Xu Guanlan opens her eyes to find herself a swaddled baby in the family compound of a machinery factory in the 1970s. Her family has next to nothing, but her parents treasure her like gold. In this life, she’s determined to use her knowledge from the future to give back to the warm little home that raised her.

Before word of the reinstated college entrance exams even gets out, her father’s desk is already piled high with study materials;
As the first stirrings of the dual-track price system emerge, her mother seizes the first wave of opportunity…
From the service corner in the factory compound to starting a business in a special economic zone, the Xu family hits every beat of the times.
Faced with jealous neighbors, spiteful superiors, and malicious business rivals, Xu Guanlan adjusts a pair of glasses that aren’t even there. “You want to compare our vision? Compete with me on who has the better information? Let’s see who wins.”
And that boy who’s always quietly reading in the library has somehow worked her into his plans for the future.
