1960: I Became the Treasure of the Whole Village

Reborn in the 1960s

Li Cheng is eighteen. He kills a pest and gets a ten-thousandfold grain reward.

Lizards, scorpions, spiders, beehives, golden apple snails, cockroaches, beetles, poison dart frogs, all kinds of snakes... and more!

A ten-thousandfold reward: eighteen jin of millet, twenty jin of corn grits, eight jin of soybeans, ten jin of red beans, and three crucian carp as big as a palm! Two sea bass weighing one and a half jin each! Three jin of top-quality pork belly! Good grief, is this how I get rich?

Grandpa and Grandma dote on their own children and won't let us eat any of it!

Those awful relatives on Grandpa and Grandma's side will regret it until their guts turn green!

Mom and Dad have had such a hard time raising all the siblings. I need to let them taste some meat.

One older brother, two younger brothers, and one adorable little sister. Wait, why is my eyelid twitching? Is romance coming my way too?

Mountain God System mission: Help the 37,000 people working on the Red Flag Canal water-diversion project in Henan in 1960. This real-life feat of "foolish old men moving mountains" requires hunting to earn a ten-thousandfold grain supply for them.

Accept!

Whenever I need money or want to exchange for ten thousand times the grain, the Mountain God System sends me another perk. It seems to put a real-time map in my head, showing the exact locations of wild beasts and prey. Deer, pheasants, rabbits, and countless other birds and beasts: tigers, wild boars, roe deer, sika deer, red deer, foxes, sable, lynx, golden pheasants, swans, and badgers. Hunting them is just a convenient bonus. The Taihang Mountains are mine to roam as if no one else were there!

Ten thousand times the grain! I always have 100,000 jin of grain stored in my space. Thirty-seven thousand laborers, chipping away with picks, blasting with explosives, hauling load after load. A colossal project! A man-made river in the sky! I actually get to take part as a hunter supplying grain!

We've got money! We've got food! Life keeps getting better!
