About This Novel

From 2010 to 2025, "Qingshiban Alley", an old urban area of a second-tier city in southern China, was a forgotten corner of the city, with low bungalows, crowded courtyards, and damp alleys, inhabited by traffickers, laid-off workers, unemployed vagrants, and migrant workers. There is no glamorous career or a luxurious life in the alley. There is only the exhaustion of running for three meals a day, the trivial quarrels over firewood, rice, oil and salt, and the reality of being torn apart for a little benefit. It also hides the simplest warmth and the deepest hatred of the people at the bottom. As the city expands, a demolition payment and a resettlement house have become huge rocks that disturb the tranquility of the entire alley. All love, hate, and resentment have completely erupted in this game of survival and profit.
