Synopsis

In 1841, the twenty-two-year-old scholar Mo Wenhua of Ning Tan Town in Lingnan accidentally binds himself to the Doubao System. The Taiping Rebellion is already brewing in the shadows, and the small Mo clan is in grave danger.

Tailored to the realities of mid-to-late Qing-era Lingnan, the System provides plans for agricultural improvements, resource management, military training, and anticipating crises. With its help, Mo Wenhua begins by resolving the clan’s struggle to survive, then gradually builds a stable agricultural base, a thriving economy, excellent education, comprehensive healthcare, and a well-equipped militia.

When the Taiping Rebellion breaks out, he leads the Mo clan through the turmoil and helps it establish a foothold, transforming it from a poor little village into a bustling city, and finally into a prominent Lingnan family known across China. Amid the upheavals of the late Qing, he lays a firm foundation for his clan.

Spanning 1841 to 1870, this story tells the legendary tale of a small clan using a “cheat” to defy fate and change its fortunes.
