On the day when red mist spread all over the world, the first thing Zhou Yan, a supermarket night shift clerk, did was to put a new price tag on the instant noodles on the shelf.
When others snatch supplies, he settles the accounts. He awakened the only [Time Anchor] in the apocalypse - he could live three days after one day in reality; on the other side of the time gap, there was still an "old world" connected to the day before the red mist broke out. He could move goods at will and reset them after moving.
So while others were fighting bloody battles in the wasteland, he was squandering supplies between the two realms. Stock up on goods, set prices, sign contracts, monopolize crystal cores, and use business experience as a weapon. In the first year of the wasteland, he opened his first business; in the third year, he had the final say on the prices of the entire wasteland.
The women around him are more difficult to deal with: the arms chief, the down-and-out daughter, the defecting researcher, and the black market intelligence dealer. They all wanted to kill him at first, but later they became partners in his business.
Until an organization called "Pendulum Clock" came to visit——
"Mr. Zhou, someone has wound up this apocalypse."
