Synopsis

From the start, he has a single copper coin in hand.

Can fishing bring up an auspicious omen?

Can selling fish land him a job with the Embroidered Uniform Guard?

Can he bring his firearms designs before the emperor?

From a beggar at the docks to a fishing gang strategist, then a covert agent for the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he eventually becomes Yongle Emperor’s trusted minister!

He improves firearms, establishes the Divine Engine Battalion, and builds an invincible fleet!

He outwits the grain transport gangs, schemes against the Eastern Depot, and even turns the Prince of Han into a pawn!

Step by step, he takes control of the Ming dynasty’s power, becoming the true mastermind behind the scenes!

“Your Majesty, this new cannon of mine has a range of three thousand paces!”

“Your Highness the Crown Prince, those socks of yours... perhaps you should let the princess wash them.”

“Lord Ji, will you write the evidence of your treason yourself, or should I make it up for you?”

He starts with a single copper coin and fishes up the tides of the world!

“Shen Mingyi, whose side are you on?”

“Your Majesty, I’m on... the winning side...”
