Plot:
In the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, a mule team loaded with goods in Wei County, Hebei Province was suddenly robbed by "bandits". The owner of the goods was killed. The owner's nephew Hua Weizhen was injured and stranded in Guo's escort agency. He married Guo Yuxian, the eldest daughter of the Guo family, and entered Chengji Leather Shop as an accountant with his intelligence and integrity. After Hua Weizhen went to Zhangjiakou to do business, he had a grudge with Ren Bochi, the young master of Hengtaiyong Business, a tyrant in the Shanxi business community. Thanks to the help of Yu Longfei, the shopkeeper of Deshenglong, the two became sworn brothers. Hua Weizhen explored various channels for fundraising, set up a one-stop workshop, and worked hard to run the "Zhangjiakou Branch of Chengji Leather Shop", and finally gained a firm foothold in the business world. Ren Bochi, who was jealous of Hua Weizhen's property, secretly colluded with the young master of Chengji Leather Shop to squeeze Hua Weizhen, causing Hua Weizhen to almost go bankrupt. In order to seek greater development, Hua Weizhen followed the caravan to Kulun, experienced numerous hardships and dangers, and finally became a business model renowned in Hebei's business road. After achieving success, Hua Weizhen devoted himself to benefiting his hometown and spent all his wealth to build the Zhangku Highway. As a result, the heroic deeds of a generation of Shanxi merchants spread throughout Hebei....
