About the story

Delivery rider Lin Dazhuang travels back to the 1980s and takes the place of a village man with the same name who is considered a fool. His mother-in-law arranges his marriage to Chen Fang with a bride price of thirty yuan. He gains the ability to appraise treasures at a glance, continues pretending to be foolish and finds undervalued antiques while collecting scrap, beginning with an old jar and acquiring many precious objects. He battles thugs and dishonest traders, helps the police fight relic smuggling and uses modern ideas to build factories and businesses, leading the villagers toward prosperity. He and Chen Fang gradually fall in love. At the end of the first season, repairs to an irrigation channel uncover a Republican-era land deed, revealing Chen Fang's origins and a Chen family treasure hidden in the hills behind the village, leaving the mystery for season two.
