Farming and Building Wealth in the Water Margin World

An idealist travels back in time. I don't recommend watching it; it's very distasteful. He's as foolish as the Mexican emperor. Everyone else takes 30%, but he only takes 10%. In today's world, he's a kind-hearted boss, but in ancient times, he'd be considered a fool. Those who are easy to talk to never have a good ending. To integrate into society and adopt modern management, you can help the poor occasionally, but rules are rules.

The author believes that rural people are inherently simple and honest, but in reality, the poorer the area, the lower the quality of life. The author has never actually been to the countryside; their way of thinking is completely different. They are particularly fond of taking advantage of small things and never think about returns, only about making more money.

In the original novel, Sun Li is portrayed as a cold-hearted man. While he serves as a military officer in Dengzhou, his younger brother and sister-in-law run an inn outside the city, entertaining guests. The couple, Sun Xin and his wife, find the inn more comfortable than the constraints of their job.

This author is hilarious. Putting Viagra in the Three-Whip Wine is one thing, but then he goes and claims that a 500-year-old wild ginseng is just a piece of wood with no nutritional value whatsoever. It's absolutely laughable! Hahaha!

This book is surprisingly good. The plot idea is good, the writing is decent, and even the main character is not off-putting. It's a good book. Why do I say it counts? The author's idea is great, but the writing style is somewhat contrary to the Water Margin and historical literature. Especially during Hu Sanniang's visit, she didn't seem like a person from ancient times, which was a bit jarring.

The four essential principles for rebellion: food supplies, cement, arsenals, and logistics bases.

Your description?! A thousand tenant farmers can support tens of thousands of soldiers?!

One point is that establishing a women's federation in a feudal society where productivity was still underdeveloped was somewhat fanciful.

In chapter 27, the family's hired laborers conspired with outsiders to rob and kill them. The response was, "You are heartless, but I cannot be unjust; run!"

I think it's pretty good, and the synopsis seems promising, but why the gunpowder and firearms? And, forgive my layman's bluntness, but even the simplest hunting rifle and musket couldn't be made as quickly and easily as depicted in the book. The point of reading *Water Margin* is to see chivalry and martial arts prowess, right? If I want to see firearms, wouldn't it be better to read a mercenary novel?
