After transmigrating to the late Han dynasty, he becomes a refugee on the verge of death. Luckily, the Qiao sisters save him with porridge, and he joins the Qiao household as a guard.
With his innate strength and modern knowledge, he builds his fortune on briquettes, white sugar, and refined salt. He funds war through commerce, and crushes his rivals with a technological edge in a chaotic age: stirrups forged for heavy cavalry, gunpowder thunderbolts that shake Red Cliffs.
Rising from humble beginnings under Sun Ce's banner, he gathers talented men and fierce generals, and takes the Qiao sisters of Jiangdong as his wives. Zhou Yu entrusts him with his final wishes, Cao Cao takes an arrow at Huarong, and Guan Yu finds his way back to him at Maicheng.
From five counties in Lujiang to carving out territory and claiming a royal title, from relying on others to setting his sights on the whole realm.
The frost sugar from twenty-four years ago still leaves sweetness on the tongue, and the refugee of those days now ascends the throne with the Qiao sisters at his side.
The realm is a painted landscape, and I will bring the age of chaos to an end.
