Well written! Finally, the protagonist of this period fantasy novel isn't a eunuch or a nanny. There are no clichéd tropes like searching for relatives or rushing to give money. I hope the author considers that the items brought back should be appropriate for the time period.
It's a dual transmigration story, and there aren't many historical inaccuracies. The characters, personalities, environments, and supporting characters are also portrayed quite well. The writing is fairly smooth, and the plot development is quite interesting. Pretending to be an overseas Chinese, collecting various old goods in the modern world, refurbishing them, and then going back to the past to sell them is quite a novel idea.
Wow, this is amazing, so well-written! At first, I was frowning, thinking the premise was full of holes and wondering how the author would fix it. But wow, the later parts are really interesting! Most importantly, the author manages to write with style and create a satisfying experience, while maintaining a very logical plot.
Compared to similar novels featuring fake returned overseas Chinese, this one is much better. The characters' motivations are very pure. It started strong but ended weak. The plot became increasingly unrealistic and empty, and was particularly padded.
This book is alright. I'm giving it 4 stars because it's very entertaining. However, if you're expecting to learn anything or find any literary value in it, you won't find anything. It's just pure fiction. But even so, it's considered pretty good on Tomato (a Chinese online literature platform). At least it's enjoyable and easy to read, suitable for casual reading without thinking too much.
The writing is excellent, making for a comfortable read. The plot is well-structured, the author demonstrates solid knowledge, and the logic is generally sound. The protagonist is strong enough without any unnecessary entanglements, and their stance is correct.
It's pretty good, but the only downside is that all the goods are 20-year-old items. No matter how refurbished, there will always be traces of use, and some parts haven't been refurbished, raising concerns about aging and other quality issues. A setting could be added where refurbished goods are reset to brand new condition upon cross-server travel.
Chapter 88, multiple female leads. Lu Donghai has a miraculous encounter that allows him to travel between the 1990s and the modern era without time constraints. Women: He Yuling (Chapter 38, initial recharge); Servants: He Yuyan, Liu Xinxin.
Among books about crossing two worlds and having a dual-world connection, this one is truly quite good. The plot isn't clichéd, and it doesn't feel like child's play. The description of the social situation in 1996 is basically accurate. The author's logic is consistent, and the censorship really limited the author's pace.
This book is really well-written and engaging. Even I, someone who rarely leaves reviews, am tempted to give it a thumbs up. Firstly, the time-travel element isn't particularly novel, but the author's handling and plot development are excellent. It's not just a mindless, feel-good story; it's also quite engaging and makes you want to keep reading.
