In the autumn of 1984, inside a villa halfway up a hill in Hong Kong, a forty-five-year-old man speaks animatedly to the group gathered around him. “The mainland has sounded the call for reform. Sweeping reforms are inevitable, so it’s time for us to go back and make our mark.”
Now that the Lou family has a transmigrator, Lou Qiyuan, can those beasts still leech off them?
Lou Qiyuan: “What you see isn’t necessarily what you think it is. Once you see what it really is, you’ll understand why you don’t like it.”
Lou Xiao'e: “Second Brother, I don’t like that thing anymore!”
Qin Huairu: “Fresh, hot Silly Zhu for sale! One mao per jin!”
Yi Zhonghai: “Sons for sale! A useful, dutiful eldest son, only two mao and two. No risk of getting ripped off, no regrets!”
He Xiao: “I want to leech too! Let me leech, let me leech!”
He Daqing: “Give me back my ancestral home!”
Liu Haizhong: “Yi Zhonghai, the head of the compound? Ha! I spit on you!”
Xu Damao: “Silly Zhu, you’re calling a thief your father. I have no respect for you!”
Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng: “So you don’t actually need a chef to open a restaurant.”
Yan Bugui: “Turns out I really did spend my time scheming over trivial things.”
Jia Zhangshi: “Old Jia! Dongxu! The Jia family has no descendants!”
Bang Geng: “Where’s my father?”
Xiao Dang: “So I’m the only one who’s actually part of the Jia family?”
Huaihua: “My father is a mysterious and powerful man.”
The story unfolds well and is interesting
