In the sixth year of Kaiyuan of the Tang Dynasty, the Battle of Xiaobolu broke out. His father died in the battle and his mother died of illness. Dou Yi became an orphan and was adopted by his uncle. During the days when he was with his cousin Chunxue and opposed his cousin Du Jing, Dou Yi became friends with the down-and-out prince Ou Hema, the wandering artist Gongsun Hong and others. As a gift from the Holy Spirit, he was granted an exception to attend the Imperial Academy, the highest institution of higher learning in the Tang Dynasty. However, he sadly retired from the Imperial College and eventually became a business tycoon in the Western Market. Dou Yi was poor, but he was good at spotting business opportunities in the most inconspicuous places such as elm seeds, locust seeds, and cesspools. Dou Yi, who was frightened by poverty, was opportunistic and profit-seeking. After being imprisoned, he suddenly woke up and changed his path, from pursuing personal profit to rejuvenating the country through industry. Since then, a helpless orphan has experienced many ups and downs, and has gradually grown into a business tycoon who can turn his hands into clouds and turn his hands into rain, and is known as Dou Bancheng.
