Infrastructure Maniac: From the Start, Exiled to the Wilds as a Lord

Lu Chuan, a modern civil engineer, unexpectedly transmigrates as a disgraced prince exiled to a barren wasteland. Faced with alkaline soil and desperate villagers, he vows to bring life to this dead land. He wins their trust with a shallow well, crushes the local bully’s influence with fishing traps, and uncovers astonishing mineral deposits in the mountains. When powerful enemies threaten from beyond their borders, Lu Chuan uses his exceptional ingenuity to lead the villagers toward self-sufficiency. With merchants coming and going, brick kilns rising, and fallen warriors offering their help, he embarks on an unprecedented infrastructure-building journey in this untamed land.
