The action takes place against the backdrop of the future industrial revolution in Yorkshire in the 18th century. At the center of the events is a British man named Hartley, who once decided to assemble a team consisting of representatives of the working class to create a criminal group. The gang of weavers and farmers, led by a charismatic leader, not only managed to collapse the economy of the country but also entered history as the creators of the largest fraudulent scheme in the history of Great Britain.
