Chapter 2: Starting with unlimited white porridge and pickled mustard greens (Seeking collections, flowers, and reviews)

~5 min read 879 words

The sixth year of Zhongping, the eleventh month of winter.

Yangzhou, Guangling Commandery, Jiangdu County.

"Sigh, this chaotic world. Why did you let me come to this chaotic world!"

At this moment, in the backyard of the Jiangdu County government office, a young man who looked no more than twenty years old sat on the steps and sighed to the heavens!

The young man was named Lin Yang, and he was a transmigrator!

Upon waking up, he found himself in this chaotic world!

Having merged with the memories of his predecessor, Lin Yang felt exceptionally depressed!

His predecessor had originally been a scion of a noble family!

But because his father and elders had died early and the family fortunes had declined, he had exhausted the family wealth just to obtain this current position as the County Magistrate of Jiangdu!

And then!

As luck would have it, only a few months after becoming Magistrate, he encountered the Huang Jin bandits besieging the city!

Thousands of Huang Jin bandits had surrounded the county seat for a month!

Now, within the entire Jiangdu County, there were fewer than five hundred soldiers capable of fighting, and the grain in the granary could only last for two more days!

If it weren't for the fact that the Huang Jin bandits lacked siege equipment!

The gates of Jiangdu County would have long since been breached!

Upon learning the news, his predecessor had simply been unable to catch his breath and had passed away on the spot!

"Sigh, a disastrous start. There's no way to play this!"

Gazing at the sky for a long time, Lin Yang could only shake his head!

In this situation, he didn't even have a chance to run away!

Outside, there were nothing but Huang Jin roving bandits!

Running away at this time was simply courting death!

As for asking for reinforcements?

According to his predecessor's memories, the reason the Huang Jin roving bandits near Jiangdu County dared to be so bold as to besiege the city!

Was precisely because the Guangling Commandery Governor, Zhang Chao, had withdrawn most of the troops and grain, which had caused this situation!

A large number of government troops had left Jiangdu County with the grain!

This had caused the defensive strength of Jiangdu County to be instantly weakened!

The Huang Jin bandits who had been entrenched on the nearby Hushan had only then found the opportunity to come and attack with such fanfare!

Rubbing his head, Lin Yang felt truly helpless at this moment!

As a transmigrator, although Lin Yang was not a historical researcher!

He still understood a little bit about the history of the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period!

If he didn't have this County Magistrate status, it wouldn't have been impossible for him to go and hug Cao Cao's thigh!

At that time, relying on his understanding of history, becoming a strategist would absolutely have been no problem!

Not to mention great wealth, at the very least, he wouldn't have had to worry about his life!

Now, being in Jiangdu County!

What he needed to do was to survive first!

On the day the Huang Jin bandits breached the city!

Others might be able to survive!

But he, the County Magistrate of Jiangdu, absolutely had no possibility of survival!

"Forget it, let it be destroyed. There's no way to play this!"

In his hands, he had no troops and no grain!

This was simply an unsolvable situation!

As for those five hundred city-defending soldiers!

Once the grain in the city was gone, if they didn't rebel against him, Lin Yang would be burning high incense!

According to his predecessor's memories, these Han government soldiers were not exactly kind-hearted people!

"Ding, Reputation System successfully bound!"

"Ding, Reputation Marketplace opened!"

Just as Lin Yang was in despair, a sudden prompt sounded in his mind!

A system?

His system had arrived?

Before this, it wasn't as if Lin Yang hadn't thought about it!

But unfortunately, after calling out for a long time, there had been no response!

Now, in his despair, the system had finally arrived!

This allowed Lin Yang to see hope once again!

"Whoosh!"

Almost with a thought, the next moment, a brilliant light appeared, and then a virtual marketplace appeared before Lin Yang's eyes!

Host: Lin Yang

Position: County Magistrate of Jiangdu

Reputation Value: 3005

Tier-one Reputation Marketplace refreshed:

A bowl of white porridge: 1 Reputation

A plate of pickled mustard greens: 1 Reputation

A white flour steamed bun: 1 Reputation

PS: Consuming one million Reputation points can upgrade to a Tier-two Reputation Marketplace!

Looking at the Reputation Marketplace before him, Lin Yang's eyes shone with brilliance!

White porridge, pickled mustard greens, white flour steamed buns!

Heavens!

These were all grain!

"Ding, congratulations to the host for binding the system, the Newbie Gift Pack has been opened!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Tier-one Marketplace Item Zero-Yuan Purchase (Permanent)!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a 10*10*10 storage space!"

In his mind, the prompt sounded again, and Lin Yang, who hadn't yet reacted, was instantly stunned and frozen in place!
