You Called Me a Tyrant, So Why Are You Crying Now That I've Really Resigned?

Jiang Ye transmigrates to another world and becomes the leader of Xia, a small, weak nation.

Facing internal troubles and external threats, Jiang Ye has no choice but to govern the country by unconventional means.

When the people have no food to eat, Jiang Ye makes flatbread from the roughest, cheapest grain and sells it to them at a low price. The food is coarse, but it saves lives.

To address the country's backwardness, Jiang Ye produces cheap, low-quality appliances and sells them to the people!

Though the appliances are poorly made, they take the people straight from the "old society" into the "modern world."

When profiteering merchants exploit the national crisis, Jiang Ye cracks down hard and makes an example of them!

But the more Jiang Ye does, the less the people understand him!

"Even pigs wouldn't eat this flatbread, and you're making us eat it?"

"Jiang Ye has monopolized the appliance market and sells nothing but junk!"

"Jiang Ye is rolling in money while the people suffer! Get him out of office!"

It's not just the people who fail to understand him. Even the generals Jiang Ye trained are conspiring with the rebels to overthrow him.

Jiang Ye is heartbroken. He resigns and steps down, and the rebels take power...

In an instant, the cheap flatbread is gone, the affordable televisions are gone, and everything is gone.
