From the Start with Fifty Yuan, I Control the World by Farming

[High-Tech Farming] + [Handing It Over to the Nation] + [Everyone Thinks He's a Genius]

Reborn in 2002, Lu Chen has only 52 yuan and a futuristic phone that charges by “farming.”

To charge it, he leases the most barren patch of rocky wasteland in the village, a place so harsh even ghosts would avoid it.

The villagers laugh at him for being crazy. His relatives laugh at him for being stupid.

Then a Category 12 typhoon makes landfall, wiping out the province's entire harvest. Only Lu Chen's fields rumble with the sound of metal!

An expert arrives to debunk the claims, kicks a coriander plant, and breaks his leg on the spot.

The expert is stunned. “You call this coriander? It's harder than tank armor!”

Lu Chen shrugs. “Don't touch those potatoes over there. They're biological land mines. And those vines are cryogenic ice vines that cool Tencent's servers.”

From then on, Dahuang Village becomes a global no-go zone.

The Eagle Country is in meltdown. “What good are sanctions?! Why are Longguo's seventh-generation fighter jets growing out of the fields?!”

Lu Chen sighs. “Honestly, I really just wanted to charge my phone.”
