Lin Weiguo, imperial banquet head chef and business tycoon, returns to 1961, a time of shortages, and becomes an orphan in a Beijing courtyard house, bullied and schemed against by the neighbors.
From the very start, Qin Huairu’s family of parasites tries to force him out of his home. The hypocritical First Master, the power-hungry Second Master, and the penny-pinching Third Master have joined forces to steal his parents’ death benefits, waiting for him to starve or fall ill so they can divide up his inheritance!
Faced with a courtyard full of beasts, Lin Weiguo’s lips curl into a smile.
“You think you can scheme against me? You’re not fit to try!”
[Ding! The divine Hongmeng Space has opened!]
Inside the space are a spirit spring and immortal soil, with time flowing a hundred times faster. Plant anything, and it grows!
There are also mountains of supplies from the 21st century, gold and jewels, and countless god-tier technologies from the future and the past!
While the neighbors are beating each other bloody over a single steamed corn bun, Lin Weiguo shuts his door and enjoys space-grown braised pork and big-plate chicken every day!
While Silly Zhu is still congratulating himself on his cooking, Lin Weiguo’s cabbage in clear broth leaves the whole factory drooling, and the factory director treats him as an honored guest!
While Xu Damao is still swaggering around with his projectionist job, Lin Weiguo uses technology far ahead of its time to turn the tide in a crisis, stunning all of Beijing and earning the leaders of the ministries’ praise as a national treasure!
…
Qin Huairu: “Weiguo, I was wrong before. Please, give me one more chance!”
Neighbors: “Chief Engineer Lin, we were blind to your greatness. Please be the bigger person and forgive us!”
With his beautiful, fair-skinned wife in his arms, Lin Weiguo looks at the trillion-yuan business empire he built from scratch and smiles coldly:
“Regret it now? Too late!”
