Mo Chaoyang was sold off by his mother when he was little.
When he was ten, his adoptive father was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer, and his adoptive mother left him behind.
He was fortunate enough to be taken in by his adoptive father's friend, but he still failed to graduate from high school.
At eighteen, he tried to find work, only to be rejected because he was a hepatitis B carrier.
With no job in sight, he had to make his own way.
If one day I fulfill my lofty ambitions, I'll dare laugh at Huang Chao for not being a true man!
Well, the author captured some of my own fantasies as a rural person. The protagonist's personality is cautious, sensitive, and insecure. The inner monologues are exceptionally well-portrayed, realistically reflecting the psychology of such a character. Emotionally, I feel a preference for the aunt, and I suspect there will be more female characters later on, possibly all of whom will be "harvested."
I like this style of multi-dimensional description; there are many such things in rural areas.
The characters are vivid, making it a worthwhile read; it fully depicts the helplessness of those at the bottom of society. It's a story of a rural hero's rise to power. I think the character development is quite good; the protagonist seems to be a cautious and meticulous person, a bit insecure, and probably has many hidden plans. There are many female leads, which seems to fit some of the gossip-filled phenomena that people in rural areas enjoy talking about.
Very good, I love rural women, they're so charming.
