Transmigrated to Another World: I Made My Fortune Finding Wild Mountain Produce

Farming + a slow, steady pace + building a fortune + one-on-one romance

(The story is fairly short, but packed with substance and tightly plotted. It makes a good short novel.)

Su Yue, a modern woman, unexpectedly transmigrates into the body of a peasant girl in ancient times. Her family is so poor they can only afford a bowl of wild-vegetable porridge each day, her eldest brother is bedridden, and the taxes are crushing them.

They say to make use of what the land provides. Datang Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and she’s sure she can find a way for the family to prosper.

Before long, she turns the river snails the villagers can’t stand into a snack that sells out across the county, opening up a path to prosperity.

She transforms the wild fruits and medicinal herbs growing all over the mountains into valuable sources of income.

She makes taro that nobody wants into taro tofu, a hit across the county.

Her greedy neighbors scheme out of jealousy, and the county’s restaurants have ulterior motives. She has no heaven-defying golden finger, only a pair of hardworking hands and a clever mind.

See how Su Yue uses her modern know-how to lead her family in gathering wild vegetables, growing taro, and finding new ways to make a living, carving out a steady path to prosperity together.
