Shen Lang transmigrates into the only son of the Grand Preceptor of the Great Qian Dynasty. Drawing on his past-life experience, he displays an extraordinary talent for investment.

He buys wasteland at a low price, only to discover the very next day that there's a mine beneath it.

A little side business he starts on a whim becomes the latest fashion in the capital.

Yet the Shen family isn't pleased in the slightest. Instead, they look deeply troubled.

It turns out that the Shen family's achievements have overshadowed the throne, arousing the emperor's suspicion.

To save his own life, his father orders Shen Lang to squander the family fortune and make himself look worthless, as the emperor commanded.

Shen Lang: Is this right, Father?

It's bad enough that you don't expect me to make something of myself, but why are you raising your son like a pig?

Faced with the reality that his entire family could lose their lives, Shen Lang gives in.

Just then, he activates the Squandering System: the more money he spends, the more his cultivation skyrockets!

He hoards haunted houses, collects junk, and organizes a useless-people fighting tournament. Everyone else thinks he's an absurd wastrel.

Who could have guessed that as he squanders away, Shen Lang quietly cultivates into a Tianyuan Martial God?

When enemy forces invade and the court officials all wait for the Shen family to be destroyed, he shatters the invading enemy with one punch.

When his father is caught in a dead end, a mysterious ancestor appears to save him.

But as his father excitedly kneels to offer his thanks, he looks up and sees his own son's punchable face.

The eldest princess, who was meant to break off her engagement, regrets it deeply, while the young princess secretly falls for him.

The whole world is baffled: You were ordered to squander the family fortune, so how did you end up a Martial God?

Shen Lang: I actually just want to be a good person. I don't know much about martial strength. What I miss most is the old days, when I could just make a few small investments...
