Great Ming: The Ultimate Scammer, Scaring Cao Zhengchun from the Start

In the final years of the Hongzhi reign, undercurrents swirled through the imperial court.

Lu Lin transmigrates into the body of a low-ranking constable in the Six Fan Gate, only to discover that his father’s killer is none other than the all-powerful head of the Eastern Depot.

Faced with an overwhelming gulf in strength, Lu Lin awakens a money-spending System and embarks on a wild path of “proving the Dao through staged accidents”!

You say Cao Zhengchun of the Eastern Depot has indestructible Tiangang energy?

Lu Lin charges in and slams into him. “Ow! Governor, your internal force rebounded and broke my ribs (it didn’t). Pay up!”

You say Iron Gallant Divine Marquis Zhu Wushi is a paragon of honor?

Lu Lin lies down at the entrance to the Dragon Guard Villa. “Divine Marquis, your guards look so fierce they scared me into qi deviation. You can decide how much to pay for my medical bills!”

Even when the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao leaves the palace in disguise, Lu Lin stops him:

“Sir, you stride like a dragon and tiger and stepped on my ant. It was my pet, so you’ll have to pay extra!”

The officials of the court call him shameless, but Lu Lin counts money until his hands ache, while his strength skyrockets.

Then, one day, on the summit of the Forbidden City, his enemies reveal their hidden daggers and try to kill him to silence him.

Lu Lin calmly opens the System panel and looks at his balance, rich enough to rival a nation.

“I was going to get along with you as an ordinary person, but you just had to push me.”

“System, go all in! I’m taking on ten of them!!”
