At the end of 1944, a large amount of cash known as "golden yuan" fell from the sky, covering the ancient county town deep in the mountains of western Sichuan. The impoverished people suddenly became wealthy overnight, and various intertwined dark forces released greed, cunning, deception, desire, as well as hope, redemption, national fortune, and righteousness like trapped beasts breaking free from their cages. The bizarre event of falling cash led to countless war advertisements springing up in every street corner—advertisements for Japanese Jindan, where the old man's beard concealed a hidden war killing intent of implanted commercial brands. Meanwhile, the wealthy landlords who missed the chance to pick up cash were unwilling to concede. They resorted to counterfeit money tricks to deceive the government, which in turn gifted them with both cash and funerary money to the blind Japanese troops on the front lines in western Yunnan—a cashier and accountant who swore to accomplish financial tasks after being retrieved from a pile of dead bodies on the battlefield. Captain Wang Huaiyi (played by Nie Yuan) of the cash search squad played a cat-and-mouse cash game with the Japanese bandits, accidentally turning the dimwitted Niu Ergua into a patriotic hero. All the while, the assistant to the captain, Jiang Yanyan (played by Huang Shengyi), who acted secretively and unpredictably, was using her triple identity as a Kanto Army spy, Kuomintang agent, and Yan'an undercover to safeguard the cash collection efforts. In a critical moment of national crisis, the bustling brothels that thrived on windfall profits transformed from a meat grinder battlefield into an anti-Japanese battleground. The madam, eager for government investment to expand the brothel, finally awakened from the cash search incident and led her crew of women into the torrent of the resistance.
