Great Ming: From the Start, I Built Flintlock Guns and Shocked the Yongle Emperor

Li Yi transmigrates to the Ming Dynasty.

From the start, he inherits his late father's weapons shop.

Before his father died, he told Li Yi that he had taken a large order from a band of horse thieves and needed to make thirty hand cannons.

One day, the Yongle Emperor hears that privately manufacturing weapons for profit has become widespread, so he goes on an undercover inspection.

When the Yongle Emperor pushes open the door, Li Yi thinks the leader of the horse thieves has arrived.

"Brother, I couldn't make the hand cannons, but I did manage to make a few flintlock guns. Want to try one?"

After witnessing the flintlock's power, the "bandit chief" is astonished and often comes to ask Li Yi some strange questions.

Things like how to defeat the Tatars, govern the Oirats, and take Turpan back.

Li Yi thinks this "bandit" might be planning a rebellion.

Until one day, the "bandit" transforms and says, "Brother, do you still recognize Your Majesty?"
