When Zhao Xiaopeng, a top industrial engineer in the 21st century, and his talented female assistant Yang Nana were debugging a new energy core, an explosion occurred in the laboratory. The two traveled directly to the Shanxi border in the 18th year of Shunzhi - the war had just ended, the land was barren, the people were displaced, and the Qing army was still relying on cold weapons and primitive firearms to fight against the incursions of the Junggar tribe.
As an engineer who is familiar with the history of the Qing Dynasty, Zhao Xiaopeng is well aware of the regrets of this era: isolation led to technological backwardness, and ethnic estrangement led to wars. In the end, China missed out on the industrial revolution and became the prey of the great powers. Armed with industrial knowledge that surpasses the times for three hundred years, and with Yang Nana who is proficient in materials science and chemical engineering, the two are determined to never repeat the historical tragedy!
