Too Poor to Live with Dignity, I Have to Borrow Knowledge

In America, where steam and gears exist alongside poverty and extravagance, Joseph transmigrates with nothing in his pocket but a letter bearing Uncle Yule's address.

To climb the ladder step by step, he willingly (and unwillingly) signs a contract with Knowledge.

But Knowledge is no free gift.

Choose wisely, and reap a rich reward; choose wrongly, and the debt will snowball.

Everyone says knowledge is wealth,

but he knows that knowledge is debt, too.
