Reborn in a Year of Famine: One Divination a Day, and My Family's Mountain of Grain Never Runs Out!

In his previous life, during a famine, Lin Mancai watched helplessly as his parents died in a blizzard deep in the mountains, fighting over a bite to eat. His sister, so thin she was little more than skin and bones, breathed her last in his arms. He scraped by eating tree bark and clay. Even after earning a fortune, he could never fill the regret in his heart: in the end, he had failed to protect the people dearest to him. Then, in a twist of fate, he was reborn in the worst year of the famine! He opened his eyes in a humble mud-brick house. His little sister clutched half a black cornbread bun and timidly called him “Brother.” Tears welled in his mother’s eyes as she prepared to go hunting in the mountains with his father. [Ding! Host’s intense obsession detected. Daily Divination System activated!] [Great fortune today: A pheasant awaits in the northwest hollow behind the mountain. Go get it!] [Accumulate merit through good deeds to unlock accurate divination and turn misfortune into fortune!] He went into the mountains on a snowy day and used the System to catch a plump pheasant. One bowl of chicken soup warmed his family’s hearts. When greedy relatives came to steal their food, he no longer backed down timidly. He slapped his arrogant cousin’s son to the ground and silenced his uncle’s entire family, sending them packing in disgrace. During the famine, while others were starving and chewing tree bark, he fed his family meat at every meal, cleared land for farming, and stocked up on grain. Corrupt landlords, snobbish relatives, and unreasonable officials: if they dared stand in his way, a quick divination would make them suffer the consequences! Century-old ginseng, ancient treasures, lost secret recipes... With the System at his side, the world was his! In this life, he would not only make sure his family had enough to eat and warm clothes to wear, but also rise above the chaos and live like a man of distinction!
