Reborn in 1990, Fragrance Rises from Wumeng Mountain

The wheels of history roared forward through the 1990s, and countless people fought tooth and nail to board the express train bound for prosperity.

Yet behind the dividends of the times lay villages and familiar faces, mercilessly crushed beneath the tide of rapid development and soon to be reduced to dust.

Back in 1990, he once again stood at a crossroads in life.

In his hands was an admission letter to a graduate program at a university in the provincial capital, a one-way ticket to personal glory and a complete escape from the impoverished mountains.

Behind him was Yunyan Village, battered by wind and rain. Its sauce workshop had gone bankrupt, and the villagers had barely enough to eat. The hometown that had given him life and raised him was visibly fading away.

In his previous life, he had no choice. Though he eventually gained both fame and fortune, he became a rootless drifter.

This time, he wanted it all!

Starting with a jar of chili sauce from a humble village workshop, he would refine the process, upgrade the packaging, break through with marketing, and lead the mountain village toward prosperity one step at a time.

He was determined to fill the entire southwestern mountain region with the rich aroma of fermented sauce!
