Name: The Great Northern Wilderness: I’m Reborn, So Why Would I Return to the City?
Author: Professor Big

Synopsis

[Period] [Rags to Riches] [One Female Lead] [Greater Khingan Range] [Hunting]

When he was young, surgical academician Su Huaian pursued Qin Ling, a sent-down youth, with all his might. He even became a live-in son-in-law and followed her to the city, only to end up as the man who raised another man's child.

He worked himself to the bone, and when Qin Ling returned to the city, she took all the household supplies with her. Then a heavy snowfall sealed off the mountains. His father, who had a bad leg, could only go into the mountains to hunt, but never came back. His mother cried herself blind, his younger brother was given away, and his younger sister couldn't afford treatment for her congenital heart disease.

Heaven gave Su Huaian another chance: he was reborn in 1979. When Qin Ling once again asked him to return to the city, he decisively refused.

In this life, he would give his younger siblings a better life. He started by hunting in the mountains and buying medicinal herbs, then opened a pharmaceutical factory and built the world's strongest medical company. From barefoot doctor at the village clinic to the city hospital, then the provincial hospital's leading surgeon, and finally a national surgical academician, Su Huaian went further and further.

Before he knew it, Su Huaian had built the world's most powerful medical empire.

How Can I Search All of Tomato and Not Find a Single Period-Era Novel from a Man's Perspective Where He Doesn't Go to the Countryside???

No going to the countryside, no going to the countryside, no going to the countryside. I'm saying it three times because it's important!!! Working in the city is great. Otherwise, so many people wouldn't refuse to go to the countryside and do hard labor. Preferably no CP. The male lead can have male and female friends, but not in the main story...

Looking for books similar to "I Transmigrated into a Book Set in the 1970s and Found the Toughest Guy in the Village". The male lead should be a rough, tough village guy or something like that. No having multiple children, and please don't make him a soldier in a military marriage plot. There are way too many of those, and they're not very original.
