Modern-day workaholic Lin Hao had just stayed up all night finishing the client's nth revision of a proposal when his vision went black. He had transmigrated straight into the body of Lu Yi, an impoverished county magistrate in ancient times! Faced with empty coffers, bullying local gentry, and a seething populace, he found himself in a “hellish start.” His professional instincts kicked in at once: Local gentry causing trouble? Activate the crisis PR plan! Inefficient governance? Roll out KPI assessments and Gantt charts! Budget deficit? Get that investment pitch deck ready!
Just as the rundown county was starting to thrive, the bigwigs at the provincial seat grew restless. See how this most “unorthodox” county magistrate in history uses project management to straighten out the bureaucracy, Excel spreadsheets to analyze cases, and stunning PowerPoint presentations to impress the imperial court, as he races from petty official to the very pinnacle of power amid comedy and political intrigue!
This is absolutely fantastic! The plot is great, and it makes me want to keep reading until the very end. Honestly, this book is different; the more I read, the more I want to continue. It's so addictive! This novel is amazing, you absolutely have to read it! Ahhh!
Every character has a distinct personality, a unique fate, and an undeniable presence. Even the supporting characters are given moments of brilliance and room for growth. It's very well written; I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
