You Said We’d Start a Business Together, Not Become Mountain Bandits

【No System】【Some brains】【An unconventional way to make a living after transmigrating to the late Han】 A wage slave who lamented how unfair fate was transmigrates to the end of the Eastern Han dynasty and becomes Lu Yan, a poor scholar. At this point, less than two years remain before the uprising of Zhang, the man who will lead the people's revolt. To survive, Lu Yan's only apparent way forward is to follow in the footsteps of Emperor Zhaolie, joining forces with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to fight the Yellow Turbans and make a name for himself. But Lu Yan refuses. He wants to try something different. He takes his household servants up into the mountains and becomes a bandit, using the local mountain folk as his foundation. He lays low and grows his strength with modern ideas, then seizes the Yellow Turban Rebellion as an opportunity to go legitimate, carve out a territory, gather generals from humble backgrounds and renowned ministers and strategists, and hold a corner of the realm while watching the world change. When the time is right, he will lead tens of thousands of armored soldiers across the land, defeat the warlords, destroy the Sima clan, crush the northern tribes, and wipe out the Japanese.
