This book uses hilarious rants and historical storytelling to jokingly recount the events of 296 years of the Qing Dynasty: from Nurhachi's Thirteen Armors to start a business, to the carnival of the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties, to Cixi's rise to power and the collapse of the empire. The plot is full of jokes and contrasts between the characters throughout. It does not use official language and is not boring. The whole process of a group of Northeastern people taking over the world and having fun is written into a relaxed history that is both easy to eat and easy to remember. It is suitable for all ages.
