Siheyuan: The Tough Guy Returns from the Peninsula to Crush Every Monster and Ghost

[Period setting + siheyuan courtyard + Korean War defense campaign + no System + farming + industrial powerhouse + no saintly do-gooder]

After waking up, Lin Jianguo, an expert in modern mechanical technology and special operations, is reborn as a former reconnaissance company commander in the early 1950s.

From the start, he has just returned from the Korean War defense campaign, drenched in blood and covered in glory. He's assigned to work as both security chief and technician at the Hongxing Steel Mill in the capital.

What's more, he moves into the famous Love in the Courtyard!

No System? No problem! His military combat skills, already at the highest level in his previous life, and the advanced mechanical knowledge in his head are all the confidence he needs.

A matchmaker shows up right away with a proposal, and the prospective bride turns out to be Qin Huairu, a beautiful young woman looking for a reliable meal ticket?

Lin Jianguo gives a cold laugh and kicks the marriage proposal to the curb! Want to suck me dry? Keep dreaming!

He turns around and strides into the Hongxing Steel Mill, repairing discarded machine tools with his iron hands and developing new tractors. He leads the suburban communes in reclaiming land and growing crops, making life flourish.

The courtyard's scheming troublemakers grow jealous. They want to plot against him?

Silly Zhu picks a fight? One military fist technique sends him crawling!

Yi Zhonghai tries to guilt-trip him? Three quick lessons in the law send him off to the neighborhood office for a cup of tea!

The Jia family steals his meat? The security office rounds them up that very night and sends them to a remote farm for reeducation through labor!

A high-ranking leader beams every day: “Jianguo is a real force of nature. He's the very hope of China's heavy industry!”

Everyone else is on the verge of tears: “What do you mean by ‘force of nature’? He's a living King of Hell!”
