“Wolves roam the world and eat meat; dogs roam the world and eat shit!
We Beijing men, wherever we go, must leave behind a monument when we fall and stand tall like a banner!
If you live, live like a real man!”
Ren Yi, a young man from Beijing, transmigrates to the early years of the Yongle era in the Ming dynasty. He becomes Wu Liuqi, the lowest-ranking servant in the household of the great general Liu Sheng, and begins a hilarious, legendary rise to become the Ming dynasty's foremost drifter in Beijing.
Friends can be found across the land, and family among all walks of life!
As long as it makes life better for us Beijingers, there's nothing we can't make happen!
The Grand Canal between Beijing and Hangzhou has fallen into disrepair!
No problem!
We'll seek out experts and friends to figure out how to dredge it!
The Forbidden City hasn't been built yet!
No problem!
We'll be the foremen ourselves. From the Three Mountains and Five Peaks to every corner of the land, we'll use the finest materials and hire the best craftsmen. If we're going to build, we'll create an architectural marvel that will be remembered for all time!
The capital is a chaotic mix of all kinds of people, and it's hard to bring them together!
No problem!
We'll treat others with the same sincerity we hope to receive. For a thousand years, Beijing has had just one greatest rule: benevolence and loyalty!
