In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the salt administration in Huaihe and Huaihe became corrupt, and the salt industry became a money-printing machine that various forces competed for. Cheng Yanqiu is the son of a down-and-out salt merchant in Yangzhou. His father, Cheng Yuanshan, died mysteriously while transporting 100,000 yuan of salt. His family business was taken away and his fiancée broke off the engagement. Three years later, Cheng Yanqiu returned to Yangzhou with half of the jade pendant left by his father, and discovered that his father's death involved salt government officials, Huizhou merchant tycoons, and even royal family members.
