Inheritance of Three Millennia
Inheriting a legacy spanning three millennia, an ordinary man rises from humble beginnings to join the ranks of the elite. Once a recent university graduate with nothing to his name, he is suddenly transformed into a renowned collector, appraiser, artist, and entrepreneur. His courtyard residence in the heart of the capital is worth over one billion, while his office buildings are valued at more than ten billion. He establishes a cinema chain, dominates the national box office, and manipulates the global entertainment industry. His ultra-luxury hotel chain, bearing his name, spreads across the nation and earns worldwide acclaim. He acquires the world’s top mining companies and amasses unimaginable wealth. How could an ordinary person undergo such a dramatic transformation in so short a time? As it turns out, knowledge, culture, and even the secrets of cultivation can all be inherited.

Xiao Yao was truly unwilling to accept this, but reality was cruel—what good was frustration? Compared to most people, he was already fortunate enough.
His parents had both been university students in the 1980s, promising young civil servants with bright futures. But his late grandmother was a force to be reckoned with; she insisted that his parents have a second child. She got her wish—they had him, their eldest grandson—but both his parents were dismissed from their government jobs as a result.
Fortunately, in those times, both were rare talents. Though they lost their iron rice bowls, it wasn’t hard to find work that would put food on the table. Now, his father was a mid-level manager at a state-owned enterprise, his mother the chief financial officer at a private firm. Their family wasn’t wealthy by any means, but they lived comfortably.
His elder sister, Banxia, had always been the family’s pride. Throughout her life, she’d come first in nearly every exam. After graduating from Tsinghua University, she’d gone straight to work for a foreign company in the capital, with an enviable salary and benefits.
