About This Novel
Xie Wen, director of the 21st Century Workshop, was reborn in northern Shanxi in 1986 - several acres of thin land at home were expropriated by coal mines, and only then did he get what others saw as an "iron rice bowl": a mine security guard. He seemed to be taken care of and well paid, but within a few days of taking up the job, he ran into big trouble: three tons of clean coal were stolen at night, and the blame was placed directly on his head. When the suspension notice was slapped on the table, he didn't even have room for excuses. Others laughed at him for "making a living by occupying land", but he sneered: Following the clues, he uncovered the real culprit who stole the coal, and even the mine manager looked at him differently; From being a marginalized security guard to contracting mine logistics, leading villagers to collect mountain goods for export; With the help of reform and opening up, cinders can be turned into real gold and silver. When the barren mountain village turned into a prosperous place where trucks shuttled, Xie Wen held a cigarette in his mouth and had no emotions in his heart: In this life, if you don't become a powerful coal boss, wouldn't you be too sorry for the luck of rebirth?
