Siheyuan: After Solving the Rat Problem, I Rise to the Top

Feel-good story, no saintly protagonist, with a career-focused plot

In the winter of 1955, Lin Fan transmigrates into a Beijing courtyard, becoming a warehouse apprentice whose parents are both dead and who is starving and sick. Jia Zhangshi comes to mooch off him, Yi Zhonghai takes the other side, and Qin Huairu schemes behind his back. Everyone in the courtyard thinks he's an easy target.

In the depths of despair, the System of Affinity with All Things awakens! The steel mill is overrun with rats, and the managers are helpless?

Lin Fan vows to solve the problem. In one night, he commands all the rats to disperse, astonishing the entire factory! Deputy Director Li is overjoyed: "A talent! You're my lucky star!" Lin Fan is promoted on the spot and rises to the top in one leap!

Silly Zhu still wants to throw a punch? Birds and beasts are all my eyes and ears, so you'll be having a run of bad luck the moment you step outside! The courtyard busybodies still want to scheme against me? The rare flowers and plants I grow can save lives, or quietly ruin someone!

In this era of scarce supplies, while the courtyard busybodies are still scheming over every last stitch and thread, Lin Fan has already quietly climbed to the pinnacle of the age, thanks to his ability to communicate with plants and animals!
