[Novel blurb] This is a long story, so please don't blindly buy all the chapters.

Jiang Yan transmigrates as an actress mired in scandal. After reading the curses in her messages, she immediately announces her retirement from show business.

Staying alive comes first!

The very next day, she's informed that she can inherit a museum.

Jiang Yan thinks she's about to reach the pinnacle of life. But when she sees all the fakes in the museum, she can't bring herself to smile.

Her dream of getting rich shatters with a bang!

The cursed ring of Hirnwa, the Meng Ding cauldron from the 23rd year of the reign, Tutankhamun's wish cup...

Does she look like she never went to school? These all belong in major museums!

Jiang Yan is speechless. She plans to clean the place up and turn the museum into a bed-and-breakfast, only to discover...

The exhibits in her museum seem to be alive!

Upstanding citizen Jiang Yan decides to call the police, but a black cat stops her.

A mysterious call comes in: "Director Jiang, another batch of artifacts will be delivered soon."

Jiang Yan: It has to be legal!

Later...

The E-country Museum tearfully returns its animal-head sculptures, stipulating that they be donated exclusively to Jiang Yan's museum.

A murderous painting that has cursed more than a dozen buyers quietly returns to the country and turns up in the storage room of Jiang Yan's museum.

Her haters: Jiang Yan quit show business to run a fake-art market! Investigate her!

Museums everywhere: Thank you, Director Jiang, for working with us.

Top collectors: Thank you, Director Jiang, for saving our lives!

Historians: Thank you, Director Jiang, for giving us this research opportunity!

Haters: ?

As Jiang Yan watches her museum get busier by the day, she grabs the cat by its tail and growls, "If you don't help, I'm sending you to cat obedience school to get neutered today!"

#Director Jiang is exhausted again today#

#Director Jiang is taming the exhibits again today#

#Did Director Jiang take the blame for the artifacts today?#

Please note:

1. The setting is entirely fictional. Don't try to connect it to reality. The golden finger is huge, it's an easy wish-fulfillment story, and it even sacrifices a little logic for the sake of fun.

2. The male lead is set. The romance is minimal and vague.

3. The heroine isn't perfect. She has plenty of flaws and unpleasant personality traits.

4. There are lots of different background elements, and the pacing is slow.

5. The historical and artifact-related knowledge is partly based on references, but it also includes fabricated details. Readers who demand rigorous research should stay away.

[Upcoming novel blurb] My Whole Family Are Villains, but I Farm [The 1970s]

Before transmigrating, Shen Xi was an agricultural graduate student who spent every day bent over the fields. The only thing she had to worry about was whether the chickens belonging to the senior student next door would eat her "thesis" today.

After transmigrating, she has a pretty-boy father renowned far and wide, a stingy mother who pinches every penny, a brother who seems born to be a criminal, and herself, a broken mess.

Most importantly... What kind of decent person transmigrates with an experimental plot of land?

From then on, Shen Xi leads a "wonderful" life: persuading her family to turn back from the brink by day, and diligently working the fields at night.

Even the production team's oxen don't work this hard!

Fortunately, as she keeps farming, her pretty-boy father gets into a prestigious university, her stingy mother becomes a famous businesswoman, and her "criminal" brother racks up patents.

Shen Xi looks at her vast experimental fields and calmly pulls out seedless pomegranates, pitless mangoes...

Later, Shen Xi represents the national agricultural department at an overseas exchange.

A reporter asks, "Professor Shen, what made you so successful?"

Shen Xi's mouth twitches. "I have my family to thank."
