Books That Teach You Strange Things
I’m looking for something similar to The Chinese Guide to Scams: Complete Collection. It introduces all kinds of ways people get cheated, from human trafficking and cardsharps to fortune-telling, so you can avoid being fooled after reading it!
Stories About Underworld Bosses
Looking for books similar to *Yao Ruan*. Any stories where the male lead is a powerful underworld boss, and definitely not a good guy, while the female lead is basically his mistress?
Gangsters, a System, and a Life of Crime That Pays: Anyone Who Crosses Them Gets Taken Down
The kind where a crime boss is eating at a barbecue stall, and some clueless idiot comes over to provoke him. The boss doesn’t even turn his head, grabs the guy by the neck with one hand, and slams him into the ground hard enough to crack the floor.

Fanfic where the protagonist joins the Japanese underworld and later returns to China. They’ll do whatever it takes to protect the people around them, but aren’t brainless or self-righteous.
Underworld Stories
Any crime-world stories where the protagonist rises straight to the top? Quick transmigration is fine too, as long as there's a criminal underworld.
Underworld Gangsters and Jianghu
I’m looking for a gritty underworld martial-arts world, but not a brainless one. I want something ruthless, not a wish-fulfillment story, and around five million characters long. Thanks!

It's quite good-looking, the author's writing is good, and the narrative description is very detailed and vivid, making you immersed in the situation. The ending of the story is very sad, which makes people lament how hard it is for people living at the bottom of society to struggle.
The plot of this book is really heart-wrenching! The protagonist's rough fate, especially the story between him and Yang Bo, reminded me of Sun Shaoan and He Xiulian in "The Ordinary World". But I hate the protagonist even more, his violent behavior is very infuriating. In contrast, Sun Shaoan is more responsible and has changed his life through his own efforts. This book also made me think about how people should choose when faced with a difficult situation. Should they use violence to solve problems like the protagonist, or should they be down-to-earth like Sun Shaoan?
You can't understand what a group of people did in that era. If you want to know more about it, you can take a look. The youngest person in that group is over 60 years old.
Why is it that the later part is similar to Dao Ke Dao's "The Underworld"? It's a book that I can read if I give it five stars, but I only need to read one of the two books "The Underworld".
Great book! Worth a look!
Very realistic, without too many routines, not a cool novel
Nice looking, with historical background.
Alas, such a book should not be buried
The article is written in a relaxed and elegant way, from the savagery of the gangsters to the description of human nature.
Yes, it writes about the past in Laocangkou Street, Qingdao.
