Transmigrating to Ancient Times to Take the Civil Service Exam and Fight Poverty

A new story is currently updating. Everyone is welcome to add it to your collection. The extras for this story are in the author's collection, "Extras: Transmigrating to Ancient Times for the Imperial Exams and Poverty Relief." Updates are slow, and I'll gradually fix typos in the story afterward. Xie Ning is a small-time blogger who accidentally transmigrates to ancient times and becomes Xie Jining, the son of a poor farming family. The Xie family is so poor they treasure farm manure. Banqiao, where they live, is just as impoverished. Families from two clans fight with weapons over irrigation water for every few feet of land. Huai'an County, where Banqiao is located, is even poorer: the land lies barren, no one farms anymore, and people even sell their sons and daughters. Seeing this state of affairs, all Xie Jining wants to do is beg for a golden finger. The Transmigration Deity: Don't you already have one? Xie Jining, confused: I don't!!! I've spent years looking for a spirit spring, a pocket dimension, a System, or an old grandpa, and I don't have any of those. The Transmigration Deity: Your memories are the greatest golden finger of all. Besides, you've apprenticed yourself to a renowned teacher, so you can study and become an official! Xie Jining suddenly sees the light. He studies hard, takes the imperial exams, changes his fate, and makes it to the pinnacle of life. Exam topics for future generations: The Daoxiang Academy he founded still has a lasting influence and remains a dream destination for many. The inscriptions in the park he oversaw the construction of preserve the handwriting of hundreds of famous figures. The collection of inscriptions is the finest folk museum of its kind. His Xiejiawan development model has been emulated in many places. He brought a city back from the brink of death. He never married, yet today he is the man women most want to marry.

"After Leaving the Entertainment Industry, I Returned Home with an Environmental Protection System to Farm" blurb: When Xie Miaomiao opened her phone and saw her own name on all the major apps, she thought, I can't work another day at this job. I can't spend another day in the entertainment industry. "Ding! Environmental Protection System binding in progress." When Xie Miaomiao first returned to Yunyan, everyone thought it was just a temporary visit. No one expected the Xie family to settle down for good, opening a bed-and-breakfast, a farm, an orchard, and a sanatorium. Their products are now sold all across the country. They not only made their own family prosperous, but also helped the local people thrive, turning Yunyan Village into a place everyone dreams of living in. At first, when Xie Miaomiao announced she was leaving the entertainment industry to go home and farm, and start livestreaming, Her antis: Pah! What a disgrace. Liu Shui has fallen so low she's become an internet celebrity. Before long, production crews began coming to Yunyan Village to film variety shows, with guests including award-winning actresses and popular stars. Xie Miaomiao made the official news, and viewers snapped up everything in her livestream shop. Her antis: Why can't I get these grapes and peaches? Why can't they ship the fish? If it weren't such a hassle, I'd contact customer service. Ugh, I guess I'll have to go to Yunyan Village to get the fresh stuff. PS: There is a male lead, but not much romance. Theme: Education can change your fate.
