AI Accompanies Me Through the Northern Song

Yin Bai, a modern-day thief, finds himself in the Northern Song, accompanied by a foul-mouthed, wisecracking AI System. He only wanted to make some money and lie flat, but his identity forces him to become a low-ranking county office runner. He expected the prosperous Song dynasty to be rich and picturesque. In reality, iron coins are too heavy to carry, clerical corruption is systemic, and the rules of officialdom are endless. As a barely literate man, Yin Bai must rely on his street smarts to navigate between the emperor, officials, and clerks, struggling to survive in a swamp of corruption. From exposing a grain depot scandal to making his way through the imperial court, every step puts him on the tightrope between human nature and the system. I hope this book will help you peel away the romanticized filter of Along the River During the Qingming Festival and see the real, suffocating reality of life in the Song dynasty. There is... no romance here, only the wisdom needed to survive! [Special note]: You don't need to check your brain at the door to read this book. I want to help everyone learn about the real Song dynasty. If you spot any problems, point them out, and we'll work together to make the story better!
