share time: 2026-01-01 06:18:09

In the midst of a depreciation wave where money loses value by the day, Lin Xiaoman, a recently unemployed young woman, suddenly gains the ability to predict price fluctuations of goods. She spends her last 500 yuan on dried fungus that’s about to skyrocket in price, only to be scolded by her mother for “wasting money” and mocked by her brother for “being delusional about wealth”. To everyone’s shock, the fungus price triples the next day, and her first 2000-yuan profit leaves her family stunned. But troubles follow: her prediction of a daily necessities shortage backfires when the supplier reneges, nearly costing her everything; jealous competitors steal her sources and spread rumors... While fighting external challenges, Lin uses her ability to pay off the family’s debts and open a community store. Watching her mother finally dare to buy a new coat and her brother get into his target university, she realizes: “lifting the family up” is just using every “step ahead” to catch the little wishes her loved ones hide in the mundane moments of life.
