"Your Excellency, the Minister of War has sent a letter asking you to register his household in Ping'an Village, Ping'an County."

The magistrate of Ping'an County: "Huh?"

"Your Excellency, the Minister of Works has sent a letter saying he hopes you will register his household in Ping'an Village, Ping'an County."

The magistrate of Ping'an County: "Huh?"

"Your Excellency, the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard has sent a letter asking you to immediately register thirty members of the Guard in Ping'an Village, Ping'an County."

The magistrate of Ping'an County: "What?"

"Your Excellency, a secret letter from His Majesty commands you to register his household in Ping'an Village, Ping'an County at once."

"Your Excellency? Your Excellency! Someone, help! The magistrate has fainted."

"I'll bundle these dozen or so buildings together for five million. Anyone willing to take the job?"

The construction foremen all shook their heads. With workers' wages so high these days, what could you possibly earn from five million? No, thanks.

Shen Xianxian quietly took the job. Heh heh, your workers' wages aren't the same as my workers' wages.

"Finish paving this road within half a month, for ten million. Anyone willing to take the job?"

The construction foremen shook their heads. Half a month? That would take five hundred people working around the clock. Where could they find that many workers on such short notice?

Shen Xianxian quietly took the job. Heh heh, workers? The one thing I have plenty of is workers. Come to think of it, why does Ping'an Village seem to have more and more people?

Here's a preview of my next novel. Please add it to your collection: "After My Thoughts Were Heard, My Whole Family of Cannon Fodder Gave Up and Did Nothing"

Jiang Xi blew herself up in the final battle against the zombies. When she woke up, she discovered she'd become a little toddler.

Her family was rich, her parents were loving, and her older brother and sister got along well.

Just as Jiang Xi thought she could finally lie flat for the rest of her life, she discovered she hadn't been reincarnated. She had transmigrated into a book.

In the story, her whole family met a gruesome end.

[Hey, Dad, you look so smart and handsome. How did you turn into a lovesick fool? You only care about your sweet wife and young son. You thought giving up your family's company would bring harmony to the family, but they still didn't trust you. They schemed against you and killed your whole family.]

[Wow, Mom is so radiant and elegant. What a pity she was kidnapped and murdered, and they never even found her body.]

[Oh, how could my gentle, refined older brother get into a fight with those thugs? He was stabbed to death in the street the day before he turned eighteen.]

[Ugh, is this my villainous big-shot older sister? She looks so gentle. Who would have thought that after the second male lead sold her off, she'd manage to save herself? Then she not only killed him, but took out the third male lead and the heroine too. The hero was lucky, or she probably would have killed him as well.]

But how was she supposed to warn them? Jiang Xi furrowed her brow and clenched her little fists. She had only lived to the age of three in this life. If she told them the truth before then, they probably wouldn't believe her.

What? Their daughter/little sister was only going to live to three? Who did this? The Jiang family members exchanged glances. They had thought that yielding first would let everyone live in peace, but those people had gone too far. If that's how they wanted it, then they had only themselves to blame.

As Jiang Xi watched the family business grow bigger and bigger, her parents grow ever more loving, her brother join a research institute, and her sister become a domineering CEO, she couldn't help feeling confused. Had she really not transmigrated into a book?
