[Alternate History] [Farming] [Comeback] [Unifying the Realm]
In the Great Ding famine, all the able-bodied men of Jiankou Village are conscripted for labor, only to be caught in a mudslide. Forty-seven young men are wiped out!
The only surviving able-bodied man in the village is Lu An, a notorious local loafer who sold off his family's property to dodge conscription.
In a single night, the pretty widows left alone in their empty homes can't sit still. They knock on his door in the middle of the night with food and bedding, fighting for the chance to warm his bed and bear him an heir!
Lu An, who has transmigrated here, has just finished chewing on a rough-grain flatbread surrounded by widows when government runners break down the door:
He has ten days to build a border relay station on the spot, or everyone in the village will lose their heads!
After layer upon layer of deductions and embezzlement, the budget he receives is a pitiful hundred copper coins, not even enough to buy a single main beam!
Just as all hope seems lost, the [Family-Building System] activates!
Marrying a beautiful wife and sharing a wedding night can dramatically boost his strength, agility, and constitution, while unlocking powerful, exclusive fate-given abilities!
Short on money? Building materials? Workers?
Lu An gives a cold smile, dons the uniform of a relay-station courier, and takes charge, bringing the whole village to heel.
He vows to build his own power and fight for dominion over the realm, step by step, amid the famine and chaos!
