Transmigrating to Ancient Times to Be a Maid

Recommended: My friend’s novel "My Supermarket Connects to an Ancient City." Blurb: Modern university student Chu Xiaotian gets caught up in a messy family feud and ends up inheriting only a small supermarket. Who could have guessed that one day she'd discover her supermarket was connected to an ancient city?

Ding!

The Supermarket System has forcibly come online.

The System sets a monthly profit target for the supermarket, and the task must be completed. If she fails, the supermarket will immediately be forced into bankruptcy liquidation.

Twenty thousand in the first month, forty thousand in the second, eighty thousand in the third, and in the fourth month...

Chu Xiaotian looks up to the heavens and sighs. "I thought I was going to lie flat and enjoy retirement! This is clearly a miserable life of being crushed by KPIs!"

After taking stock, Chu Xiaotian realizes she's just an ordinary person: no technical skills and no business sense. Oh well, she might as well raise chickens the old-fashioned way. Livestreaming the sale of free-range chickens seems like a good option. Becoming a major chicken farmer will let her crush her rotten ex-boyfriend, too.

In the thirteenth year of the Great Yan, drought has plagued the northwest commanderies for over three years. Refugees pour in like a tide, and people are forced to eat their own children to survive.

Then an immortal descends from the heavens, bringing a series of gifts the people of that era have never heard of or seen before.

Injections to cure epidemics, filling sweet potatoes and potatoes, and the convenient food known as instant noodles...

The only catch is that this immortal has a peculiar taste for chicken and demands that the whole city switch to raising chickens...

Blurb: Huang Qi transmigrates one day and becomes Huang Qi, a hereditary servant in an official household in the Great Yu Dynasty.

At five, her father dies and her mother remarries, leaving her alone to make do in a courtyard. She doesn't get enough to eat or warm clothes, and on top of that, the governess beats and scolds her.

Fortunately, she'll soon be eight. Once she's eight, she can be selected to work in the household and support herself.

She doesn't ask for much, just enough food and warm clothes, and not to be bullied by anyone.

Then an electronic voice suddenly appears in her mind: The Maid System is online. Host, would you like to bind now?

The Maid System? What a... fitting name!

Huang Qi objects to the System's name outwardly, but her actions tell the truth: Bind now!

From then on, Huang Qi has a System. Years later, she becomes the most legendary maid of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Some say she's exceptionally clever with a photographic memory, and can tell genuine treasures and rare medicines from fakes at a glance.

Some say she's practically a genius at reading people's minds, rising from a lowly maid to the empress dowager's most trusted regent official.

Others say she's alluring and socially gifted, making countless princes and young noblemen fall for her.

When Huang Qi hears these rumors and is asked by her juniors for advice on how to succeed, she smiles without saying a word.

The truth is, succeeding isn't difficult.

First, you need to have a System.

Second, you need to learn some skills, such as identifying medicines, appraising treasures, cooking, medicine, calligraphy, music, painting, perfumery, needlework, mathematics, gardening, horseback riding, archery, martial arts, child-rearing, management, psychology, military strategy, farming...

PS: 1. The female lead has an official love interest, who appears fairly late.

2. New chapters are posted daily without fail. I'll take a day off if something comes up.
