Su Yao, a graduate of modern agricultural science, is transformed into an orphan girl from Hongxing Village in the 1970s. Her family is destitute and only has her elderly grandfather to keep her company. The reclaimed wasteland is coveted by the village bully, the tiger.
With her knowledge of modern agriculture, she led her grandfather to improve the soil and use herbs to repel insects, so that good crops could grow on the wasteland. She was not timid when faced with difficulties, and used the power of the villagers to fight against the village tyrants and stabilize their livelihood. She made dried sweet potatoes, pickles and other food, which were sold from the town supply and marketing cooperative to county restaurants, and she also joined forces with neighboring villages to launch the "Suji" brand.
By opening up wasteland, planting land, breeding, and processing, Su Yao not only allowed her grandfather to live a stable life, but also led the villagers to increase their income, making "Su Ji" a famous brand. This is the story of her getting rich by farming with her hands and wisdom in the 1970s, and living a life of passion and hope.
