   These are all my favorite infrastructure-building and farming novels. The first one is currently updating; it's a post-apocalyptic farming story with some interesting settings. The author has a fresh, charming feel to them and seems very sincere. The second one is Western fantasy; there seem to be fewer farming elements, but the content is still good. It's a pity that it keeps going on hiatus. The third one is ancient Chinese fiction, already completed, by Xikang.
