Su Lingyue, a shrewd businessman who was targeted by the dock boss Li Laohei. Li Laohei set up a "freight bureau" to lure goods at low prices and resell them halfway, falsely claiming to be "robbed." However, what he didn't know was that Su Lingyue had already seen through this clumsy trick. She took advantage of the scheme and sent out a batch of "fake silk" printed with special dark patterns, and secretly sent people to follow her, just to catch him.
But the water at this pier is deep, and there is still a game within a game! Li Laohei's men have been bribed by Shanghai gangs, and they plan to kidnap Li Laohei when they resell "fake silk" and keep the money for themselves. Seeing the mantis stalking the cicada with the oriole behind, Su Lingyue unexpectedly glimpsed a deeper conspiracy. She decisively changed her strategy and notified Li Laohei in advance before the gang took action. The condition was that she cooperated with the government to testify against the gang and get meritorious service!
A thrilling storm on the pier thus kicked off. Fake silk, real strategy, black and white, and a three-party game, in the end, the gang was arrested, Li Laohei's sentence was commuted, Su Lingyue's real silk arrived safely, and the safe transportation line of the dock was accidentally opened. Let's see how Su Lingyue works step by step, stirs up the storm as a merchant, and finally becomes the behind-the-scenes controller of the maritime trade route!
