The Wind Rises in the Oak Sun: a Chronicle of Qin's Merger with the Six Kingdoms

Lin Fu, a graduate student in the Department of History, was suddenly struck by an earthquake while inspecting the Zhengguo Canal ruins, and accidentally traveled to Yueyang of the Qin State in 239 BC - this was a key node when Ying Zheng was about to take over, and Lu Buwei and Lao Ai were fighting for power. There were only seven years left before Qin destroyed Han, and the prelude to the unification of the world was about to begin. Lin Fu, who possesses knowledge of modern water conservancy, smelting, and detailed historical knowledge, fell into an existential crisis when he first came to the Warring States Period: without the household registration certificate "Fu Ji", it was difficult to enter Yueyang City; Lao Aimen's guests were hunting down strangers everywhere, and the identities of tourists might be exposed at any time. Relying on his familiarity with the Qin bamboo slips in Sleeping Tiger Land, he regarded himself as a "traveler of the Wei State", and by predicting the crisis of the collapse of the eastern section of the Zhengguo Canal, he gained the attention of Tingwei Li Si and was able to gain a foothold in the government-run iron smelting workshop. In the workshop, Lin Fu purified wrought iron using the "gray quenching method" and strengthened the canal embankments using the "plywood ramming method". He used basic technologies beyond the times to solve the thorny problems of Warring States craftsmen. Not only did he obtain the "Shangzao" title and legal household registration, he also won the trust of the workshop owner Hei Fu and the craftsmen.
