They weren't struck by lightning when they were transported to a chaotic world; it was their own choice. Some wanted to become kings and dominate, some wanted to relieve the people from their suffering, and some wanted to use their own strength to prevent the last barbaric conquest of civilization, thereby rewriting the history of the Chinese nation. Of course, some people only dream of having multiple wives and concubines, living an extremely decadent life that is unattainable in the modern world. This group of ordinary people, each with their own ambitions and aspirations, lacked the physical prowess of tigers, the aura of kings, and any magical advantages. They were crammed haphazardly onto an old ship, possessing only modern machines, technology, and various theories. These time travelers, harboring ambitions, dreams, and ideals unattainable in the modern world, set off towards the chaotic end of the Ming Dynasty. Destination: Hainan.

Shen Zhezi arrives in the early Eastern Jin Dynasty, transforming into the son of a wealthy family in Jiangnan. He owns thousands of acres of fertile land, immense wealth, and a large retinue of servants—a rare high-end transmigration story. Unfortunately, his father is a habitual rebel. The southward migration of the elite and the chaos of the Five Barbarian Tribes marked a tragic end for China and a lament for the Han dynasty. The powerful and influential families are unreliable; the north is wicked and the south is corrupt—two nests of bad seeds, only seeking to live a life of ease. This fertile land of China, the homeland of the Han people, will not be allowed to be used by barbarians!
