After Going Bankrupt, I Gained a Gang of Powerful Underlings

As soon as Song Wu returned to the country, the family company was on the brink of bankruptcy.

So Song Wu took the last ten thousand yuan in his pocket, found a little village in the mountains, chopped down some trees, and built himself a small cabin. Every day, he lounged on the hillside, sunbathing and drinking tea, and occasionally teased the innocent little goat demon next door. Life was pretty blissful.

Until his old underlings started showing up one after another...

The richest man in the country, a singer famous all over the world, a celebrated painter, an actor known to everyone, an internationally renowned scientist... and a whole bunch more bigwigs...

[Boss, you used to protect us. Now it's our turn to protect you!]

They pulled the company back from the brink, and it quickly returned to its former glory.

Song Wu: ...

No! He didn't want the company at all! Get lost!

He wanted his little cabin! To shut himself off from the world! To be so idle he grew mold!

His little goat-demon neighbor enthusiastically agreed: "Why bother with that lousy company when you could come herd sheep?"

Older blurb:

As a child, throughout elementary, middle, and high school, Song Wu, born into a wealthy family, loved recruiting underlings and acting like the school's big boss.

Today, he stood up for a discarded child from a rich family.

Tomorrow, he helped a poor top student in their time of need.

The day after, he helped a victim of school bullying escape their tormentors.

The day after that...

Song Wu gathered a crowd of underlings and ruled the school and beyond. He had followers everywhere, street thugs went out of their way to avoid him, teachers got headaches when they saw him, and his classmates were scared of him.

Later, he went abroad for university.

After that, his family was on the verge of bankruptcy, and he had to return to the country.

His underlings heard the news and rushed over:

"Hurry, hurry! The boss is back. Let's line up at the airport to welcome him!"

"XXX, aren't you a tech mogul? Get the boss your latest technology!"

"XXX, aren't you the richest man in XX City? Send the boss some money!"

"XXX, aren't you a movie star? Promote the boss's company!"

"XXX, you... hurry up and help the boss..."

Song Wu, a cultivation-world big shot who had transmigrated to a world of immortal cultivation and returned years later, was a bankrupt young master on the surface but truly only wanted to retire in peace: ???

His underlings chimed in: "Don't worry, boss. You used to protect us. Now it's our turn to protect you!"

QAQ It's probably a goofy, sweet little story.

There are no couples among the underlings. The gong faces off alone against the many underlings, who are extremely protective of their boss.
