Transmigrated into an Ancient Blacksmith, I Hunt Game and Feed Meat to My Wife

Jiang Ye, a PhD in Chinese literature, transmigrates overnight into the body of a poor blacksmith in a remote corner of the Shuo Dynasty, with a timid young wife, Qin Jinxue, thrown in for good measure. He only wants to live a quiet life, but the troubled times won't let him. The Di cavalry press at the border, burning, killing, and looting.

Jiang Ye quietly flips through the encyclopedia in his mind: he uses physics and chemistry to improve weapons, lays barbed wire to stop horses, and builds crossbows on an assembly line. He applies the Thirty-Six Stratagems to set ambushes and wage guerrilla warfare, leaving the enemy utterly bewildered. A sword he forges on a whim turns out to be sharp enough to cut through iron; a root he digs up in the wasteland becomes a crop that yields a thousand catties per mu.

And all the motivation behind his hard work comes from the figure who always leaves a lamp burning for him at night.

Watch her go from never daring to look up to learning how to act coy, and watch him grow from a frail scholar-blacksmith into a pillar of strength for the people around him.

"Others fight to rule the world. I just want to win my little Xue a peaceful, prosperous age."
