In 1998, Liu Chao, a rural boy who failed in the high school entrance examination, went to Shi County carrying a shabby suitcase.
Hard labor on the assembly line, team leaders making things difficult, and workers quarreling with each other make life at the bottom a pitfall at every step.
Once when he stood up for his brother, he angrily beat up the team leader and was fired from the factory. His life hit rock bottom.
When he was confused, a copy of "Grassroots Remedies" passed down from his ancestors became his only reliance.
It does not cure illnesses, it only heals people's hearts; it does not cure all diseases, it only heals desperate situations.
Some people rely on reading to get ahead, and Liu Chao relies on folk remedies to make a career in the market.
Set up a stall to make money, quit gambling to save yourself, buy a small shop, enter wholesale, set up a factory...
From an assembly line handyman, to a business tycoon, to a local industrial tycoon.
He understands people's hearts, breaks scams, fights profiteers, and calms down troubles. With his Jianghu spirit, he fights his way through the tide of the times.
The gangsters respect him for his loyalty, the white gangsters praise him for obeying the rules, the brothers believe that he is reliable, and the women accompany him through thick and thin.
After half a life of ups and downs and thorns along the way, Liu Chao used the wildest path and the most upright life to write a grassroots counterattack in the market legend!
With the folk remedies in hand, I have a way to survive!
