I Traveled Through Time and Became a Bankrupt Emperor, but the System Forced Me to Lose My Fortune.

Lin Xiaochuan, a modern social animal, accidentally traveled through time and became the emperor Zhao Qian of the fictional dynasty "Daqian". He was bound to the "Prodigal Subsystem" and was forced to squander the treasury silver every day, otherwise he would be punished with electric shocks. In order to save his life, he racked his brains to engage in various seemingly absurd wasteful behaviors: purchasing useless things from the people at high prices, building flashy spectacles, and paying outrageous subsidies to officials... However, due to modern thinking, he accidentally made a mistake: the purchase of "useless fodder" was actually high-yield sweet potato seedlings; the construction of a "stargazing platform" accidentally created a military observation system; the "absurd allowance" turned out to be the ancient version of the Provident Fund for Integrity. Amid the persecution of the system and torture of conscience, Zhao Qian's "prodigal" behavior inadvertently promoted agricultural innovation, improved infrastructure, and improved governance. In the end, he grew from a puppet emperor who was forced to spend money to a wise emperor who truly cared about the people and created a prosperous age. The truth of the system gradually emerged...
