The Great Ming Empire: I’m a nobody, and I never dreamed that I’d transmigrate to the Ming dynasty, the era I’d been looking forward to for so long. Let’s go back three months. As someone with no education, my daily job was collecting scrap. Yes, you heard right, collecting scrap. Today, I finally filled a three-wheeled cart with it. I even fought some old ladies for cardboard boxes along the way. Those boxes were great stuff: pour in a little water and put it in the middle, and you could fool the guy at the recycling station. Though he was even more ruthless than me: he actually poured in cement. I saw him doing it one day when I went out for a piss after drinking. The place I live is a temporary structure put up by the neighborhood office, and even this has become an illegal building. In another three months, I’ll be homeless.
