An accident left Lin Ziyu, a scholar in Qingshan County, with only two shabby houses and a lot of debt. When everyone thought he was going to be impoverished, he set his sights on the most humble soybean.
Without a golden finger in the system or a prominent background, Lin Ziyu relied on his unyielding determination and wisdom beyond his time to make a fool out of the ordinary dried tofu. The secret recipe of dried tofu wafts far away, which not only revitalized the business of Liu Rumei, a pretty widow in a small teahouse that was on the verge of closing down, but also attracted the covetousness of the Li family, a wealthy businessman in the county, who signed a sky-high contract!
