A blizzard is coming. Vegetable vendor Zhou Licheng returns to his village to collect cucumbers, offering two yuan two. The whole village hoards their vegetables waiting for prices to rise, except for Old Liu, who is burdened with debt, grits his teeth and sells out his two sheds of cucumbers, becoming the laughingstock of the entire village. That very night, the blizzard strikes the village, causing sheds to collapse and vegetables to rot. After the snow, prices rise to four yuan two, but the roads are blocked and the vegetables are old, leaving those who waited for high prices with total losses. Only Old Liu clutches his hard-earned money, pays off his debts, and sleeps peacefully. Money not in hand is just someone else's count.

Badai salju akan segera tiba, pedagang sayur Zhou Licheng kembali ke desanya untuk membeli timun dengan harga pembukaan dua yuan dua. Seluruh desa menahan sayuran mereka menunggu harga naik, kecuali Old Liu yang terlilit banyak utang, menggertakkan giginya dan menjual habis timun di dua kebunnya, dan dijadikan bahan tertawaan oleh seluruh desa. Malam itu badai salju menghantam desa, merubuhkan kebun dan membusukkan sayuran; setelah salju harga naik menjadi empat yuan dua, tetapi jalanan ditutup dan sayuran menjadi tua, membuat mereka yang menunggu harga tinggi kehilangan segalanya. Hanya Old Liu yang menggenggam uang di tangannya, melunasi utangnya, dan tidur dengan nyenyak. Uang yang belum di tangan hanyalah hitungan orang lain.
