Thriving in the World of the Siheyuan 我在四合院的世界，如鱼得水

With a “Connections Network” System that can bind key people to him, he thrives in an era of scarce goods, navigating social relationships as he quietly weaves a life of his own. Follows the TV version, no major changes. The protagonist is not a good per
