A Feudal Lord’s Daily Life: Building an Estate in Ancient Times

She transmigrates to the final years of a dynasty. The emperor is a monster: at home, he exiles and confiscates the property of loyal officials who dare to remonstrate; abroad, he imposes massive labor levies, forcing the people to haul rare stones, treasures, flowers, and plants to build palaces and waterways for his own pleasure. Countless commoners die, and resentment spreads everywhere.

Fang Xiaoman is born into an ordinary farming family in Taoli Village. At first, she thinks she has landed in a rags-to-riches farming story. But disasters keep striking, and her father is seized by unscrupulous officials. She realizes she is headed for a refugee-survival story. Then, that very day, a meteorite falls from the sky and merges with her body, revealing itself to be a Lord’s Token.

When she wakes from a coma, the world has changed completely.

Forests rise from the earth, towering trees scrape the sky, and every plant and animal she sees has grown to monstrous proportions, as if pumped full of growth hormones. They are all aggressive. It is as if the world has reverted overnight to prehistoric times, with humanity now the weakest species of all.

Well, so this is a prehistoric survival story.

Of course, what happens next shows her that she has oversimplified things. She fights monsters and stockpiles supplies like crazy, finally upgrading her territory from the lowest level of prehistoric civilization through the Stone Age and agricultural civilization, all the way to modern technological civilization. With cola in one hand and milk tea in the other, she plays on her phone and watches movies, even able to gaze out at an interstellar civilization. When she finally ventures into space, she can’t help but sigh, “Now this is the life.”
