Synopsis
The Great Qian Dynasty. The thirty-second year of the Zun’an era. The weather was favorable, and the empire enjoyed peace and prosperity. Having failed in his search for the path of immortality, Zheng Xiu had no choice but to resign himself to a mundane life. He poured his efforts into commerce, deciding to simply be an honest, unpretentious… wealthiest man in the realm. One day, Zheng Xiu was framed by his enemies and thrown into prison. Yet, it was there that he unexpectedly awakened his “Golden Finger” cheat. From that day forward, the entire tone and genre of this world took a massive, screeching hairpin turn.
