The train journey is particularly tiring, taking about 60 hours from the southwest to Beijing, which is roughly two and a half days.

Everyone boarded the train full of energy and laughter at first. But a few people in the back started looking dejected.

As they approached the Beijing area, people around them began to get restless.

Shuanzi and Shengzi, in particular, both started unpacking the clothes and luggage they had brought.

"Should we change our clothes when we get to Beijing? I feel like we're dressed too ruralally like this."

Shuanzi was still wearing ripped clothes and simple, baggy blue pants.

On the train, I noticed that many people were actually dressed quite well.

Chen Yifei shook his head: "There's no need for that."

"Isn't comfort the most important thing? But Katsuko, you really need to be more presentable. Your clothes are all rubbed raw, exposing most of your skin."

"Let's change into something else."

"I'm not changing it."

Tiger looked at him with disdain: "Brother Fei, you were dressed in a suit and tie when you went to see your father-in-law, but now that you're in Beijing, you don't care about your image at all?"

Zhao Zhao was the only one here with a good appearance. He smiled and said, "It's alright, Boss Chen has class."

“I value inner beauty,” Chen Yifei said with a deep voice. “Once you have inner beauty, you don’t have to worry about anything else.”

"On the surface, he doesn't care. A handsome person doesn't need these kinds of support."

"..." Tiger was speechless. Fei Ge could be quite narcissistic at times.

But she is indeed good-looking.

Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk about it.

Everyone quickly tidied themselves up and got off the bus.

It was very crowded when I got off the bus.

It seems like everyone wants to hurry up and send someone down first.

Chen Yifei said, "Let's wait a bit. There's no rush to go down last. It's really uncomfortable being in such a crowded place. We all feel sticky."

"Exactly, what's so crowded about it? Everyone can get down."

Dragging their bags, the young men arrived at this place, and they were all very excited.

This was also Zhao Zhao's first time visiting Beijing.

Unexpectedly, he started his own business so quickly after being expelled from the Party and dismissed from public office.

It's better to follow Chen Yifei's plan and strategy.

He took a deep breath: "Chen Yifei, where are we going now?"

The group stood together, and Chen Yifei said, "Let's find a hotel to stay in first, and then we can think about other things."

Just then, a tricycle with a small felt hat, a "Happiness" brand vehicle, stopped in front of us.

"Gentlemen, where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

"Take us to a hotel."

It's getting a bit dark now; it feels like everything around us is about to go dark.

"Okay, it's all done."

They squeezed onto the three-wheeled vehicle, and the old man riding it said with a smile, "You guys are obviously from out of town, right? It's not easy to find a hotel here."

"If you can't find the way, you'll have to pay extra."

"affim,"

Chen Yifei was very familiar with the prices here and would definitely not be ripped off.

Unfortunately, the old man led them around for quite a while, asking at each hotel, but all the hotels were full, whether they were expensive or cheap.

There's nothing we can do.

"We can't even find a place to stay in this dormitory! Life in Beijing is so tough." Zhao Zhao's forehead was covered in sweat.

Tiger said, "That's right. We've been to Shenzhen and Shanghai too. It's good to have someone take care of you there."

The old man driving the three-wheeled vehicle said, "Do you know anyone here? If it's someone from your workplace, you can go to the guesthouse."

"Hurry up, if you have any, go to a phone booth and call to ask."

Chen Yifei remembered Deng Yitong, whom he had met in Shanghai.

Or should we call and ask?

He remembered the number, and he went to the phone booth and dialed it.

"Hello, please transfer me to Comrade Deng Yitong."

The call was answered shortly afterward.

"I am Chen Yifei. Is Deng Yi in Beijing with you?"

"Ah! I'm here, you've come too." Deng Yitong was clearly pleasantly surprised.

"Do you have a guesthouse? We'd like to stay here for a while."

"Alright, where are you? I'll come pick you up. There really is a guesthouse. Chen Yifei, you've got to ask me for help now! You'll have to treat me to a meal then!"

Deng Yitong still had a sense of awe for Chen Yifei, who was the man who had brought down an entire market in Shanghai!

"Okay, no problem."

"We're here... at the entrance of Panjiayuan, where there are quite a few stalls selling antiques."

Since he was waiting anyway, Chen Yifei gave the money to the uncle of the three-wheeled vehicle and then went to wander around the antique stalls at the entrance.

"Hey, come and see! These antiques are all from the Western Zhou Dynasty. Look, they're all historical artifacts. Buy them now!"

"How much is it?" Chen Yifei asked.

"It's not much, I'll just charge you 80 cents. This cup is a top-quality item from the Western Zhou Dynasty!"

Chen Yifei laughed out loud: "Is it from the Western Zhou Dynasty or last week?"

"I can tell at a glance that this was just delivered last week!"

"Hehe." The old man who ran the stall chuckled, "You've got some sense, kid. You weren't just guessing, were you?"

"Look at this Terracotta Warrior! It's amazing."

"These terracotta warriors are even carrying guns! That's quite a novel design. Back in Qin Shi Huang's time, they already had bullet guns."

"Ha ha!"

The old man laughed and said, "Alright, alright, I'm not playing with you anymore. Go do it yourself."

Chen Yifei said, "Uncle, you look capable. How about opening an antique shop? I'd like to partner with you."

As soon as Chen Yifei arrived, he knew that this old uncle was Malay Du, who later became an antique tycoon!

Now they're setting up a street stall?
