"Personal Narrative" （ "Personal Narrative of Travels in the Tropical Regions of the New World") is the masterpiece of the great German scientist Alexander von Humboldt. This book details his legendary scientific expedition with botanist Bombland, conducted between 1799 and 1804, venturing deep into the Orinoco River basin, the Amazon River basin, and parts of Cuba . This monumental work not only laid the foundation for modern geography, ecology, and meteorology, but also, with its grand natural aesthetics, has inspired countless generations, becoming an enlightenment bible for scientific and literary giants such as Darwin and Thoreau. This is a carefully selected and annotated selection of Humboldt's Personal Narratives, rearranged specifically for modern readers, and includes more than 500 footnotes on historical context, European figures, and Latin American geography.

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio?

Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through.

"Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
