After Du Jinshui dropped dead at her desk, she transmigrated into the body of an orphaned girl in ancient times. A great famine struck, and her family was so poor they didn't even have water to drink. Just when she thought she would die along with her adoptive parents, a letter arrived from Dongdu saying that her maternal grandmother had passed away and left her a dowry: a very large inn.
Delighted, Du Jinshui headed to Dongdu, planning to make money while taking it easy. But when she got there, she discovered the inn had been abandoned after the local government rerouted the road. It was nothing but a wasteland and a derelict building. Not only did no people come, not even small animals wanted to go near it.
Just as Du Jinshui was about to despair, she suddenly heard a voice: "New inn owner detected. The Inn Management System is at your service."
Du Jinshui's eyes lit up. With a System, she wouldn't starve to death here!
At first, Du Jinshui only wanted to avoid starving during the famine. She worked hard to upgrade the inn so she could exchange points for recipes, seeds, machines, and ancient technology in the Inn Management System's shop.
Unexpectedly, the inn's business kept growing until she became the dynasty's foremost imperial merchant. She even acquired a granary directly under the imperial treasury, truly reaching the pinnacle of success. All she had left was to marry a rich, handsome man!
Later, the court historian came to write her biography and asked Du Jinshui the secret to her success.
Du Jinshui humbly claimed it was luck. In reality, she thought: Obviously, in a famine, she had the cheapest rooms and the most filling food. She wasn't providing relief to refugees, she was building an army of fanatical followers. With eight hundred of them at her command, how could she fail?
