When Lu Yuan woke up, he found himself ten years in the past.Lu Yuan then made the choice no one understood.He liquidated his family fortune, dumped billions into “worthless” relics, and earned the title of the biggest idiot heir alive.But no one knew that three months later, the Global Awakening would arrive. Humanity would evolve. Alien horrors would invade. And cash? Just colored paper.Armed with knowledge of the next decade, Lu Yuan began his insane preparations.
