I Spent Three Years Fighting Poverty, and You Tell Me This Is the Qin Dynasty?

"Lucid waters and lush mountains are as valuable as mountains of gold and silver!"

"There is no such thing as true poverty, only resources that haven't been put to use and ordinary people who haven't received help!"

"To alleviate poverty, you have to adapt to local customs, respect the people, and help them!"

Lu Chen, a university graduate appointed as a village official, takes up his post and heads to the faraway Zhao Family Village to help the villagers escape poverty.

But halfway there, his car crashes, sending Lu Chen and the vehicle tumbling down a cliff.

When he wakes up, a group of kind "locals" are looking after him. The village chief leading them says his surname is Ying, but he can also go by Zhao.

Seeing how honest and simple the villagers look, Lu Chen can't help feeling a pang of sadness. He secretly vows to lead Zhao Family Village out of poverty and into prosperity.

So he builds bridges and roads, puts up houses, improves seeds and soil, and brings in modern methods...

After three years of hard work, the villagers' lives have finally begun to improve.

Lu Chen steps out of Zhao Family Village and is stunned.

I came here to alleviate poverty, and you're telling me this is the Qin dynasty?
