The male lead, Yang Xiao, with his knowledge far beyond his time, cures Miss An Lan of the An family's stubborn illness with a bowl of brown sugar porridge, earning him a hefty reward of five thousand taels of silver. Upon learning that the local sugar market is monopolized by the Zhou family's brown sugar, Yang Xiao proposes a business plan to An Lan to jointly produce and promote a superior "white sugar." However, their conversation is interrupted by their competitor, Zhou Jianliang, the young master of the Zhou family, who immediately colludes with the officials to arrest Yang Xiao on charges of "operating without a license." At this critical juncture, An Lan steps forward and publicly declares Yang Xiao as the manager of her An family, openly confronting the officials and the Zhou family, thus forming an initial business alliance.
