The Magistrate's Life of Cheating

[No brainless protagonist] + [System novel] + [Political power struggles] + [Building from the ground up]

A thrilling power fantasy built on intellectual dominance. The protagonist, Gu Qingshan, used to be a construction-site safety officer in his previous life. He transmigrates into the body of a candidate in a poor county, bringing along a sharp-tongued System that can spot loopholes in the rules. He’s trapped in a death game from the start: his escorts plan to kill him to silence him, the local gentry are waiting to enjoy the spectacle, and the common people are being treated as living sacrifices. But he doesn’t panic. He pores over the laws, finds a loophole, and shuts the entire hall of gentry up with a single speech.
