After Becoming a Commoner in Ancient Times, I Gave the Ancients a Business Lesson

Su Xiao, a modern corporate slave, worked overtime until midnight and woke up as an orphaned commoner in ancient times—her parents died, and her uncles drove her out. She squatted on the street selling embroidered handkerchiefs, only to have her stall overturned by competitors and money robbed by thugs. In despair, she used modern business thinking to turn around: embroidering handkerchiefs into "twelve constellations" claiming they bring luck, opening a "group embroidery workshop" for women to work together, and setting up a stage for "on-site embroidery" at the market to attract crowds. This turned into the "Constellation Embroidery Workshop" but offended Shopkeeper Chen, who monopolized embroidery. He threatened to cut her fabric supply. Su Xiao brought the aunts to him: "Instead of earning ten taels alone, join us for a hundred—business is about expanding the cake." Later, her workshop reached the capital, she became the richest, and let the ancients realize: Making money lasts when everyone earns together.
