[No system + no golden fingers + rebellion + anti-Qing and destruction of foreign countries + scientific and technological power + struggle for hegemony]
Chen Yan is a modern cultural relic restorer who traveled to Yantai, Shandong in 1904 and became an apprentice in a blacksmith shop.
He found that there were thousands of blacksmiths in Yantai Port, but they could only make horseshoes and farm tools, while foreigners had a monopoly on the manufacturing of precision parts and even the spikes for railway repairs had to be imported.
Chen Yan has an ancestral bronze toolbox, which contains various homemade micro-carving knives and magnifying glasses, as well as a handwritten "Supplementary Notes to the Kao Gong Ji", which was passed down from his grandfather. It contains many detailed structures, principles, and operating methods of ancient machinery.
In the beginning, the foreigners built the railway and needed spikes. Thousands of craftsmen in Yantai built them but they were all unqualified. They deliberately made things difficult and were extremely arrogant! It is said that the Chinese cannot produce road spikes! Chen Yan used modern knowledge and his grandfather's toolbox to create a road spike that met the standard requirements and could withstand eight heavy hammers!
Chen Yan used a hammer to smash the arrogance of the foreigners, and fought against the Qing Dynasty and destroyed the foreigners step by step, allowing the entire China to take off again, leaving behind an immortal legend for a generation of Chinese people to shine in the annals of history!
