After transmigrating, Lu Jin had a simple dream: use modern knowledge to become financially independent, then lie flat and enjoy life as a carefree playboy.
Unfortunately, there was always someone getting in the way of his freedom.
Playboys who mocked him? He stunned them with a business empire.
Rivals who tried to force him onto the battlefield? He crushed them with a technologically advanced army.
Powerful officials coveting his fortune? He used financial tactics to drive them into bankruptcy.
Before he knew it, he had become a marquis with power over the entire court, and even the emperor's most favored, Princess Chang'an, had become his number-one fan.
The worried old emperor asked, “My good subject, what is it you want?”
Lu Jin gazed at his fortune, worth more than an entire nation, and answered with utmost sincerity, “Your Majesty, I only want to live freely.”
