Love is a luxury; a tractor is a necessity."
In 1983, Lin Xiaoman transmigrates with modern mechanical engineering knowledge. From the start, all she has is a vernier caliper and a broken-down tractor.
In just three days, she builds a "homemade tractor" and shocks the entire county;
She improves the carburetor to cut farm machinery's fuel consumption by 30%, forcing a state-run factory to seek her cooperation;
The lightweight harvester she designs outperforms imported equipment on the flood-control front lines and makes the provincial newspaper's headlines.
As for that special forces veteran?
"Lin Xiaoman, from now on, all twelve trucks in my fleet are under your command."
"...Are you confessing your love or talking business?"
"Both. Being with you is profitable."
This is the story of a techie who builds an agricultural machinery empire with a wrench, and incidentally lands herself a boyfriend who can haul machine tools.
