County-Town Brahmin: From the Start, Collecting Rent in Yoga Pants

Jiang Li is reborn at a crossroads in his life, and two options appear before him:

[Option A: Stay in Beishangguang, working 996 like a beast of burden. Reward: a mortgage you won’t pay off in thirty years!]

[Option B: Return to your hometown and become the “big shot of a county town.” Bind the Omnipresent Control System. Reward: ownership of the county’s central commercial street!]

Only an idiot would choose to be a beast of burden. Jiang Li instantly picks Option B!

Just after stepping off the bus, he runs into the haughty beauty in yoga pants who looked down on him in his previous life. Jiang Li reveals that he’s her landlord, turning the tables on her then and there!

From then on, Pinghai County has a new all-powerful “local emperor.”

Need an approval that would have ordinary people running themselves ragged? One call from Jiang Li, and powerful figures come calling!

A rich young heir comes to the county to show off? Jiang Li cuts off his access to the county’s resources, leaving him unable to get so much as a hot meal!

Starting with a single yoga studio, he expands into shops, property development, and the entire internet ecosystem... Before he knows it, every industry in the county belongs to him!

The pure girl he’s always loved and the alluring landlady both fall for him.

Years later, when the world’s richest man comes to this little county town looking for business opportunities, he discovers...

Jiang Li: “In Pinghai County, I am the rules, and the rules are me!”
