About The Power Porridge: A Modern Man in an Ancient World
The male protagonist was deceived by his girlfriend and went bankrupt making ten tons of porridge. Unable to sell it, he drove a large truck and accidentally traveled through time to the Danya Dynasty. By a stroke of luck, he was mistaken for a county magistrate by a general. He thought he could comfortably rule as a local tyrant with the identity of the county magistrate in the Danya Dynasty, but he heard that the laborers in the city had already started a rebellion due to a lack of food. Faced with the emaciated laborers, he felt compassion and took out the ten tons of porridge to relieve them. He thought the crisis could be resolved, but he didn't expect... the real county magistrate arrived, and the protagonist, the fake county magistrate, was in a deadly situation. What's more outrageous is that the general is actually a bandit behind the scenes, and the previous county magistrate was killed by her.
