    The first three are period farming novels (true farming stories), featuring a strong female protagonist who truly starts from the bottom. The writing is good and captivating. The fourth book is a masterpiece, featuring a perfect male protagonist who single-handedly drives the entire society to leap forward in ancient times! The straightforward narrative style, however, kept me hooked!

    Starting as a commoner, he transmigrates into the body of a lowly monk, his starting point similar to that of Zhu Yuanzhang (the Hongwu Emperor). He gradually rises to power through theft and borrowed technological inventions, and has now begun electrolyzing brine. The necessary minerals include manganese, asbestos, quartz, borax, and kaolin, with coal and iron ore being indispensable. To obtain such abundant minerals, he must cooperate with the government, supplying the emperor with 20-30% of his products to secure protection. In short, the protagonist's life is incredibly smooth, making it a truly satisfying read with over a dozen wives.
