He transmigrated into a vast matriarchal world where men were inferior, women ruled, and society was rigidly stratified.
Most men who wanted to make their way in the world could only depend on the powerful, marrying into wealthy families to survive.
Lin Ye transmigrated into this world with no grand ambitions. He only wanted to set up a humble stall and earn an honest living, taking life as it came and refusing to attach himself to any faction.
But the more unconcerned and uncompetitive he seemed, the more convinced everyone became that he was an extraordinary master hiding among the common folk!
He set up a stall in the county town, with two stunning women at his side to shield him from every storm.
A single letter of special invitation from the provincial government made him the first street vendor ever invited as a guest. He attended the province's most prestigious merchant banquet, facing the contempt and provocations of its assembled nobles.
The province's wealthy magnates competed to befriend him, high-ranking officials bowed to seek his advice, and envoys from neighboring countries traveled thousands of miles to invite him by reputation.
Everyone speculated that he held world-shaking strategies in his hands and vast oceans of knowledge in his heart.
No one knew that the empress, who ruled the world from the distant capital thousands of miles away, had long been keeping a close eye on him in secret. She had taken a liking to him and was waiting for the chance to summon him to the capital!
The power, opportunities, and imperial favor that countless people dreamed of all came rushing to him, one after another.
Lin Ye could only sigh to himself:
I just want to make an honest living at my stall. Why does everyone in the world think I can stir up a storm at court?
The beginning is good, I hope the plot will get more exciting in the future!
