Three-Year-Old Lucky Bundle: The Chief Minister's Father Reclaims Wasteland in Exile

[Adorable little darling + everyone's favorite + raising a child + building wealth]

Exiled from the start, former Chief Councilor Gu Heng is sent to the frigid far north, a barren wasteland where not a blade of grass grows. The only one by his side is his three-year-old daughter, Gu Yuanyuan.

Everyone expects the father and daughter to freeze to death, but Yuanyuan carries a little basket on her back and digs a century-old ginseng root out of the snow. Following a delicious scent, she even finds a top-grade matsutake!

She has no pocket dimension, but she does have a little nose that can sniff out treasure and a mouth that will eat just about anything.

When her wicked relatives try to steal their food, Yuanyuan slurps loudly in front of the guards. “Second Aunt says she isn't hungry, but she's hiding soy-braised beef in her shoe! I can smell the soy sauce!”

Gu Heng stops putting up with it and leads the exiles to reclaim wasteland, plant potatoes, refine salt, and build workshops.

The disgraced official transforms the desolate northern frontier into a prosperous land.

By the time the imperial court finally remembers the Chief Councilor it cast aside, he has already become fabulously wealthy and commands a mighty army, while Yuanyuan sits atop a mountain of gold, munching on a chicken leg.

But no one knows that deep in those barren mountains lies a secret powerful enough to change the dynasty...
