Su Xiaoshu becomes a landowner. As a walking anachronism in ancient times, he has advanced knowledge from thousands of years in the future. He may not become a high-ranking official, but surely he can spend his days on his little plot of land and take a few concubines, right? Just as he is full of ambition, he realizes... Damn, everything starts with hard work! Hard work makes a nation prosper, while empty talk ruins it. Maybe that's not such a bad thing!
