Ling Heng opens his eyes and finds himself a boy in 1960, waiting to die on the road as he flees famine.
Barely clinging to life from hunger, he’s taken in by Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-grade fitter, and brought to the courtyard.
Jia Zhangshi calls him a bastard, Xu Damao laughs at him for being a beggar, and Jia Dongxu waits for him to get lost.
No one in the courtyard believes he’ll survive.
But they don’t know
The Eight Immortals table he repairs won’t wobble for thirty years.
The old machine tool he upgrades earns him a permanent position, granted personally by the factory director.
The first lesson he teaches Banggeng is: “A stolen chicken doesn’t taste as good. You should be proud of what you earn yourself.”
In a turbulent era, he uses his skills to protect the people he cares about.
When reform and opening-up begin, he starts with a small workshop and takes his “Ling Craftsman” brand to the Canton Fair and on to a gold medal in Milan.
The whole courtyard is green with envy.
Yi Zhonghai holds his grandson and weeps with age:
“The best thing I ever did in my life was find you in the snow and take you in as my son!”
Overall, it's pretty good. Keep up the good work, author.
It's okay, is it the author who has watched the show? Lou Xiao'e should not be married (Chapter 12). I feel that there is a big deviation in the character. I hope it will be better in the future.
