Siheyuan: Starting in the Procurement Department as an Intern

A feel-good story about building a career and outsmarting all the schemers of the era.

After transmigrating to 1960, Lin Jianguo becomes an orphan living in a Beijing courtyard house on Nanluoguxiang. His identity from the start: a trainee purchasing agent at the Red Star Steel Mill.

In an era when ration coupons rule, a purchasing agent is a walking supply depot, and a tempting target in the eyes of all the schemers.

Faced with Qin Huairu's moral blackmail, Silly Zhu's cafeteria bullying, and the First Master's hypocritical schemes, Lin Jianguo chooses to fight back all the way!

He activates his golden finger, the Eye of Analysis, which reveals anyone's or anything's flaws and value at a glance!

A coworker sets a trap? I'll turn it against him and make sure he loses more than he bargained for, then send him packing in disgrace!

A chance to score useful supplies? The damp coal that others see as junk is a treasure to me, perfect for smelting specialty steel. One business trip, and I leave the whole factory stunned!

From trainee purchasing agent to the factory's technical linchpin, then to a national-level strategist, Lin Jianguo rises step by step with his forward-looking vision and decisive methods, taking on the courtyard's schemers and riding the waves of the times!
