Zhang Liu is escorting a backup seed bank to a space station when they are attacked along the way. Their craft crashes into the time dimension of a black hole, sending them back thousands of years to the State of Qin. They plunge straight into a valley at the northern foot of Mount Li, right in front of the young King of Qin, Ying Zheng, who has slipped out of the palace for a change of scenery!
In 247 BC, Ying Zheng has just ascended the throne. At the height of his ambition, he begins to grow estranged from his mother, is constrained by Chancellor Lü, and faces Empress Dowager Huayang's support for Chengjiao's bid for power. Beset by troubles at home and abroad, he is forced to tread carefully.
That year, Zhang Liu transmigrates to the State of Qin. Unfamiliar with everything, with no way home and every step a struggle.
So the two strike a deal. You help me fill the granaries and achieve my ambitions, and I'll use the imperial mausoleum as a cover while helping you find your way home.
Once you study agriculture, you're an agriculturalist for life.
Zhang Liu transmigrates to the State of Qin and discovers that farming is still their lot in life.
A farmer in body, a farmer in soul: farmers can rise above the rest, too.
The soil holds both a jade-like beauty and a golden house!
[Reading Notes]
1. The female lead's love interest is not the First Emperor, our venerable ancestor.
2. Zhao Gao and Hu Hai won't be whitewashed, but they won't be killed off right away, either.
3. This is an alternate-history derivative with plenty of original inventions. Please don't scrutinize the historical details. Pretty please
Theme: A farmer in body, a farmer in soul.
