No romance
After transmigrating to the Republic of China era, Rong Yu starts from the very bottom: bankrupt, owing five thousand silver dollars, and with no one at his side.
When he takes in his first street child, all he wants is a little helper who can help him turn things around in three days.
Later, he ends up taking in a whole brood: a future military engineering giant, a codebreaking prodigy, a master physician, a pioneer in optics...
Saving the nation through industry starts with raising children. An enemy business coalition closing in? A technological blockade? Warlord threats?
Rong Yu adjusts his glasses. “Don’t rush. Just wait until my kids grow up.”
