Book Four by Shan Huangshan Lover

Reborn in 1987, with just two yuan and thirty cents from the start.

Chen Yuanzhou woke up on a pile of straw. Beside him stood an earthen house where the family had been out of food for three days, and four younger sisters-in-law, all shivering with hunger.

The youngest, Ruomei, had a fever and was still crying that she was hungry.

Ruolan stood silently in front of her sisters, protecting them. Her fingers were covered in blisters from working the treadle sewing machine.

Ruozhu clutched her textbook, looking at him like he was a dog that might bite.

He started by setting up a stall at the market to sell footless stockings.

In his first month, he earned more than the family had saved in the previous three years.

Everyone thought he was just a peddler with good luck.

Until twenty-two years later

Yuanzhou Chips claimed the top spot in the world.

Ruolan became the real estate queen of the capital.

Ruozhu was elected to the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

Ruju won the iF Design Award twice.

The brand book written by Ruomei became a business school textbook.

And then there was Shen Qingyi, the woman he had moved with a single word, “brand,” at the provincial capital's textile market. Together, they built a global business empire.

They said, “In this life, we're sticking with our brother-in-law.”
