The story takes viewers back to Kuzi's past and shows how, after leaving university, he ended up in his native Agapovka and unexpectedly became the head of a local collective farm. This is where his path to big business begins — with all the difficulties, adventures and his cousin's trademark spontaneity. Trying to save the farm from bankruptcy, Kuzya encounters the intrigues of a city businessman who wants to take over the land. In her personal life, too, everything is not easy: a practical neighbor, Verka, a divorced mother with a child, and a spoiled city girl, Dasha, the daughter of that businessman, are fighting for Kuzi's attention. The story unfolds in the format of memories of an already successful Kuzi, about whom the film is being shot, and shows how a simple guy from a dorm turned into a "dumpling king."
