King of the Wasteland in the Apocalypse: I'm Just a Scrap Collector

Wu Ming, a wage slave from the old world, was reborn in the new world more than a hundred years after a planetary catastrophe.

Culture, knowledge, resources, and the environment had all changed, but humanity endured.

Raised in a junkyard, Wu Ming used his knowledge of the old world to become the new world's king of scrap*.

While others drank nutrient solution to survive, he cooked braised beef.

While others had only books, writing, and painting for entertainment, he stayed home playing on a handheld console.

While others toiled through missions for a few thousand a month, he had long since amassed a ten-digit fortune collecting scrap*.

Lighters, bicycles, flashlights, Walkmans, and all kinds of other junk from the old world became treasures in his hands, taking the new world by storm.

When mutant creatures attacked, he saved the day with a Gatling gun.

When famine struck, he grew vast fields of potatoes.

He collects scrap, sells arms, works as a scholar, and cooks. Just who is he?

Wu Ming smiled and said, "I'm just a scrap collector."
