The Carefree County Magistrate: I Pick Up an Emperor from the Start

Chen Xiaochuan, a corporate drone, wakes up to discover he's transmigrated to the Great Zhou Dynasty and become the magistrate of a godforsaken, impoverished county. Seeing the gaunt locals and his colleagues starved to death, he flies into a rage! He rolls up his sleeves and gets to work! With a gift for sweet-talking people and knowledge far ahead of his time, he turns the dilapidated Taoyuan County into a paradise in just seven years! With flush toilets, paved roads, and barbecue stalls, life there is more comfortable than the emperor's. He'd planned to shut himself away, be a petty emperor, and enjoy a carefree life forever. But one day, a distinguished middle-aged man accompanied by an old servant makes a discreet visit and accidentally wanders into Taoyuan County, where he stares in amazement at the strange new inventions lining the streets.
