When Chen Mo woke up from the electroshock coma, he found that he had become a down-and-out scholar in the Zhou Dynasty who was heavily in debt. The original owner left behind not only a house full of sage books, but also an ancestral fishing ground targeted by wealthy gentry, as well as a strange "fish plague" that the entire fishing village is experiencing. As a modern fishery expert, he touched the smartphone that miraculously traveled through time in his coarse cloth sleeve.
From the first small victory of using tea meal to kill parasites, to the design of deep-sea wind and wave-resistant cages that shocked the state capital; from saving the livelihood of a fishing village to establishing a fishery alliance spanning three provinces. Chen Mo's every step is based on the changes of the times - improved fishing gear triggered a handicraft revolution, canned fish technology changed the grain reserve pattern, and pearl farming set off a storm in the luxury goods market.
But the road to counterattack is far longer than imagined. The Zhao family's business siege, the Salt and Iron Division's covert suppression, the pirate group's repeated attacks, and the smartphone's ever-dwindling battery... When the Little Ice Age leads to thousands of miles of bare land in the north, Chen Mo's national policy of "replacing food with fish" will push this time-traveler who has mastered modern technology to the center of the power game.
This is an epic about how technology is reshaping the times. From fishing villages to temples, from the ocean to the land, Chen Mo will spend his life proving that real change does not lie in temporary tricks, but in letting knowledge take root in this ancient land.
