On his first day after transmigrating to the Qin Dynasty, Chen Yuan nearly worked himself to death.
The good news: he had transmigrated.
The bad news: he had become a convict laborer building the Great Wall, with iron chains shackled to his wrists.
Other transmigrators start out with a city of their own. He started out in shackles. Other people’s golden fingers come with Systems that hand out cheats. His System only serves up motivational platitudes: “Love yourself, old pal. You’ve only got one you, so there’s no reason not to spoil yourself.”
Fine, then. He’d spoil himself.
But Chen Yuan soon discovered that the management on this godforsaken worksite was even more cutthroat than at a modern company. There were KPI assessments, quality inspections, and a system of job responsibilities. The foreman, Scarface Li, was scarier when angry than any client.
If he couldn’t run, he’d outwork them all.
Build wheelbarrows and boost efficiency eightfold. Make cement so the walls would never fall. Standardize everything and usher the Qin into the Industrial Age two thousand years early.
Meng Tian: This man is a genius.
The First Emperor: We must keep him.
Chen Yuan: I just want to clock out.
Then one day, the First Emperor himself came to find him. “I hear you call this a KPI? Set one for me, too.”
Chen Yuan gazed at the eternal emperor before him and fell into deep thought.
Who had ever had to set performance targets for their boss?
Very beautiful!! The writing style is more detailed and detailed, and the characters are very three-dimensional! The only shortcoming is that the words are repeated in some places, which affects the reading experience a bit, but the author writes very well about the world's human feelings and the aspirations of the people! It's very touching. It's the fireworks of ordinary people. The protagonist just wants to live, live by himself, live by his brothers, live by everyone, and live by the common people. I like the chapter about Lingnan the most. No one can be left out. The marriage between Amu and Xiaoyue leads to the marriage between the Lingnan family. I think it's really good!
Overall it's pretty good, but the perspective is different after traveling through time! The protagonist has always done basic things without so much intrigue. That is, the Confucianism in the Qin Dynasty is different from that in the later period. Sometimes the terms and things used in the Qin Dynasty did not have such sayings and stories!
This text is such a joy to read! The concise and bright writing style hides a rigorous logical context, and the witticisms that pop up from time to time make people laugh and put it down. Recommended
I found that this article has a special feature. Many chapters are summarized. The first sentence at the beginning summarizes and then expands.
The protagonist is a down-to-earth person
Let me go, what a good book, one of the few good books I have read
