Reborn in 1985, she tears up her marriage contract and weds a rough-hewn man. From a roadside stall to three thousand stores worldwide, she builds a billion-dollar business empire with a single bowl of baozi.
---In her previous life, Lin Wanzhi married the scumbag Chen Zhihao, who drained her of every last drop of strength until she worked herself to death at thirty-five.
Reborn in an instant, she returns to the day of her engagement.
She tears up the marriage contract in front of everyone, then turns around and marries Gu Chenzhou, the poorest rough-hewn man in the village.
Everyone says she’s crazy:
Instead of marrying a city man, she marries a penniless veteran?
But Lin Wanzhi knows that this rough-hewn man is the best choice she will ever make.
No money? Then she’ll earn it herself.
Pushing a battered tricycle, she starts out with a roadside jianbing stall.
She earns ten yuan in a day, and she’s thrilled.
She makes three hundred yuan in a month, and she’s content.
A year later, she takes over her first baozi shop and names it Wan’s.
Eight stores in three years.
Expansion to other cities in five.
A nationwide presence in ten.
Three thousand stores across the country and a Hong Kong stock market listing, with a market value of six hundred million, in fifteen years.
From street vendor to the world’s richest woman in the restaurant business, it takes her eighteen years.
In this life, she has a man who loves her with all his heart, clever and well-behaved children, and a group of friends who would risk their lives for one another.
But she has never told anyone the greatest secret about being reborn:
She is not Zhao Suqin’s biological daughter.
A search for her birth family uncovers a shocking secret hidden for more than twenty years.
Her biological mother is terminally ill, her cousin, the real heiress, returns to claim her family, and enemies from her previous life come back for revenge…
Family, romance, and business battles: every step is fraught with danger.
Lin Wanzhi answers all her doubters with a single sentence:
“Put your heart into making baozi, and put your heart into treating people well.”
Quality is the best foundation for confidence. Sincerity is the strongest weapon.
