At thirty-five, Lu Cheng, a key employee at a major tech company, had tasted all the "civilization" modern society had to offer.
His startup cofounder vanished with the company's money, while his wife, a master's graduate, moved their assets and set him up with millions in debt.
Utterly despairing, he returned to his old house. When he opened a wooden cabinet, he fell into a primitive snowy forest, where a tribe of savages took him in.
"Shi" shared his roasted meat with him. Qingya saw him as her only source of support. The chief took a beast's attack meant for him and, with his dying breath, tremblingly entrusted Lu Cheng with the token that symbolized his position.
He brought salt, antibiotics, and all kinds of tools back to the wilderness and began building civilization within the tribe.
In the modern world, he opened an upscale wild-game dining house. One taste of his salmon, prepared in the original broth with cold water, cured a provincial capital tycoon and sent shockwaves through the entire upper class!
In the modern world, he is an unemployed nobody betrayed by his wife and business partner.
In another world, he is the cultural forefather who lit the spark of civilization!
When his unfaithful ex-wife kneels at his door, weeping and begging to get back together...
Lu Cheng doesn't even open it. "Don't bother with the act. My eyes see only the vast mountains and rivers, and my people."
