Night Market Stalls in the ’80s: None of My Customers Are Human

Shen Dongzhi wakes up inside an 1980s novel as the miserable foil to the heroine.

Her reborn cousin steals her good fortune and childhood sweetheart, then throws her out of the house to fend for herself on the streets.

To survive, Shen Dongzhi pushes a beat-up tricycle to a crossroads and sets up a night-market stall.

In the middle of the night, no living customers show up. Instead, a group of pale-faced “good brothers” arrive.

“Boss, one grilled cold noodle, no scallions, and extra paper money.”

Shen Dongzhi swallows nervously and hands over the grilled cold noodles with trembling hands. In return, she gets a stack of real cash and a business secret!

From then on, Shen Dongzhi’s night-market stall becomes the top-tier star of the border between the worlds of the living and the dead.

A starving ghost teaches her a century-old braising recipe, while the wronged spirit of a woman kidnapped and murdered points her to a hidden treasure.

By the time her cousin’s restaurant is bleeding money, Shen Dongzhi has bought the entire street and become the most powerful female tycoon in the food industry of the 1980s!
