Danzeng, a young Tibetan man struggling with poverty, accidentally discovers his grandfather's old mountain-hunting notebook and copper hoe. He learns that the family's old horse, Chifeng, and marmot, Huidun, were actually his grandfather's mountain-hunting companions. With their help, he successively discovers rare mountain treasures such as cistanche, black-green jade, and white lingzhi mushrooms. He meets Shen Qingyao, a mountain-produce merchant, and they join forces to start a business. The antagonist Ma Zhankui repeatedly tries to sabotage them, but his schemes are thwarted. Danzeng leases East Mountain and establishes a cooperative, upholding his ancestors' teachings of respecting nature and cherishing its gifts. When he discovers a valley filled with treasures, he voluntarily closes the mountain to protect it. He leads the entire village to prosperity and finds lasting happiness with Shen Qingyao.
