[Female disguised as a man + Infrastructure maniac + Da Qin + Machiavellian pull]
Lin Zhao, a water conservancy engineer in his previous life, died suddenly while working overtime. When he opened his eyes again, he became the new county magistrate of Qinpei County.
Not only did he inherit a destitute mess with six million in debt and starving people everywhere, but he also had a fatal corset on his chest.
Qin's laws are strict, and if a woman pretends to be an official of the court, she will be beheaded and sentenced to death if exposed.
Facing the Sishui River that could burst its banks at any time, Lin Zhao rolled up his trousers and plunged into the quagmire to start hard-core water control.
He rolled out a bamboo level with his bare hands and used thermal expansion and contraction to crack the hard river bottom bedrock with a large fire.
Drawing drawings, building ropeways, and building water mills, a set of lever principles directly shocked the stubborn old carpenter.
In order to get money and grain, she set up checkpoints to rip off grain merchants, created a work-point system to mobilize women and children in the county, and turned Pei County, the poorest county, into a cornucopia of wealth.
The special imperial envoy "Mr. Zhao" from Xianyang secretly observed incognito. From criticizing and questioning to being convinced, he even couldn't help but protect him personally.
Not only did he help her solve the food and manpower crisis many times, but he also unknowingly fell into her grand vision.
Until the county guard's difficult document was smashed down, and all kinds of open guns and hidden arrows were approaching.
In the dim main hall, Mr. Zhao placed a black iron-sheathed dagger heavily on the table.
His fingertips traced the hidden five-clawed dragon pattern on the sheath, and the man leaned close to her ear. The moment he opened his mouth, he spoke with the majesty of life and death. With this knife, no one in the world of Da Qin would dare to check your background.
