Commoner Shi Buyi 草根石布衣
In The Memorial on the Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang wrote, “Your servant was originally a commoner, tilling the fields in Nanyang.” Scholars and strategists throughout the land humbly call themselves commoners. This is the spirit of the commoner: withdraw, and cultivate oneself; step forward, and serve the world. It has been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years. But by the year 2000: “Occupation?” “…Military strategist, aide, adviser?” “Are you kidding me? What er

House Dad’s Literary Life 奶爸的文艺人生
“Daddy!” He had just transmigrated to a parallel world when a sweet little girl called him Dad. Yang Yi was completely dumbfounded.

Gu Dao's Immortal Life 顾道长生
I thought this was going to be a realistic urban-life story, but then the setting changed without warning! Spiritual qi revival, the return of Taoist arts: this is probably a story about modern civilization transforming into a cultivation civilization. This book still takes its time.

The Gourmet’s Supplier 美食供应商
“In the distant East, there is a strange little restaurant that has turned down Michelin three-star ratings several times. It’s expensive: a bowl of egg fried rice with soup costs RMB 288. Oh, I forgot, it also comes with a plate of pickles. Even so, plenty of people line up for a table. The restaurant doesn’t take reservations. You have to queue in person, and countless people fly in on private jets just to get in line. Of course, there’s no place to park your plane or your car. The service is

Pretty Interesting Historical Novels
I sincerely recommend great books that will take you through the landscapes of the past and let you explore the long river of history. These are all interesting historical novels about saving the nation in times of crisis, changing history, and achieving remarkable things. They span parallel worlds, ancient China, and old Europe, each with a different social setting. This is a list devoted to historical fiction, so please don't recommend other genres.
Some Books I Think Are Pretty Good
I've been reading for six years. I'd say I've moved beyond the beginner stage and am now an intermediate reader. Here are some books I think are pretty good. I have no idea what's going on with the review process lately. I added a new book and it didn't pass review, then I found out one of the blurbs for an older recommendation was the problem. Anyway, hardly anyone looks at this list, so I'm done writing blurbs. Having to keep changing them is annoying.
