In the twelfth year of Kangxi's reign, on the eve of the San Francisco Rebellion.
A twenty-eight-year-old Ph. D. In medicinal chemistry died in a laboratory explosion. When he woke up, he found that he had become the sixteen-year-old Yue Xing'a, the third-class baron heir of the Niimacha family in Zhenghongqi, Manchuria. His grandfather saved the old Khan's life in the Battle of Sarhu and was given the title "Batulu". By his generation, the family was in decline, and his father was a posthumous official in the infantry commander's office. All that was left in the family was the ancestral bow wrapped with beef tendon on the wall and the empty name of "Batulu's grandson."
Yue Xing'a has no system. All he had was the knowledge of a doctor of chemistry for ten years - the synthesis of aspirin, the principles of steam engines, vaccination of cowpox, and the purification of saltpeter. He also has no protagonist aura. The first time I shot an arrow, I missed the target. The first time he did a distillation experiment, he was kicked over by his father and almost burned down the house. The first time he was treated for an injury, the doctor accompanying him pointed at his nose and scolded him as "witchcraft".
But he had one thing - he knew the future.
He knew that in twelve years, the Cossacks of Tsarist Russia would build a city in Yaksa; he knew that in twenty years, Galdan would lead the Junggar cavalry to invade the east; he knew that if the empire continued to sleep in the illusion of a "celestial kingdom", another fleet would knock on the door of this country in two hundred years.
Starting from the writing of a gunpowder bureau, he went step by step - improving gunpowder, purifying medicinal materials, manufacturing glass, casting steel, and trial-producing a steam engine. Every step he took was creating enemies: the conservative bannermen accused him of forgetting his roots, the pragmatic Han officials impeached him for confusing his master, and the smart Kangxi looked at him with both admiration and coldness in his eyes.
