The protagonist, Zhao Xing'an, starts out kicked out of his clan, his moldy rice stolen, his home bare, and starving to the point of near collapse. After awakening the All-Encompassing System, he digs out his first handful of grain from a rat hole, discovers his first pot of gold from a beam in a dilapidated house, and finds his first base in the desolate mountains and valleys. What he hoards isn't just grain, but the confidence to survive in a chaotic world; what he builds isn't just a city, but the last refuge for the starving.
