Traveling Back and Forth to 1978 with Supplies

1978, on the eve of reform and opening up.

Some remarkable new goods suddenly appeared in Yuzhou City in the southwest.

The mysterious shopkeeper accepted only gold, not ration coupons or large-denomination bills.

But he could get his hands on anything you wanted.

By the end of 1978, reform and opening up had begun, and doing business was no longer taboo.

At last, everyone got to see the mysterious shopkeeper's true face.

He wasn't the middle-aged man returned from overseas, showing off his foreign phrases, as they had imagined.

He was actually a handsome young man.

After reform and opening up, the country developed at a dizzying pace.

As ordinary people rode the tide of the times, they began to wonder if things were changing a little too quickly.

While other countries were still using pagers, they had cell phones. A couple of years later, even lighter mobile phones appeared.

A few years earlier, they were still watching black-and-white televisions, while color television had only just begun overseas. How had they somehow ended up with LCD TVs?

Air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines... They worked even better than imports.

And satellites, one after another, were launched into the sky.

It wasn't until the news of a crewed spaceflight was broadcast for all to hear that they truly felt the world had changed.

At the Academy of Sciences, a white-haired old man stared at the stack of research materials that had suddenly appeared in front of him and fell into thought yet again.

Who, exactly, was helping Huaxia?

A deity? No. Only the people of Huaxia would help Huaxia.

At first, Ji Qiuman only wanted to make a little money trading goods between two worlds.

As a young person living in the twenty-first century, he couldn't help wanting to do something after seeing how far behind things were in the seventies and eighties.

Even in a parallel world, Huaxia couldn't lag behind any other country.

Then I'll leave it to you, System.

The System returned after delivering the materials. "Host, have you forgotten that we're called the Myriad Realms Trading System?"

Ji Qiuman: "It's fine. No big deal. Watch this. How about I bring over a few new energy vehicles?"

System: "Host, don't you think the handsome guy next door has started to get suspicious of you?"

"No way. He's just an ordinary man who's been sent down to do hard labor."
