Under the blazing sun in Xiangyang Village, Zhao Sihai, dismissed as a local hoodlum and suspected of profiteering and speculation, brings back urgently needed parts for drought-relief water pumps and scarce goods that will earn the village its first fortune. With the help of Tang Sisi, an upright female teacher who serves as financial director, the two embark on a hard-fought business comeback. Using their forward-thinking business strategies, they outmaneuver unscrupulous profiteers at the county supply and marketing cooperative and turn the tables in a high-stakes business battle in the provincial capital, ultimately securing exclusive province-wide distribution rights for high-end electronic products.
