Chu Ci closed and opened her eyes, and found herself a helpless orphan girl in the Wei Dynasty.
From the start, all she had was a barren mountain and dry fields.
System: In ten years, make the Great Wei Ranch the top-ranked ranch in Great Wei.
When you return, your influence and reputation can be exchanged for real-world currency at a rate of 1:100.
Chu Ci: ... Even if we take a step back, does it have to be me?
Do you know that when it comes to slacking off at work, I dare say no one can beat me?
System: Warning!
Succeed and you go home. Fail and you stay here forever!
Chu Ci scattered a handful of magical mulberry leaves into the animal pens, and the animals all lowered their heads to eat.
Evolution complete. Obtained a War God Black Chicken! Commands the flock, invincible in battle.
Evolution complete. Obtained a Beautiful-Coated White Sheep! Smooth, snowy-white, gleaming fleece.
Evolution complete. Obtained a Fit Black Pig! Tender, springy meat, rich but never greasy.
Starting out in Chuzhou with the ranch system, the Chu family ranch steadily rose to the top, expanding from restaurants, weaving workshops, and meat canneries to become the biggest warhorse breeding base in Great Wei.
North of Great Wei.
The chieftain of the neighboring Yue Ran tribe declared, "Ranch owner Chu Ci, you will always be a friend to Yue Ran!"
The top spy of neighboring Tu Nan sent word back home: "Chu Ci may become a major obstacle to our southward invasion. He must be killed!"
As the missions progressed, one day the people of Wei suddenly realized that everything in their daily lives, from food and clothing to housing and transport, depended on the Chu family ranch.
To honor the ranch's achievements, the Emperor of Wei personally inscribed a plaque: [The Number One Ranch in Great Wei]
Away from everyone else, she grabbed Chu Ci, her jaw clenched. "Stop stringing my royal younger brother along!"
What a heartless woman!
My next book will be a danmei novel. Please add it to your reading list.
The Calamity Beauty
In the new century, the mysterious arts flourished, and prodigies emerged one after another!
And you are the king of a different race, desperately searching for your missing people.
After scouring the entire world, you found only your younger brother.
He used to be a snowy, fluffy little ball who couldn't even take human form. He always toddled after you. When you stepped on him, he'd let out a babyish little chirp of pain, his eyes brimming with aggrieved tears.
Three hundred years later, you saw him again in the hunting exhibition hall of the mysterious arts world.
His tendons had been ripped out and his skin peeled away. His sharp fangs had been removed, and his snowy-white bones laid bare.
The delicate, exquisite skeleton of a rare beast gleamed with a cold white sheen, so beautiful that it left people speechless.
The hall was packed with noisy crowds. You stood before the transparent glass display case, gazing up at this perfect work of art in silence for a long time.

Three months later.
The second young master of a sword-cultivating family brought home a canary from outside.
The young man was stunningly beautiful, with gentle features and a soft voice. He spoke kindly to everyone, and his temper was unexpectedly good.
The prodigies sneered in disdain.
His spiritual power was weak, and he was frail and easy to bully. He was nothing but a useless pretty face, not worth a second glance.
Lin Shu smiled and agreed. They were right. In the world of mysterious arts, the most important things were to strengthen one's resolve and pursue power.
Later--
He sat above the clouds, resting his chin on his hand, looking bored.
Below him, people barked like dogs, fighting until they were bloody over him.
Some turned against their own brothers and drew swords, all to win a smile from him.
Some ruined their futures and willingly fell into the abyss, all to earn his favor.
Some wagged their tails and begged, abandoning every shred of dignity, all to get one step closer to him.
Even more of yesterday's prodigies crowded around his feet.
"Don't be afraid. It wasn't your fault!"
Lin Shu held a warm teacup, unconsciously rubbing his fingertips along its rim. "Really?"
The crowd below erupted with even greater fervor.
"Don't blame yourself!"
"Those bastards forced you into it!"
"I'll do anything for you!"
Lin Shu lowered his eyes, concealing the cold calculations deep within them and a trace of almost pitying mockery.
His languid gaze drifted over face after face, every one filled with pain, obsession, and longing.
I want the world of mysterious arts--
To know no peace, and drown beneath a flood.
Who should be the next sacrifice, another brilliant soul with a radiant heart?
Theme: Encounters and change can make life better.
Rouse, this is not the car going to the kindergarten (shy) Love it! Come more 😚
In fact, it's not impossible for Ah Ying to be the main wife and Makino Mei to be the concubine, hehe.
General Hei who ran away from home: I'm still very angry even after a fight. Why hasn't anyone come back to me yet?
It's so beautiful, come on!
Why do I feel like there aren't many female characters, so it's unlikely that the main characters will be a female protagonist and a group of males later on. 💔 The plot is quite smooth.
This Xiang Yi is a bit annoying, and the heroine didn't say anything.
Is it coming to an end? Teacher, I can't bear to part with this book. Every time I'm in a bad mood, I feel very happy when I read this book.
166 Teacher, why don't you come back for dinner?
Duan: Wadaxi, it's going to be auspicious today~
Is Xiang Yi what he is looking for?
