Historical farming and infrastructure mania [Ancient Shu civilization, hardcore technology, positive energy, the rise of civilization]
Rong Yan, a doctoral engineer specializing in water conservancy, accidentally falls into the wilderness of ancient Shu three thousand years ago, where he becomes a dying son-in-law despised by everyone in a remote tribe. In ancient Shu, floodwaters surge, human sacrifices stain the land with blood, and the common people starve, while shamans wield divine authority and treat human lives as grass.
Faced with desperate odds, Rong Yan rolls up his sleeves and uses modern engineering science as his blade to carve a way forward: building massive levees to hold back the dragons, firing ceramic pipes to lay water networks, constructing blast furnaces to smelt bronze and pig iron, and introducing the curved-shaft plow to cultivate thousands of acres of fertile land! Together with Si Xian, the resolute and courageous daughter of the tribal chief, he shatters the superstitions of shamans, repels barbarian raiders, and transforms a narrow floodplain into a granary as secure as a fortress.
When the vast Shu roads are completed and a towering royal city rises from the ground, an epic tale of pioneering craftsmanship and nation-building, forged not by gods but by human hands and ingenuity, begins!
The subject matter is good. I hope the author will not give up halfway. I will update it soon.
