A modern state-owned enterprise executive and risk control elite died suddenly from overwork. He was reborn and traveled to the late Ming Dynasty in the forty-sixth year of Wanli (1618). He became Ziming, a young man from a low-level military household in Zhanhua, Shandong who was on the verge of starving to death and was doing corvee labor. At this time, the Ming Dynasty was rotten to the core: Saerhu was defeated, and all the elites in Liaodong were lost; factions fought endlessly in the court, nobles and noble officials evaded taxes, and annexed fertile land, leaving millions of refugees without enough food; natural disasters occurred frequently, bandits appeared everywhere, and just a few years later, Chongzhen committed suicide and the country fell. He worked step by step and started innovation from small steps: rectifying the order in the countryside, putting an end to exploitation by the evil gentry, and establishing a simple household registration and tax system; improving old-fashioned firearms such as flintlock guns and tiger crouching cannons to create low-cost, high-power rural armaments; relying on the strategic location of the canal, he started serious business, accumulated original capital, and built his own intelligence, logistics, and warehousing systems. After his power grew, he went out of Qilu, cultivated Dengzhou, managed Liaodong, and did business all over the world. Reform the corrupt military-industrial system of the Ming Dynasty and replace the backward official military system; implement a new tax system to break the tax-free privileges of the gentry; improve farming, popularize epidemic prevention, and eradicate famine among refugees; build a new and strong army to resist the Jurchens in the north, pacify the rebels in the west, and eliminate maritime troubles. In the later period, he restructured the underlying system of the Ming Dynasty as a powerful official, rectified the court officials, reformed the military and government finances, opened up overseas expansion and industrialization, ended the chaotic century of the late Ming Dynasty, saved the building from collapse, and allowed the poor and weak Ming Dynasty to escape the fate of destruction, usher in a new prosperous era when all nations came to the dynasty, and became a famous civilian minister recorded in history and remaking the world.
