This was a great man who ushered in a great era, so Zhou Yongcheng couldn't help but be excited.

The old man looked Zhou Yongcheng up and down, a kind smile on his face, and said, "Young friend, you're very excited to see me. Do you know me?"

"I've only seen your photos; I've certainly never met you in person," Zhou Yongcheng said, suppressing his excitement.

The old man asked Zhou Yongcheng to sit down and asked, "I heard you come from the future. Can you tell me what the future world is like?"

"It's hard to describe. Please wait a moment, I'll be right back."

After Zhou Yongcheng finished speaking, he disappeared from his chair.

Looking at the spot where Zhou Yongcheng disappeared, the old man smiled and said to Secretary Li, "A remarkable young man. It seems he really comes from the future. I really want to see what his future is like, and whether our Dragon Kingdom has found its own path."

“Under the leadership of our leader, our Dragon Kingdom has certainly forged its own path,” Li Shufang replied.

The old man smiled but didn't say anything.

Inside the police station, when the police were about to let Han Chunming leave, he could hardly believe it.

"Can we really leave now?"

"real."

"Where are our goods?" Han Chunming asked, mustering his courage.

Those goods belong to Boss Zhou; it wouldn't do for them to get lost.

"We haven't touched the goods in your courtyard. As for the goods you brought with you, you can take them with you later."

To Han Chunming and his companions' disbelief, they left the police station with the confiscated goods and money.

"Chun... Chunming, we're not... we're not dreaming, are we?" Taozi asked in disbelief.

"No, I can hardly believe it's true either. It's getting late, I should go home first, my family must be very worried."

Han Chunming placed the goods on the back rack of his bicycle and rode away from the police station at high speed, heading home.

When they got home, their courtyard house was bustling with activity as everyone was looking for Han Chunming.

When Cheng Jianjun saw Han Chunming appear, he looked incredulous. He had personally witnessed Han Chunming being arrested, so how could Han Chunming be back?

"Chunming, where have you been? You haven't come back so late. Do you know how worried everyone was about you?" Su Meng asked with concern.

"I didn't go anywhere, something just came up and I was held up," Han Chunming replied casually.

Su Meng disliked Han Chunming's attitude and ran back into the house with a cold snort.

"Chunming, are you asking for a beating? You're back so late..." Han's mother grabbed Han Chunming's ear and gave him a good scolding.

Everyone was relieved to see that Han Chunming had returned. In this era, people are genuinely cared for. Of course, backstabbing like Cheng Jianjun is an exception.

Zhou Yongcheng returned to his rented room, took out his laptop, quickly turned it on, and found videos of the military parade, Chinese military exercises, military displays of strength, and various videos showcasing the country's industrial capabilities.

He downloaded a lot of videos, covering various topics, which took him some time.

After the video download was complete, Zhou Yongcheng took his laptop back to the old man's house.

Zhou Yongcheng showed the videos in his laptop to the old man and Secretary Li, and their eyes lit up.

They asked Zhou Yongcheng questions while watching the video, and Zhou Yongcheng also explained the content of the video to the two bigwigs while watching it.

Zhou Yongcheng explained everything he knew to the two business leaders, including national strategic assets such as aircraft carriers, Dongfeng missiles, J-series fighter jets, and transport aircraft, as well as civilian products such as airplanes, cars, mobile phones, and computers.

Before the video was even finished, it was already two or three in the morning. The two big shots had been notified several times to go to sleep, but they had all turned it down, saying they would go to sleep right away.

Finally, Zhou Yongcheng said the computer was out of power and he would check it again tomorrow, which allowed the two bigwigs to go back and rest.

Secretary Li left the old man's courtyard with reluctance, and the old man immediately arranged for Zhou Yongcheng to stay at his home, saying that he would continue to observe him the next day.

Over the next few days, Zhou Yongcheng spent most of his time with the elderly, showing them videos and explaining the development process from the 1970s and 80s to 2024.

Whenever he had free time, Secretary Li would come over to watch the videos and listen to Zhou Yongcheng's explanations.

"After listening to Yongcheng's explanation, I have more confidence in the future development of our Dragon Kingdom. Yongcheng, could you get some technical data from the future world?" the old man asked.

“Technical information that is ahead of its time is absolutely no problem. It’s basically all available online, and related books can also be bought in bookstores. In modern society, as long as it doesn’t involve classified information or illegal activities, you can get it as long as you have money,” Zhou Yongcheng said.

"As long as it's something from the future, Yongcheng, just bring it over. Feel free to make any requests you may have."

Zhou Yongcheng said embarrassedly, "In the future world, I was just a laborer with little money. I came to this world by accident. I originally just wanted to be a middleman, make some money, and achieve financial freedom. I didn't expect to be caught by the police. Since you've said so, I will definitely try my best to bring some modern things over, but I don't have much money in the modern world."

"Then what do you think will be valuable in the future world? Don't be afraid, just ask. As long as it exists, I will have someone find it for you."

This is crucial to the development of China. With Zhou Yongcheng, China will no longer fear foreign technological blockades, and may even surpass foreign countries. Therefore, whatever Zhou Yongcheng wants, the old man will help him achieve it.

"Many of these things would be priceless in modern times, but there are some things I dare not sell. Just find me some precious medicinal herbs, jade, and emeralds." Zhou Yongcheng didn't ask for an exorbitant price; he only wanted things he could get rid of temporarily.

Things like gold and antiques are difficult to resell and can cause unnecessary trouble.

The old man gave Zhou Yongcheng an approving look. This young man hadn't been blinded by huge profits; he was very clear-headed and knew what he could and couldn't touch.

The old man told Zhou Yongcheng to wait a moment while he sent someone to fetch what Zhou Yongcheng needed.

Not long after, a guard came in carrying two small boxes and placed them in front of the old man.

The old man pushed the box in front of Zhou Yongcheng and said, "Yongcheng, this is all for now, but there will be more later. Just tell me what you need, and I will do my best to meet your needs."

Zhou Yongcheng picked up a small box. The box was made of wood, and he didn't recognize what kind of wood it was, but just by looking at the exquisite craftsmanship of the box, he knew that it was no ordinary item.

The box was neither too big nor too small, about 20 or 30 centimeters long and only a dozen centimeters wide, with its height and width being roughly the same. The box was very heavy, and Zhou Yongcheng guessed that it contained jade or emeralds. If it contained medicinal herbs, it certainly wouldn't be that heavy.

Upon opening it, I found some jade and jadeite, in various colors, including jade and jadeite pendants and some small ornaments.

The other box contained medicinal herbs, mostly ginseng, about five or six stalks.

Zhou Yongcheng was clueless about ginseng; he only knew it was ginseng, but didn't know how to identify it.

“With these things, I will buy everything I can. Shouldn’t you arrange a place for me to stay? It’s not convenient for me to stay here all the time, and I also need to do business with a friend I met here.”

"Don't worry, your accommodation has been arranged. It's not far away. I'll take care of everything for you here, so you won't have to worry about anything."

The old man still had state affairs to attend to, so he asked someone to take Zhou Yongcheng to see the accommodations arranged for him. He was told that if Zhou needed anything, he should just ask and someone would arrange it for him.
