[Period Setting] [System] [Rags to Riches] [Strong Female Lead]
In her previous life, Su Nanxing was tricked by a scumbag into being sold to an illegal coal mine.
Only as she lay dying did she discover that Huo Changfeng, the rugged brigade leader she'd looked down on, had saved his last mouthful of food for her. He died in a flash flood while taking part in the rescue.
When she opens her eyes again, she's back in 1980, on the day the scumbag comes to break off their engagement and make empty promises.
"Nanxing, if you agree to call off the engagement, I'll take you to the city to live the good life..."
Smack! Su Nanxing slaps the scumbag flying halfway down the street, without a moment's hesitation.
[Ding! Bound to the "Make Your Hometown Prosper System." Reward from the start: ten billion! Restrictions: cannot be used for personal spending. Personal salary is tied to the village's GDP!]
Looking at her pitiful monthly salary of 32 cents, then at the bare mud-brick house, Su Nanxing grits her teeth.
If anyone tries to stop her from making money, the whole village will have to work themselves to the bone!
She takes over a bankrupt brick kiln, builds an asphalt road, opens a garment factory and launches a small-goods mall...
The once-impoverished village transforms into the richest village in the country, attracting nationwide attention!
The down-and-out scumbag comes back with red eyes, begging to get back together, only to be kicked three meters away by Huo Changfeng, now the brick factory director.
Usually steady and stern, the rugged man now stands firmly in front of Su Nanxing, his ears red.
"Don't even think about touching her. The brick factory, the village, and even I belong to her."
Su Nanxing doesn't spare the scumbag on the ground a glance. She turns toward the barren mountains in the distance and waves her hand. The engines of more than a dozen excavators roar as they flatten the last few peaks blocking the road to prosperity.
