Living a second life, Xu Zhiyao resolves to study hard and catch the tail end of the era's great changes, so she can give her mother and grandmother a better life.
But wait, why did her mom quit the textile factory? Why is her position and salary getting higher and higher? Why did she even buy a factory? Why did she start her own clothing brand?!
And why is everyone else just as good at making money as her mom?
For example, why is her quiet stepfather the founder of a major supermarket chain? Why has the cousin she grew up with become a top programmer and founded a game company? Why has her childhood friend, the one she tells everything to, become an overnight sensation and the nation's sweetheart after starring in a single movie?
Xu Zhiyao is completely bewildered.
If everyone's so good at making money, what is she even here for?
Slow-paced slice of life
The story begins in 1990
Coming soon: Becoming the Richest in the Martial World with High-Tech Gadgets
After Shen Yunqiao dies in a car accident, she transmigrates into a wuxia novel the author abandoned halfway through and gets bound to a rotten, black-hearted System.
The System patiently persuades her: Come on, finish some missions! There are generous rewards waiting for you!
Shen Yunqiao works herself to the bone completing a mission. Her reward: one bottle of super-super-super-super-powerful insecticide.
Shen Yunqiao: ?
She gives it a casual spray, and the legendary Miaojiang venomous insects, impervious to blades, spears, water, and fire, all die on the spot.
The Gu King: ??
Shen Yunqiao: !! Well, I'll be!
From then on, Shen Yunqiao realizes you don't have to be a martial arts master to get by in the martial world.
The Demon Cult's Saintess is after her, and her weapon is a magic zither? No need to worry, Shen Yunqiao has high-powered noise-canceling earmuffs.
Can't see in a tomb because it's too dark? No problem, Shen Yunqiao has a high-powered flashlight.
The 100,000 taels of gold buried somewhere on the Jiangnan wealthiest man's land can't be found? Shen Yunqiao pulls out a metal detector.
People discover that a "black shop" called the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion has opened in the martial world. It sells things nobody has ever seen before, and every item is priced in gold.
Everyone thinks it'll close in a few days, but instead the crowds keep growing. Now there's even some kind of VIP reservation system?
#Discussion: How much gold does it take to become a VIP at the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion?#
#Will that super-super-super-super-super-powerful insecticide ever be restocked?#
#No more, no more. Pavilion Master Shen says if she stocks it again, the Gu King will hang himself at her shop entrance.#
Theme: The harder you work, the luckier you get
Suddenly I received a notification about V rebates
Is it actually a trap???
Did the author run away? Not updated. . . .
Is this update still available in advance?
Is this my stepfather? Lots of coincidences
I really like reading this kind of slow-paced period novel. I didn't feel tired even after reading five hundred chapters. But Lin Qiang really had a hallucination about my father. He has no ability and still owes money everywhere. I am still relying on the help of relatives to survive. There is a guy in my family who says he won't listen to scolding and won't stand still. He owes hundreds of thousands of dollars every time he pays off. This can really make people faint. I still wonder from time to time whether I have high blood pressure.
