Name: Siheyuan: Reborn in the Sixties with an AI System
Author: Cheng Ze by the West Lake

Synopsis

Programmer Qian Duoduo unexpectedly transmigrates to 1960 and becomes Zhao Qitong, an 18-year-old university student living in a Beijing courtyard house. Rebirthed with an AI System, he decides to make the most of this extraordinary era, using modern technology and a forward-looking vision to build a happy life for himself, while finding success, love, and friendship along the way.

Xu Damao sneered. “Just some lousy university student, and already putting on airs? These days, aren’t we all eating from the same communal pot?”

Zhao Qitong replied calmly, “Is that so? Then tell me, why can I wear a thin shirt in my room all winter, while you still have to keep your kang heated?”

Xu Damao was at a loss for words. “Y-You’re just messing around!”

Second Uncle Liu Haizhong leaned in curiously. “Xiao Zhao, how did you set up that heating?”

Zhao Qitong smiled. “Second Uncle, it’s called science. If you want to learn, materials and labor are extra.”

Qin Jingru asked softly, “Brother, can you really do everything?”

Zhao Qitong smiled warmly. “There’s plenty more I can do. I’ll show you, little by little.”

From renovating the courtyard house to dominating the steel mill, from technological innovation to harmonious neighbors, watch how a transmigrator starts a life of easy wins in the 1960s!

Siheyuan, Period Story, Sign-In System, Tons of Supplies, Plausible Numbers

Looking for period novels like "The Courtyard" and "Under the Zhengyang Gate". They should have a System, preferably one with sign-ins that give you tons of supplies and goods each time. Most importantly, the period details should be realistic, like a bride price of around ten yuan, not a few hundred just because someone feels generous.
