A synopsis of the plot when the dust settles.
In the Aba area of Sichuan in the 1940s, local Tibetans were ruled by eighteen chiefs, and Chief Maggie was one of them. Old Maggie's toast has two sons. This gentleman's wife is Tibetan. He is brave, clever and brave, and is regarded as the heir of the toast. The second young master was born after drinking by the Chinese wife who was robbed by the toast. He is born stupid and ignorant. He was excluded from the succession of power a long time ago. He hung around among maids and beggars all day and witnessed the joys and sorrows of slaves.
Maggie Tusi planted poppies and sold opium all over the country under the guidance of Huang, Commissioner of the National Government. He quickly became rich, and quickly formed a powerful armed force and became the overlord of the toast. Seeing that Maggie's family became rich by opium, the other toast tried their best to steal poppy seeds and plant them widely, but Maggie's silly young master suggested planting wheat instead, so in the poppy sea all over the plateau, Maggie's green wheat seedlings grew tenaciously.
198 There was a severe drought in the mainland, and no grain was harvested. However, the supply of opium exceeded demand, and the price plummeted, and no one cared. Aba area is shrouded in the shadow of famine and death. A large number of hungry people fled to Maggie's office, which made the territory and population of Maggie's family reach an unprecedented scale. The fool got Tana, the beautiful daughter of Ronggong, the female toast, and fell in love with her deeply. Just as the toast of all walks of life was sitting in the sad city and was in a desperate situation, he heard the good news that the second young master opened a warehouse to sell grain and made a fair deal. Toastmasters from all walks of life gathered in the official village of Second Young Master to raise a glass and cast swords into plowshares. Soon several tents appeared next to the official village of the second young master, and then a tent, with restaurants, shops, pavilions, goulan, and even the spring building of the prostitute house. At the suggestion of Master Huang, the second young master gradually established a tax system and opened a money house, and the prototype of a commercial market town with modern significance appeared for the first time in the ancient and closed Aba area. The second young master returned to Maggie's chieftain village and was greeted with heroic cheers. However, at the welcome meeting, he had the chilling sinister eyes of the young master. A bloody incident about the right of inheritance within the family has quietly begun. Finally, the official village of Maggie's family collapsed in the rumbling sound of the PLA suppressing the remnants of the Kuomintang. Disputes and vendettas have disappeared, and an old world has finally settled down. More than 50 years later, the second young master, who is in his twilight years, stood in front of the restored official village of Maggie Tusi, looking at the former residence that has now become a national key cultural relics protection unit. He has mixed feelings. As a witness of history, he put his hands together and prayed for the beauty of his hometown and the happiness of the people! Tower Siedle!
