I have read until chapter 359 and only now writing a review. if you want to read this Novel then go ahead. The only flaw that i have experienced so far is related to the translation quality specifically related to genders however there is enough context in the chapters to determine which gender is which character. such as the protagonist is male, he has a wife and a daughter. There hasn't been any remarks that could be considered as racist which you might expect in a Chinese translation. To give a better understanding if I scale racism in a scale of 10. this novel so far (Chapter 359) only scores around 0.5/10 I.e it's only racist if you have a sensitive mindset that defaults any behavior as racism just because it's a Chinese novel. Nationalism? I would scale it 3/10 (At least until chapter 359). This only became a focus on recent chapters but it wasn't overbearing, I only felt uncomfortable because I was cautious and was looking out for it. otherwise It perfectly fits with his personality and doesn't feel like the author was "Convinced" To include. If you are expecting a business oriented novel then this is definitely the Novel for you at least so far that i have read Which is again until chapter 359, I am repeatedly mentioning the chapter number because Although the novel is progressive but it is probably gonna take a long time to finish. so This review might become obsolete in later stages where those issues i have mentioned might pop up. But that's also unlikely in my opinion, because the author who wrote this novel seems to have a high standard when it comes to storytelling and moral compass. I am genuinely impressed. So I hope, if by chance the translator shows this review to the author, They would consider ending the novel when it's time rather than drag it for too long. Why? because I would rather treat this as @ 5 star meal than a tasteless soup which has been diluted by water too much (I.e writing a lot of chapters to the point it repeats the same plot point over and over again this diluting the quality) This is probably one of my favorite novels so far to the point i would have genuinely supported the author if i could and had money lol. Anyways, I thank the translator for uploading this novel here with it's English translation. This is the quality I hope many Chinese authors aspire towards when they make a novel not the repetitive novels I have found and read. Like genuinely The only reason I feel exhausted and can't read more chapters right now is because of my own fatigue for reading too many chapters lol. but again I hope the author is cautious about writing too many chapters. because i would rather that this be a short great story than it becoming one of those mindless novels that only makes us lose more IQ or causes us to shut down our brain to read. and also with this novel, i am pretty confident in the translator's taste in novels, so i hope they upload other novels they like especially related to the mc becoming rich in some way (Doesn't have to be in our world to be honest). Thank you for reading this review, Stay safe and hydrated and healthy.
