A frail farmer’s son holds a treasure trove of knowledge. With one hand, he studies for the examinations and pursues a life of distinction; with the other, he farms to enrich his family and country. From a six-year-old who never had enough to eat, he rises step by step to become a Marquis and Chief Minister of Agriculture, beloved by the people.
After two years of severe drought, the fields yield nothing. Six-year-old Li An is dizzy with hunger when he unexpectedly awakens memories of his past life as an agricultural expert!
While others wail over the cracked earth, he secretly makes compost and improves the soil, turning barren slopes into fertile fields. While others worry they cannot even dig up wild greens, he grows drought-resistant, high-yield potatoes and sweet potatoes, making sure his whole family has enough to eat at every meal!
His sharp-tongued aunt considers him a fool for messing around, and the villagers mock him for thinking he can do the impossible. But when heaps of grain fill the granaries and a poor mountain village becomes prosperous, everyone is left dumbfounded!
Who says a farmer’s child has to leave everything to the weather? Drawing on what he learned in his past life, Li An teaches the villagers scientific farming and brings in running water for irrigation, carving out a way to survive in the midst of disaster.
See how this six-year-old prodigy uses his agricultural knowledge to lead his family, benefit the whole village, and climb step by step to the pinnacle of life!
