Starting in '52: Ruling the Turbulent Times

When Li Changsheng woke up, he found himself in a Beijing courtyard house in 1952, having become a hapless apprentice who was dirt poor and had just been fired from a restaurant. The family’s rice jar was nearly empty, his little sister had nothing to eat, and yet Jia Zhangshi and Yi Zhonghai were trying to trick him out of the house his parents had left him for “fifty yuan”... In this courtyard full of schemes and oppression, he refuses to be a pushover who only stands up to his own family! Just when all seems hopeless, the [Fishing the Myriad Heavens System] appears! From a Taiji boxing manual to god-tier culinary skills, from a rare braised-meat recipe to top-notch carpentry skills, Li Changsheng becomes a god with “one cast” and starts turning his life around! His pride? He’ll throw it away! His methods? He’ll make sure you regret it for the rest of your life! Jia Zhangshi schemes to take his house? He makes her lose face in front of everyone and walk away with nothing but trouble! Yi Zhonghai uses “filial piety” to pressure him into giving away his hard-earned money? The Taiji boxing awarded by the System sends the old man sprawling, and from then on he gets on his knees and calls Li Changsheng “Brother Changsheng”! Qin Huairu puts on an innocent act to take advantage of him? He makes a fortune selling braised meat and deliberately makes her jealous. She won’t get a single cent from him! And then there are clowns like Jia Dongxu and Yan Bugui. He makes every last one of them howl for their mothers until even the rats in the courtyard can’t stand them! From selling braised meat at a street stall to opening a restaurant, from face-slapping the courtyard’s scoundrels to making a name for himself in the capital, Li Changsheng carves out a path to success with the System! “In this world, it’s enough if I don’t bully anyone. You think you can bully me? Dream on!”
