If you're looking for a power fantasy, you can start reading from Chapter 220. Please!
After transmigrating to the prosperous Kaiyuan era of the Tang Dynasty, Chen Bowei binds to the [Conquest System] the moment he arrives. His mission from the start hits him like a ton of bricks: build an invincible fleet within ten years and rule the four seas!
"Your Majesty! Lingnan is such a barbaric wasteland that it's hard to find even a decent plank of wood there. How can he possibly build an invincible fleet?"
The Minister of War's voice rang through the hall. The court erupted in an uproar, with officials chiming in: "Lord Chen must have just arrived and doesn't know his place!"
Only Chen Bowei gazed at the aircraft carrier blueprints and steam turbines within reach in the System Shop, a cold smile curling his lips.
Starting from a small fishing village in Lingnan, he builds enormous ships with his own hands, trains a navy, and opens new sea routes, crushing his era with the core technologies of the Industrial Revolution.
First he conquers the nations of the South China Sea, then pounds the Japanese pirates of the east. After ten years of honing his skills, he finally plants the Tang dragon flag across the globe!
Li Longji is overjoyed: "Lord Chen, I'll grant you the funds to build ten more fleets!"
An Lushan turns deathly pale with fear: "General Chen, spare me! I won't rebel again!"
