I don't want a protagonist who goes head-to-head with everyone from the start. The story should develop realistically and stick as close to real life as possible.

This book is not all fun and all, it is more realistic and there are some unavoidable plots. It requires using your brain. If you don't see the logic and foreshadowing in the first few chapters, I suggest you read other chapters. Sincerely dedicated to people who have experienced the 1980s, let's recall those passionate years together.

✔️1️⃣Don't worry about the title and beginning of the book, that's just an introduction. I think the real value of this book is that the author describes the ordinary people who were laid off in the 1990s and the smoky atmosphere of the market. It is not overly sensational, but it is not lacking in emotion. The plot revolves around Wang Jianguo's family and the characters of that special era around their family. Highly recommended. The score is low.

A very realistic period piece. In the clothing business, set up a stall first and then open a store. Period articles, female videos. No cheats, no system. The main story is that a young star died of illness and it was set in 1980. At the beginning, he declined the unreasonable marriage. Later I got to know my relatives. She begins to lead her family to make a fortune, but encounters setbacks and difficulties during the process. The heroine never gives up and uses her wisdom to resolve difficulties one after another.
