Synopsis

Su Tong, twenty-eight, quit her job in a major city and returned to her hometown, a small county town, where she leased two hundred mu of barren hills and began her life as a farmer. Everyone said she was crazy. Why would a graduate of a prestigious university turn down a job paying half a million yuan a year to go farm in the mountains?

Three years later, the brand she founded, Tonghuayuan, had become the province’s largest supplier of organic produce, with annual sales exceeding one hundred million yuan. Her orchards, tea gardens, and breeding farms had grown into one vast, modern agricultural demonstration park renowned throughout the region.

But success attracts trouble.

On the night she won the title of Provincial Agricultural Leader, a letter of accusation arrived at the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. It accused her company of fraudulently claiming government subsidies, using banned pesticides, and employing child labor. Soon after, her partners pulled out, the bank called in its loans, and suppliers demanded payment. A carefully orchestrated siege had quietly begun.

What surprised her even more was that the person behind it all was her former fiancé, the man who had walked away three years earlier when she needed his support most.

Only then did Su Tong understand that the more successful you are, the more people want to drag you down. But she also knew that true strength wasn’t about never falling. It was about rising from the dirt again every time you did.

This is a story about the land, about dreams, and about how one woman holds on to her roots through the storm.
