The Adopted Son's Road to the Imperial Examinations

Please add The Little Beggar's Road to the Imperial Exams to your reading list! The blurb is at the very bottom. Thank you for all your support, dears! ^O^

Blurb:

Wan Qingyun, a modern high school history teacher, was killed by a falling object while out buying groceries after work. Who could have guessed that he would transmigrate into a frail four-year-old boy, unloved by his father and despised by his mother?

His father doesn't care for him, and his mother can't stand him. She just wants to dump the burden, and in the end, he's passed off to his unpopular second uncle's family like a sack of potatoes.

His second uncle is spineless, his aunt is meek, and his three sisters are neglected because they are girls.

A tiny child with nothing but worries, lost and alone.

A tiny child takes one look at the bare walls of home and throws up his hands.

He looks at the fields and sighs.

Luckily, Wan Qingyun's beloved carving workshop came along with him.

Watch as a modern bachelor past his prime sells carvings, takes the imperial exams, and builds a career in ancient times.

P.S.:

1. Building a career comes first, making money second. There is a golden finger.

2. The setting is fictional, with plenty of original details. Everything serves the plot.

3. The beginning is a little frustrating, but many things will change later. This is an upbeat growth-and-leveling story.

4. There are foreshadowed plot points, so don't jump to conclusions. If it's not for you, please click away.

5. There is a female lead, but she appears late. There is little romance, and it is a one-on-one relationship.

Here is the blurb for the new story, The Little Beggar's Road to the Imperial Exams:

Lin Zhao, an interstellar agronomist, transmigrates into a little beggar who wanders the streets of Huai'an City.

The beggar boy, Xiaozao, was abandoned outside the city when he was just a month old. An old beggar found him and raised him until he was five, but after the old beggar died, Xiaozao had to beg for a living alongside the other beggars.

He drinks dirty water and eats leftovers.

A ruined temple is his home, and survival is his only purpose.

One day, while begging, Xiaozao is kicked into the air by a horse galloping past. The little boy loses his life. His only wish before he dies is to have a full meal, but fate has other plans.

Looking at the little beggar's tragic life, Lin Zhao can only sigh in exhaustion.

Fortunately, Lin Zhao's vegetable greenhouse base comes with him, and a middle-aged couple who make their living selling vegetables in the city kindly adopt him.

Treasure Chest, Little Chest Spirit: What about me? What about me, Host? Am I still your favorite System?

Lin Zhao transmigrates with his beloved vegetable greenhouse base.

With the base at his disposal, and his adoptive parents making a living selling vegetables,

he plans to help them grow vegetables, make a fortune with the greenhouse base, and enjoy a happy life lying flat.

He thought he had landed in a farming-and-business story.

Who knew that as soon as he transmigrated, he would be saddled with a System that calls itself the Treasure Chest Spirit?

The System says that once he becomes its Host, he can trade with the Treasure Chest by earning renown.

He can get anything he wants. The treasures he obtains can not only repair and upgrade his vegetable greenhouse base, but also take him to the top of the world.

The catch is that he has to study and take the imperial exams.

Lin Zhao, who was worked to the bone in the interstellar age, says: No way.

Isn't a happy life lying flat wonderful?

Wasn't being worked to the bone in the interstellar age enough? Does he have to keep at it after coming to ancient times?

So Lin Zhao refuses to bind himself to the Treasure Chest.

After the Treasure Chest Spirit threatens and tempts him in every way, Lin Zhao gives in for the sake of his beloved vegetable greenhouse base and its future.

Some time later...

Lin Zhao, expressionless: System, you promised I could get anything I wanted and reach the top of the world!

The Treasure Chest Spirit, pitiful and aggrieved: Xiaozao, you need to earn renown first!

Fine, fine, fine!

And so, Lin Zhao accidentally tops all six imperial examinations.
