I Do Venture Capital in the Great Song

Li You, a 21st-century financial whiz, falls asleep and wakes up in Bianjing, the Northern Song capital, as the most famous pauper in the western part of the city. As he stares at his thatched hut, which leaks like a cave behind a waterfall, and contemplates his life, a voice suddenly booms in his mind:

Great Song Financial System loaded successfully

Beginner's mission: Earn 100 strings of cash in three months, using only the methods available in this era.

Ultimate ambition: Build a shadow financial empire spanning Europe and Asia, and redeem a ticket to "return after rebirth." Warning: With each rebirth, only 10% of your memory fragments will carry over.

From then on, a mysterious "Master of Golden Calculation" who never shows his face appears among Bianjing's shops. Sailors on the Maritime Silk Road whisper rumors about a "ghost shareholder." Even when the court issues paper currency, an unseen hand from the future seems to be moving the abacus in the dark...

And when Li You finally returns to the modern era and pushes open the glass door of his Wall Street office...

An encrypted message from a thousand years ago quietly lights up on his computer screen:

"The Northern Song's first shadow accountant respectfully welcomes the helmsman home."
