﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎Story blurb﹎﹎﹎

After transmigrating and ending up buried in debt, Zhou Hao starts a money-making hustle so he won't have to enjoy the "wonderful" life of getting stuffed into a sack at any moment.

By day, he sells incense and candles to people. By night, he sells ghostly incense to spirits.

In winter, he sells sweet potatoes to people. In summer, he sells watermelons to demons.

From then on, at the street stalls in the surrounding area, Comrade Zhou Hao single-handedly drives up prices for the entire market!

A fellow vendor: "There's a new idiot next door! He's selling a lousy watermelon for 999! If he manages to sell even half of one, I'll take his surname!"

The vendor turns around to grab a melon, only to see the new idiot coming over and saying, "Bro, I've sold so much I don't have enough change. Can you break a big bill for me?"

The vendor is instantly stunned. He sold one!

The modest idiot vendor Zhou Hao: "It's nothing, it's nothing. Making change is just a hassle. To make things easier for customers, starting tomorrow I'll round everything to the nearest whole number. Then I won't have to trouble you for change."

He's raising prices again!

Mommy, this world is too bizarre. I want to go home!

Zhou Hao, who only wants to pay off his debts by running a stall, X Qin Yi, the creditor who only wants to enjoy a peaceful retirement

…Upcoming novel: No, I Really Am Human!…

Zhou Tang returns to his hometown to recuperate, only to suddenly realize that nothing there is quite normal...

On the first day of renovating the old house, he discovers that the owner of the hardware store on his street is a nail monster.

On the third day after moving in, the tree in his own backyard becomes sentient, too!

Most unbelievable of all, his childhood friend, who has been foolish for years, turns out not to be human either!

Did I... come back to the wrong home?

[Zhou Tang, a goofy guy who only wants to retire peacefully, X Gu Yi, a volatile and obsessive nonhuman]

[Little Scene 1]

Zhou Tang notices that Gu Yi is always fine when he leaves, but comes back with torn clothes or injuries. Could someone be bullying him?

Sentient Tree: Boss! He's huge and strong. Who could bully him?

Zhou Tang: You don't need to be tall to bully someone. Crushing them intellectually counts, too.

Local Bully: Get a grip!!! How is this guy an idiot!!!!

Zhou Tang: What did you say? I can't hear you!

Gu Yi: Tangtang, he called me an idiot!

Beat him up!

[Little Scene 2]

Zhou Tang wakes up in the middle of the night because it's too hot, and sees Gu Yi placing sweet potatoes all around his bed...

"?"

Gu Yi says, "Erha said he put three circles of his favorite little white flowers around his senior brother's bed. His senior brother was so happy he jumped up, grabbed a feather duster, and chased Erha for three whole streets."

In late autumn, what flowers could there be? Only Tao Yuanming's line: 'Picking chrysanthemums beneath the eastern hedge'...

Suddenly, I feel like my 'foolish son' is actually pretty 'filial'...

Theme: Run your street stall by the book and get rich together, you, me, and everyone else.
