Why Are There No Books with Anything Special Lately?
Lately, it feels like every book is just rehashing the same old formulas, and so many have two male leads. Sometimes you can guess the plot or ending pretty much from the start. I'm not interested anymore.

A very good book, it's a pity it's not popular enough. In terms of quality, it should be a 9 out of 10. The plot is logical, but the pacing is indeed very slow. The narrative is sometimes a bit complicated, and you can tell that the author started to adjust it in the second half.
I thought it was from the Southern Ming Dynasty; young boys are hard to deal with.
This novel is a matter of personal taste! Some people like the idea that time-traveling characters can immediately recruit historical officials and generals, snowballing their power and strength – whatever illogical or wishful thinking they have.
Recommended book, well-written
The author has a strong historical background and writes fluently. Readers without a certain amount of historical reading experience will find it difficult to persevere. The first 1000 chapters are essentially background introductions, while the last 1000 chapters are where the protagonist really shines.
This book is a masterpiece that is so close to reality; it should have a rating of over nine points! The reason for the low rating is probably that most readers haven't moved on from other wish-fulfillment novels, have forgotten the unpredictability of human nature, and have taken the characters' overpowered abilities in wish-fulfillment novels as reality.
I think it's well-written; those who prefer a fast-paced narrative may not like it, but the author has at least no common-sense errors and pays attention to detail.
If I'm not mistaken, they will vigorously promote potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes, with results expected in two years and significant progress in five. They will also compete with the Qing Dynasty in technology for ten years, recognizing that the Qing Dynasty already possessed the weapons they had seen before, albeit with less power.
Okay, okay, okay
It's exceptionally well-written, with many engaging stories and vivid descriptions of characters and scenes. Most historical novels just fill space by describing characters' backgrounds, which is a shame; it's not very popular. Some of the early stories were quite good, but there were too many self-answered explanations and too little actual plot. Large blocks of filler text were used; if all of it were removed, it would feel more like a novel.
