After graduating from university, Liu Jiang returns to his hometown, hoping to lead the villagers in growing traditional wrinkled-skin chili peppers. However, his childhood friend Dayong and an outside agricultural supplier, Lao Liu, deceive the villagers into switching to supposedly space-bred chili peppers.

Despite suffering one setback after another, Liu Jiang gradually opens up the market through the superior quality of traditional chili peppers and his honest business practices.
