Courtyard House: Initial Donation of 50 Million

Wang Huanbo, a former courier who died on a delivery post, was reborn as the eldest grandson of the wealthy Wang family in Beijing in 1936. Carrying a dormant system due to insufficient energy, he initially wanted to live a peaceful life as a rich second-generation heir. However, war broke out, and in 1944, the entire Wang family moved to the United States to seek refuge with his second great-uncle, who had previously developed his business there. Thanks to the transmigrator's foresight and some gifts from the system, the Wang family, in the US, joined forces with the Hongmen (Triad) leader Situ Meitang to create the "Carrefour" business empire and even supported the down-on-his-luck car tycoon Kevin Durant in establishing "McDonald's." At eighteen, Wang Huanbo was already a PhD from MIT, with a bright future ahead. However, the system, dormant for eighteen years, suddenly activated, issuing its ultimate mission: return to China in 1954, join the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, and move into No. 95 Nanluoguxiang! Thus, he resolutely returned to China, carrying a check for fifty million US dollars and his own skills, back to that familiar yet unfamiliar courtyard house. But by this time, the courtyard had changed beyond recognition. The deaf old woman who had looked after the house back then was now a recipient of government assistance; Sha Zhu, the son of He Daqing, the father's former cook, was now a neighbor; and the entire courtyard was filled with scoundrels eyeing his family's ancestral property—the west wing. Wang Huanbo's return would surely unleash a storm of the times in this once "affectionate" courtyard!
