Picking Up Trash from the Start: I Somehow Found a Beautiful Wife!

“What! There’s an antique in that pile of trash!” “What! You can pick up a wife along with the trash!” “What! That mountain of junk is actually a gold mine!” Once the heir to a wealthy family, Qin saw his fortunes collapse overnight. Burdened with astronomical debts, he was reduced to performing in bars and delivering takeout, barely scraping by with odd jobs. Then he unexpectedly awakened the Trash-Picking System! Not only could he find treasures in the garbage, he could also recycle old things for points! Starting with nothing but a stick, he had to scavenge all his gear! “Buying scrap! I pay top prices for old junk. Out with the old, in with the new!” Thanks to Qin’s generous offers for junk, people flocked to him, including plenty of young women and homeless kids. “Big brother, my dear big brother, I’ve got trash at home. Want it?” “Of course I want it. I’ll take as much as you’ve got!” “If it isn’t old, I don’t want it. If it isn’t worn out, I don’t want it either. Ideally, it should be something that’s already broken.” “I guarantee you’ll be satisfied with my stuff. Come over tonight and you can have it all.” “But what about the price?” “Don’t worry, sis. We’re both struggling at the bottom. As long as it’s old enough, I’ll offer you a price you’ll love.” With one wild stroke of luck after another, he went from owing a million to becoming a billionaire, driving everyone to invent their own explanations. His family thought he had deliberately planned his bankruptcy, his business rivals were convinced he held some secret opportunity, and his old enemies were so wary of him that they didn’t dare provoke him again. The protagonist could only smile wryly. “I’m just a scrap dealer!”
