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

Transmigrating to the final years of a dynasty, Fang Xiaoman finds an emperor who has lost all sense of decency. At home, he exiles loyal ministers and confiscates their property for daring to remonstrate. Abroad, he imposes massive labor levies, forcing the people to transport rare stones, treasures, exotic flowers, and plants to build pleasure palaces and waterways. His selfish demands drive countless people to their deaths, and resentment spreads everywhere. Fang Xiaoman is born into an ordinary farming family in Taoli Village. At first, she thinks she's been handed a story about farming her way to wealth. But then disaster after disaster strikes, and her father is conscripted by corrupt officials. She realizes she's actually in a refugee-fleeing story. 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 her coma, the world has changed completely. Mountains and forests surge up from the earth, giant trees reach the skies, and every plant and animal she sees has grown enormous, as if pumped full of hormones, and become fiercely aggressive. It's as though the world has returned to prehistoric times overnight, with humanity reduced to the weakest species. Heh. So this is a prehistoric survival story after all. Of course, what happens next teaches her that she was thinking far too simply. She battles monsters and stockpiles supplies like crazy, finally upgrading her territory from the lowest-level prehistoric civilization to the Stone Age, then an agrarian civilization, and at last a modern technological civilization. With cola in one hand and milk tea in the other, she watches movies on her phone and even gazes out at an interstellar civilization. When she heads into space, she can't help exclaiming, “Now this is living!”
