Archaeologist Su Zhe unexpectedly transmigrates into the early Southern Song dynasty, where he becomes a despised, degenerate gambler and wife-beater under the puppet state of Qi!
The dynasty has fallen, the land lies in ruins, and famine stalks the countryside. In these troubled times, human life is worth less than grass.
His predecessor is buried in gambling debts and is even planning to sell his stunning wife and sister-in-law to a hunter to pay off a few strings of coins!
Fortunately, Su Zhe is here!
He kicks his predecessor’s wretched past to the curb and vows to protect the women he loves and uphold what is right, carving out a place for himself in this chaotic age.
At a glance, he recognizes the truth about a chipped bowl: the rough vessel used to serve wild greens porridge is actually a priceless Jian ware treasure from the future!
He identifies treasures through Jian ware and brings order to a chaotic age with his knowledge.
Starting from nothing, he stockpiles grain and builds his wealth. Amid a fractured land, he enters the halls of power, commands the martial world, resists the Jin invaders, and protects his country and people.
One bowl reflects the land; one piece of porcelain tells a thousand years of history.
See how a modern archaeologist makes his way through the turmoil of the Song-Jin era and carves out a magnificent legend for the ages!
