In the late autumn of 1960, Cao Yuan graduated from Yenching University and returned to Courtyard No. 95 on Nanluogu Lane.

He had barely inherited his great-uncle's three large tiled-roof rooms when the whole courtyard's vermin set their sights on him.

But nobody could have guessed that Cao Yuan was bound to a Hundredfold Backlash System.

Anyone who plotted against him would suffer a hundred times over, and all their losses would go to Cao Yuan.

Yan Bugui tried to seize his home. That very night, his family's savings vanished, while Cao Yuan gained three hundred jin of fine flour for free...

Silly Zhu tried to lay hands on him, but cracked his head on the spot, while Cao Yuan's physique improved dramatically.

Yi Zhonghai smeared him at work, and the next day lost all his honors and connections.

Jia Zhangshi spread rumors, and her whole family ran out of food, lost their ration coupons, and made mistakes at work.

Cao Yuan turned every scheme against him into a backlash, rising step by step from a clerk in the Labor Relations Department to receiving public commendation from the factory committee, with the deputy factory manager personally promoting him.

His high-ranking fiancée came to call, her connections in the ministries and commissions giving his official career a major boost.

The more these courtyard vermin schemed against Cao Yuan, the stronger he became.

Until one day, the whole courtyard realized: anyone is fair game, but never mess with Cao Yuan. Plot against him, and you're just giving him rewards!
