Ancient text restorer Wen Bai unexpectedly awakens the memories in his bloodline and inherits a thousand years of wisdom from his ancestor, Wen Suchen. He returns to his hometown to start a business, using The Exploitation of the Works of Nature to revive endangered ancient rice, The Compendium of Materia Medica to decipher the secrets of traditional Chinese medicine, and The Dream Pool Essays to recreate the super-material Yu Ink. Yucun rises to become the Qilin Pavilion, attracting a ruthless assault from the international capital group Olympus. From agricultural wars to battles over chips, from contests of public opinion to life-and-death confrontations, Wen Bai leads his team in standing firm against international conspiracies, drawing strength from Chinese civilization. This is a battle to revive a civilization across time: carrying the past forward and bringing it into the present, with a patriot without equal.
