[Late Ming Dynasty, no System, political intrigue, conquest, ruthless battles, passionate, Zhu Youjian]
A modern businessman down on his luck transmigrates to the end of the Ming Dynasty and becomes the Chongzhen Emperor.
With the Great Ming teetering on the brink of collapse, I'll become a bomb disposal expert, eliminating one destabilizing threat after another and forging a commercial and technological empire that will endure for millennia.
Wei Zhongxian: Chongzhen brat, I'm a coward, but you're the real ruthless one. What a shame about my money!
Donglin Party: Damn, you're even better than us at using others to do your dirty work!
Li Zicheng: That's not fair! I haven't even had time to farm and level up, and you've already maxed out your gear and killed me in one hit!
Jurchens: I want to report the Great Ming. They've got God's-eye view cheats! How am I supposed to fight them?
Xu Guangqi: Your Majesty, why do I get the feeling you really understand technology?
Korea: Sseumida, I'm your most loyal little brother! How can you leave me to die?
Japan: My god! Is this really the Great Ming whose technology and culture I've studied for centuries?
The West: We must oppose your hegemonic ambitions!
Chongzhen: What are you all making a fuss about? When you get a seat at the table is up to me!
