A PhD in engineering transmigrates into the body of a poor, illegitimate son in ancient times, embarking on a comeback that uses technology to crush the era!
When he wakes, mechanical engineering PhD Lin Muzhi has become the least favored illegitimate son of the magistrate of Hanchuan County in the Great Yin Dynasty.
His mother died young, his father ignores him, and his legitimate elder brother persecutes him. Cast aside in a drafty, dilapidated shack, he is starving, freezing, and on the brink of death.
The northern frontier is bitterly cold and barren. The government is corrupt, foreign tribes encircle the land, and the empire is on the brink of collapse.
Survival?
Watch as he purifies snow salt to earn his first fortune, then makes fertilizer to lay the foundation for a harvest of ten thousand dan of grain!
Development?
Blast furnaces, water-powered machinery, flintlock rifles, the first chugs of steam... Technology advances by leaps and bounds as Hanchuan’s industry rises from the ground!
Political intrigue?
Aristocratic clans block his way? Officials scheme against him? Foreign cavalry invade? He’ll crush every demon and villain beneath the irresistible tide of progress!
From a single county to the conquest of all under heaven, from a starving, freezing illegitimate son to the emperor.
This is no mere change of dynasty. It is a complete transformation of the age: an Industrial Revolution!
Highlights:
Serious nation-building: A meticulously detailed technological ascent, from agriculture to military industry!
Political mind games: Every step in the court and the martial world is fraught with danger, as technology collides with the old order!
Fierce military action: Modern armies overwhelm their foes with a generational advantage, steel legions sweeping across the land!
