[Feel-Good Period Drama] [Siheyuan Courtyard] [Divine Choices] [Ruthless and Decisive]
When senior engineer Zhou Jianjun woke up, he had transmigrated into a siheyuan courtyard in 1965, as an orphan whose parents were dead and whose job was hanging by a thread. From the start, the hypocrite Yi Zhonghai and the freeloading Jia family teamed up to pressure him into donating!
“You’re all alone, Xiao Zhou. Give me your compensation money and house, and I’ll look after you until the end of your days!”
“Ding! An unreasonable demand has been detected. The ‘Never Compromise’ System has activated!”
[Choice One: Give in. Reward: the ‘Nice Guy’ title. Spend your whole life being a pushover!]
[Choice Two: Never compromise! Reward: god-tier lathe skills, Strength +10, and one hundred yuan in cash!]
Zhou Jianjun resolutely chose the second option! From then on, he became the ultimate nightmare of every beast in the courtyard!
Kick Silly Zhu, the so-called god of war, in the teeth; outsmart the power-hungry Liu Haizhong; make the white lotus Qin Huairu cry! Yi Zhonghai, you want me to support you in your old age? I’ll send you to a nursing home first!
Refuse to help the Jia family and get a warehouse full of grain and meat as a reward! Solve the factory’s problems and receive blueprints for future technology! While the courtyard’s beasts were still fighting tooth and nail over a mouthful of cornmeal, Zhou Jianjun was already living in a mansion, driving a car, eating state-supplied delicacies, and serving as a top national technician, with beautiful women by his side!
The courtyard’s beasts were so regretful they nearly spat blood. “We only wanted to take a little advantage. How did he become such a big shot that we can’t afford to offend?”
Zhou Jianjun: “Don’t mess with me. My bottom line is your abyss. I’m simply someone who never compromises!”
