[No System, no golden finger, political intrigue, business and management]
Chengdu, amid the chaos of the Five Dynasties.
Wang Yan awoke to find himself transformed into the “foolish, inept ruler who lost his kingdom” from the history books.
Powerful ministers were sharpening their knives. His family would be wiped out in six hundred days. He had no allies at court, no troops in the army, and no money in his hands.
Fighting head-on meant certain death, and waiting to die was for fools. His only choice was to survive by using his wits.
He opened a tavern by Wanli Bridge and turned a “Moonlit View Voucher” into 160,000 taels out of thin air.
He built a merchant network along the Jin River and used a single trade route to bring 30,000 frontier troops at Jianmen Pass under his control.
On the chessboard, there was no taking back a move.
He did not fight for the moment, but plotted for the ages.
Very interesting perspective. When reading Cai Dongfan's History of the Five Dynasties, I have always been curious about how Wang Zongyan's situation would develop if he were a normal person. The setting of this book gives some possibilities.
. It has strong authenticity and really reveals the warmth and warmth of the world, secretly obstructing and seizing power.
