In 2050, the rules of the world changed without warning. All the world's crude oil vanished into thin air, every power plant became useless, and the world was left permanently without fuel or electricity.
Lin Bei, founder of a former company, was betrayed by a close friend, driven into bankruptcy, and left drowning in debt in a village within the city.
On the day the apocalypse began, the Fuel Monopoly System arrived, granting him a daily quota of 100 liters of fuel and a colossal storage space.
While other people's luxury cars became scrap metal, the whole city fought over water and went hungry. The wealthy were left without water, and logistics ground to a halt.
Lin Bei borrowed money to buy up bicycles, water purification tablets, salt, grain, and books on farming and medicine, getting ahead of the game by investing in the apocalypse's most valuable commodities.
The city's rich begged for fuel to stay alive, while millions bowed their heads for a single supply of necessities.
In a wasteland without fuel or electricity, Lin Bei alone possessed a source of energy. Step by step, he monopolized the entire city and rose to become the apocalypse's top oligarch!
