Transported to a Year of Famine: Who Says a Lazy Man Can't Turn His Life Around?

[Farming] [Comeback] [Famine] [Lighthearted Comedy] [Heartwarming Child-Rearing] What do you do when you transmigrate into a lazy good-for-nothing during a famine? Asking online, urgent! Tian Mancang: “Thanks for asking. I just woke up, lying on a shabby heated earthen bed, with four kids as skinny as monkeys beside me. The family is so poor even the mice think it’s beneath them, and the original owner has a mountain of romantic debts…” He can’t farm, has no skills, and this body has been ruined by drink and women. What a hellish start! Luckily, there’s always a way forward. After binding to a cross-world trading System, he finds that the “useless junk” everyone else sees is all valuable enough to make money from! Dig up wild taro to trade for grain, pick wild greens to trade for meat. He can even turn chicken blood someone else threw away into tender, silky blood curd, making the whole village drool! Granny Wang gossips: “A lazy good-for-nothing is still a lazy good-for-nothing. He’ll starve to death sooner or later!” Tian Mancang, stewing chicken soup and chomping on wild chicken: “Oh? Then why are you drooling?” Widow Zhang tries to mooch a meal: “Brother Mancang, I’m feeling weak…” Tian Mancang pulls out a silver bracelet: “Pay back your debt first, then we’ll talk. Otherwise, get lost!” From a spineless loafer everyone despises to the pillar of the family leading them to prosperity, Tian Mancang has this to say: “So what if it’s a famine? I’ve got a System, and I’m here. The four kids will have full bellies and warm clothes, and nobody’s going to bully them!”
