About This Novel

In troubled times, what is a good minister? Should we stick to the ancestral system and protect ourselves wisely, or should we break the shackles and work hard to rejuvenate the country? Fangyuan, with his knowledge from other worlds, emerged in the crisis of the Ming Dynasty. From an unknown official fighting floods in Zhucheng, he was promoted to the position of Tongzhi of Qingzhou Prefecture. Faced with a mess of empty treasury, homeless people, and unsolved corruption, he went against the grain and pushed forward the New Deal: building roads with work, attracting investment and setting up factories to develop industries, reducing taxes and subsidizing merchants, and severely punishing corruption and rectifying officials. He reused his cronies from poor families, appeased the displaced people, and achieved mutual benefits with businessmen, so that Qingzhou Prefecture was transformed within half a year and became a pure land in troubled times. But this achievement has attracted criticism and impeachment from all over the court. Some people are jealous, some are afraid, and some want to put him to death. Emperor Chongzhen's doubts, the difficulties of powerful ministers, and the obstruction of local forces failed to shake him from his original intention. When Wang Chengen's secret investigation team quietly arrives in Qingzhou, and when the undercurrent of the court spreads to the local area, can Fangyuan prove his innocence? Can Qingzhou's New Deal be pushed further? Can we find a way to prosper the country and stabilize the people in the turbulent Ming Dynasty?
