Siheyuan: Building a Powerful Nation by Taking Advantage of Every Opportunity

Chen Tao transmigrated bodily into a courtyard house in the 1960s. His parents had died during a rescue operation.

Instead of sympathizing, the courtyard's scheming neighbors kicked him while he was down!

Yi Zhonghai: "Chen Tao, your First Uncle wants to take you in as his adopted son and teach you to respect your elders and care for the young..."

Liu Haizhong: "Chen Tao, you're an engineer now. How about recommending your Second Uncle for a position as a section chief..."

Yan Bugui: "Chen Tao, you can't eat your way into poverty, and you can't dress your way into it either..."

Jia Zhangshi: "Old Jia! Dongxu! Chen Tao won't trade houses with us! Come up here and help me..."

Luckily, he awakened an Emotion Collection System. Collect emotions, and he could grow stronger!

With the System in hand, Chen Tao turned the tables and started squeezing every last benefit out of his scheming neighbors, growing stronger and stronger!

Daily life was just the seasoning. Strengthening the nation was what mattered!

Longguo's manufacturing industry is weak?

How about learning a thing or two from a mechanical genius?

He built a CNC machine by hand and drove technological innovation!

The country lacks advanced weapons?

Then he'd build them!

When batch after batch of J-20s, laser cannons, and Type 055 destroyers appeared on the international stage,

The Americans were stunned...

You call this a developing country?
