The protagonist should not be sanctimonious, and the novel should not be mindless.

Highly Rated Imperial-Examination and Historical Novels, Reborn Stories Are Fine, Completed Works Only
Either a male or female lead is fine. No golden finger, but the protagonist should have a space. I really can’t stand protagonists with too many plot-armoring advantages.

Why is the rating so low? This book is actually quite good.
Is the author writing slowly, or did I start reading this book too early? I regret not waiting until it was finished. I'm so impatiently waiting for updates! The author writes so well; it's not a wish-fulfillment novel, but it's a hundred or a thousand times better. It's logical, well-written, heartwarming, and well-paced. A very high level of writing. Five stars! Waiting for updates online, I'm really anxious! 🤭
The book vividly portrays a story of someone who transmigrates to the Ming Dynasty and becomes wealthy through fishing, catching bird eggs, and hunting wild animals, eventually starting their studies. However, it's not quite the exciting part I initially expected.
Rural revitalization is great!
Very good, logical, and humorous writing style...
So far, it's quite good; it's the kind of farming and imperial examination novel I like. It's just that the platform isn't promoting it.
The title of this book was a bit off; I almost missed out on this great book. It's much better than other stories about getting rich quick through the imperial examinations. Every penny the protagonist earns is hard-earned. Walking dozens of miles to collect bird eggs is truly difficult, and he also works diligently in the fields. Despite his family's poverty, he never actively seeks out school.
It's well-written, especially the vivid depiction of daily life. The family is united and loving, and there aren't any melodramatic plot twists. I hope the later parts about the imperial examinations and officialdom will be even more exciting! 🤔
The author must be from the 1960s or 70s. Knowing such a rare agricultural tool as a flail is undeniable! The threshing, dusting, and drying processes are all perfectly accurate. Even the snorting sounds of feeding pigs are present. It's definitely worthy of confirmation! Thank you, it reminded me of my childhood in the countryside!
It looks great, it's heartwarming, it shows unity, and it will continue to develop.
