As the people of Saribahce prepare to face the drought, the economic crisis and the irreversible consequences of mining, each member of the Kurak family begins to implement their own plans, despite and against each other.

As Turgut struggles with the traumas of his past and is on the verge of repeating old mistakes, Tansu and Beton are forced to make tough decisions as they struggle to survive and not lose power.

In order to keep their drug business afloat, Beton and Tansu try to use immigrants in difficult situations in exchange for a place to stay. However, they encounter situations they did not anticipate.

While Beton, who is in negotiations with his secret partner, is strengthening his power, Tansu takes a step to protect his land.

As Tansu and Turgut unexpectedly confront the secrets of the past, Beton feels anxious about the shadow following him.

Shaken by the 1998 earthquake and the 2001 economic crisis, an empire was born in the early 2000s in the bloody land of Saribahce: Kurak Tarim.

Turgut, Tansu and Beton are ready to do anything to win the municipal elections, but things get complicated because they all have a different method. With the support of the Americans, Hilmi emerges as a strong rival to Turgut.

Turgut's moves after being elected as mayor of Saribahce escalate the struggle between Tansu and Jessica. Tansu takes a big gamble to end the American presence in Saribahce.
