The Shen Family's Carpenter: One Axe Brings in Ten Thousand Taels of Gold

Shen Qingning transmigrates into the body of a poor farm girl whose family can barely afford to eat.

Her father is a carpenter with a disabled hand; her mother is gentle, her younger siblings are small, and greedy relatives come by every day to steal their food.

The whole village laughs at her:

“A woman working as a carpenter? With those rough hands, she'll never find a husband!”

Shen Qingning refuses to believe them.

She repairs plowshares, makes furniture, builds counters, and improves waterwheels. With one axe, she carves out a name for herself.

While others go hungry, she earns a fortune day after day.

The wealthy households of the whole town line up to hire her. The relatives who once laughed at her now kneel and call her their boss.

That cold-faced hunter, Lu Qingshan, lets only her repair his bow, and brings meat only to her home.

The whole village is green with envy. “She's just a woman carpenter. What makes her so special?”

Her skills are sharp, and her will is even harder.

With one axe, she can chop wood, shatter a life of poverty, and carve a road to riches.

From having half a sack of coarse rice stolen to amassing a fortune worth ten thousand taels, Shen Qingning shows everyone with her callused hands:

A woman can hold a carpenter's livelihood more firmly than any man.

A female carpenter strikes it rich, face-slaps every villain, and wins the hunter's devotion. Her career comes first, romance second!
