While everyone else binds themselves to a system and travels to another world, Liu Ren receives 13 billion in demolition compensation from his family's relocated property. Yet the system assigns him to work in the kitchen of a hotpot restaurant. Enduring the drudgery of washing vegetables, difficult coworkers, and shady dealings behind the scenes, he completes beginner missions while accidentally getting caught up in the commercial power struggles among the various factions of the old street. He buys the hotpot restaurant, exposes internal loopholes, consolidates resources, and drives its transformation. With his ingenuity and abilities, he turns one crisis after another into opportunities and even transforms his rivals into allies. As system points, cultivation techniques, spiritual herbs, and miraculous pills are unlocked one after another, Liu Ren rises from an ordinary shopkeeper on the old street to the Golden Core and Nascent Soul realms. His journey to success and immortality cultivation has only just begun.
