Playing Big Yellow in a Novel Set in the Past

Qian Huang was a miserable wage slave, saddled with a mortgage, a car loan, and rent. One day at work, seething with resentment, he saw a big yellow dog basking lazily in the sun outside his company building and sighed, "Being human is worse than being a dog!"

To his surprise, he really did turn into a big yellow dog native to China.

In the 1950s and 60s, Dahuang saved an entire village. From then on, the "big yellow dog" became "Uncle Dahuang," and the villagers even set a place for him at their banquets...

In the 1970s, Dahuang lived in a crowded apartment block. He'd wake people in the middle of the night to line up for their rationed goods, spot job notices that were taken down just half an hour after being posted, and even take young people sent to the countryside into the mountains to hunt and earn work points...

In the 1990s, Dahuang traveled the highways at night with his truck-driver owner, helping him avoid the bad guys who ambushed trucks and slashed their tires. A few years of hard work meant a lifetime of riches!

In the twenty-first century, Dahuang made friends all over his neighborhood. Even the shop at the entrance recognized the dog, not the owner. You can't even imagine how extensive a dog's social network can be!
