Building Up in a Chaotic Age: From a Ruined Village to an Empire

After a landslide, Lu Zhao, a modern civil engineer, transmigrated into a chaotic era and became a frozen corpse among a crowd of refugees.

Other transmigrators brought soldiers, provisions, or divine powers. He brought only his skills in building roads and bridges, stacking walls, and digging canals, along with a cold prompt in his mind: Construction makes you stronger.

Starting with three rundown houses in Blackstone Village, he built canals, opened a paper workshop, established trade routes, and founded a school. He turned a poor village into a county town, made his way from the county to the provincial capital, and ultimately claimed the world. In a chaotic era where people were dying left and right, he would pave a road through it that people could actually travel.
