Chen Yuan never expected to transmigrate to the turbulent forty-fifth year of the Wanli era in the Great Ming, only to become a useless second-generation heir!
Was he supposed to laze around until he and the Great Ming were both finished thirty years later?
Luckily, times had changed!
Huang Taiji, Tokugawa Hidetada, Philip IV, and the rest: “Our subjects are all gifted singers and dancers.”
They had to be! They couldn’t beat the Great Ming, and they owed it a mountain of silver…
Wei Zhongxian and the court officials: “Duke Yuan deserves the honorific title of Nine-Thousand-Year-Old.”
They had to give it to him! The treasury and the lot of them owed him hundreds of millions of taels…
The common people of the Great Ming: “Why do we support Duke Yuan? Because following him makes us rich!”
Yes, it has been adapted into a short play, but the book is better than the short play😄
I've read it and praised it.
