The Ming Dynasty's New Fire

From conscripted military household to commissioner of the Ministry of Works, from a humble shack in a border garrison to a workshop in the capital.

Lin Mo only wants to quietly focus on engineering, but history insists on dragging him into its affairs.

Yu Qian has eaten the hotpot he made, Zhou Chen has taken the blueprints he drew, and even Duke of Ying Zhang Fu has come to ask him, “Boy, how far can this firearm of yours shoot?”

What he doesn’t know is that twenty-two years from now, this empire will face a catastrophe.

And the little flame in his hands will be the light that changes everything.

Farming, technology, redemption, and warmth: this is the story of a modern engineer laying bricks in the Ming dynasty.
