A Catching Fire Starts a Prairie Fire 1850

In the 30th year of Daoguang's reign, the late Qing Dynasty was in turmoil, foreign powers invaded, and troubled times were about to arise. Chen Yuan, a modern engineering engineer, traveled through time and became the son of a bankrupt Lingnan tea merchant. He had no system plug-ins and only relied on a broken "Hai Guo Tu Zhi" and industrial knowledge to gain a foothold. He tried and made innovations as a commoner, built artillery to fend off the enemy, deeply cultivated industry, iterated industry, and reorganized the local area. He took advantage of the trend and dealt with famous ministers and great powers.
