When he wakes up, Luo Cheng, who should have been graduating from a technical school, has become a discharged soldier. His classmates have become comrades-in-arms, and the world is no longer the one he knew in 2023.
In this era, everyone is struggling just to stay alive. There are no modern forms of entertainment or material comforts, and even cultural life is desperately lacking.
Luo Cheng wants to help everyone, but family squabbles and relatives coming to him for help are already more than he can handle. And one day he'll have to get married and support a whole extended family.
In this era, the poorer people are, the more children they have, and the more children they have, the poorer they become. Almost every household is a big family. As Luo Cheng slowly adapts to this era, he has to do his best to stay alive.
