Synopsis

[Fast-paced and satisfying + a dual comeback for the business and its characters + from rural beginnings to the world stage + backed by cutting-edge tech] “One portion of black soil is the size of a square meter, and you want a hundred thousand yuan for it? That’s almost as expensive as prime real estate in Shenzhen and Hong Kong!”

Xu Huaian couldn’t help grumbling to himself. What kind of absurd System was this?

The next moment, a notification from the System’s store appeared.

[Exclusive property of black soil: Enhances ordinary seeds and seedlings, increases their genetic effects a hundredfold, and cuts their growth cycle by a factor of ten. Meet the cumulative purchase target to unlock the “Black Crystal Mine” and “Ultimate Black Box” modules!]

Xu Huaian’s eyes lit up as he read the description.

“If it really works like that, I’ve got plenty of bold ideas!

Even if I have to sell everything I own, I’ll put off getting married and buy a portion to see how it goes!”

New-Style Rich-and-Powerful Novels, Please: No Old Recommendations

No broken engagements, no cheating, no face-slapping from the start, and no starting off with tens of trillions. That’s so annoying. I want a down-to-earth story about quietly becoming a billionaire without anyone noticing.
