Fed up with the rat race in the big city, Lin Shu quit his job and returned to his run-down hometown, only to unexpectedly bind himself to the Transdimensional Infrastructure Investment System.
He thought he’d be stuck farming, but the System rewarded him with nothing but science fiction-grade technology: life-extending gene drugs, anti-gravity sports cars, and wisdom fruit that unlocked the brain’s potential...
The catch? These god-tier items couldn’t be taken outside the small county town, and the System’s upgrades were tightly tied to the local permanent population and level of prosperity!
To upgrade the System and get his hands on more advanced technology, Lin Shu had no choice but to open a futuristic auction house at the entrance to his village.
At first, his blind date mocked him as a useless freeloader, while his relatives all shook their heads and sighed.
Then one day, countless private jets roared in and completely packed the village’s threshing ground.
Wall Street tycoons wept and begged for the chance to bid on the life-extending drug, offering to fully fund a world-class top-tier hospital at the village entrance in exchange for local residency.
Leading scientific luminaries shamelessly turned up as physics teachers at the village elementary school so they could research anti-gravity technology and rack up local contribution points.
The world’s elite went completely crazy, brandishing endless stacks of cash and turning this backwater town into a global hub beyond the reach of the rest of the world!
Looking at his hometown, where every inch of land was worth a fortune and the big shots were packed shoulder to shoulder, Lin Shu spread his hands helplessly. “All I wanted at first was to go back to the village and lie flat!”
