Ni Shuhe, who suffers from a terminal illness and has only a short time left to live, unexpectedly binds to a boat-trading business system that lets her travel to ancient Qinglu Town, where locust plagues are raging and food is scarce. By selling delicious food, she earns revenue that can be exchanged for life points. Starting with a single bowl of rice noodle soup, she befriends Jiang Xiaoyu's poor but kindhearted family and establishes two-way trade in local mountain products and grain. She refuses the forceful recruitment attempts of the powerful, gradually upgrades her vessel to unlock the night market in Jin County, introduces new food categories such as grilled skewers, and builds a thriving business with her companions. As she navigates crises and stays true to herself, she grows as a person and writes a legendary tale of food and commerce spanning two worlds.
