Darknet Emperor: I Raised Orphans in Ancient Times

In the seventh year of Yongjinghe's reign, natural disasters occurred frequently and taxes were like knives. Chen Mo traveled through time, only to find that he only had half a bag of coarse grains, a broken hut, and a cannibalistic world. There is no hope for the imperial examination, no foundation for doing business, and even a dead end as a soldier. It wasn't until he saw the orphans with no one to collect their bodies on the roadside that Chen Mo finally understood: The least valuable thing in this troubled world is human life, and the easiest thing to hide is human life. So he started from the back hill of Heishi Village, collecting orphans, establishing iron rules, building hidden sentries, and weaving dense nets. He doesn't go into battle to kill the enemy himself, but he keeps the officers awake at night. He does not serve as an official in the court, but he can make corrupt officials in prefectures and counties feel at risk. Ten years later, his informants were everywhere in Dayong. There are chess pieces he has buried in county offices, government offices, military camps, aristocratic families, and even deep palaces. All the officials know is that there is a mysterious dark web covering the world, but no one knows about it. It all started with a time-traveling scholar and a bowl of life-saving gruel.
