Farming + monsters + comedy + no romance + slow-burn slice of life + healing
Li Li and her family's little convenience store are transported to a monster village through the Demon-Identifying Manual.
The monsters aren't impressed by this strange little shop.
With no other choice, Li Li works tirelessly, planting rice seedlings and tilling the fields just to survive.
The village chief gives her an order: she can stay only if she makes the monster village prosperous.
Li Li works herself to the bone, leading the villagers in building greenhouses, cultivating superior crops, and holding family competitions, but the results are still a drop in the bucket, nowhere near the target.
In the end, she realizes that developing the service industry is the way forward.
In less than half a month, monsters are crowding into Li Li's convenience store. More than a dozen of them fight over each item, while Li Li lounges in her rocking chair and says, “You all want it, so who should I sell it to? Here's an idea: let's auction it off. Highest bidder wins.”
Overnight, apartment blocks, restaurants, casinos, inns, bathhouses, taverns, and countless other businesses spring up across the monster village. Its economy shoots to the top.
Li Li barely gets to enjoy her good life before the monsters start clamoring to make her the next village chief.
All Li Li wants is to save enough money for a comfortable retirement. How could she possibly handle being village chief?
Li Li: “No thanks. I'd be happy if you all would just support me in my old age.”
