The novel takes Daizitian Village, a resettlement village in southwestern Hunan Province at the source of the Dongjiang River, as its narrative starting point. Against the backdrop of rural revitalization, the first secretary, Cao Jingsong, skillfully orchestrates events, leveraging the influence of local notables to forge a close alliance with Huang Daniu, a representative figure of the "new social stratum." This not only transforms the formidable barrier of the Yapojiang River into a smooth thoroughfare and allows the village primary school to expand and reopen, but also forges the village and its leadership into steel in the crucible of rural revitalization. A group of young talents emerge, becoming the backbone of Daizitian Village. From the fertile, treasure-filled countryside to the confusion and hardship caused by sacrifices made for a water conservancy project; from the turning point brought by targeted poverty alleviation to the dawn of rural revitalization, the novel portrays the new era of "mountain village transformation" and the new totem of contemporary rural civilization on this ancient and silent land, reflecting the author's deep and enduring affection for the land.
