As scorching summer heat arrives, Su Xiaohui, who has returned to her hometown to start a business, brings a refrigerated truck into the village and offers to buy nectarines directly from farmers at the highest price in the county: four yuan per jin. She also warns everyone in advance about an approaching hailstorm and urges the villagers to sell their fruit in time to avoid losses. However, Zhao Deshun is swayed by Boss Zhou's empty promise of seven yuan per jin. He leads the villagers in smearing and obstructing Su Xiaohui, while the entire village stubbornly waits for the promised high-paying buyer, dreaming of making a fortune. Boss Zhou deliberately stalls, intending to exploit the scorching heat and hailstorm to force prices down and buy up the rotting fruit at rock-bottom prices. As the weather warnings escalate, large quantities of nectarines become soft and rotten, and hailstorms devastate the orchards. In the aftermath, Su Xiaohui helps the village build hail-protection nets, replant fruit trees, establish a fruit and vegetable cooperative, and develop a complete agricultural processing industry chain.
