share time: 2026-07-02 12:31:31

Lin Chen, a modern office worker, time-travels to ancient China amid a deadly famine and becomes a starving beggar scholar. He awakens a max-level material system that lets him exchange for hundreds of millions of tons of supplies. Planning to lay low, he can’t stand seeing villagers starve and opens a granary. This alarms the capital—the aloof empress and saint arrive to accuse him of illegal grain release, but are stunned by the massive supplies. Witnessing villagers kneel in gratitude, they flush with shame, lower their dignity and beg him to spare more supplies for the people.
