The Qing Dynasty Is Weak and Incompetent. What Does That Have to Do with My Tang Empire?

Li Xi transmigrates to a parallel world in 1900 and binds to the Big Bang System. Killing a foreign devil earns him 200 grams of high-energy explosives, thirty times as powerful as TNT.

But to bind to the System, he has to complete a beginner's quest: build an army and gain 40,000 followers? The System even gives him an overpowered skill that makes him immune to all physical attacks?

Li Xi is completely dumbfounded. He can only pose as a holy man, and from the start he successfully wins people's trust. In the blink of an eye, he becomes the pillar of the Qing Empire, wipes out the invading allied forces, and persuades Xixi to borrow from the great powers to develop industry.

He takes out loan after loan, borrowing like crazy. Once he's used the great powers' money to establish an industrial system, Li Xi kicks the Manchu Qing into the trash heap of history.

America: The Qing dynasty is gone? The Tang must repay my $1 billion loan!

The Russian Empire: 1.8 billion rubles. The Tang is responsible for repayment.

Great Britain: 540 million pounds. If you don't pay, we'll go to war!

France: Right, war! We lent the Qing 1.2 billion francs.

Japan: Baka, Li Xi...
