Rebuilding the Northern Song: I, Ximen Qing, Won't Be a Sucker

After transmigrating as Ximen Qing, the first thing he does is urge Wu Dalang to divorce his wife...

It's not that he's afraid of Wu Song. He just doesn't feel like being a sucker who follows the original story. The beautiful widows of Qinghe County, his spendthrift brothers, the sycophantic hangers-on... He'll reprice them all according to the rules of business.

But the real game is playing out in the north: the Jin army is about to march south, and the humiliation of Jingkang is just around the corner. Since Heaven made me this “villain,” I might as well do what villains do...

With the money, supplies, and manpower of the great Ximen, he'll get ahead of everyone and hack the Northern Song's dead-end game back to life, one stroke at a time.
