Lin Xiaoman, a modern e-commerce operator, accidentally traveled back to a Jiaodong fishing village in 1982 while staying up late working on a promotion plan. Looking at the mountains of wild sea cucumbers sold for only 10 cents a catty on the dock, her eyes lit up—this was the "soft gold" that would sell for thousands of yuan in the future! But just as she was about to negotiate with the fishermen, Gu Yanchuan, the captain of the fishery team, stopped her: "Girl from out of town, don't try to cheat the fishermen out of their hard-earned money!" Gu was convinced she was a "heartless businessman" here to lower prices, and tried to sabotage her at every turn; Lin was determined to fight back—she used modern ideas to turn sea cucumbers into vacuum-packed dried goods, and dragged Gu around the county supply and marketing cooperatives, even selling sea cucumbers to state-run restaurants! When the entire village's fishermen were smiling with thick stacks of money, Gu handed her a bowl of hot sea cucumber porridge with a red face: "I was wrong before... How about I help you collect sea cucumbers from now on?" From "bickering enemies" to "counterattack partners," Lin earned her first pot of gold from sea cucumbers, and even turned the "stern captain" into a "wife-spoiling expert" who picks the fattest sea cucumbers for her every day. Turns out, the most satisfying counterattack is not just making money, but also gaining someone who holds you in their palm.
