Brief introduction to the story of the red sandalwood king

The year before the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, in order to curry favor with the Japanese, senior Kuomintang people found Chen, the shopkeeper of Xudong, the largest mahogany furniture store in Beijing, and asked him to find a way to build a set of emperor dragon chairs imitating Yongzheng agricultural weaving cabinets, but Chen flatly refused.

Unfortunately, Chen Hanchang, Chen's son, was unexpectedly detained. Under this condition, Wang Zijing forced Xudong to copy the Dragon Chair and Yongzheng Farming and Weaving Pavilion within three months. He also found the second mahogany furniture store "Xiu He Ming" in Beijing as the supervisor. The shopkeeper of "Xiu He Ming" was overjoyed and wanted to take this opportunity to bring down "Xudong".

Chen Hanchang and Xu shopkeeper's daughter Yuzhu met by chance. Chen Hanchang fell in love with the intelligent and versatile Yuzhu. They went to the chicken farm to watch the cockfighting, were followed by their assistant Xing, and arranged for someone to kidnap Yuzhu. Chen Hanchang saved Yuzhu, and they fell in love deeply.

The Dragon Chair and Yongzheng Agricultural Weaving Kitchen were completed as scheduled. He also called the shopkeeper and housekeeper Sun to see the furniture. Because of jealousy, Ma was furious and sent someone to put Chen in prison. He was bent on killing Chen, but Ma didn't agree, but he didn't know that Chen had been killed in prison by someone who had arranged it. Chen Hanchang learned the news of his father's tragic death and wanted to assassinate Ma, but Ma and his guards caught him. Ma Ben wanted to severely punish Chen Hanchang, but with the help of Yan 'an, Chen Hanchang was released.

Chen Hanchang learned that it was the shopkeeper's design that harmed his father. In a rage, he took a petrol can to the storage room of rosewood in Meiming River and burned most of it. In the brightly lit courtyard, Chen Hanchang realized that Yuzhu was actually a "bright" young lady, and their relationship was in trouble.

Xu shopkeeper vomited blood and died. Wang Zijing tried to get rid of Chen Hanchang by killing horses and burning Ming, but his plan failed.

Chen Hanchang finally rallied and took over his father's business under the stimulation of curator Zhu's clearance and all the craftsmen. He invited the drying master to do a big job, but he was "dug" away by the owner's son and Yuzhu's brother Xu Yanfei. In desperation, inexperienced Li Qiusheng took on the heavy responsibility of airing. Xu Yanfei knew it was impossible to bake sandalwood in Li Qiusheng, so Zhang Dali, a swindler, ordered a lot of mahogany furniture from Xu Dong and signed a contract to pay double down payment if it cracked or deformed.

Chen Hanchang has always felt sorry for the burning of "Ming He Ming" and decided to go to the south to find a good ebony to pay off debts for "Ming He Ming". After learning about this, Yanan expected that King Jing would take the opportunity to kill him and secretly accompany and protect Chen Hanchang. If Wang Zijing sent criminal adjutant and others to assassinate Chen Hanchang. Ya Nan saved Chen Hanchang. Chen Hanchang fought bravely with local bandits and bought back a lot of ebony at a low price. Chen Hanchang passed by Nanjing and saw the local ruffians bullying Chu Yun, a famous Beijing opera star. Chen Hanchang saved the scene. Jiang Chuyun fell in love with Chen Hanchang.

When Chen Hanchang returned to Beijing, he learned that Li Qiusheng had filled rosewood with purple elm, and he flew into a rage. He smashed the furniture, reiterated the purpose of honest management and persuaded everyone.

Xu Yanfei deformed the mahogany furniture. A month later, Zhang Dali came to Xudong with deformed and cracked rosewood furniture to claim compensation. "Xudong" was unable to pay back the money for a while and was forced to close down. Yuzhu took out jewelry and deposits and secretly kept "Xudong". Xu Yanfei forced Cai Xiu, the maid, to bring Li Qiusheng, the chief sculptor of Xudong. At the critical moment, Jade and Pearl forced each other, and Caixiu left Ming to marry Li Qiusheng.

Jiang Chu Yun came to Beijing to act. Her arrival made Yuzhu and Yayan deeply uneasy. Xu Yanfei, Wang Zijing and others all harbor malice towards Jiang Chuyun. Jiang Chuyun wanted to devote himself to Chen Hanchang, only to find that even though he was drunk, Chen Hanchang was still thinking about Yuzhu. Because he was drunk, he didn't come back that night and was told by Sexiu. Yuzhu was jealous and asked Xu Yanfei to design furniture for Ming. The furniture designed by Yuzhu is really popular with customers, which once put "Xudong" in a desperate situation.

Chen Hanchang and Wang Qiusheng changed the furniture style through research, and "Xudong" came back to life. It is suggested that Chen Hanchang marry Yun to get rid of Yuzhu. Caixiu told the news to Yuzhu, who was seriously ill. In order to get back at Chen Hanchang, she tricked Yun into taking "sweat medicine" for her at the hotel, so Jiang Chuyun lost his virginity. Xu Yanfei discovered that Jiang Chuyun was pure and decided to marry Chu Jiangyun. Jiang Chuyun knows that Xu Yanfei's sister is Chen Hanchang's beloved. She told her Chen Hanchang's love for Yuzhu, and Yuzhu burst into tears.

After the July 7th Incident, Wang Zijing worked for the Japanese and wanted to send all the mahogany craftsmen in Peiping to Japan. Facing the constant pestering and cowardice of others, Yun was disheartened, and there was no news after leaving.

Desperate Wang Zijing kidnapped Yuzhu and threatened to exchange it for a dragon chair and a farming cabinet. Yuzhu gave his life for Chen Hanchang not to be held hostage. Chen Hanchang, who loves Yuzhu deeply, is heartbroken and resolutely chooses to marry Yuzhu.

Jiang Chuyun's departure and Yuzhu's death shocked Xu Yanfei, and his spirit completely collapsed. He was crazy.

Desperate Wang Zijing finally stood in front of the dragon chair and the agricultural weaving cabinet. When he opened the cabinet of the Ministry of Agriculture and Weaving, he found that the cabinet was full of explosives, and Liu Duichang was killed in the raging fire. Wang Zijing who escaped was killed by Chen Hanchang who arrived.

Chen Hanchang and Yanan embarked on the road of resisting Japan and saving the country.

In the 1990s, Chen Hanchang and Ma Yanan, who are already white-haired, are still contributing to the mahogany culture.
