The 1970s: I Short the Toxic Fake Friend with 300X Leverage

“Yanyan, lend me that coat. If you won't, then you don't really consider me a friend!”

Faced with her toxic best friend's emotional blackmail, Su Yan smiled and handed over the coat, then sewed an expensive IOU from the supply cooperative into its pocket.

In her previous life, she was the lead researcher at a top-secret national laboratory. Now she has become a frail real heiress in the 1970s, and has snatched the fake heiress's ancient jade space. With a scientific mind and a photographic memory, she quietly builds herself up on the farm.

She never has hysterical showdowns. She only knows how to “short-sell”! Need supplies? She makes the villains promises they can't resist, then lets them borrow until they collapse under their debts. Want to steal credit? She hands over plans laced with bombs, waits until they reach the heights of glory, then closes her position with one decisive strike!

By the time her hypocritical biological parents in the capital regret everything, Su Yan, whose debt collector is none other than the fearsome and violent commander He Lin, has already ascended to the pinnacle of national scientific research.

Are the fake phoenixes at the top of their house of cards ready to crash?
