Shen Meng, an economics master's graduate, transmigrated into the body of an orphan in 1962.
From the start, she had half a steamed corn bun hard enough to knock out a dog, plus the hidden debuff of having a “politically sensitive background.”
Looking at her empty grain sack, Shen Meng smiled. A shortage of supplies? No, this was an ocean of untapped information.
While others relied on the System to stockpile goods, she anticipated policy changes. While others risked engaging in speculation and profiteering, she led a team in legitimate side businesses.
From gathering wild greens to opening factories, from Hongqi Brigade to Mengyuan Group.
As the tide of the times surged forward, Shen Meng adjusted her glasses and said:
“Don't ask. I'm just dancing within the rules, and, incidentally, becoming a secret tycoon.”
