When other people transmigrate, they either become emperors or cultivate immortality and ascend to godhood. When Lin Xiaoman transmigrates, all he brings is his mobile food truck, which he uses to sell snacks across all of time and space.
From the Peking Man Site in the Paleolithic Age to the banks of the Nile in ancient Egypt; from the squares of ancient Athens to the streets of Chang'an in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty; from the Mayan rainforest to the Caribbean in the Age of Exploration, he conquers primitive people with fried chicken, wins over the Egyptian pharaoh with an ice pop, and makes zhajiangmian a sensation across ancient Rome. He brings modern cuisine to every corner of human civilization throughout time.
Ancient people from every era treat him like a god. Only one old man follows him through a hundred different eras, becoming his one and only dedicated hater.
Everyone else raves about his food. Socrates is the only one who bites into his fried chicken and sips his iced cola while putting him through a philosophical grilling:
“If fried chicken is your source of strength, then what are you without it?”
Lin Xiaoman: Old man, if you're going to mooch food, then just mooch. Do you have to argue with me every single day?
A lighthearted, funny journey checking in across all of civilization, with laughs in every chapter and no angst. Follow a burnt-out office worker turned street-food vendor and the argumentative philosopher Socrates as they love and fight across time and space!
What? Isn't every picture exactly the same?
Oh, awesome, there is such a magical book, it is more or less a god.
Invincible, too philosophical
