Reborn in 1995: Getting Rich with Animal Intelligence

Lu Feng accidentally transmigrates to a remote mountain region in 1995, where he encounters a wealthy, beautiful woman on the run from the start.

Just as he escapes one disaster, he runs into a wild boar.

When Lu Feng thinks things could not possibly have started worse, he discovers he can understand what the boar is saying.

“Old Boar, want a wife?”

“Old Lu, where’s this wife you’re talking about?”

“She’s waiting for you at Gao Village. You’ll ride there on your seven-colored clouds and marry her, but you’d better have the bride price ready.”

To get himself a wife, the boar takes Lu Feng to an ancient tomb and roots up gold. Two gold bars in a single go.

Lu Feng cradles the bars, his eyes shining. Beside him, the boar snorts and grunts.

“Is that enough for the bride price?”

“More than enough.”

“So when are we going to Gao Village?”

“Once you can ride your seven-colored clouds, I’ll take you to Gao Village and help you bring your bride home in style.”

The boar is quite satisfied with this answer. It turns around and heads back into the mountains to keep rooting things up.

From that day on, Lu Feng’s household never runs out of goods.

The boar roots up gold bars, the fox carries ganoderma, and the black dog keeps track of all the village gossip.

Lu Feng’s life gets better and better, and rumors start spreading around the village that his money comes from shady sources.

That very night, the vegetable gardens of the families spreading the rumors are rooted up completely.

Lu Feng crouches in the courtyard, feeding cabbage to the boar.

“Could you guys try to keep a low profile? You’re putting me in a really awkward position.”

The boar says smugly, “What’s the point of keeping a low profile? Next time anyone bullies you, just say the word. I’ll bring the boys over and have us dance square-dance right outside their house.”
