Shen Ruyi, the daughter of a wealthy merchant, marries into the debt-ridden Jing'an Earl's Mansion. She puts her good-for-nothing husband, Li Jingzhou, and all his female confidantes to work, making a fortune through entertainment and metaphysical businesses while crushing her competitor, Baiyun Temple. After accidentally uncovering Prince Qi's conspiracy to rebel, she joins forces with the Imperial Guards' Lu Yan to suppress the rebellion and earn merit, receiving a death-exemption gold token and authorization to conduct imperial commerce. What begins as a marriage of convenience for mutual profit gradually develops into an unspoken understanding between husband and wife, and they ultimately become winners in life.
