[No System, no cheats. Trapped between the cracks of a chaotic age, he relies on pure strategy to overcome every crisis!]
Transmigrated to the chaotic transition from the Ming to the Qing, he is schemed against by his own clan from the start. His clansmen force the daughter of a governor's aide to frame him, while his immediate superior secretly lays a deadly trap to take his life!
Surrounded by danger on all sides, everyone is certain Cao Changhe is doomed.
But he breaks through one crisis after another and rises against the odds!
On the first day, he stakes a thousand mu of fertile land to seal an alliance, joining forces with the brilliant daughter of the governor's aide to put an end to his clan's greed for his family fortune.
On the second day, he draws on her father's standing in official circles to narrowly escape a lethal trap.
On the fifth day, he turns the tables and sends his treacherous superior to prison.
On the tenth day, he confronts his enemies head-on in court, cowes the prefect's confidant, and forces the officials to promote him!
In just twenty days, Cao Changhe's infamous reputation has spread throughout the city. People privately curse him as ruthless and greedy, nicknaming him “Cao the Yama King.”
From the imperial court to the provinces, everyone sees him as a corrupt official who curries favor and schemes for power.
No one knows that every coin he extorts is being used in secret to weave a vast web: stockpiling provisions, forging weapons, and winning over men of honor as he quietly takes root and builds his strength.
He lies low in the sea of officialdom, advancing carefully, wearing infamy as armor and wielding political cunning as a blade.
When the winds of change finally rise, everyone who bullied, harmed, or trampled him will bow their heads and kneel to repay their debts!
