The Dimensional Chronicle of Construction: A Guide to Causing Trouble in Ancient Times

Chen Yan, a top modern architecture student, transmigrates by accident to an alternate ancient world and activates the “Infrastructure Planning Simulator,” a golden finger that can model all kinds of construction projects and bring its optimal solutions to life. He starts out in Qingheli, a desolate village in the south, first improving its saline-alkali soil with modern agricultural knowledge, then using simulations to build fire-resistant wooden houses and cement irrigation canals. Step by step, he turns the impoverished village into a hub for trade routes. Along the way, he blends in inspiration from anime and manga to create distinctive industries like the “Illustrated Scroll Workshop” and the “Mechanical Theater,” attracting martial artists, aristocratic scions, and even members of the royal family. Faced with oppression from local powerful clans, raids by bandits, and covetous sects, Chen Yan uses the System’s simulated city defenses, repeating crossbow formations, and intelligence network to overcome every crisis. In the end, he makes the “City of a Hundred Crafts” the foundation for sweeping industrial reforms across the entire dynasty, sparking a dazzling collision between anime culture and ancient civilization and forging a legend as a master builder.
