Outsider Wife, Local Husband: Financial Tycoon Kang Qining

This has little to do with the original plot, so don't read too much into it.

The soul of a modern financial tycoon transmigrates back to a traditional Xiguan mansion and becomes Kang Qining, the Kang family's "missing fifth son." Thus begins a wild financial fantasy infused with the lively spirit of Cantonese life!

A born scholar, Kang Qining grows up in the Kang family with a forward-thinking business mindset. He turns financial concepts like stocks, leverage, and crowdfunding into elaborate pranks on his older brothers. He uses marbles to trick them into playing the stock market with toys, turns the chicken coop into "real estate" and sells them shares, and even invents an "education fund," trading homework help for marbles. He leaves the whole family in chaos, yet always finds a clever way to shift the blame after causing trouble, leaving his brothers to clean up the mess in exasperation.

While preserving the classic storylines of My Own Swordsman, Kang Qining brings a fresh spark to the tale. When the Kang family faces cultural clashes over marrying women from outside the community, he becomes a skilled mediator. When family property disputes erupt, he uses financial strategies to resolve them. Even the neighbors' everyday bickering turns into a community business opportunity thanks to the "mutual aid fund" he devises. He can use modern marketing to save his second brother's teahouse when it's on the verge of closing, and draw on his professional knowledge to help the Kang family weather a financial crisis.
