Before Xue Ye Ling's death, his sick father was still alive, his uncle was forcing the treasury, the engagement was about to be canceled, and everyone in the house was waiting for the Shen parents' house to be in chaos first.
When Shen Yan opened her eyes from the most chaotic night in the Duke's Mansion, what she saw was not wealth, but empty warehouses, competing clan relatives, a shaky marriage alliance, and a hidden line of old border food that could drag the Shen family into the abyss.
If he wanted to live, he had to seal the treasury, check the accounts, save the sick father and the mourning hall, and then get back the people, money, food, and roads bit by bit; if he wanted to prevent the Shen family from being wiped out, he had to go out of the wealthy family and touch the rice prices, footwork, dental contracts, and officialdom in Tokyo; and when he followed the old accounts one after another, he discovered that the hole in the Shen family was just the first crack in the prosperous age of the Song Dynasty.
From the snowy night in Bianjing to Zhuangtian, Hebei, from the fireworks on the Bianhe River to the grain road at the border, from the family's bad debts to the national policies of the court, what Shen Yan has to do is not only to protect his family's status, but to fight for a way out for himself, his family, and this era before the world is about to be in chaos.
