Zhu's Comeback: Siheyuan

After the protagonist transmigrates to the world of the 1951 TV drama Love in the Courtyard, he unexpectedly acquires a mysterious System hidden in his sea of consciousness, which becomes his key to turning his life around.

The System comes with a ten-cubic-meter storage space. It may not seem very large, but its functions are exceptionally powerful. It can store and retrieve any object within ten meters, and its capacity changes according to what is stored and retrieved. In 1951, when resources are desperately scarce, this space becomes the protagonist’s dependable lifeline. He can store daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, and salt from the courtyard for emergencies, and collect and keep useful items such as tools and documents while he is out. When danger or an emergency arises, he can also quickly store important objects nearby, ensuring his own safety.

Upgrading the space is no easy task: every ten taels of gold increases its capacity by ten cubic meters. In an era when gold is hard to come by, the protagonist must use his modern knowledge to find ways to make money. He can start a small business in the courtyard, using his insight into future developments to spot opportunities, or seek ways to earn money in politics and commerce, gradually building his wealth. As the space expands, he can store more supplies and resources, laying a solid foundation for his career.
