Great Ming: I Transport Supplies from the Modern Era

I used to find the stories quite interesting. One day, I was discussing with a friend what it would be like to travel back to ancient times. But after some debate, we realized that as an ordinary person, you'd be nothing. Did they really think papermaking was just about crushing and boiling things? Did they really think refined salt was simply a matter of filtering water and evaporating it?

You've narrowed your options. A middleman caught in the late Ming Dynasty, you're doomed if you don't build an army and rebel. Don't underestimate the ancients. Your resources are of dubious origin, and you have no foundation. Seeking refuge is unrealistic. You have no choice but to become independent, especially with this so-called "gratitude system." Even peacefully hiding in a corner is impossible.

With this awesome cheat code, wouldn't it be better to hand over control of a country? You could conquer the whole world, with a huge population, abundant resources, and unexploited mines. Wouldn't technological development be much faster? You might even be able to build a Dyson sphere. If you developed your own power, you'd only ever be an emperor, at best. What else could you do?

Brother Wai Ou, to develop industry, we must first solve the power problem. Power is easy to solve; in modern times, we can just make steam engines and electric motors, and then buy lathes, milling machines, drilling machines, and punch presses. To solve the weapon problem, we can buy samples in modern times and bring them to the late Ming Dynasty to imitate them.

Well said! The emperor guards the nation's gates, the monarch dies for the state! How magnificent was the Ming Dynasty! This is the main reason everyone loves the Ming Dynasty! And what about my Qing Dynasty? Putting everything else aside, did your monarchs die for their country? The last emperor was forced to abdicate by Yuan Shikai; you could say he was just a child, not understanding.

The writing is so illogical. How can an ancient person learn modern medicine just by looking at a tablet? How can a modern person who is neither a literature major nor a history major pretend to be a Ming Dynasty scholar? You really underestimate ancient scholars!

The law of time travel: the first person you save must be a woman—a mother and daughter, sisters, a little girl, or a married woman. Remember this, it's a key point, it'll be on the exam!!

Given the protagonist's immense advantages during the chaotic late Ming Dynasty, why would he need to engage in scheming and double-crossing with a country bumpkin? Is he just padding the word count or testing his intelligence?

There are a few things to pay special attention to regarding the late Ming Dynasty. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, famine was severe, especially in the northwest. Apart from landlords, gentry, nobles and officials, no one was spared from hunger. If you went out alone, you might be eaten by people who were starving on the road.

After reading dozens of chapters, returning to the late Ming Dynasty isn't about preparing for rebellion, but rather planning to cooperate with the court? It's utterly absurd. Leaving aside whether the suspicious and incompetent Chongzhen Emperor could tolerate you, even if he could, the entire court was already corrupt, the land annexation problem was in its late stages, there were numerous…
