Liu Dazhu, a modern contractor, traveled through time and became a corvee to build the Great Wall in the Qin Dynasty.
On the first day after he woke up, he was tied up and wanted to behead him. He pointed at the city wall and shouted:
"This wall will collapse if it is built like this! Give me ten days and I will make it three feet taller!"
The supervisor, Captain Wang, sneered: "In ten days, if the wall is not up to standard, I will chop you down with my own hands."
Liu Dazhu thought he could easily pass the test by relying on the "strongest contractor system"——
It was found that the Qin Dynasty had no lime, no cement, no standardized tools, not even a level.
He could only lead a group of yellow-faced and skinny corvees to improve the rammed earth formula from scratch, invent simple pulleys, and design vertical transportation systems...
Gradually, a legend spread at the Great Wall construction site:
The corvee surnamed Liu could make stones go up mountains by themselves and make earthen walls as solid as rocks.
When the news reached Xianyang, Qin Shihuang looked at the secret report and fell into deep thought:
"Can this person... Can also repair Afang Palace?"
Liu Dazhu: I just want to go home alive, so why did I become the number one foreman in Daqin?
