Great Ming: Exiled from the Start, I Sparked an Industrial Revolution

The twenty-fifth year of the Hongwu reign.

"The Seventh Prince, Zhu Fu, has committed treason. He is to be exiled to Liaodong and stripped of his title, becoming a commoner."

Zhu Fu had only just transmigrated when an imperial decree sent him to a frigid wasteland.

Everyone around him said that Zhu Fu had lived in luxury and would not last more than a few days there.

Who could have guessed that after arriving, Zhu Fu would build bridges, pave roads, and open factories, ushering Liaodong into the industrial age!

When a hundred thousand Jurchen troops suddenly invaded Liaodong, Zhu Fu brought out rifles and cannons and routed them in a single day, leaving the imperial court in shock!

Zhu Yuanzhang came in person and was stunned by what he saw.

The city walls were a full thirty meters high, lined with rifles and cannons. Even a lone army could hold out behind these walls! Truly, one man could hold the pass against ten thousand!

It was the dead of winter, with snow blanketing the land outside, yet the rooms indoors were so warm!

These bridges! These roads!

The people living in this city were better off than you, their own father!

Was this still a frigid wasteland? It was practically a blessed land!

Zhu Yuanzhang was so envious he wanted to move the capital there at once!
