After the Demolition, Our Whole Family Made the Pig-Butchering Scam Hit List

In 2006, Qinzhong Village is about to be demolished. In some households, everyone is at each other's throats, with the children taking turns threatening to hang themselves to force their fathers to buy them luxury homes.

"Their family is so divided. It's hilarious."

At a family dinner, the Zhong family sneers at how divided other households are.

Their cousin, a refined young man who prides himself on being the only grandson, advises Zhong Xu not to antagonize too many people in the village, because it would damage Grandpa's reputation. He says he's only looking out for her.

Zhong Xu plays a truth card and gently asks him what he'd do if Grandpa left the family fortune to her.

Cousin: Kill him! Wipe out his only son's whole family! Eradicate their entire clan!

Everyone: ???

Zhong Xu gets it: The good news is that this guy isn't Grandpa's son. The bad news is that he's planning to wipe out my family. In her previous life, he even succeeded completely, becoming a promising young talent and one of the country's richest men.

That night, the fire still starts, but the people carried out, burned beyond recognition, aren't Zhong Xu's parents.

Later, Zhong Xu gets an extra ten million. Her cousin's family is given to her by her real grandfather, and she can't even refuse. After all, the people in their family have either "gone down" or "gone in."

The whole clan trembles and insists that she take it.

What should she do with all this money?

She's being targeted again.

Whose spouse is cheating now? Who bought a savings product with a 25% annual interest rate and is waiting to retire? A miracle cancer drug is going public, so the stock is sure to soar, and everyone has to buy it? Whose mustard-yellow Ferrari crashed into the village ditch? Cheating is one thing, but why steal my family's corn?!

Deep-pit investments, honey traps, scumbags, murder, romantic plots, wicked marriages... Noble families last only three generations, and three years of sudden wealth end in ruin.

In her previous life: fleeing, paying debts, covering her sister's medical expenses, groveling for clients, pouring drinks for bullies, serving food to an old flame, smiling as she fended off wandering hands, watching her youth fade, and losing half her life.

In this life: buying a luxury home, taking the college entrance exam, investing, collecting rent, growing a snowball of wealth, helping her best friends and companions get rich, and changing her fate against the odds. A spear smeared with shit, one stab and whoever it hits dies.

The tycoons and heirs of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Hong Kong suddenly discover that a ruthless woman has emerged from a village slated for demolition.

She's ruthless because her ability to amass wealth is more terrifying than theirs, and any criminal who gets close to her winds up in the deepest pits of hell.

There's even a pig demon on the hill behind her house that can hunt down scammers.

Does she have a ghost?

One day, the wealthy, perfectly matched fiancés who were bound by a Schrodinger's engagement for thirteen years in their previous lives run into her. They think this girl has a ghostly aura, bewitching and ruthless, and is far too dangerous to approach.

Before long, the two of them wordlessly break off their engagement, and rumors about them fly everywhere. The Hong Kong media has no scruples and publishes the headline: "Engaged for Thirteen Years, Secretly Meeting the Same Person: The Pursuit of Billions, or Bewitched by a Seductive Ghost? The Rich Really Are a Mess!"

The very next day, the headline is voluntarily taken down.

Because that night, this seductive ghost is in a bad mood after becoming entangled in a rumor with the finicky major client who was her contractor in her previous life. She happens upon a murder scene and hurls a spear one-handed, pinning a serial killer to the wall in a spray of blood.

[PS: Reborn and returning to the past + demolition windfall + beating the hell out of scumbags and criminals + a universally adored, sharp-tongued tycoon (wealth and killing power) + gossip and small-town life in the countryside at the turn of the millennium (juicy scandals from the village to the upper class). Roughly equal emphasis on daily life, investing, and fighting criminals. The story is pure wish fulfillment, and the heroine is the strongest.]

Premise: Make money honestly and work hard to stay alive
