Synopsis

[A weak System and a slow pace, with frequent updates. Readers who prefer fast-paced stories should proceed with caution.] Two and a half years ago, a wealthy merchant surnamed Zhao bought the twenty-year operating rights to Qianfeng County from the imperial court for three hundred thousand taels of silver. To date, he has run up debts of more than thirty thousand taels of silver to neighboring Taiping County, along with a huge amount of supplies. Before Chu Feng, there had been nine others who took over the county. Some volunteered, others were lured into it, but every one of them was eventually executed when they could no longer repay their debts. [Host, this is your starter reward. Bid one coin for Qianfeng County and become its county magistrate.] “My lord, please return to the county office.” Master Jia pushed open the gates behind him. A poor, mournful breeze carrying two and a half withered leaves swept straight toward Chu Feng. Peeling pillars, rotten wood, cracked floorboards, broken window frames, a courtyard overrun with weeds, and a dry well covered in moss... Chu Feng rubbed his eyes, then raised his hand and slapped himself. “No, this can't be right. I must be seeing things.” “How could a county office be this poor? I must have seen it wrong.” Just then, a starving rat, reduced to skin and bones, slowly crawled out of a hole in the wall. The rat struggled to lift its head and glanced at Chu Feng. It staggered a few steps, then collapsed.
