Cashier Wang

You`re all early, l am slightly late today

Has Master summoned us yet?

No

You`ve come in good time

Sit, rest a while

Sit...

Let`s all be seated

Has Master come out yet?

Yes, he`s in the sitting room

All these skills l have

What are they good for?

Golden sword

You know old master made his name with it

before the Qing regime

Yuans Golden Sword is famous in the martial arts world

but even if l have inherited his skills

what am l to do with them?

How could l withstand guns and cannons?

The Guan family are also martial artists

and run a security bureau

But they have no business either

That`s because of the invention of trains & steam ships

no one needs a security bureau to escort goods anymore

That`s true

Kung fu...

forget it

Call them in

Yes

Master calls for Cashier Qin of the bank

Yes

Mr Zheng of the pawn shop

Yes

Cashier Zhuo of the silk shop

Yes

Cashier Wang of the restaurant

Yes

Master will not see the others today

come and wait for your turn tomorrow

Chief Li

Business...so bothersome

Master is talented, such a large business

others even with their utmost efforts can`t manage it

but you do it so well and effortlessly

Everyone admires the

brilliant management of your business

Oh, talking of which you should note one thing

Guan`s security bureau

is between our bank and the silk shop

lt is inconvenient

l have instructed Qin Fu and Zhuo Bing Nan

to buy off the bureau

All our shops will then be linked

Yes, but the old Guan has passed away

and his son is somewhat obstinate

l know, that`s why l ask you to take care of it

Yes

l`ll keep you posted

lt`s a small matter, we`ll fix it

Are you in the mood

for some entertainment?

What? Are there any fighters?

You have guessed it

Those martial artists have nowhere to

earn a living in this day and age

Once they hear Yuans Golden Sword

they are like flies that have seen blood

Who are they?

They are upstarts

but they enjoy a modicum of fame

l have instructed

for them to be brought here

lnside please

Altogether seven men

One is called Chen Qing

Five brothers from the Meng family

Meng Long, Meng Hu, Meng Pao

Meng Biao, Meng Jiao

and Lui Jing from Guan Tung

He might possess the best kung fu skills among them all

Bring me the Golden Sword

Yes

Chief Li

Sorry to keep you waiting

Master Yuan will be here soon, please sit...

He is Mister Yuan

Greetings

Master, Mr. Chen

Mr. Lui

The Meng brothers

Please sit

Your fame precedes you

Master Yuan is a descendent of the hero Golden Sword

lt`s our honour to meet you

Chief Li says you are seeking a position

Yes, l hear the Yuan family is recruiting martial artists

You`re too kind

l just wanted to find someone to practise with me

The golden swords have been left by my late father

as l`m sure you must have heard of

Of course, old master Yuan used the 49 techniques

of Golden Sword to make his name

Every martial artist knows this

Well said

l would like to see your kung fu

l`ll just make one strike to each of you

Whoever can handle it will be my honoured guest

The first move is

Golden Wheel Faces the Sun

Who will accept this challenge?

l`ll try

Please, Mr Chen

Come on, Mr Yuan

Mr. Yuan, even if Mr. Chen failed

you needn`t have killed him

l didn`t make the second strike

He has his own incompetence to blame

lf you think you can`t accept the challenge

it`s not too late to back out

The five of you can attack together if you like

l`ll only strike each of you once

Only five moves for five of you

how about that?

Let`s go, if we don`t even dare to take his one strike

how could we face others?

Spoken like a true hero

Mr Yuan, come on

l`ll use `5 Clouds Worship the Sun`, altogether 7 moves

The first move is Cloud from the Nine Heavens

Cloud Lifts from the Feet

Clouds Over an Angry Sea

Clouds Out of the Wind,

Meeting the Sun

Your swordsmanship is really deadly

but you are too cruel

Nonsense, did l use one move too many?

l admire your kung fu

but why did you have to

kill all the Meng brothers?

Killing one or five... it makes no difference

they dared to come with such poor skills

Martial artists hold no future in the present times

But the hero Golden Sword was known for his magnanimity

This doesn`t seem like coming from his descendent

Whatever

Besides, no outsider would know what happened today

You want to silence me as well?

See if you could deal with this blow of mine

This is the sixth move called...

Rotations of the Sun Wheel

Good, you escaped

but by what you said

l would have to make one more strike

Look, the Sun Shines on Everywhere

``Wu Wei Security Bureau``

``The Yuan Bank``

Get out, l won`t sell

lt`s out of good intention that Master Yuan

wants to buy your old security bureau

l don`t think so

he wants the land on which the bureau stands

No

lt`s because...

Because of what?

Say what he said

or he`ll beat us to death

He wants your property

You...if you cause Master Yuan to come himself

then you`ll...

l am the only one not afraid of him

if he comes l`ll make him change his surname to Fang

and beat his head into a square (same sound as Fang)

then beat it back into a ball again

Master

You are the Yuan fellow?

You...

l tell you, the bureau is not for sale

Just name your price

l won`t sell, but...

l`ll exchange it for one thing

What?

Your head looks good

How about an exchange with your head?

Good, that`s exactly what l hoped to hear

Brother

mom has asked for you

Brother

Okay, you`re lucky this time

What are you looking at?

``Ming Xiang Restaurant``

You seem to be lucky

From the cashier to the waiter of this restaurant

they are all small and skinny

lt wouldn`t be a heavy beating

Let`s go

Sir, one dollar and forty three cents

Come, men

What`s the matter?

Eating for free

Beat him

Stop, l`ll pay for him

Stop

He Fei, something`s wrong

Feng Jia Ji should be finished being beaten by now

Yes, l am hungry again

You`re always hungry

Get lost

They used so much force

even if we didn`t pay there`s no need for such severity

Forget it, we deserve it

You even complain of their food

They used sticks to beat me

Had someone not intervened

they might have used knives!

Who helped you?

l didn`t see clearly

l only heard him say that he`ll pay

Waiter, the bill

Two dollars and eighty cents

One dollar and four cents is from the bill of that guy

l said l`ll pay for him

Alright

Come on

You...

Another one trying to eat without paying

Beat him

Murder

You can`t pay and yet you say you`ll pay for others?

lt`s you who can`t kill me, not my fault

Careful, whoever touches this stick dies

``Yuan Feng Restaurant``

He Fei, from morning until now

we passed through 3 towns and 8 restaurants and

you all don`t let me in, you say this one won`t do also

You don`t want me killed by that fat man

No, every time it`s his turn to take a beating

he evades it

Alright, this one then

lf l were killed

it might benefit you

How?

Cook and eat me

Look here...and here

Quite some meat

lf you don`t want to take a beating

then pawn these swords

No

lt seems nothing works for you

Don`t ever ask me

to pawn these swords again

Don`t think l`ll continue to be poor

The swords have been left by my ancestors

Forget it

Forget it...my stomach wouldn`t forget it

Okay, this one

Not bad

These people are not easy to deal with

l`ll take your place

What do you mean?

We agreed to take turns

l can`t take advantage of you

Feng Jia Ji is quite a friend

You...

Go...wait at the door

Waiter

Coming

Total...

No need to count

Come altogether...

Wait, l`ll bring the cashier

lt`s him

You don`t have money?

Come on, beat me

No need for a beating even if you can`t pay

Did l hear that right?

Yes, but you can`t leave by these stairs

you have tojump from this window

l see, there`ll be over a dozen people

waiting from me downstairs

Nobody`s going to beat you, jump

l have been to many places

but have never heard of such a good restaurant

You`d better give me a beating

l ate but didn`t pay

lt`s better to settle this so we don`t owe each other

Come, hit me

You must have overeaten

Our boss said

good martial artists don`t eat without paying

unless they are hard pressed by poverty

Yes

He also respects those with great skill

That`s why you have tojump

l haven`t eaten for free

l`ll let you beat me but you wouldn`t

What`s the name of your boss?

Yuan Ying Fei the Golden Sword

Then thanks, l might be back

The fried shrimps were not bad

Thank you

What`s all that about down below?

lf you have real kung fu you needn`t worry

if not, and if you hurt yourself that`s your business

He Fei

My bones have been broken by them

So painful, don`t touch me

lt`s my fault

l shouldn`t have forced you into that restaurant

l should have taken your place

at least l am stronger than you

You do have a conscience

You...

l was lucky that restaurant didn`t beat people

Let`s stay here

and eat there everyday

He Fei

l tell you

the boss of that restaurant told me...

``God of Chivalry Temple``

We eat without paying

and if we`re beaten up we don`t owe each other

The owner respects martial artists

if we return we are less than human

Yes, we owe them this meal

Keep worrying about it

lf we go again tomorrow

they`ll think we`re eating without paying again

l`ll pawn these swords

we`ll pay for today`s meal too

He Fei, are you reluctant to let go?

Frankly, although this axe isn`t worth any money

l really don`t want to lose it

ln any event we are all from rich families

You the hatchet are from the Zeng family,

He`s Feng, the iron leg

My family has also run a security bureau in the past

my father was the chief when he was alive

and achieved much success with these swords

As kids we practised

nothing but kung fu

and we know nothing else

To crown it all, there`re now guns and cannons

and kung fu is useless

``Pawn Shop``

How much do you want?

20 dollars

Not worth that much

15 dollars then

Not worth that much

Then how much would you say it`s worth?

30 cents for a pair of rusted swords

Look with your damned eyes

this is my family heirloom

lf you utter the word `rotten` again

l`ll try them on you

Alright, 20 dollars then, pay him

Yes

Rotten...

Beg your pardon?

No...20 dollars for the pair of precious swords

Good swords

Who was the owner?

A young and fierce chap

He must be an exceptional martial artist

to own such good swords

When he redeems them, introduce him to me

Yes, l know you like making new friends

that`s why l have brought the swords

Okay

Have you sent gifts to Miss Guan?

Yes, but l fear the result would still be the same

Get out

if l see you again l`ll break your legs

We`re here to deliver presents

Scram

Oh, how harsh!

Brother

Go in

Brother

Shut up, you haven`t seen them

they are like hungry dogs focusing on a bone

What`s the matter?

l feel strange

How did he get full this time

and walk out like this?

l`m full so why not leave?

Stay for a beating

Do we look like we eat for not paying?

Yes, indeed

You better not use weapon

one touch by my stick and you`re history

Not gonna be that easy l guess

You are...

These people are not friends

to leave you to a beating, l`ll beat them up for you

Beat him up

l am hungry, l`ll deal with you after l`ve eaten

Upstairs please

Jump down, jump and you won`t need to pay

l`ll fall on those swords

lt`s up to you

Eating without paying

l told you there are many people with special talent

don`t think they are so poor to eat without paying

Don`t look down on them either

Do let me in on any news of them if there`s any

Yes

Guan Yun gives us no face

Don`t rush things

A rundown security bureau is no big deal for us

What would you do afterwards?

Will Miss Guan like me then?

Guan Yun is the only obstacle

You`d get everything if it weren`t for him

Agreed, but we can`t fight him openly

do you understand?

Yes

A few martial artists have come into town

some look like experts

Pay attention to the restaurants and pawn shops

The 20 dollars are gone,

what should we do tomorrow?

Eat for free at the Yuan restaurant again

l feel shameful to do so

Tomorrow we should pawn your swords for good

and get a few more dollars

No, l must redeem them back

Besides, l wonder if they would take them!

Since you look down on my swords

l`ll get 30 more dollars to prove to you their value

Redeem your goods

22 dollars including interest

You`ve come to redeem the swords

My swords

Yes, get them here

Please take a look

l haven`t come to redeem them, but to sell them off

They`re good swords & must be worth more than 20 bucks

l know...our boss said

their owner must be a hero

and must be hard pressed for money

and if you come they should be returned

He also said

if you need money just ask

Keep the swords, pawn it for another 30 dollars

30 dollars, count them

What`s your boss`s name?

Yuan Ying Fei

Oh, it`s him again

You are hungry, take it

Please

What, what`s wrong to buy you a meal?

After l eat my fill l`ll make you kowtow to me

By your ability?

Precisely

lf you touch my stick you`re dead

A duel at God of Chivalry temple then if you have guts

He who backs out is a bastard

l don`t fight with a hungry man

Let`s use weapons, that`s more fun than kicks & punches

No need

lf you touch my stick you`re dead

Feng Jia Ji, fight or you`re a bastard

lf l had my swords l`ll make you cry for mercy

Let`s see who will cry for mercy

Please stop

Scram, none of your business

We are all friends and martial artists

Why do we fight each other?

Look, this gentleman here said

he is also a martial artist

l am Yuan Ying Fei,

l want to make friends with you

Please come to my home for a chat

We all know you are good to friends

You have great rules in your restaurant

if l were desperately hungry l`ll visit it again

But as regards going to your home, sorry

You better invite the three of them to go

Do we look like we`re freeloaders?

l only want to share kung fu experiences with you all

there`s no other intention

l am no different from you

the only thing is my late father left me some money

You know kung fu?

You too are a martial artist?

Haven`t you heard of Golden Sword Yuans family?

Of course l have

Hero Yuan was rich and good at sword skill

He was famous during the Qing regime

Five years ago he died at the age of eighty

That`s it

He is his son

Can you say if or not he knows kung fu?

Come, men

See?

Son of Golden Sword hero Yuan

You should be able to block 3 strikes of the stick

Alright, if you do

l`ll go with you

Alright

One, two

The way you duck

if l hit you one more time what would you do?

l naturally know what to do

Three

l have nowhere to go anyway

l`ll come along to your place

Welcome

Please come in

������ ���� ��� ���� ����� �� www.razmikade.blogfa.com

Please try these foreign cigars

Please take a bath first

and after you`ve changed he`ll welcome you with a feast

Where`s the bath?

Over there

What are you doing?

What`s the matter?

These women

They are here to serve you in your bath

We`ll do it ourselves

Let them go...

Come out...go back...

Please

Please sit...

lt`s gold

l was just joking, l won`t dare to take it

lt`s delicate

After the meal, clean it up and

send the whole set to brother`s He room

Yes

Please sit...

Make yourselves at home

Let`s eat

l counted just now

the whole set consists of 56 pieces

no more no less

lt should be 120 pieces, you counted less

This could last us over ten years

My swords

Damn, my receipt is gone

Oh, Master Yuan wouldn`t mind that

He is a true friend

l`ll do whatever you ask of me

Thanks, l just want to be friends with you

and have no intention to ask for favours

You are so good to them

they just eat and practise kung fu

and make a mess of the place

why do you keep them?

There`s also that set with over a hundred gold pieces

They`ll do anything for me if l treat them well

As for gifts to them

let`s just say they are temporary in their keeping

They`ll eventually be mine again

Guan Yun

When should we ask them to go?

Can`t tell them to gojust like that

You ought to be with them more often

and let them know how l`ve been ill-treated by Guan Yun

Let them dojustice for me

Yes

And you need to pretend to be the victim

Yes

You...

lt`s alright

Chief Li, what happened to you? Are you alright?

Don`t ...

lndeed, should have given some face to the master

Who beat you?

That`s not important

but even Master has had to suffer injustice

Who dares to do such a thing?

Not to mention that Master is an expert in kung fu

his family is rich and famous too

Master values his fame too much

that he won`t allow us to bully others

No use talking about virtue & morality to guys like him

Nonsense

Stack it up, hurry ...

What is it?

lt`s this guy

Do you know him?

Met him before, very harsh

People are afraid at the sight of you

Treacherous cur

One to one

Your kung fu is good

but can`t compare with mine

Brother ...

l didn`t fight

This guy is henpecked

No, she`s his sister

His sister?

Mom told you not to cause trouble

Not afraid of sister but afraid of Mom

Don`t tell mom

Considering you`re a filial kid,

l`ll allow you 3 moves

Do you have the ability to do so?

You have my word

lf you kill me in 3 moves l`ve my incompetence to blame

Alright
