Siheyuan: Starting with the Inheritance of Lu Ban's Mechanism City

Li Xie, a top engineering PhD, transmigrates to 1956 and becomes an orphaned child of a martyr, with no one to rely on and no future, or so Jia Zhangshi says. Everyone in the courtyard laughs at him.

From the start, he's surrounded by a whole courtyard of beasts!

Jia Zhangshi is insatiably greedy and wants to take my home? Qin Huairu, the white-lotus saint, wants to cheat me out of my compensation? Silly Zhu, a brainless simp, wants to throw a punch for his goddess? First Uncle Yi Zhonghai is shamelessly hypocritical and wants to judge me from his moral high ground?

At the brink of despair, he activates the Luban Mechanism City he carries with him!

It contains an endless supply of blueprints for future high-tech inventions!

You beasts, your end is here!

A miniature tripwire makes Jia Zhangshi bite the dust! A force-feedback glove breaks Silly Zhu's wrist with one punch! Qin Huairu is verbally demolished by a "smart speaker" until she questions her whole life! Under a "lie detector," Yi Zhonghai's hypocritical mask is torn away on the spot!

What? You say it's the 1950s or 60s, and supplies are scarce?

Sorry, the automated agriculture module in my Mechanism City is already running. Grain and vegetables are piled up like mountains!

The beasts in this courtyard? They're just experience packs for me to farm points!

Watch me, Li Xie, carve out a path to the heavens with technology far ahead of its time, in an era crawling with beasts!
