Great Ming: I Went to the Capital to Collect a Debt, but Mistook Old Zhu for a Deadbeat

Lin Fan transmigrates to the Ming Dynasty and becomes the young master of a fallen family.

He heads to the capital to collect a debt and happens to meet Zhu Yuanzhang, who is traveling incognito. By a twist of fate, Lin Fan mistakes him for a deadbeat debtor.

Lin Fan: "I've drawn up a repayment plan for you. As long as you're willing to work for me, you'll get back on your feet one day."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "…"

Lin Fan: "Under the laws of the Ming Dynasty, you get flogged for not paying up. If you still don't pay, you'll be sold into servitude. Here's your contract."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "…"

Lin Fan: "The emperor is about to ban maritime trade. Those barbarians overseas are rich and not very bright. I'll take you along to make a killing."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "…"

Lin Fan: "The emperor is about to put paper money into circulation. You absolutely can't hold on to that stuff. Hurry up and exchange it for gold and silver."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "…"

Until one day.

Lin Fan: "We're even. You're free, and I'm off to conquer the stars and seas."

The deadbeat debtor donned the imperial yellow robe.

"Mr. Lin, wait a moment. Take a look at who I am."
