Qin Feng was a workaholic in his previous life, a star delivery rider and marketing genius for the “Starving Yet?” platform. But on the final day of his push to earn a perfect-attendance bonus, he died a hero while saving a brat who darted into traffic.
When he opened his eyes again, he had transmigrated into a penniless scholar with a house bare as a bone and debts piling up.
From the start, all he had was a bowl and three taels of silver in debt. His only asset was the xiucai degree his original host had earned before starving to death.
Faced with ruthless loan sharks and steamed buns so hard they could crack his teeth, Qin Feng asked the question that came straight from his soul:
Where’s the System? Where’s my golden finger? What happened to all those promised perks for transmigrators?!
The only reply was the rumbling of his hungry stomach and the creditors’ cruel laughter.
With his back against the wall, Qin Feng rolled up his sleeves.
No matter. His greatest golden finger was the business savvy honed by years in the cutthroat modern marketplace!
No platform? I’ll build one myself!
No couriers? I’ll recruit thugs and beggars!
No merchants? I’ll give them a sales pitch they can’t refuse!
“Spend-and-save deals,” “share to earn coupons,” “targeted recommendations powered by big data”… With one combination after another, he turned the entire food industry of the ancient world upside down.
From “errand running and shopping” to a “food delivery platform,” from “supply chain integration” to “brand incubation”…
While his competitors were still trying to figure out how he could afford to discount, Qin Feng was already experimenting with “presale crowdfunding” and “cross-industry collaborations.”
When powerful clans tried to crush him with their influence, they discovered the greatest patron of all stood behind him: Prince Xiaoyao, whom Qin Feng had lured in with promises of “stock options” and “going public.”
Even when the emperor took an interest in his “delivery empire,” Qin Feng was already thinking about how to use its power to make it easier for everyone in the land to earn a living
