Enquanto os aldeões passam fome, eu como carne e engordo minha nora
Zhao Zheng acordou de uma ressaca e se viu transformado em um velho solteirão de quarenta anos em uma pequena vila do antigo Império Da Kang. Seus filhos adotivos morreram em batalha, deixando duas noras recém-casadas. Acima dele, irmãos e irmãs cobiçavam sua herança, enquanto vizinhos tentavam intimidá-lo. Até sua própria mãe era parcial, favorecendo os outros. Havia ainda vizinhos mal-intencionados prontos para causar problemas a qualquer momento! Sobreviver já era difícil o bastante, mas então vieram anos de calamidades: seca, nevasca, enchente, epidemias... Nem mesmo o céu parecia poupá-lo! Felizmente, Zhao Zheng possuía um mercado de trocas universal, sempre ao seu alcance. No início, tudo o que queria era ser um simples proprietário de terras, contratar alguns servos e adquirir alguns hectares de terra. Mas, alguns anos depois, ao olhar para trás, percebeu que já estava no topo do mundo, tornando-se o maior latifundiário de sua era! Todo o império estava agora sob seu domínio!

Zhao Zheng jolted awake, his eyes snapping open.
Kneeling before his bed were two young women, their clothes tattered, faces sallow with hunger. They looked barely into adulthood, their figures thin yet naturally well-shaped—a little care would surely make them beauties.
Wait a minute!
What had they just called him?
Father-in-law???
Everyone knew he was single and never married, an eligible bachelor with no wife, let alone daughters-in-law.
At that moment, a surge of overwhelming memories flooded his mind.
In an instant, he understood everything.
Damn it!
He had become a billionaire at a young age, took the helm as the CEO of a publicly listed company, and just as life was getting good, he ended up transmigrating after a late night reading historical novels. Now, he found himself in the Great Kang Dynasty—a world closely resembling ancient China—inhabiting the body of a middle-aged widower with the same name, who had recently lost his sons.
The original host was nearly forty. A few months prior, both sons were conscripted by soldiers and became cannon fodder on the battlefield. The two young women before him were their yet-unwed wives.
Moreover, the original host's health was poor, and those two sons had been adopted with no blood relation.
