Reborn in 1985, I open my eyes to hear my sister-in-law shouting abuse in the street.
A chicken from next door ate her scallions, so she demands two mao in compensation.
I thought I was in for another lifetime of being dragged down by my awful family.
Then the System says: Correction complete. My sister-in-law's shrewish tirades have been converted into [God-Level Supply Chain Mastery].
I watch as she calculates costs, losses, and inflation for the neighbors.
They end up crying and paying an extra two mao.
Later on.
My sister-in-law becomes the "Cost-Crushing Machine" that strikes fear into suppliers.
My second uncle becomes a marketing guru who talks his way into selling rotten vegetables for a fortune.
My superstitious mother picks locations using the almanac, and wherever she buys becomes a central business district.
My stubborn father lectures everyone into a ruthless corporate culture.
My honest older brother stammers his way into making his products a nationally certified brand.
Even the family mutt gets mistaken by foreign businessmen for a "Chinese Imperial Guard Dog."
And me, the only normal person in the family,
spend every day covering for them, cleaning up their messes, and pretending to be profound.
Along the way, I become the richest person in the world.
So, which member of this family of immortals is the real protagonist?
