The masters of Qianmen never lie outright, but rather take advantage of the situation, the game, and the people's hearts to make those who join the game willing to give everything. In the book, there are shocking scams that stirred up troubles in the court, as well as clever tricks for making money in the marketplace; there are both reckless gamblers and the secret schemes of literati. Following the perspective of the last descendant of Qianmen, we will travel through the long river of history, dismantle the scam codes in official and unofficial history, and see how Qianmen evolved through the changes of dynasties and how to survive in the fireworks of the market. This is not only a history of the development of deception, but also a history of human relations and sophistication in Chinese society.
