* A ''Manhua/OldMasterQ'' story attempts this, when Master Q invents a time machine that transports him, Big Potato and Chin to the Ming Dynasty. Realizing their present-day money - mostly 5-cent and 10-cent coins - are mistaken as extremely valuable treasures by ancient jewelers, the trio decide to exchange their coins with Ming-era potteries and sell them in the present as antiques. Alas, it doesn't work - when Master Q brings an ancient Ming vase to their on-off friend, Mr. Chiu who's an antiques dealer, Chiu mistakes the vase for a fake because [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome it's brand-new]].
