Transported to a Famine Year: While Others Beg, I Grow Money

[Alternate History, Wild Ideas, Farming, Comeback, Feel-Good, Everyday Life]

Du Chen transmigrates to Zhuyuan Village in ancient times, during a year of drought.

When he wakes up, he has gone from a bachelor to a strapping man with a wife and child.

It would be bad enough to become a father without getting to enjoy the fun of getting married and having a baby.

To make matters worse, his predecessor had a terrible temper and a dreadful reputation in the village. Even after two years of drought, he had failed to prepare for hard times and still loved drinking and gambling.

Looking around his empty home, Du Chen really wanted to bash his head in and transmigrate back to the modern world.

Fortunately, he has a magical space where anything he plants will grow, as well as a warehouse with unlimited storage.

Plant one sack of grain, and five hours later, harvest eleven sacks.

Plant one egg, and six hours later, harvest eleven eggs.

What about silver, then?

Of course he can harvest silver, too.

Du Chen not only improves life for his own family, but for his entire village and the neighboring villages as well.

A foolish emperor takes the throne, and political chaos ensues.

Seeing that Du Chen has amassed a fortune, someone slanders him, claiming he intends to rebel.

“Hah! Are kings and generals born to their stations? Then I, Du Chen, will rebel for real!”
