Hunter + farming + frontier + stockpile food and bide your time before claiming the throne + rebellion and conquest
The dynasty is nearing its end. The land is in chaos and famine.
Chen Shan transmigrates into the body of a bookish man who keeps failing his exams.
The original owner has just hanged himself.
As soon as Chen Shan opens his eyes, his family runs out of food.
A creditor blocks the doorway, threatening to sell his young sister to pay the debt.
At his most desperate moment, Chen Shan obtains a System that makes him stronger by killing wild animals.
Kill one hare, gain +3 Speed.
Kill one tiger, gain +28 Strength.
Chen Shan picks up a knife.
He breaks through the ice to catch fish and heads into the mountains to hunt.
While everyone else is so hungry they’re chewing tree bark, he hauls home wild beasts.
As he catches more and more game, his family’s storehouse fills with grain and meat.
He grows stronger and stronger, too.
Wait… chaos is about to erupt. I have food, people, and top-tier strength.
Maybe it’s time to make a big move!
There is no anger, no passion.
Very real, right to the taste
