Dao of Coins: My Path to Enlightenment in Antique Appraisal

Reborn in 1983, Lin Chen finds himself in a destitute family with no way forward. He unexpectedly awakens a two-way time-space gate, allowing him to freely travel between the 1980s and modern times. With his past life's experience in antique appraisal, Taoist inner alchemy, and Buddhist meditation, he can discern the truth at a glance and sense the spirit within. What others see as scrap metal, he sees as millennia-old fortune and priceless national treasures. In the 80s, he collects scrap, visits markets, and explores ghost markets, picking up ancient coins that no one recognizes: Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng, the Five Emperors' coins, rare mother coins, and treasury coins. Others sell them by weight, but he buys them by their fortune. He brings modern goods to the 80s and ancient treasures to the present, selling high. He uses ancient coins to cultivate his spirit, Taoist breathing to strengthen his body, and Buddhist merits to protect himself. He avoids disasters, breaks curses, authenticates antiques, fights fakes, and defeats the national treasure gang. From a street vendor to a collection magnate to a hidden master, he amasses wealth, achieves supreme cultivation, protects his family, and preserves cultural heritage. In this life, wielding two eras, he seeks not only wealth but also enlightenment through coins, mastering his destiny.
