I Called Off the Engagement and Dropped the Act: I’m the Poetry Immortal You’ve Been Looking For

Ning Wuyang unexpectedly transmigrates into the body of a notorious good-for-nothing despised by everyone in the Great Xing Kingdom. His family is hardly wealthy, he owes a hundred taels, and could end up on the streets at any moment. To top it off, his fiancée looks down on him and is waiting to break off their engagement. No need to panic. He sells a few poems to get through the crisis, then ends the engagement and starts a small business that brings in a fortune every day. He gives his whole family a life of comfort and plenty, enjoying a modest but carefree existence. But when he accidentally blocks someone else’s path to riches, he is forced to build his business into an empire, eventually becoming a man who can shape the future of Great Xing. Caught up in the struggle for the throne? No problem. Whoever I take a liking to will be the next emperor. A foreign tribe invades at the height of the kingdom’s prosperity? Nothing to fear. I’ll forge fine steel, build a mighty army, and strike right at their homeland. He will keep this golden age peaceful and tranquil, strolling through life with his beloveds as they watch the clouds drift by. Anyone who tries to ruin it will be knocked down!
