The Sharp-Eyed, Handsome Rogue Billionaire

Chen Mang is a thirty-year-old, unapologetic deadbeat from the bottom rung of society. As a delivery driver, he got more deducted from his pay each month than he earned, so he had to quit. At construction sites, he hauled 200-pound loads up six flights of stairs, then passed the evenings drinking with his coworkers, playing cards, and shooting the breeze. Realizing he needed to do more than just drift through life, he started hauling bricks by day and making fried rice at night. His stall, which he grandly called “One of the Divine Realm's Top 500 Fried Rice Shops,” drew huge crowds. His sister-in-law talked him into selling insurance during the day for a promised monthly income of 100,000, but he failed to close a single deal and even ruined several others, so he got fired. Back he went to hauling bricks by day and making fried rice at night... He lived in a construction-site dorm, but developed a thick skin, a sharp tongue, a good sense of humor, and a generous heart. The women loved bantering with him, and his coworkers knew they could count on him.

After an accident at the construction site, he hit the back of his head on an old piece of jade and awakened the Heaven's Eye. He could read a person's qi to identify their ailments, spot antiques at a glance, and tell real jade from fake. From then on, his life took off: he cured an old woman's mysterious illness, bought a copper pot for 150 yuan and sold it for five million, then picked up several items on Antiques Street. His Heaven's Eye revealed their hidden secrets, and he resold them to the shopkeepers, making 500 million in half an hour...

He talks his way through the world, but it is his kind heart that sets things right. From a penniless nobody to a business tycoon spanning jade, medicine, and charity, Chen Mang used his Heaven's Eye and his sincere heart to turn “a failure at everything” into a “legendary richest man.” The most valuable things in the world have never been money. They are the eyes that see through to the truth, and a heart that never grows cold!
