Lin Chuan gives up his high-paying job and returns to his hometown to grow red ginseng, leading Dashan Village out of poverty. Just before the harvest, village bully Zhao Daqiang spreads rumors that Lin Chuan has pocketed the price difference and incites the villagers to break their contracts. Heartbroken, Lin Chuan terminates the cooperation and takes his team to work with Liujia Village instead. Blindly following the crowd, the villagers of Dashan Village destroy his planting fields and contaminate the water supply, ultimately losing everything and regretting their actions too late. Zhao Daqiang and his son repeatedly devise malicious schemes, but Lin Chuan easily foils them all. Lin Chuan upgrades his medicinal herb processing techniques, exposes a foreign company's conspiracy to steal core technology, earns tens of millions, and protects the foundations of traditional Chinese medicine. In the end, he builds a major agricultural base and takes his business overseas.
