Reincarnated as a Porter in Turbulent Times: I'd Rather Make Lipstick for My Girl Than Be Emperor

share time: 2026-03-06 12:34:08

Modern office worker Lin Yang dies from overwork and wakes up as Lin A'gou, a lowly porter in a war-torn era. Chased immediately for accidentally taking a warlord's grain bag, he uses high school physics to make a repeating crossbow and civil engineering knowledge to build a fortress—successfully fending off the attackers! His "modern miracles" make him a legend among refugees, attracting bandits (after his crossbow recipe), warlords (offering him a military advisor role), and even someone kneeling to beg him to be emperor! But Lin Yang only cares about Ruan, the girl from the neighboring胭脂 shop—she wants a smudge-proof lipstick, so he's busy boiling sugarcane for the base, mixing cinnabar for color, and secretly testing shades to avoid mistakes! When a crowd begs him to "ascend the throne," Lin Yang holds up his homemade lipstick and laughs: "Emperors read memorials—I need to test this new shade on my girl!"
