In Troubled Times, I Use the Dream of the Red Chamber Beauties to Empty the World’s Coffers

Qin Yuan transmigrates to the final years of the Great Zhou dynasty. From the start, he is condemned to death and exiled to a bandit stronghold run by women beside the Grand View Garden!

At court, the Six Villains hold sway. In the martial world, Song Jiang and Fang La lead rebellions. To the north, the Jin cavalry watches like a tiger poised to pounce, and the humiliation of Jingkang is just around the corner.

With a chaotic age approaching, everyone else is training hard and raising troops. Qin Yuan, however, has his eye on the peerless beauties of Dream of the Red Chamber and Water Margin!

Can't fight a war?

Lin Daiyu becomes a “master manipulator,” turning enemy father and son against each other with a few well-chosen words and pulling off a series of beauty traps!

No military funds?

Xue Baochai becomes a “top finance tycoon,” monopolizing the enemy's provisions and starving Liangshan's hundred thousand troops without shedding a drop of blood!

Wang Xifeng lends money at ruinous rates behind enemy lines and gobbles up land, setting Fang La's own backyard ablaze and bankrupting his entire army!

Pan Jinlian and Qin Keqing join forces, fighting tooth and nail for favor in the Jin imperial harem, and poison the entire court along the way!

Years later, when Song Jiang begs for amnesty with his battered remnants, and the Jin cavalry tries to ride south to pasture its horses...

They are horrified to discover that Qin Yuan's women have long since hollowed out the economy, military power, and even the enemy's imperial harem!

Cloaked in imperial yellow, Qin Yuan embraces his peerless beauties and sneers, “War is so crude. I schemed my way to this empire!”
