Siheyuan: I'm a Ruthless Mastermind, and the Whole Courtyard Is My Tool

After transmigrating into a Siheyuan courtyard, Cao Yaozu turns out to be the most well-connected and helpful young man in the whole compound!

So, faced with a courtyard full of schemers, Cao Yaozu decides to play dirty, fighting magic with magic!

The First Master wants someone to look after him in his old age?

Cao Yaozu: "I won't make the first move, I won't say no, and I won't take responsibility. So what if I keep you hanging?"

The Second Master wants to pull strings to become an official?

Cao Yaozu: "Haizhong, you've been doing well lately. Maybe next time I'll introduce you to my uncle, the factory director?"

The Third Master is always looking to get something for nothing?

Cao Yaozu: "Your daughter-in-law Yu Li is clever and capable. Our families should visit each other more often!"

Ding! The System has detected that a descendant of the Cao family has the makings of a great warlord. The Glory to the Ancestors System is loading...

Before long, the courtyard's assorted villains have become useful pawns in Cao Yaozu's hands.

And with his comfortable life going quite nicely, Cao Yaozu even becomes the compound's boss, taking it upon himself to dispense justice.
