Shu Ying, a dual master’s graduate in engineering and chemistry, opened her eyes to find herself an eighteen-year-old spinster in the Great Liang Kingdom.
Her parents tied her up in the woodshed and planned to marry her off to a butcher?
The rice at home was only for her younger brother, while she had to eat wild greens?
The three taels of silver from selling her off were going toward finding a wife for her ten-year-old brother?
Just because she was a woman, even starting a small business meant getting bullied?
If they favored men over women, then Shu Ying would show them that women were every bit as capable as men!
If this was how the world worked, then she would change it!
And so Shu Ying led a group of peasant women in brewing wine, weaving cloth, and doing business, all while enduring the scorn of those around them. In a world that put men above women, they built a commercial empire powerful enough to shape the fate of the realm.
The prince said, “I offer you the realm as my bride price. Will you be my empress?”
Shu Ying rolled her eyes. “How about you become my empress instead? I’ll offer you the whole world.”
