Looking North from Yuanjia

The latest plot is unreliable. It should be that the environment dictates the product; the Song Dynasty had the necessary trade conditions for Jiaozi to emerge, not that the idea only came about in the Song Dynasty. Given the environment of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, where people could live and die at any moment, how could Jiaozi possibly become popular?

In the second half of 2025, under the guidance of a group of outstanding authors, a number of excellent works about the Northern and Southern Dynasties began to emerge. Based on the content of this book up to this point, I personally believe it ranks in the upper-middle range among historical novels published in the last year or two.

Seriously, look at it with the eyes of future generations. Except for the Southern Dynasty, which had a chance in the late Sixteen Kingdoms period, there was basically no chance in the later period. It was slim anyway. There were too many civil strife and insufficient mobilization capabilities.

It looks pretty good, no major problems, the writing style and reading experience are quite good. However, the question remains: could the public really accept the introduction of paper money or contracts during the Northern and Southern Dynasties period? Didn't people investing their money consider the risks?

This is my recommendation for the best historical fantasy novel of the year.

It's quite good. I guess it's about a powerful being from outer space reincarnating and achieving enlightenment on Qidian. The writing style is excellent, flowing smoothly and naturally. Finally, I've seen a book written by a human!

I don't understand why so many authors use AI and write according to templates, yet still write the protagonist as an idiot.

I don't really like deleting book reviews, but the comments from the reader who made the suggestion clearly showed some people who hadn't actually read the book and just wanted to show off their extensive knowledge. Out of a sense of responsibility, I'll explain. 1. It's not Jiaozi (paper money).

There's really no need to add a historical passage at the end of each chapter. Each chapter is already short and the plot is slow, so retelling it in classical Chinese just makes it seem even more simplistic.

The work is alright, with a few minor flaws in the details, but most people should be able to accept it. The pacing is a bit fast, but for a new author, a fast pace is a good thing. The author should try their best to finish writing it!
