I wake up to find I've become Zhao Gao, a distant member of the Qin royal clan? Faced with hidden-palace KPIs even harsher than a 996 work schedule, I choose to put my modern knowledge to ingenious use.
I improve the lost-wax casting method to rush out ritual vessels for Ying Zheng's coming-of-age ceremony, then use crude steelmaking techniques to crush Lao Ai's rebels at Zhangtai Palace. From harnessing petroleum to improving saddles, I do it all. Qin Shi Huang becomes my biggest investor, while Fusu, Hu Hai, and Ying Yinman follow me in learning to investigate the principles of things.
As the Xiongnu leader Modu quietly migrates west and the Roman legions are still in their infancy, my disciples are already steering mighty warships into the deep sea. At court, I use project-management principles to implement the commandery-and-county system.
This is the most rigorous kind of transmigration: every invention adheres to the limits of ancient science. From the rules of survival at court to strategies for expanding civilization, watch how modern workplace wisdom sets off an elegant Industrial Revolution in the Great Qin.
