Reborn in Dunhuang: Farming and Trading in the Desert

[An alternate Han dynasty, Dunhuang and Yumen Pass, everyday life, farming and business, revenge and putting scoundrels in their place, a golden finger, no redemption arc.] Just after Shen Zhao was reborn at fourteen, someone pushed her into a ditch. She hit her head on a rock and nearly died. Luckily, she came to. Before the calamity of the future could happen, she hurriedly had her parents break off her engagement to the Qin family and avoid disaster. The Qin family is a pit of fire. Whoever wants to jump in can go ahead. Better yet, let Qin Yi and the woman he loves be together forever. After breaking off the engagement, Shen Zhao set about earning money to save her eldest brother. But making over ten thousand coins in such a short time was no easy task. Fortunately, she had a golden finger: she could buy secondhand clothes from another world and sell them here. Twenty coins bought a huge bundle, a truly lucrative deal. Before long, her family’s business kept growing. There were camels from the Western Regions and Dayuan horses, silk and porcelain from the Central Plains. She would carve out a world of her own along the Silk Road. With enough money, food, and weapons, even conquering the entire realm would be easy.
