Siheyuan: From the Start, I Talk Back to the Troublemakers, and Their Resentment Turns into Money

Transmigrate into the courtyard, clap back at people, and get rich with the System. Every moment is satisfying!

In the bitter winter of 1962, I became Silly Zhu, the laughingstock of the neighborhood.

But this time, I have a Grudge-to-Cash System. As long as I make the bloodsuckers in the courtyard furious enough to break down, I can harvest Grudge Points and exchange them for the most precious winter goods: meat, cooking oil, and fabric coupons, plus watch and bicycle coupons...

- Qin Huairu shows up with her battered lunchbox, hoping for a free meal? I retort until she cries, and casually nab ten jin of pork belly!

- Xu Damao gets rowdy after drinking? I kick him into a snowbank. His Grudge Points shoot up by 500, and the factory director's position is practically mine!

- The Third Uncle puts on airs despite being all talk? I'll make him call me Grandpa to my face!

In this era of scarce food and clothing, I won't just be the toughest man in the courtyard. I'll also become the youngest leader at the steel mill, and, while I'm at it, win the beautiful and kind Lou Xiao'e!
