Siheyuan: Showing Off My Wealth Makes Me Stronger, and the Whole Courtyard Is Jealous

Ye Tian transmigrates to a 1960s courtyard where the animals dwell, only to learn that his predecessor was so kindhearted he gave all his food to the greedy neighbors and ended up dead.

Furious, he activates the Show-Off System. The more he flaunts his wealth, the stronger he becomes.

While the neighbors eat cornmeal buns and Chinese cabbage, he feasts on steamed white-flour buns, chicken, duck, fish, and gourmet delicacies, their mouthwatering aroma driving his greedy neighbors wild.

While the neighbors compete over who has new clothes, a radio, or a bicycle, he shows up with a car and gets himself a refrigerator, water heater, color TV, air conditioner, and washing machine.

When an earthquake forces the neighbors to live in makeshift shelters, he buys up land and builds apartments with elevators, swimming pools, and maids. Even his pets get a two-bedroom apartment.

The neighbors report him as a spy, but Ye Tian turns around and sends them all to prison!

Why can he do that? Because he developed a semiconductor computer, giving the country nuclear weapons four years ahead of schedule!

Because he developed pagers and cell phones, earned the country a year's worth of grain in a single year, and paid the national agricultural taxes for everyone!

Thanks to him, Dragon Nation is on the verge of overtaking the great powers!

The state has granted him special permission to get rich first!
