Lin Xiao Mu, a graduate student of traditional Chinese medicine, unexpectedly transmigrates to the third year of the Yongle era in the Ming dynasty and becomes the down-on-his-luck son of a landlord who squandered the family fortune.
From the start, he is saddled with a huge debt to a brothel, chased and beaten, and pushed to the brink of desperation.
At his lowest point, he rescues the girl next door, who is trying to take her own life, in his family's neglected orchard. He also unexpectedly activates a mysterious five-colored jade cong, causing three mu of barren peach trees to bear fruit overnight.
With his modern knowledge and an ancient agricultural treasure, Lin Xiao Mu sells exotic fruit, repays his debts, and revives farming, slowly rebuilding the family fortune in Chang'an County.
The brothel's top courtesan, his ill-fated childhood sweetheart, a cold and beautiful assassin, a wealthy merchant's daughter... one after another, they enter his life. And the thousand-year-old secret of agriculture hidden within that jade cong is leading him toward a much wider world...
See how this humble fruit farmer makes his way in the Ming dynasty and grows himself a carefree life.
