I Won 300 Million, and Now I'm the Richest Person in Town!

On the eve of being diagnosed with a severe stomach condition, my former boss still called to order me back to work overtime all night?

Shen You gives a cold laugh as he looks at the 350 million yuan that has just landed in his lottery account.

To hell with the 996 grind! I'm done working, starting today!

With a fortune in tow, Shen You quietly returns to his hometown, Qingyuan County, an obscure little place in the sticks.

He buys an entire abandoned old street outright, planning to grow flowers, fish, and spend the rest of his life doing nothing.

For some peace and quiet, he rents the storefronts out for next to nothing to a group of people whom everyone else considers failures.

A down-and-out heiress fleeing an arranged marriage, an autistic carpenter who went bankrupt, and a former Michelin-starred chef whose sense of taste is failing all become his tenants.

Shen You only means to let them do whatever they like. If they lose money, he'll cover it, and then he can lie flat without a guilty conscience.

Who knew the look of this sleepy old street would suddenly take a turn for the strange!

The shabby bookstore they casually put together becomes a utopia where literary types from all over the internet make pilgrimages, with influential figures lining up all night.

The dilapidated guesthouse they renovate on a whim wins an international architecture award, and celebrities from around the world fight to book a room.

Even the Chinese rural dog begging at the entrance becomes a top-tier star with tens of millions of followers!

Watching his bank balance soar and the county's GDP climb to number one in the country, Shen You is utterly dumbfounded.

Even more outrageous, the snobbish relatives who once looked down on him all come crawling back to kiss his feet.

His unscrupulous former boss, who used to exploit him, kneels in the old street overnight, begging to buy it. Even the top aristocratic families come knocking.

Shen You sighs helplessly and casually lays out a stack of property deeds worth hundreds of billions.

I really just want to be an ordinary, broke nobody. Why do you have to make me crush you with money?
