Jiang Ci woke up as a stone on a riverbank in a Jiangnan water town. Unable to move or speak, he could only watch helplessly as the Immortal Sect recruited students, a flood of them streaming in.

Then, a mysterious yellow stone seal inexplicably appeared in his sea of consciousness: [Stage: One] [Feature: Generate Wealth from the Earth (Autonomously Absorb the Energy of the Earth Spirit (Earth Veins))] This divine seal, which empowers one simply by lying down, arrived just in time! Even more amazingly, a blue-robed Taoist from the Daiyue Sect rolled up his sleeves and said, "I know you possess spiritual energy. Follow me back to the mountain." Wait! Are the Immortal Sect's admissions criteria so broad? Even stones are acceptable? From then on, the Daiyue Sect gained a disciple with a unique artistic style. Others fly with swords, but he... rolls? Others refine elixirs and draw talismans, but he... basks in the sun and absorbs earth energy? Watch how a stone, lying flat on its back, absorbs spiritual energy with the "Earth God" seal...
Max (Kat Dennings), a black-haired and aggressive girl, works in a low-end restaurant in Brooklyn, New York. Her colleagues include the short Asian owner Han Lee (Matthew Moy), the cook Oleg (Jonathan Kite) who loves to tell dirty jokes, and the elderly cashier Earl (Garrett Morris). Caroline (Beth Behrs), a new waitress in the restaurant, is tall and blonde, with a socialite look, which is out of place for the restaurant's class. Max began to question Caroline's identity, and accidentally learned that Caroline was a real rich girl in Manhattan, but she had to work in the store to survive after her father went bankrupt. Max, who is sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, took in the homeless Caroline. Although they have different identities and backgrounds, they are also penniless, which makes the two girls become good friends and decide to open a small cake shop together.
