Chapter 3: Doubts

Chapter 3: Doubts TL: Etude To get rich, one had to act early! The nineties were definitely a period when even a pig could fly— a decade that gave birth to countless legends of the wealthy. The nineties were also a magical time. As long as one had enough audacity, dared to think and act, accumulating initial capital was an easy feat. Becoming a "ten-thousand-aire" was well within reach for the daring. But Chen Jianghai's ambitions went far beyond being a mere "ten-thousand-aire." Becoming a millionaire, a multi-millionaire, or even a billionaire—none of these seemed like unattainable goals. Holding the fish he'd just bought, Chen Jianghai felt somewhat dazed. For just four yuan, he had almost three days' worth of meals, and in generous portions at that. It was only possible in this era! Arriving at his front door, one hand clutching a radio and the other carrying groceries, Chen Jianghai stared at his house and was struck by a thought. To buy old applian...

Chapter 2: A Time of Challenges

Chapter 2: A Time of Challenges TL: Etude "Alright." Chen Jianghai smiled as he accepted the radio from the old man, also borrowing a screwdriver in the process. He first opened the battery compartment. The batteries inside seemed quite new; they probably still had some charge left. Then, he inspected the interior and quickly identified the issue. It turned out the internal antenna had come loose. Fixing it would be simple, requiring no additional parts. "Do you have any aluminum foil at home?" Chen Jianghai asked. "Aluminum foil? I'm afraid not," the old man hesitated for a moment before shaking his head. "What about a Gatorade bottle?" "We have that." "Do you have a soldering iron?" "It's next door. I'll go borrow it." Chen Jianghai took the Gatorade bottle and looked at the label, feeling nostalgic. He wouldn't be able to drink this again in the future. Although it made a brief comeback and was pro...

Chapter 1: Return to '91

Chapter 1: Return to '91 TL: Etude Struggling to sit up in bed, Chen Jianghai felt as if his head were about to explode. "Where... where is this?" He rubbed his head and looked around at the decrepit brick and tile room before him. It seemed vaguely familiar. Hadn't he gotten drunk in the shop just yesterday? How had he ended up here? Could this be a dream? Just as Chen Jianghai was lost in thought, the wooden door of the room was pushed open, and a young woman entered. She was tall, with pigtails, large doe-like eyes, a cute nose, fair skin, and full, rosy lips—reminiscent of the once-famous beauty, Zhou Huimin. "Wan...Wanqiu!" Chen Jianghai incredulously widened his eyes and uttered her name, staring at the woman before him. "You're awake? Breakfast is ready; I'm off to work." With that, the woman picked up a grey jacket and made for the door. "Wanqiu, don't go!" Chen Jianghai instinctively shouted. The woman's body stif...
