Synopsis

[Reborn + period setting + making money + devoted husband + no saintly do-gooder + national team]

In his previous life, Lu Jiang was a degenerate gambler despised by everyone.

On New Year's Eve in 1998, creditors came to collect their debts. His wife, Su Man, was humiliated, then tearfully fed pesticide to their four-year-old daughter before hanging herself...

Lu Jiang's hair turned white with regret that night. Even after he later became a trillionaire, he lived and died alone.

When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to half an hour before his wife and daughter took their lives!

The butcher's knife was still in his hand, and his wife and daughter were still alive!

In this life, he raised the knife and swore:

“Anyone who dares lay a finger on my wife or child will make sure their whole family has a miserable New Year!”

Using memories of the future thirty years ahead, he started by picking up bargains at a salvage yard. He sold crayfish, traded government bonds, bet everything on the World Cup, and stockpiled flood-control supplies...

The people who once looked down on him now lined up, begging him for a way to make a living!

The once-arrogant business tycoons knelt at his door, begging him to show them the way!

But Lu Jiang had this to say: “Don't bother me. I have to go home and braid my daughter's hair. If I'm late, my wife will make me sleep on the sofa!”

(The synopsis doesn't do it justice. Read the story instead! If you don't cry and have a blast in the first three chapters, come find me online and beat me up!)
