The Ancestor Arrives to Help the Family Change Their Fortune

share time: 2025-10-20 06:04:26

The Gu Family Group is on the brink of bankruptcy, with three generations of descendants either addicted to live streaming or living off the family. Gu Wanning, the head of the family, has tried everything from praying to gods to begging buddhas, but nothing works—until Gu Qingshan, their revered late Qing Dynasty ancestor, suddenly “comes to life” from his portrait! The old shopkeeper in a blue cotton robe doesn’t even recognize a smartphone; he mistakes live streaming for a stage show and signs contracts with his private seal like it’s a banknote, turning the house upside down. Yet he uses ancient business wisdom to spot the insider in an instant, resolves modern business battles with the strategy of “retreating to advance,” and makes Gu Wanning realize: the family’s “fortune” never comes from begging—it’s the “upholding one’s heart and not losing one’s soul” that the ancestor has passed down for a century.
