We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?

After getting a driver, Luo Nianzhong's first stop was Dongfeng Market.

Most people may have never heard of Dongfeng Market, but its predecessor, Dong'an Market, should be known to people in the capital.

In 1966, due to some special circumstances, Dong'an Market was renamed Dongfeng Market, and it was not changed back to its original name until 1988.

Speaking of the oldest department stores in the capital, Dong'an Market ranks first. The original site was the Pingxi Palace of Wu Sangui of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. In 1903, Cixi approved the opening of the ruined land for traders to operate, and the Dong'an Market was born.

When Luo Nianzhong said this name, Zhao Guangrong, who was responsible for driving him, was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that this Hong Kong businessman did not go to places such as the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, but chose Dongfeng Market.

Let’s not talk about the place we went to. How did we know about it?

How could he know that Luo Nianzhong had been to the scenic spots and historic sites he was thinking of so many times? If he had time, it would be nice to take a tour of the old capital city and experience the customs and customs that he had never been exposed to before.

Strolling through the unique market, driver Zhao Guangrong was walking one step behind. The first thing that catches your eye upon entering is the various snacks.

Pastries, meats, seafood, fruits and preserves are all dazzling.

Luo Nianzhong wasn't very interested in these, but he didn't mind tasting them. It didn't take long for him and Zhao Guangrong to have their hands filled with all kinds of food. They looked like rich landlords compared with the people around them, attracting countless gazes.

"Eat more, I'll just give it a try. If you don't eat it, I'll throw it all away."

Hearing what Luo Nianzhong said, Zhao Guangrong, who was already full of food, started eating more.

This guy refused to eat anything at first, but Luo Nianzhong asked, "Didn't I tell you to obey me in everything? If you don't eat, I will throw it away."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Guangrong started to speak.

Continuing to walk inside, slowly, various old-fashioned furniture and small electrical appliance shops appeared in his sight, but most of them were second-hand.

The flow of people here is not as large as outside, it can even be said to be sparse. When passing by an old furniture store, Luo Nianzhong stopped.

The store is not very big, with various furniture, wardrobes, tables, chairs, bookshelves, etc. pushed outside the door. Most are elm, with only a few pine. It didn't matter. What really attracted Luo Nianzhong was a set of huanghuali sofa covers.

A rectangular main sofa with four armchairs on both sides. The backs of the chairs are beautifully carved with dragons and phoenixes. What satisfied Luo Nianzhong the most was its coffee table, which had no sense of splicing and was completely natural.

How did Luo Nianzhong know this knowledge? His knowledge in this area was entirely due to watching such videos and was shocked by the sky-high prices in them.

Thinking of the old furniture in my hometown, I did some research in this area. Unfortunately, his happiness in the rest of his life was not realized by those old furniture.

Touching the unique lines of huanghuali on the back of the chair, he could smell a kind of fall fragrance from time to time. He didn't understand how something of this grade could appear here.

"Boss, your set of tables and chairs is pretty good. How did you sell it?"

Perhaps because he saw that Luo Nianzhong was not dressed like ordinary people, the boss was also very polite, "I'm not a boss, just call me Comrade or Hao Laoliu."

"As for this set of furniture, sir, you are really discerning. This is the finest Hainan huanghuali. It has a history of nearly a hundred years. It was secretly built by a wealthy family at that time."

After speaking, he pointed to the patterns on the tables and chairs, "Did you see this dragon and phoenix in auspicious form? This was taboo in the past."

"Comrade, you said this is a taboo, who dares to build such furniture? Are you lying to me?" Luo Nianzhong wondered if this guy was trying to make fun of himself.

"Did I lie to you? Do I need to lie to you? This is something that was consigned to me and belonged to a wealthy family in the past."

Luo Nian suddenly realized this. No wonder such furniture appears here. It turns out that these are the ones that have not been taken away.

Now that the wind has turned, they dare to take these out secretly, exchange them for some money, and solve their stomach problems. There is a lot to say here, so I won’t go into details.

Touching the huanghuali tabletop, Luo Nianzhong asked, "Is this one piece?"

"How is it possible? This table is more than one meter wide. There is no material with such a large diameter. It is made of two pieces of material."

Seeing that the other party did not deceive him, Luo Nianzhong nodded, "Okay, let's negotiate a price."

Hao Laoliu took out two fingers and said slowly, "Two thousand, no price."

"Can". Luo Nianzhong readily agreed. While talking, he took out his wallet and prepared to pay. As soon as he opened the wallet, something embarrassing happened. He found that he didn't have enough money.

He actually exchanged a thousand yuan just to buy something for convenience, but he suddenly fell in love with furniture.

"That. Can you keep it for me first, and I can buy it later?"

Upon hearing this, Hao Laoliu stopped, "Why are you teasing me about my feelings?"

"No, comrade, I only have US dollars and Hong Kong dollars here. I will come over and buy this set of furniture when I change the money." After speaking, he showed it to Hao Laoliu.

But Hao Laoliu's eyes bulged out, and he saw stacks of U.S. dollars and Hong Kong dollars in Luo Nianzhong's wallet. He had never seen such a formation before, and he quickly swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva.

"Well, sir. U.S. dollars are also available, and they're cheaper. They only cost 1000 U.S. dollars." When he said this, Hao Laoliu's eyes lit up.

According to him, it is indeed cheaper for Luo Nianzhong to pay in US dollars. The current exchange rate is 1.49, which is equivalent to Luo Nianzhong only paying 1490 yuan.

However, he knew that on the black market, Hao Laoliu would be the least likely to double his money, but this had nothing to do with him.

He readily took out 1000 US dollars and paid it to Hao Laoliu, but a new problem arose again. How to pull it back and where to put it are another question. Fortunately, Zhao Guangrong helped him this time and solved all the rest.

When he went back in the evening, Huo Daheng came to Luo Nianzhong's room. He asked Luo Nianzhong to come over for dinner.

On the way to dinner, Huo Daheng asked, "I heard that you went out in the afternoon? You also bought a set of Huanghuali furniture?"

It seems that the people above revealed this to Huo Daheng after they found out.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"That's not true. I just talked about it while chatting. If you are interested in these, there are many good products here, but the price may be higher."

I understand, I want to earn foreign exchange from Luo Nianzhong. Luo Nianzhong waved his hand, "Forget it, this is enough for me."

It's not that he doesn't want to help the motherland, but he doesn't want to take advantage. Besides, how much can these things be sold for?

Compared with the porcelain, most of these old-fashioned furniture were later lost to the Chinese, and Luo Nianzhong did not want to rob them of this opportunity.

Even this set of furniture today was bought on impulse, and he regretted it after selling it. With his current status, he couldn't fix any furniture just by saying hello.

Besides, it’s useless for him to buy a bunch of these furniture. It’s impossible to sell them. Should they be kept in a warehouse to eat dust or be a whole furniture museum? He bought this set mostly to make up for the regrets of his previous life.

Seeing what Luo Nianzhong said, Huo Daheng stopped continuing the topic and chatted with him about the details of tomorrow's itinerary. The two came to the banquet hall prepared for them.

The two of them were the last to arrive. At this time, all the dishes on the table were as mentioned above, and several bottles of Maotai and Fenjiu were also placed. They were accompanied by the leader who picked up the plane today.

There were no unnecessary topics to discuss at the wine table, just eat and drink well.

What surprised Luo Nianzhong was that the leader frequently toasted to him and introduced some of the mountains and rivers of the motherland, the folk customs of various places, etc.

Luo Nianzhong could only agree with him, and sometimes even showed a yearning expression.

To be honest, this is Mingchuan Mountain. Luo Nianzhong has basically been there, but he still has to pretend that he doesn't know much about it. Many times, Luo Nianzhong almost followed his words and mentioned some buildings that did not exist yet, and he was so frustrated.

What can he do? Should I tell him, "I know Zhangjiajie and have been to Tianmen Mountain. In the future, famous glass bridges and glass plank roads will be built there."

The meal ended with everyone happy, and Luo Nianzhong was happy on the outside but almost holding back internal injuries on the inside.
