Pioneering the Wilderness: The Carefree Mountain Farmer

The author's books are remarkably similar. The protagonist starts from scratch, taking in women but doesn't build a harem; instead, he buys them like furniture. Once he's satisfied his hunger and lust, he can't survive and is forced to rebel, embarking on a path to becoming king and ancestor. The author writes this formula with ease, but whenever he tries to break out of it, the story falls apart.

The author has intermittent lapses in judgment, and the stories often start strong but fizzle out, yet I actually persevered and subscribed to all six books. I'm doomed! 🤦‍♂️

I hope he truly lives a carefree life and doesn't involve any cronies.

The interstellar tycoon is still lying on Earth building rockets.

The more I write, the more I resemble a sanctimonious saint; it's neither enjoyable to read nor worth discarding.

It's written too seriously and isn't very readable. Actually, this kind of rural writing is best suited for risqué content; without risqué elements, the rural charm is halved.

Why does this feel like it was written without any thought? Lawrence seems to have the mindset of a time traveler, struggling to adapt to the harsh environment and desperately wanting to quit his job, while the protagonist of this book is purely born with a superhuman physique, more native than the natives themselves. Did they really skip spending any time designing the characters or creating an outline just to make the transition seamless?

When the landlord was free, he would ride his horse around and see a large area of ​​cultivated land. He would drool over it, give some money to the county government, and transfer the land deed to his own name. From then on, the landowner would be burdened with 60% of the land rent, or he would leave the land he had cultivated because he didn't have a pretty wife.

It's definitely better during the development phase. The beginning is mostly enjoyable during development, but it gets boring after the protagonist goes crazy.

While the plots are somewhat similar to others, this author is truly the only one whose plots I can't predict at all. And often, I feel the author simply doesn't want to pad the story; works like *Star Tycoon* and *Five Hundred Guo Jings* have terrible endings. The author has a vivid imagination and good writing style, but the outlines are unstable, often resulting in rushed and poorly executed endings.
