The Incompetent Veterinarian

He is a veterinarian who somehow winds up in ancient times. On battlefields engulfed in war and in plague zones ravaged by disease, he puts his modern veterinary knowledge to work and sparks a medical revolution. He is also a crooked merchant, full of harebrained schemes for raking in money. He builds 11, sells salt on the black market, digs canals: if it turns a profit, he wants in. At the same time, he is a fervent Chinese nationalist, determined to rebuild a mighty Chinese empire with nothing but the fire in his heart. Historical figures such as Huang Taiji, Yuan Chonghuan, and the Chongzhen Emperor leap vividly from the page, reimagined in new guises and with new personalities. The story overturns history, portraying the Ming-era social, economic, and cultural landscape as the author sees it, while revealing both the ugliness and nobility of human nature. This work has drawn criticism and faced all kinds of hardships. But a veterinarian is still just a veterinarian, not a perfect man. He is lecherous, yet loyal; he likes to brag, yet has the courage to admit his mistakes; he is greedy, yet knows when enough is enough. He has all the flaws of an ordinary man, but also a sincere and kind heart.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! “I have no experience!” That is what Asen is always saying. What does he need experience in? Love? Adventure? Or building a kingdom? As Li Kaiyang’s son, he inherited his mother’s Western features completely, but in temperament he takes after his father, and looks set to surpass him. To escape an arranged marriage, or so he claims, Asen has made a habit of running away from home. This time, by sheer chance, he ends up aboard a mysterious cargo ship, the Blue Whale, and his fate changes forever. Seeking excitement is his goal, and the pursuit of challenges is his driving force. Even after crossing oceans, Asen never forgets that he is Li Kaiyang’s son. He carries on his father’s fine traditions and makes Viagra a worldwide sensation. A generation of sea-roving pirates is born on the raging ocean, while the Sun King’s banner flies forever over Europe’s war-torn lands. “I have no experience!” With those words, Asen proves through his legendary exploits that he is truly the undisputed king of adventure. For the woman he loves, Princess Sofia of Spain, he resolutely leads his companions onto French soil and begins his journey to conquer Europe. The Holy Roman Empire, England, Italy, and Spain: Asen and his Sacred France find themselves at war with almost all of Europe. Danger closes in from every side, with a sheer precipice behind him. What will Asen choose? How will he become the Sun King, the King of France, and the King of Europe, acclaimed by the world?
