[Period Setting + Hong Kong Island + Two Powerful Leads Making Money + Punishing Scumbags + Never Taking Things Lying Down]
In her previous life, Ruan Mingzhu was forced by her cruel adoptive parents to sign a contract selling herself, then sent to become the fifth concubine of an old gangster in the walled city.
To save her, Jiang Yanting, a rough-edged punk who repaired cars on the street corner, charged into the walled city alone and was hacked to death.
Reborn, she returns to the day they tried to force her into marriage.
Ruan Mingzhu slaps her adoptive mother across the face, then shoves her snickering stepsister into the bridal sedan. She grabs Jiang Yanting, still covered in motor oil, and says, “Come on. I’ll help you make a fortune!”
It all starts with a battered secondhand sewing machine...
She makes haute couture, opens garment factories, and builds a department store chain. Years later, Ruan Mingzhu becomes the department-store queen of Hong Kong and all of Asia, laying down the rules while standing above foreign corporate giants!
And the poor mechanic from back then transforms into a logistics tycoon who dominates Hong Kong’s docks.
Together, they join forces: one monopolizes production and retail, while the other rules freight and the docks.
“Starting today, the rules of Victoria Harbour are ours to make!”
