Transmigrating into the body of a useless playboy in the late Tang dynasty, he was nearly drowned to death from the start.
When he woke again, Nangong Mo broke into a cold sweat.
This impoverished family had nothing but the four bare walls of their home, and his upright official father was shouldering the burden for him.
To keep the family together, he decided to put his brain to at least a little use.
Make money: improve tea, monopolize Jiangnan, and take the business overseas!
Recruit talent: find a prodigy with a photographic memory to serve as a scout, save a down-and-out general to command the army, and make three visits to his thatched cottage to recruit the era's very own “Lu Ban”!
Build an army: make naval mines and cast cannons, then win fame across the land in the great Huaihai campaign!
All he wanted was to protect his little family in a time of chaos.
But the wheels of history came rolling in, forcing him forward, step by step, onto the supreme throne of an emperor!
