A 1990s Supermarket Connects Past and Present: I Trade Junk for Gold

In her past life, Lin Xiaotao spent her whole life working like a hired hand and serving as someone's personal ATM. Only when she died in front of that pair of scumbags did she finally come to her senses.

Reborn at twenty, she carries a master key that lets her defy fate. She dumps the scumbag, tears into the shameless woman, then turns and opens the rickety wooden door at home.

Behind it is her supermarket from 2025.

Laundry soap, instant noodles, chocolate: all the good things you can't buy in the 1990s are available in endless supply.

Once she's made enough small change, she moves on to the big money. In that case, she'll collect junk and trade it for gold.

One moment, she trades instant noodles for silver dollars from the villagers. The next, she takes those silver dollars back to the modern era and exchanges them for cash.

Today she collects old furniture; tomorrow she sells washing powder. She shuttles goods between two eras and somehow turns the village's most dilapidated mud-brick house into a fancy villa everyone envies.

But just as her fortune is growing, she ends up attracting a handsome, roguish soldier.

Today he helps repair her house; tomorrow he helps bring in the wheat harvest. Then he refuses to leave.

"Taotao, I want a taste of you..."

"Ah! Are you a dog or something?"

With one key and a door that opens both ways, she trades between two eras and gets an entire life in return.
