Great Qin: I Improved Quarrying from the Start and Became a Marquis

Zhao Shang, a double doctorate holder, unexpectedly transmigrates to the nineteenth year of King Zheng of Qin and becomes a foreman among the conscript laborers building the mausoleum at Mount Li. At a stone quarry where human lives are worth less than grass, he uses his modern knowledge of mechanics and materials science to improve the iron-wedge quarrying method, dramatically increasing output. He earns Zhang Han’s favor and takes charge of the entire quarry. Unwilling to remain trapped in forced labor, he resolves to head for the battlefield and make a name for himself. Armed with knowledge ahead of its time, he blazes a path to power in a chaotic Qin, defying fate and changing his life.
