I Became the Richest Man in Hong Kong in The 1980s with a Shameless System

In the 1989 Lunar New Year, the front pages of every major Xiangjiang newspaper carried the same story: the battle over the Clock family's fortune, belonging to the "Watchmaking King," Zhong.

The old master of the Zhong family announced that over the next year, he would choose the family's ultimate heir from among the grandchildren of his three sons.

Hong Kong media published a deluge of analysis about the Zhong family, ultimately agreeing that the eldest branch was already out of the running, and that the contest would be decided between the second and third branches!

To outsiders, the eldest branch of the Zhong family had always been short on descendants. Its only legitimate grandson had already died in a car accident.

Now the only grandchild left was Zhong Wutong, a country girl from the mainland who had only just been recognized and brought into the family.

How could Zhong Wutong possibly stand up to the talented people of the second and third branches all by herself?!

When Zhong Wutong woke up, she discovered she had transmigrated into the body of the eldest branch's granddaughter, who had died by drowning. Worse, a shameless System had been bound to her.

The System explained that her lifespan was now sustained entirely by Depravity Points. If she wanted to survive, she had to become as shameless as possible.

And the more outrageous her misdeeds, the more likely she was to earn a System reward: a MAX Luck experience card!

So, at the 80th birthday banquet of a casino magnate, Zhong Wutong kicked away the longevity tonic the birthday boy drank every day.

The whole room erupted. Everyone thought Zhong Wutong had either gone mad or grown tired of living.

[Congratulations, Host, for unlocking the "Abandoned by Everyone" achievement. A 7-day MAX Luck experience card has been issued!]

A renowned Hong Kong developer donated funds to build the largest orphanage in the city, holding a grand groundbreaking ceremony and even inviting reporters to livestream the event.

When Zhong Wutong arrived, she cheerfully presented the developer with ten coffins as a congratulatory gift.

[Congratulations, Host, for unlocking the "Enemy of the Entire City" achievement. A 30-day MAX Luck experience card has been issued!]

A model couple from a wealthy Xiangjiang family, hailed as a match made in heaven, held a hundred-day celebration for their first baby. Zhong Wutong gave them two strollers as a gift:

"That way, they each get one, and the kids won't have to fight over them. Problem solved, no need to play favorites between your two children!"

At year's end, when reporters asked about the Zhong family's inheritance, the cautious casino magnate stated plainly, "I'm backing my young friend Wutong. No need to say more!"

The daughter of a shipping magnate said, "I still haven't repaid Wutong for what she did for me. If I didn't support her, wouldn't I be just as vile as my ex-husband?!"

The people of Xiangjiang all said, "If the old master Zhong doesn't choose Miss Wutong, he really must have lost his mind!"

Later, Zhong Wutong not only inherited the Zhong family, she even became the richest person in Xiangjiang, earning a reputation as a master investor with a golden touch!

Everyone was intensely curious about how this investment genius had managed never to lose.

Whenever Zhong Wutong faced questions like that, she could only sigh inwardly.

How could she tell them that the more shameless she was, the luckier she got?!
