Waiting for the Big Shot to Carry Me Again Today

(Dear readers, my new hard drive has arrived. I'll try to finish a chapter tonight. ( ﹡?o?﹡ ))

Liu Qingxiao transmigrated, and he brought a mission with him. The only problem was that he had no idea what his mission was.

But that didn't matter, because he was about to have his entire clan executed.

In the twenty-eighth year of Guangqing, the crown prince died, and the emperor was overcome with grief.

The court was suspended for a month, sending shock waves throughout the land.

An imperial edict ordered a thorough investigation. The case implicated a great many people, and many were punished along with the guilty. Every official was apprehensive and fearful, treading on thin ice.

As it happened, Liu Qingxiao's new identity was that of a collateral relative of the Marquis of Ding'an, whose family had been implicated.

Fortunately, the special skill he received as a bonus for transmigrating was activated. Liu Qingxiao boldly claimed to be a prophet and directed the marquis's household to spread rumors, forge ties with officials, and fabricate evidence... At last, he managed to save his own life.

At the same time, he caught the attention of another person.

Tan Xiaoyue was a powerhouse who had once saved her progress. With the double buff of transmigrating and being reborn, she noticed the unexpected change as soon as she arrived in the capital.

"Boss, what should we do?" Liu Qingxiao asked cautiously.

"Turn the world upside down and forge glory for us all," she replied softly.

Liu Qingxiao: Got it. My mission is to change the course of history.

Tan Xiaoyue: I need to give my fellow countryman a goal, so he doesn't get depressed.

"Then let's bring the Industrial Revolution to the Great Shun!" The transmigrator placed a piece on the chessboard.

Hybrid rice, seed drills, and crop rotation. A reliable food supply made the people of the land grateful for their blessings.

Steam engines, spinning machines, and coke-smelting techniques. The roar of factories produced mountains of goods, bringing cotton, linen, and ironware into ordinary households.

This is a heartwarming story of finding a kindred spirit in a foreign land, as well as the chronicle of a transmigrator rising to rule a different world.

[Mini scene]

Liu Qingxiao: "Boss, aren't these reforms happening too quickly?"

Tan Xiaoyue starts up a steam engine: "They won't seem so rushed once the bullets have had time to fly."

Liu Qingxiao: "But the aristocratic clans..."

Tan Xiaoyue pulls out a flintlock: "Should I persuade them physically?"
