Rough Remedies for Foreign Ills

1890, San Francisco. A fifteen-year-old Chinese laborer with a modern soul wakes up in the hell of anti-Chinese sentiment. No high-tech, no divine weapons. He relies solely on the Jianghu spirit, human connections, networking, and gray business ingrained in Chinese bones to climb through the corrupt swamp of the Gilded Age, gain a foothold in gang warfare, and use bribery and alliances to pry open the closed doors of white high society. From the bottom of Chinatown, he passes through depression, war, and financial frenzy until the end of World War II. Whites see him as a barbaric alien, while the Chinese underclass revere him as a patron. He is not written into official history, but over half a century, he quietly changed all the undercurrents beneath that land across the ocean. This is the story of a barbarian, step by step, landing ashore, entering the halls of power, and hiding in the era. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Rough Remedies for Foreign Ills — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
