Chen Xu, a modern poverty alleviation cadre, traveled to Xiaohe Village, Yongfeng County, parallel to the ancient Yan Dynasty, when a once-in-a-century drought hit. Awakening the "Poverty Alleviation System of All Realms", he rescued the heroine Lin Xiuer who was about to be sold at the beginning. In order to repay the favor of saving her life, Lin Xiuer and her two younger sisters "forcibly married" Chen Xu. From then on, the male protagonist was forced to support a family of four during the famine years, and gradually used the system's capabilities to arm the village, take in the refugees, and finally establish a new order.
