The day Lin Xiao traveled through time and became a scholar from a poor family in the Liang Dynasty, he had only half a moldy steamed bun in his pocket.
Relying on his skills in chemically purifying coarse salt, he successfully bought a bankrupt soy sauce shop on credit.
He was selling "fresh soy sauce handed down from his ancestors" on the street, but because of its strange taste, he was splashed with dirty water by a neighboring shop in public.
Just when the shop was about to close down, he accidentally brewed distilled liquor one night and suddenly realized:
"Not only can I monopolize the entire liquor industry in Daliang, but I can also make everyone a debt-ridden slave."
The ladies of the capital were obsessed with the soaps and glass mirrors he invented;
The enemy's cavalry turned into powder in front of the high explosives he invented;
Even the most noble princess in the dynasty urges him to update his romance novels every day.
But when he built a huge business empire with hundreds of thousands of soldiers to dominate the world——
"Your Highness must choose between the position of Prince Consort and my million-dollar business."
So the next morning, the princess saw the same notice posted in shops throughout the capital:
"The consort Lin Xiao has gone to sea to found the country. All creditors, please queue up according to the stock number to receive dividends.
