No romance · farming and business · taking down scumbags · fleeing a snow disaster · detection System
Yun He, a detection specialist in the apocalypse, wakes up as a peasant woman who starved to death while fleeing famine.
The first thing she sees is her scumbag husband trying to sell their daughter for food?
She pulls a kitchen knife from her clothes and sends him on his way with a single blow.
Refugees and bandits are looting supplies?
What a coincidence. I’ve got my eye on your mule cart. Hand it over!
Someone maliciously reports her business and spreads rumors?
No need to panic. The first to arrive won’t be the authorities, but the funeral of the person who reported her.
The prefect is a corrupt tyrant who exploits the common people?
Then she’ll team up with her business partner, a woman disguised as a man, and knock off his official hat!
While others wait to die through the snowy famine years, she turns her fate around with a detection System.
Wild greens, medicinal herbs, grain, treasure, things buried underground or hidden in the snow: the System can pinpoint them all!
From a famine refugee widow with nothing to her name, Yun He rents a little courtyard, makes scented sachets, opens an herbal medicine shop, and becomes a celebrated businesswoman.
Reading notes:
1. Farming, business, building a career, and taking down scumbags.
