Synopsis

The protagonist wakes up one morning to discover that prices in this world have fallen by a factor of ten thousand.

A jianbing that used to cost eight yuan and fifty now costs just eight fen and five li.

A house that used to cost several million now costs just a few hundred yuan.

A car that used to cost hundreds of thousands now costs just a few dozen yuan.

The prices of everything have fallen, but the protagonist's savings of over ninety thousand yuan have not. He also discovers that his company still pays him a salary of three thousand yuan, which is equivalent to thirty million yuan in the old prices…
