Rich Tycoon System Stories With Detailed Spending, Like Luxury Shopping and VIP Memberships
Don't have them spend hundreds of millions right from the start. The spending process needs to be described in detail. In some tycoon novels, they spend billions like it's nothing. It feels like they were written by poor people with no perspective, just for wish fulfillment, but it's not even satisfying. All they do is buy luxury goods, sports cars, and mansions, and they aren't even grateful to the System. Ideally, just...

It's good to watch, but I have a problem after watching it. The old man went overseas to make money in the 11th year of the Republic of China. He was considered to be 10 years old at the time. The old man still played with Jimmy when he was a child. The old man was almost 110 and still in good spirits.
The writing is so good, like the setting sun at five or six o'clock in the morning, the rolling waves on Mount Taishan. General MacArthur once said that after reading this book, he would not be afraid of being poisoned, because he had tasted the most poisonous thing in the world.
It's good to read. I was a little nervous when I read the opening chapter, just following the trend, but as I read on, I realized that the writing is really good👌
This is one of my favorite articles. The main character, Goldfinger, has a rough but not brainless character and is very logical. The plot of the story is reasonable. Especially, there is no bad love in the article. I am very satisfied that it avoids the problem of women posting when men are powerful. The article contains some financial knowledge and some historical background at that time. There is no random setting and it looks more real and not brainless!
The foreshadowing echoes back and forth, the logic is on line, the emotional line is delicate and not procrastinating, and there is no bloody misunderstanding to forcefully abuse people. The author's writing style is smooth, with a strong visual sense, and the description of big scenes is full of tension. The only small drawback is that the early stages of the game are a bit slow, so you can get straight to the top after surviving the first few chapters. Overall worthy of five stars! It's rare for a genre of the same type to take into account plot, character, and logic. Friends who like this genre shouldn't miss it!
I wonder if he has traveled through ages without becoming younger? How do you find a bride and others still recognize her??? How do you say who is his son? I don't quite understand what this is about. The old man and his family in this article are dead and only then do they remember that the fallen leaves have returned to their roots. They were so rich when they were alive and there are still people in their family. Why don't you come back or give your family some money?
The subject matter is quite good, but when the couple travels back to 1980, forget it for the sake of the system and the foresight. A 5-year-old child in his hometown can be said to be different from the two countries. But when he returned to NY, he was not surprised at all. Moreover, all the relationships between the couple came back together. This dress...
Give yourself a good review and encourage yourself 😳
The writing is quite good, but the timeline of time travel at the beginning is a bit messy, but the subsequent details are still well controlled.
It's very good. It's considered top-notch in the genre. It doesn't deliberately highlight 13 just to show off. It has a story to tell.
