This is a fictional, slow-paced story, with a setting inspired by the Southern Song dynasty.
In her previous life, Chen Miao was a poverty-alleviation official who died during flood relief efforts. She had a master’s degree and five years of experience working in a government department. After pledging herself to the campaign against poverty, she studied the development models of local governments throughout modern history, visited countless industrial plants, farms, livestock operations, and villages where traditional handicrafts were taking their products beyond China to the world. She absorbed knowledge like a sponge. Just as her poverty-alleviation work was getting underway and beginning to show results, a once-in-a-century rainstorm hit. While helping evacuate residents, she was swept away by the flood and reborn in the Great Liang dynasty.
The Great Liang is surrounded by hungry wolves, each eager to tear a piece from the helpless empire.
Chen Miao learns to hunt and works hard in the fields. Just as she finally leads the villagers toward prosperity, the Jin invaders arrive, burning, killing, and looting. Her mentor dies a brutal death protecting the villagers...
Qi Xiling has been a reckless little tyrant since childhood, but even a tyrant can dream of becoming a hero. He longs to ride across the battlefield and kill so many Jin invaders that they never dare set foot in the Great Liang again...
The times push everyone forward. When they look back, everywhere touched by the sun and moon, every river and stream, is Han land.
The Great Qi is the world, and the world is the Great Qi.
I have been a bookworm for more than ten years and can no longer read many of the books. I have been following this book for a long time. I don't have a lot of gold fingers. The heroine uses her knowledge to help her family change their lives and then benefits others. There are not many excellent books. The only shortcoming is that the updates are too slow 😂
The author writes very well. The heroine has lofty ideals, but there is no system or golden finger. She relies on herself and her family to achieve it step by step. After reading Chapter 150, I found that there seems to be a lot of foreshadowing. It may be a long story.
It's pretty good to watch, but the pace is slow and the heroine has a big personality. She keeps doing what she can and slowly affects the people around her.
