A touch of natural disasters + shopkeeping + lordship and construction + power fantasy
Lin Muqiu transmigrated into an adventure-fantasy novel she had written herself. Every season brought a different natural disaster, causing no end of trouble.
Luckily, as the Creator, she was bound to a max-level System and received a storage ring with Infinite space, allowing her to stockpile real-world goods.
The System expected her to store supplies and sweep all opposition aside, but instead she resolutely exchanged her resources for condiments, fish bait, seeds, and other goods, then went off to open a shop.
Lin Muqiu: I have no desire to be a big shot. I just love making money.
System: …Silence is tonight's Cambridge.
*
The System eventually discovered that she had saved the world after all.
But was this really the right way to do it?
Natural beast-tide disaster in other people's eyes: The ferocious beasts are terrifying!
In her eyes: A barbecue shop is the best! They'd be great for taming beasts, too.
Everyone: ?
Tidal disaster in other people's eyes: We'd be lucky just to survive.
In her eyes: I'm claiming this whole fishpond.
Everyone: ??
Glacier collapse in other people's eyes: It's over, run!
In her eyes: Perfect for watering my seeds.
Everyone: ???
Other people fought disasters. She made money +1 +1 +1…
Lin Muqiu: Don't ask. A big shot's world is just this simple and unpretentious.

One month later, the most popular restaurant appeared out of nowhere.
Three months later, oyster shops, seed stores, fishponds, dye workshops, and other basic facilities sprang up, completely transforming people's lives.
A year later, a prosperous little town had come into being. Its roads bustled with traffic and visitors, and it had completely escaped the discrimination it once faced from the nobility. Countless nobles came in person to seek advice, curious about what had enabled their esteemed lord to turn a run-down little town into a thriving city.
Lin Muqiu, meanwhile, simply shrugged and said, "Being a lord is just really profitable."
The System was beaten. Other people saved the world through misery and hardship, while she pocketed the profits from every kind of shop and got the townspeople working along with her until they all got rich!
Updated daily. The heroine is the strongest.
Coming soon: Scavenging on a Wasteland Planet [Construction]
After completing her transmigration mission, Lin Muqiu inherited Planet B31.
Thrilled, she decided to throw herself into the work and get filthy rich.
Then she landed in a garbage dump from the start.
According to everyone, the planet was a worthless little dump in the eyes of the world: heavily polluted and in desperate need of development. Other planets even treated it as a free landfill. If the locals protested, they got beaten up.
Lin Muqiu: What garbage? That's money lying all over the ground!
Townspeople: This is bad, my lady's gone crazy!
*
Just as the townspeople began to worry about Lin Muqiu's mental state, they discovered that her outrageous schemes kept coming, each one shattering their expectations
Wasteland everywhere in everyone else's eyes: The metal content is too high. Even plants won't grow here.
Lin Muqiu: Perfect for growing multifunctional metal! A great weapon for killing enemies!
Everyone: ?
Meteorite debris in everyone else's eyes: Extremely difficult to clear and a huge nuisance.
Lin Muqiu: Then collect it and save it for forging weapons!
Everyone: ??
The garbage processing plant in everyone else's eyes: Nothing but useless scrap metal.
Lin Muqiu: We can put the materials we've collected together and build you a deluxe mecha!
Everyone: My lady, please stop picking things up. You're scaring me…
*
The townspeople nervously wore their shoddy deluxe mechas, afraid their lord had gone mad or would give up and run away.
But they waited and waited, and Lin Muqiu never left. Instead, they grew stronger, their planet grew richer, and construction projects of every kind came together. Their infrastructure capabilities ranked among the strongest star systems.
Every time other planets dumped their garbage, she accepted it all, turned it into treasure, and sold it right back to them at a high price.
If they objected, the townspeople would put on their mechas and pay them a personal visit: Didn't you love dumping all that garbage? Hand it over, or we'll beat you up!
The planets that had once bullied the little dump cried with their heads in their hands: Other people steal money, but you steal garbage! Is there not a single normal person on your planet?!
Coming soon: Ruling a Territory at the End of the World [Construction]
After completing the construction mission in her previous world, Lin Muqiu entered the otherworldly continent of [Apocalyptic Disasters].
She discovered that a large number of people from Earth had also loaded into this world. They could return to Earth only by saving the otherworld's barren planet.
Lin Muqiu: You want me to do construction again? No way in hell…
System: I'll give you an SSS-grade Lord's Token, an SSS-grade Skill Card, and all the money and supplies you saved up in your previous world will go in your inventory. Once construction is complete, you can take them back to Earth or choose to stay.
Lin Muqiu, the miser: No way am I backing down.
*
And so she built a city-state, developed its infrastructure, upgraded the city, and established a utopian territory. The neglected land became extraordinarily prosperous, leaving everyone else envious. Things that had once seemed impossible became reality.
Only Lin Muqiu knew what it all meant.
The continent's natives: It means our lord is the best in the world!
The mecha beastfolk and other races: It means our lord is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she saved the entire continent!
The people from Earth: It means you're a cheater! We were busy managing shops, learning to cook, and trying to get on good terms with the lord so we could survive, only to find out that you were the lord all along!
Lin Muqiu, the lord with her own System, exclusive plotline, royal bloodline, and everyone's love, could only say: No, it means I'm a billionaire. Hahaha!
Everyone: …
Her reputation as a money-lover is well deserved.
Theme: A satisfying story about stockpiling, building, farming, and saving the world!

How can it be so simple to see the truth? In mind: There is only one truth (bgm sounds)
The wording is too archaic and doesn't sound like Western fantasy at all.
I feel like Kidro's relationship with the previous lord is more than just a mother-son relationship. Do you like her? After all, she is adopted.
The author hasn't updated in a month? Where are people? Don't be fooled. I finally found a good book and ordered it all (?? . ??)
"Arthur and Alex" really gave the author a big bug~ Linde
The ink is a bit boring, it would be nice if the SB father and son could just settle things neatly. I have dared to buy things secretly more than once. I feel a little bit unexplained when I look at it (no guidance, just suggestions)
This emotional line is so awkward.
There are so few people, and the articles are quite good.
