Chen Chengxiu transmigrates into a book and becomes the notorious Demon King of the Dan Kingdom. Unfortunately, this Demon King is the greatest martial artist under heaven, so everyone can only grit their teeth and keep quiet.
The Dan Kingdom enjoys peace and prosperity, but lacks books documenting the customs and local color of its various regions. Chen Chengxiu's task is to record the folkways of six distinctive regions of the kingdom and compile them into A Gazetteer of the Dan Kingdom.
However, the System provides only a meager starting fund. To raise enough money to travel to every region, Chen Chengxiu decides to earn a living as he goes, recording local customs along the way.
Renzhou is famous throughout the Dan Kingdom for embroidery, so Chen Chengxiu opens an embroidery shop and soon earns enough for travel expenses.
Xianzhou's porcelain is renowned throughout the world, so Chen Chengxiu joins the porcelain trade and, along the way, catches a porcelain thief.
Huzhou is a gathering place for martial artists. Chen Chengxiu teaches martial arts at a school, rescues people trapped during the dragon boat races, and earns a far-reaching reputation as a hero.
Daizhou is where the literati and aristocratic clans began. Chen Chengxiu studies the Six Arts at an academy and stands out in the prefectural examinations, far surpassing the other candidates.
The capital is prosperous, its streets crowded with carriages and horses, its jade towers and golden terraces, its palace halls adorned with osmanthus and orchids. Chen Chengxiu sits the imperial examinations there, then takes a post in the Ministry of Revenue. His capable administration leaves the treasury far better off than in years past.
Huizhou is remote and cut off from the rest of the kingdom, yet blessed with fertile fields, rich soil, tea, and emerald bamboo. Chen Chengxiu takes up the post of governor and uses what he has learned to build roads and bridges, connecting Huizhou with the other prefectures and counties.
Later, stories of Chen Chengxiu's deeds spread through every street and alley:
The noble Chen of Dan, whose footsteps crossed many lands.
In Renzhou, embroidery like the work of heaven; in Xianzhou, porcelain fired in cups.
In Huzhou, heroes assembled; in Daizhou, ink flowed thick and dark.
In the capital, he faced the emperor; in Huizhou, he built roads to open the way.
His name reached the court, his heroic fame spread through the martial world.
After many twists and turns, he completed his book, and the world learned of every region's wonders.
Content warning: A light martial-arts fantasy novel, set in an imaginary world. No historical research is intended. Please don't associate it with any real dynasty, place, or event.
Message: Take in the sights of the world and nurture lofty ambitions.
I think this court is really very simple, which makes people who have watched too many palace battles and political battles find it pragmatic and cute. .
It's quite fun. Although the plot doesn't have any ups and downs, it doesn't seem boring after reading through it.
Parrot King? This is hhhh
Everyone is familiar with parrots that can talk and buy things. They feel like they are watching a fairy tale.
I feel like this system is quite useless.
Ending: Spreading Flowers ∠※, the whole book is quite interesting, it has the feeling of a travelogue, plain but not boring, like "a long stream of water", great! Thumbs up JPG
I feel like the title is not attractive enough
Very interesting, click the paw
A little bit less, not enough, give it a try
