Reborn in 1978: From Scavenging Scrap to Turning My Life Around

Lu Changyuan, the top antique dealer in the country, unexpectedly returns to the height of summer in 1978. In his previous life, Lu Changyuan was raised by his mother from childhood. After two years in the countryside, he suddenly received word that he could return to the city. That was when he learned that his father, whom he hadn’t seen in over a decade, had shown up with his mistress and mortgaged the house.

Reborn on the very day he returns to the city, Lu Changyuan decisively turns his back on the corrupt machine-tool factory and goes from street to street buying up antiques, determined to make up for how he failed his mother and sister in his previous life! While everyone mocks Lu Changyuan for collecting junk, he has already made a comeback and become the richest man in Pingchuan’s ancient city, with courtyard homes all over town…
