【Dream of the Red Chamber fan fiction + feel-good power fantasy + soul transmigration + household intrigue + strong female lead + palace intrigue + comeback】
After working herself to death at the negotiating table, a top Wall Street mergers and acquisitions expert opens her eyes to find she has become Second Madam Lian of the Rongguo Mansion, Wang Xifeng, famed for her beauty and hidden strength.
Faced with unimaginable wealth and a crisis on the verge of bringing everything down, Lin Xiao, her modern name, smiles.
Save the Jia family? It is nothing but a doomed bad asset.
Fight over a man? Jia Lian is so worthless he is not fit to hold her shoes.
What she wants is to use this corner of the Dream of the Red Chamber to weave a business empire spanning heaven and earth.
From overhauling the household treasury and reforming the accounts to opening banks and monopolizing maritime trade, she uses modern financial methods to turn the ancient world into a game of capital.
At court, Prince Beijing Shui Rong sees her as “the most fascinating rival and ally”; far from the capital, the great merchants of Jiangnan call her “Madam Feng, who can turn stone into gold.”
Everyone thinks she is a power-hungry “tigress in rouge.” Only she knows that, amid the feudal rules that devour people, she is simply fighting to secure a future for herself and her daughter, one in which life and death, reward and punishment, are all hers to decide.
