Siheyuan: A Trillionaire Overseas Chinese, With Every Beast as a Tenant

In 1949, with everything waiting to be rebuilt, the capital welcomed peaceful liberation.

Lu Jingyuan transmigrates as the sole heir to a Chinese tycoon's trillion-yuan fortune in Southeast Asia. With a pocket dimension and countless supplies at his disposal, he answers the call to return home and help rebuild the country.

He means to quietly become a patriotic capitalist. But when he takes the deed inherited from his ancestors to claim the courtyard at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang, he discovers that a bunch of scoundrels have occupied his family’s property!

Yi Zhonghai puts on airs and tries to lay down rules for him?

Jia Zhangshi throws a tantrum and refuses to move out?

Silly Zhu thinks his fists give him the right to resist by force?

Lu Jingyuan smiles.

He pulls out the deed, stamped with its red seal, while a line of armed guards stands behind him.

“This entire courtyard is my lawful ancestral property!”

“Want to live here? Fine! Pay ten times the going rent!”

“Can’t afford it? Then get out and go work at a farm in the northwest!”

In an era of extreme scarcity, the scoundrels in the courtyard chew on cornbread every day, struggle to survive, and turn on one another like dogs fighting over scraps.

Meanwhile, Lu Jingyuan lives in the grandest courtyard house, feasts on delicacies reserved for special guests, gathers the city’s priceless antiques, and watches the show from his balcony. Little by little, he becomes the new era’s greatest tycoon behind the scenes!
