The main story is complete. My next story is "The Spirit Pearl of a Doomed Villain Just Wants to Be a Layabout."
One day, Lin Jiao transmigrated into the nonexistent Qi Dynasty from history and became a poor bookseller in ancient times.
She couldn't sell enough books to pay the shop's rent, and a local bully had his eye on her, demanding that she sell herself to pay off her debt. Her competitors were waiting to swallow up her Lin Bookshop, and the townspeople came to cause trouble every now and then.
To survive in the vast capital, Lin Jiao had no choice but to use modern marketing techniques to promote her books.
Before long, the literati of the capital were all recommending Lin Bookshop. Storytellers used its storybooks, and peddlers loved going there to buy illustrated collections.
From then on, the bully left the capital, her competitors were swallowed up, and nobody dared to provoke the proprietress of Lin Bookshop again.
Everyone in the capital praised the lucky-draw events and writing contests held by Lin Bookshop.
Lin Jiao also opened a chain of bookstores in different regions and launched a magazine with advertising services. Merchants could pay to advertise their products and shops on the backs of books.
Before long, Lin Jiao had become the Qi Dynasty's biggest advertising merchant, rich enough to rival a nation and sought after by wealthy merchants and powerful nobles.

When the great general Wu Feichen returned victorious, the young women of the capital tossed him handkerchiefs to show their affection.
But his gaze fell on Lin Jiao, sitting with one leg crossed on a willow tree and eating a peach.
Lin Jiao waved to him, and he went over and caught her in his arms, taking out a handkerchief to wipe the peach juice from her mouth.
Only much later did everyone learn that Wu Feichen had once been a hired thug Lin Jiao picked up on the street. They had been together for a long time.

Wu Feichen: "Jiaojiao, you taught me to read and gave me my name, so I belong to you."
Lin Jiao: "You're always talking nonsense."
Wu Feichen: "You're right, my wife."
Content warning: The female lead is not traditionally kindhearted.
-----Upcoming story blurb-----
"The Spirit Pearl of a Doomed Villain Just Wants to Be a Layabout"
Song Xiao transmigrated into the treasured Hui Ling Pearl belonging to the villain of a xianxia novel. She acquired a strange Spirit Pearl System, or rather, a Layabout System.
The System tells her that if she can lie down, she shouldn't stand, and she mustn't tire herself out, lest it affect her absorption of spiritual energy.
So while everyone in the sect gets up before dawn to practice, she sleeps until the afternoon. While everyone else fights tooth and nail to enter the secret realm, she heads to the nearly empty dining hall to grab a meal.
Everyone thinks Junior Sister Song is lazy and has low cultivation.
But when the sect is attacked, Junior Sister Song produces a grand mixed-origin formation that covers the entire sky, scaring the enemies half to death.
Good grief, Junior Sister Song is a rare formation cultivator!
Chu Fengche is a gifted prodigy admired by everyone in the immortal sects. He's handsome and powerful, and a source of pride for the sword cultivators.
He also has a Hui Ling Pearl that can absorb spiritual energy and help increase his cultivation.
The trouble is, the pearl's incarnation is a girl named Song Xiao. She's extremely pampered, can't endure any hardship, and gets frightened easily. If she becomes sad or upset, it affects her ability to absorb spiritual energy.
With no other choice, he has to serve her delicious food and drink and come up with all sorts of ways to make her happy so he can improve his cultivation.
He's so careful with her that he worries she'll melt if he holds her in his mouth, or break if he holds her in his palm. He treasures her dearly.
Later, the pearl says she doesn't want to stick with a villain who has no future and runs away...
**
Years later, everyone says Chu Fengche is a cold-blooded executioner.
Nobody knows he only wants to keep the woman he loves by his side forever, so she'll never be able to escape.
Premise: Think things through, and even a layabout can turn things around and get rich
I really like this genre, please give it a thumbs up to the author.
Update soon, please give the author a boost
The fact that the male protagonist is good at fighting means he is in good health, so why didn't he find a place to work before?
Spread the flowers, spread the flowers, spread the flowers, spread the flowers
I can't stop after reading this, I will update every day ~ at your own pace, my wife is definitely the best ~
(ゝω??★) Front row, come on
Finished it~ This book is great. After reading the whole book, I feel that the plot setting is good. Unfortunately, the details of the story are too simple, and the writing style needs to be improved. I don't like the setting of the important characters a bit. Everyone has a despicable side, and it's a bit uncomfortable to put too much disgust on the main character. The relationship between the male protagonist and the second male protagonist towards the female protagonist also develops very suddenly, jumping directly from disgust to love, and then immediately to caring and deep love. Then the male protagonist became a general directly after fighting a battle, and the emperor who was still able to seal the title was afraid of being crowned king and returning to his fields. This is very unreasonable. Overall, I can keep watching it for the sake of the plot. I will try to improve other aspects in the future~~
"Pan Cuier and Qiao Yuanqing escaped poverty by writing books", which should be "get rid of"
"I don't want to fight? If your Majesty doesn't harm me," it means "fighting".
"The Linji Bookstore is busy working and making money every day, but the Wenhua Street side is already exhausted." Yang Huai's bookstore should be "Suzaku Street"
