Sign-In in Great Ming: From the Start, I Mistook Zhu Yuanzhang for My Own Father

In a fenced garden on the outskirts of Yingtian, Zhu Zheng was scraping by with the help of a sign-in System when his father suddenly came home.

"What's with the globe I got from signing in? Am I supposed to conquer the world?"

"What's with the machine-tool blueprints I got from signing in? Am I supposed to open an arms factory?"

In just twenty years, the world order was turned upside down. Under the banner of seeking common ground while setting aside differences, the Great Ming set sail!

Porcelain, tea, and silk flooded the Western markets.

Then, with Western silver running dry and gold nowhere to be found, an alliance of twenty-three nations marched east.

They wanted to use opium to seize the Great Ming's silver, gold, and crops, and enslave the people of China.

"Summon Zhu Zheng, Prince of Zhenhai and Protector of Annam, to lead his troops and warships across the ocean. Not a single Western ship may enter the South China Sea!"

In the end, Zhu Zheng led the Ming Allied Army and, on behalf of the Son of Heaven, made the priestly pope kowtow three times!

The early story swiftly deals with the Great Ming's surrounding threats. The middle and later story focus on naval supremacy.
