The Poor Scholar's Rise to Power

In his previous life, he was a mechanical engineer. Now he's transmigrated into a down-on-his-luck scholar from a poor family. His home is bare from the start, and his lovely wife is so hungry she's eating grass roots.

Lin Hai pulls out a fishing net and whips up a firearm, leading hunters to wipe out bandits and destroy their strongholds, then raking in a fortune!

The empress dowager needs money? He sells liquor, newspapers, and lottery tickets, bringing in gold by the day!

Enemy cavalry is at the border? He pulls out cannons and grenades without a second thought, blasting the enemy until they question their own existence!

From a poor scholar everyone mocked to a powerful minister who holds sway over the court, Lin Hai has only one goal: to make my woman the happiest woman in the world!
