Sudden Wealth, Starting from 1984's Purchases

Gu Wei accidentally gains the ability to freely travel between two timelines.

Thus, the path to sudden wealth begins with purchases from 1984.

Chapter Forty-Nine: Better to be early than late

Although I can't sell it to Lao Guo for money recently, it's still a pleasure to buy it and keep it at home to play with when I have nothing to do.

Jin Hongda suggested, "Brother Gu, it's better to go sooner rather than later. Why don't we go now?"

Gu Wei glanced at the time; it was just past seven o'clock.

Summer days are long, and it's still bright and sunny outside.

"Alright."

After the two left their house and rode their bicycles for a while, they unexpectedly encountered Li Bin, who was also riding a bicycle.

"Brother Gu, are you going out on business?" Li Bin glanced at the unfamiliar man next to Gu Wei, his heart pounding.

"Yes." Gu Wei didn't notice the strange look in Li Bin's eyes; his attention was more focused on the manila envelope in Li Bin's hand. "Is there any progress on that matter?"

"Yes, Brother Gu."

Li Bin refrained from speaking out of turn, mindful of the presence of others.

Gu Wei told Jin Hongda to wait a moment, then called Li Bin to talk under a tree nearby.

"Tell me, what's the situation now?"

Li Bin handed the file bag to Gu Wei, saying, "All the necessary materials and supplies are inside. Now all we need is your photo, Brother Gu."

"I have the photos ready."

"That's great!"

Gu Wei had the printed one-inch photos in his bag, but he didn't take them out right away. Instead, he opened the file folder and carefully looked through the contents one by one.

How long does it take to process?

"I estimate that if I submit the materials tomorrow, it should be ready in two or three days."

With the task assigned by the God of Wealth nearing completion, Li Bin breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Wei was very satisfied with Li Bin's work performance.

He originally thought that business licenses would be difficult to obtain at this time, and even if he found someone, it would take ten days to half a month to get one.

The two chatted for a while longer.

Leave the area under the tree.

Gu Wei introduced the two of them.

Only when he learned that this man was the third son-in-law of the Zhao family did Li Bin's alarm subside.

He had previously thought that the God of Wealth had gained more people to run errands for him, and suddenly he felt a sense of crisis.

The three traveled together for a while, then parted ways at a fork in the road.

Li Bin never asked the two where they were going.

Gu Wei didn't say anything.

In those days, if you had old items like calligraphy, paintings, and porcelain at home, you could only sell them to antique shops.

This is the only channel; selling it elsewhere would be considered speculation and profiteering.

But rules are rules, people are flexible, and many transactions are still conducted secretly in private.
