Li Xiangyang, a 38-year-old social worker who was in a mess in 2025, suddenly died of a cerebral infarction and traveled back to Shenyang in 1995, becoming the "Li Gou Sheng" in high school. In his previous life, his father was laid off, his mother worked hard all his life, and he regretted that he had accomplished nothing, which became the most painful scar in his heart. With the code of the times engraved in his mind from "Shenyang City Chronicles", and holding the prophetic script of the reform of state-owned enterprises, the explosion of the five-love market, and the rise of real estate, Li Xiangyang vowed to rewrite his destiny: first keep his father's iron job in the machine tool factory, and then let his mother live a good life in gold and silver, and earn a lot of money by stepping on the trend of the times!
But how can a counterattack be smooth sailing? Fighting gangsters, cajoling parents, hustling business opportunities, and wrestling with old foxes, the Northeastern boy relied on his fierce energy and forward-thinking vision to crawl around in Shenyang in the 1990s, which was full of coal smoke and pyrotechnics. On one side, there is the turbulence of his parents, and on the other side, there is the ups and downs of the business world. He not only has to deal with the sudden layoff crisis, but also has to seize the opportunity of hot sales in the Wuai market, and he has to beware of the villains in the dark.
With the unique boldness and humor of Northeastern people, Li Xiangyang used his 38-year-old soul to pretend to be a 17-year-old boy. He protected his family in the wave of state-owned enterprise reform, made gold in the dividends of the market economy, and turned the regrets of his previous life into the sweetness of this life. This is a Northeastern-style novel about a small person who relies on the Golden Finger to travel through time and counterattack in the big era. It is both profitable and heart-warming. It hides the youthful memories and struggle aspirations of a generation.
