The Imperial Exams: A Farmer’s Son Brings Glory to His Family in a Farming Novel

Gu Yanshan was an ordinary modern web novelist who could write at lightning speed. He never imagined that he would wake up one day having transmigrated through time into the body of a farm boy in ancient times.

In this world, his hands were only good for holding a brush. When it came to catching chickens, he was utterly helpless. Aside from writing a few essays, he knew nothing about anything else.

Want to make a fortune in a world where people lived off farming? It seemed the only hope Gu Yanshan had was the imperial examinations.

But with nothing but bare walls at home, he couldn't even scrape together enough money to study. This path looked harder than climbing to heaven...

[A reader's guide: There are basically no golden fingers. This is a realistic story about the whole family working together and doing everything they can to support a scholar, with all the ups and downs of family life and the imperial examinations.]
