Back to 1990: I Make Every Rotten Soul in the Village Kneel and Behave

Autumn, 1989.

That year, Gao Yuan's mother was bedridden, his second older sister was disfigured by a creditor, and his eldest sister was beaten to death by her husband for helping her family.

His second sister went to demand justice, but they detained her and forced her to take his eldest sister's place. Gao Yuan tried to get her back, but accidentally killed someone in the struggle.

By the time he got out of prison, everything had changed. His family was destroyed, and Gao Yuan was left alone to grow old.

Luckily, Heaven took pity on him and gave him a chance to start over!

His family was still there, and he had an Agricultural Tycoon System to back him up!

A creditor comes to the door?

Touch my second sister and I'll kill you!

My eldest sister is being mistreated?

Don't stay with him. Come home, your little brother will support you!

So what if we're dirt poor? So what if we only have a few acres of thin soil?

Starting in a mountain village, Gao Yuan rises step by step and makes his way onto the world stage.

Many years later, as he turns the soil in his field, a phone call comes in.

"Comrade Gao Yuan, the four major grain merchants have joined forces to wage a soybean war against us. The situation is critical. The country needs you now! How many soybeans do you have?"

Gao Yuan chuckles.

"Don't ask how many I have. Just tell me how many years' worth the whole country needs."
