Zhang Ke, a master of modern materials engineering, traveled to the Qing Dynasty in the Northern Song Dynasty and possessed a poor scholar. He used the memories of fragments to improve soap-making, steel-making, cement and other technologies. He formed the Land and Sea Chamber of Commerce to promote industrial assembly lines, and founded the College of Engineering to break the monopoly of knowledge. However, because he touched the interests of Jiangnan Lu family, Guanzhong Weishi and other clans, he was jointly strangled by the Empress Dowager Cao and Privy Councilor Wei Hongye. When technological innovation met the etiquette of the imperial examination, when business contracts collided with the power of imperial power, Zhang Ke used glass mirror diplomacy and movable type printing to break the situation during crises such as the explosion of the Yingtian workshop and the destruction of the canal gate, and assisted the eldest princess Zhao Huirou to set off the "New System of Heavenly Saints". And as the Liao envoy Yelu Hongji's technological snooping and Liuli's life experience revealed the secrets of the previous dynasty, a game about the direction of civilization quietly unfolded - when the sketch of the steam engine suddenly appeared and the fortune ship raised its sails, can this dynasty rewritten by technology avoid the fate of destruction predicted in the "Industrial Manual"?
