The Abandoned Wife of a Poor Family: From the Start, I Tear Up the Divorce Decree

After transmigrating into the life of a discarded wife from a poor family, Lin Wei smiles as she looks at the divorce letter.

She managed to thrive in the capital’s government circles in her previous life. What could a little mountain village do to her? Drawing on the high emotional intelligence, sharp mind, and exceptional political skills she honed in her former career, she joins forces with the fallen general Xiao Yan. Starting with the development of a frontier town, they build a port, stimulate trade, and establish a navy, navigating the treacherous rivalries among the powers around them.

From the struggle over Nanyang spices to the designs of the Western powers, and then a desperate battle against the remnants of the former dynasty’s Underworld Tower, Lin Wei cuts a path across the seas as a woman. She skillfully balances her complicated relationships with her husband, a Western viscount, and a young nobleman from the capital, linking her personal fate to the sweeping tides of her era. When the slumbering ancient force known as the Guixu Sea Eye is awakened, unleashing a world-ending crisis, she resolutely takes on the mission of saving all living beings. In the end, she leads humanity from the oceans to the stars.

This novel offers both tender, moving depictions of love and grand, intricate schemes of power and civilizational progress. Lin Wei is no cookie-cutter heroine who relies on a golden finger. With genuine wisdom and vision, she writes an epic in another world, rising from desperate survival to ruling the realm and ushering in an age among the stars. This is a grand maritime saga of love, protection, growth, and the leap of civilization.
