Rebirth of the Great Yu: From Corpse Fisher to Grand Marshal

In the final years of the Great Yu dynasty, the imperial court collapsed, and funeral homes became the most profitable 'trend.' Zhao Dagou, a former military commander of a prestigious family, is reborn as the most useless corpse fisher by the river. To survive, he must disguise his 'ruthless efficiency' as 'greed and cowardice,' and his 'modern management' as 'street trickery.' Starting off cornered by debtors and forced to jump into the river, he uses biogas principles to fake supernatural events, scaring local thugs. Infiltrating the wealthy Qian family as an accountant, he helps Qian Buduo launder money with double-entry bookkeeping while smuggling firearms under the guise of 'sending souls to paradise.' Facing the brutal imperial envoy Wanyan Tiemu, he hands him a knife while poisoning him; facing the seemingly gentle benefactor Qian Buduo, he sees through the cold calculation that 'saving a person is only worth ten thousand taels.' From riverside funeral homes to ocean-going fleets, from smuggling salt to vying for the world, Zhao Dagou adheres to one principle: the world belongs to no one—it's just a business.
