Du Yu renasceu em 2002, atravessando para o corpo de alguém com o mesmo nome em uma pequena vila de pescadores. Começando por abrir ostras na praia, cavar amêijoas e aproveitando a grande onda da época, ele constrói seu próprio império comercial. Dedo de ouro: capturar frutos do mar concede pontos de sorte, que podem ser trocados por itens na loja.
“Mom! Look at that damn Du Yu—he’s stolen more than a dozen duck eggs from our house! All because of that little bitch!”
“What curse has the Du family brought upon themselves to raise such a bone-chilling dragon!”
...
Listening to the shouting outside, Du Yu lay in bed, blinking in confusion.
He remembered originally delivering food in the city. As his order was about to timeout, he had pressed the accelerator a little too hard and then crashed into something.
In a daze, he recalled colliding head-on with a large truck.
Then, a flood of unfamiliar memories surged into his mind.
It turned out that the body he had transmigrated into also belonged to a man named Du Yu, but it was now the year 2002.
Unlike his previous life, this Du Yu had been raised with great expectations, yet he had failed the college entrance exam. Worse still, the village beauty who had always liked him since childhood had abandoned him.
“My dad said I’m so pretty, I’ll surely attract some big boss in the city one day. So just stop coming after me...”
That very day, the original Du Yu had stolen ten sea duck eggs from his sister-in-law’s house, exchanged them at the village shop for three bottles of beer, gotten drunk, and then died suddenly...
And that’s when Du Yu had transmigrated.
Sorting through his memories, Du Yu gave a bitter smile. The original family was supported solely by his widowed mother; his eldest brother had married early, and the two of them urged the original Du Yu to focus on studying.
