Back to 1996: From Nobody to Tycoon

In his previous life, Ye Liuyun spent forty years as a doormat. As he lay dying in a leaky rental apartment, the campus belle who had dumped him was making headlines with the richest man in the country. When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to the height of summer in 1996, a golden age of shrill cicadas and wild, unchecked growth.

In this life, he wasn't chasing immortality. He just wanted to turn his fortunes around!

No System? He had a treasure trove of memories from 2024.

Not a penny to his name? He dared to borrow 200 yuan at usurious interest and head to Shanghai to trade government bonds, buying low and selling high to make thirty times his money in three days!

Facing his ex-girlfriend, who cared more about wealth than love, he sneered, "You couldn't be bothered with me back then. From now on, I'll be someone you can never hope to reach!"

He started out as a speculator, then made the most of the stock market boom. He founded brands and went head-to-head with international giants. At the turn of the millennium, he got in on the internet early and snapped up real estate to build an empire.

This was the best of times. With the blade of memory in his hand, Ye Liuyun swore to crush all the regrets of his past life. As the train of the times roared by, he would no longer be the poor fool left behind. He would become the one at the helm, with his hands on the wheel!

In this life, I will make this vast, teeming world pave the way for me, Ye Liuyun!
