Fuliang in Troubled Times

Fuliang in Troubled Times **Core Settings** In the last years of the Great Yong Dynasty, the earth's veins collapsed and floods flooded the sky. The world has become a wasteland of "water and land", and the survivors live on isolated mountains and towers. The old order collapsed, and aristocratic families monopolized the remaining "pure land" and "rice seeds", treating the refugees as though they were nothing. The protagonist Li Ce travels through time and becomes the son of an exiled criminal official, and is in a desperate swamp known as the "Fish Burial Mouth". He must use modern civil engineering knowledge to build the first "floating city" in the mud before the tide of beasts and famine arrives, breaking the family's monopoly on survival resources. -- **[Introduction to the work]** Floods submerged the earth, and civilization retreated to isolated islands. This is an era swallowed by turbulent waves. The nobles of the aristocratic families are high in the pure land of the clouds, with grain and steel in their hands, and they regard the refugees as nothing more than grass. Li Ce, the son of an exiled criminal minister, woke up in a desperate swamp called "Yukou". Facing the flood that is about to burst, the bloodthirsty beasts, and the cruel overseer who wants to fill the living people into the pile foundation, he has no spiritual roots and cannot cultivate immortality. He only has a rusty shovel and civil engineering knowledge that transcends the times. "Since there is no way for people to survive in this world, then I will build a road to the sky in this mud!" From weaving bamboo cages and filling rocks to build dams, to firing cement to seal off river mouths; from building floating cities on the water to erecting steel floating beams across natural chasms. Li Ce led a group of abandoned refugees on the wasteland, standing shoulder to shoulder with the gods in a mortal body. Not practicing immortality, only building embankments; not practicing swords, only making steel. Let's see how he builds an unsinkable steel empire in this troubled world.
