Chen Xiangdong, a modern social worker, fell down at his desk after working overtime continuously. When he opened his eyes again, he was lying on the earth kang in the northern countryside in 1983. He became the famous "lazy man" Chen Xiangdong in the village. The original owner was lazy and owed a lot of work points to the production team.
Touching the uncomfortable earthen bed beneath him, Chen Xiangdong slapped himself hard as he thought of the regret that he never had time to spend with his family in his previous life in order to give his family a better life: This time, with the support of the 1980s where opportunities were everywhere, he not only wanted to let his family live a good life, but also live a good life!
When the villagers were still discussing whether they should become self-employed, he took the five yuan he secretly saved and set up a stall in the corner of the county town, selling an improved version of brown sugar cakes. The soft and sweet taste was accompanied by the fresh slogan of "buy three, get one free", and it was quickly sold out.
Hearing that "Chenliang" fabrics were popular in the south, he gritted his teeth and borrowed a bicycle, rode for three days and nights to a neighboring city to buy goods, and earned half a month's salary by selling them when he came back.
As soon as the policy was relaxed, he immediately took over the small shop next to the supply and marketing cooperative and opened a grocery store, selling everything from needles, thread, brains, to novelty toys. Then he rented out an old warehouse in the village and set up a pickle factory, so that the vegetables grown by the villagers could be sold at double the price...
With his advanced ideas and tenacity to endure hardships, Chen Xiangdong dared to venture and try in the tide of the times. From a "poor and lazy man" who was stabbed in the back to "Shopkeeper Chen" who was respected by people from all over the country, he not only wore the big red flower of "ten thousand yuan household" early, but also made the family well-fed, clothed and smiling. In this hot 1980s, he lived a life that others would envy.
