After transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty, he becomes Yang Xian.
The year is marked by Zhu Yuanzhang's northern inspection tour to Yangzhou.
He starts with a single chicken.
To avoid the tragic fate of being dismembered by five horses and executed by slow slicing at the hands of his own colleagues, Yang Xian glances at the rooster in his hand and, without hesitation, turns it into a pot of delicious chicken soup.
Zhu Yuanzhang: “If Yang Xian traveled over a hundred kilometers there and back overnight to buy a crowing rooster, that showed his resolve to govern Yangzhou. But risking my displeasure to kill the rooster and make chicken soup for the people proves that he truly cares about them. The next prefect of Yangzhou must be him.”
Yang Xian is completely dumbfounded, and is just about to refuse outright.
Ding! The Civilization and Technology System has arrived!
All right, this time I, Yang Xian, will truly govern Yangzhou!
