(Ensemble transmigration, major nation-building.)
In the twelfth year of the Wenhe era, the nation is in peril and its people are weak. By imperial decree, the Imperial Observatory is revising the Register of Extraordinary People. Across the two capitals and thirteen provinces, officials must record every extraordinary person who has transmigrated from a mysterious future age, assess their talents, and put their strengths to use.
People from every corner of the land are emerging: cooks, writers of romantic tales, winemakers... Each has a talent, but none of them seems useful for much.
One day, an official at the Imperial Observatory yawns as he looks at the five young people below. Licking his brush and opening the register, he asks languidly, "What can you do?"
Jiang Lin: "I'm no expert, but I know a little about military strategy."
Oh? A promising general. The official rubs the sleep from his eyes and asks the next person.
Wan Jiacheng: "I'm a craftsman. If it can be taken apart, I can build it, whether it's a tiny little device or a massive ship that swallows waves."
Now that's an extraordinary talent! The official sits up straight. "And you, you, you?"
The bespectacled girl below smiles. "I'm Gu Jiaqi. I farm, and I've already bred the first batch of high-yield rice."
Wu Du jumps in. "I can predict the weather! Wind, thunder, rain, and water, auspicious dates, the movements of the heavens: the four seasons follow a pattern."
What talent! Every one of them is a treasure! The official's eyes widen as he asks the last person below, "And you?!"
Tang Tutu fidgets nervously with her palm. "My specialty is expensive. The treasury might not be able to afford it... I build cities. I've heard the borderlands have been at war for years. Does His Majesty want a line of steel fortifications built along the frontier?"

How many does it take to revive the empire, build a thousand miles of impregnable defenses, bring peace to the land, and spread the glory of our Huaxia across the seas?
Countless millions.
Tips:
1. The second book in I Can Lift a Cauldron, an ensemble transmigration story with multiple perspectives and a long, sprawling plot.
2. A slow-burn, serious historical drama, not a lighthearted wish-fulfillment romance. The story and romance are given equal weight, with a big mix of business, court politics, bandit suppression, border defense, and infrastructure projects, as the strengths of ancient and modern governance, education, and social customs complement one another.
3. The main couple's romance stays sweet from the previous book into this one. I haven't decided on a secondary couple yet; I'll consider it based on how things go later. If you'd like one, leave a comment.
4. Writing a long novel takes a lot of dedication, and your comments are the author's greatest motivation!
Core message: Those who accomplish great things must have indomitable determination.

Today, I suddenly learned that an author I liked very much had died of cancer in 2021. The time from her serialization to her death was very fast... I hope my wife will not suddenly stop updating for such reasons 😭 😭 I wish my wife all the best.
I started to worry about whether my wife was still alive...
It's been two years and my wife still hasn't come back? Weibo has not been updated either. I am so worried that something will happen.
Madam? Update? Even if you make an announcement saying it's a scam? Otherwise, I will always have hope? I like Tutu very much and want to see more Tutu?
Cast resurrection spell in the comment area: Come back——
Why haven't you updated it? I'm starting to worry about my wife's personal safety.
Mrs. . Madam, there are still more updates! I have been working in a new job for more than three months, and I can buy genuine products without blinking an eye! In the past, I had to spend my savings to buy the genuine version, so I updated it quickly 😭 I really want to see how Tutu's career develops later on.
