Siheyuan: From Smokeless Stoves to Pillars of the Nation

After transmigrating into a courtyard house in the mid-1950s, he becomes a distant nephew of Qian Xueshen, but from the start he's faced with hellish difficulty, kept penned up like an animal by the Jia family. On the verge of freezing to death in a ramshackle house, Qian An awakens the God-Tier Craftsman System. Facing a fight for survival, his first goal is to use the System's blueprints to build an energy-efficient, smokeless stove that can keep him warm and let him eat his fill! But this little invention attracts the greedy eyes of the wolves throughout the courtyard. The Jia family wants to steal it, Silly Zhu wants to smash it, and the First Master wants to control him. Qian An gives a cold laugh. There is no greater joy than struggling against people! See how he starts with a little smokeless stove, takes on the courtyard schemers, drives innovation, catches the eye of the "Seven Offices," and rises from a temporary steel mill worker to a national treasure who solves countless critical technological bottlenecks!
