When the Seven Warring States Decided to Divide Up Earth

I, Feng Hao, was a rich second-generation heir in the twenty-first century who chose to lie flat. Then I transmigrated to the Warring States period, and Heaven treated me well: it handed me the entire human technology tree in one go.

Looking at my golden starting hand, I remembered the tragic fates of those reformers who came before me. Help Qin? Please. Even Shang Yang was torn apart by chariots in Qin, and Zhang Yi had to leave. There was no way I was going to work for someone else!

Then it hit me: this wasn't a fight for survival in chaotic times. It was Heaven giving me seed funding! The Warring States period was Feng Hao's startup incubator!

Gunpowder was my flagship product; maps were my business plan. I held a product launch at Hangu Pass and stunned everyone. My goal wasn't to conquer the Seven Warring States, but to take them overseas with me and go global!

Over five hundred years, my family business expanded at a breakneck pace: defeat and acquire the Persian cavalry, take a controlling stake in the Aztec Empire, flatten rainforests with steam engines, and brainwash the world with radio waves!

When my eighteenth-generation CEO, Feng Guiyi, upgraded the company into the Heaven's Mandate Empire and monopolized the market on Earth, we dug up a letter of intent for an acquisition from Orion on the Moon.

Feng Guiyi sat in the chairman's seat aboard the Feng Hao starship and smiled. "Notify every civilization in the Milky Way: a new round of commercial mergers and acquisitions is beginning."
