Siheyuan: The Butcher Who Restores Lifespans Takes on the Vermin

On his very first day in the courtyard, he kicked Jia Dongxu to the ground and dealt with Jia Zhangshi while he was at it. A butcher at a slaughterhouse, he takes on the whole courtyard's beasts with nothing but brute strength. But no matter how strong he is, it can't make up for a short life. He accidentally discovers that he has only two years left to live, and extending his lifespan means slaughtering livestock to accumulate fortune.

The red fortune he harvests from wild boars can hammer his "iron kidneys" into gold and temper his butcher's knife into black iron. But how can a little fortune like that make up for what he's lost? The animals raised in the courtyard are all bloodsuckers, each worse than the last. Yi Zhonghai wants to use morality to manipulate people, Qin Huairu's alluring eyes are always sizing up honest men, and Jia Zhangshi's tongue is sharper than a butcher's knife.

At the slaughterhouse, every animal he handles each day represents a life. Anyone looking to take advantage, trip him up, or smear his name is in range of his sharpening blade. There's no need to fall out with them yet. First, he'll just keep slaughtering pigs and building up his fortune. Once he's made up for the years he lost, he'll settle every score with the schemers in the courtyard, one by one, with interest.
