Liu Laogen (played by Zhao Benshan) grew up in Tieling in the northeast and has lived here all his life. He felt that life had lost its flavor, so he simply went home and wanted to do something. After I just returned to the countryside, I saw the beautiful scenery here, so I planned to build a resort for the villagers, so that more people could come here to travel and make everyone rich. However, starting a business is not an easy task, and there are quite a lot of problems that need to be faced. Liu Laogen also began to reflect on himself, whether his path is correct. After living in the city for these years, he has not changed his rural habits. He likes to wear comfortable old cloth shoes at home, dislikes bright and shiny leather shoes, likes to smoke old man cigarettes rolled up in white paper, and dislikes wearing filters Paper cigarettes, in the process of continuous construction, Liu Laogen has gradually found someone he likes, and the resort has gradually become a reality in his hands, but how to manage the villa well is another new problem
