南粤工业革命指南
There Is Only White Hair In The Fair World
Chen Yue, a scholar of Qing history, traveled to the 20th year of Qianlong's reign, outside Guangzhou. He knew this was a prosperous time. He also knew that in eighty years the foreigners would come with ironclad ships to kick down the door. He started working as a bookkeeper, weaving, mining, running a geological school, and building a steam engine. He translated this industrial formula into a language that Emperor Qianlong could understand and copied it step by step. This time, we won't let it go.
