Dual Systems: The First Emperor Pushes Me from Behind to Develop Technology

Zhao Yuan transmigrated to the Qin dynasty and bound a technology farming System. He thought he’d be starting out in a farming story: clearing land, growing wheat, building irrigation canals, and slowly developing until he could lie flat.

What he didn’t know was that Qin Shi Huang had bound a System too, and had hacked into Zhao Yuan’s at the very first opportunity.

So every task Zhao Yuan received had been personally selected by the First Emperor behind the scenes.

Zhao Yuan thought he was growing wheat; the First Emperor thought he was producing military provisions. Zhao Yuan thought he was improving farming tools; the First Emperor thought he was mass-producing weapons. When Zhao Yuan saw the penalty notice saying, “Failure to complete the task will trigger a heavenly thunder punishment,” he sat in silence all night. He didn’t know the First Emperor had personally selected that option.

One engineering student who just wanted to lie flat, and one emperor bent on squeezing every last drop of work out of him. One thought the System was full of bugs; the other watched him perform with a smile from behind the scenes.
