisfied with this house?" The landlord was a man in his fifties who had a good relationship with all his tenants.

"No, Uncle Li, it's me who's going back. I've been working in Jiangnan for seven or eight years and haven't been back. It's time to go back and visit," Zhou Yongcheng said.

"You quit your job?"

"I quit. I wouldn't have checked out if I hadn't resigned."

"I haven't been back for so many years, I have to go back and take a look."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the landlord began his work, reading the electricity and water meters.

Zhou Yongcheng rented the house and was charged quarterly. Only a little over a month had passed in this quarter. Zhou Yongcheng originally thought that the landlord would only give him a deposit. Unexpectedly, the landlord not only returned his deposit but also refunded the remaining rent for this quarter.

This landlord is the best one Zhou Yongcheng has encountered in all his years of renting houses.

"Xiao Zhou, don't you want these things in the room anymore?" the landlord asked.

“No, let’s keep it for the next tenant. It would be a waste to throw it away,” Zhou Yongcheng said.

"alright."

"Uncle Li, I'm leaving now. Hope we meet again someday."

"Drive slower on the road."

Zhou Yongcheng carried his storage box downstairs, put the items in his car, and drove away from the place where he had worked for eight years.

Zhou Yongcheng's hometown is in Wuling Province, which is more than 1,000 kilometers away from Jiangnan Province, requiring more than ten hours of driving.

The distance is a bit far, so Zhou Yongcheng plans to drive half the way first and the other half tomorrow, since there's no rush.
