Hey! Hi there!

Hostel

Come on. Get up.

- Come on. Come on. Get up!
- Ah, sure.

Hey, hey, hey. Come on. Now, get up.

You can't sleep here.
It's a stairway, not a bedroom!

Goddamn it!

Huh.

What are you
kicking me for? What is this?

You just belt up!

He's paid you, but he didn't get a room.

So why beat him up?

Paid me? How much?

If you guys are so loaded,
go sweep it away in weilei terrace.

Find plenty of broads there, too.

Hey, hey...

Time you learnt some manners.

Here.

Ah, you're gonna teach me, are you?

Just remember this is Shanghai.

And you're only
a two-bit punk from shantung.

You'll never survive here!

- Blow!
- You!

- Brother ma!
- Break it up! Break it up, you two.

Hey, cool it! Come on!

- What are you doing?
- Break it up.

Ma yongzhen, you better watch it.

You make trouble for me, but I'll get you
thrown out of Shanghai. Damn you!

You don't realize
who you're dealing with.

It's said there's money
to be made in Shanghai

and where there's a will, there's a way.

Brother, the time isn't right.

Take it easy.
You'll have plenty of chances.

Hey.

Xi hui fang brothel

Tan

Hmm.

- Hey.
- Huh.

Scram! Don't you wash it!

Hmm.

But, sir, brother ma and me,

we wash all the carts
around this area here.

Little jiangbei, don't beg him.
Who's he think he is?

He's only a cart driver.

You what?
Who the hell do you think you are?

Maybe I'm nobody right now,
but I aim to be better than you.

You reckon so?

The huangpu river will dry first!

Hey, don't go.

Wash the cart for me. I'll pay.

I don't want your money.

You what? Want a fight?

Fight? Fight me?

I wouldn't advise it,

but if you will insist,
it's your lookout.

Ah, you punk!

Hmm. Remember, you asked for it.

I may be a nobody,
but I know how to fight.

Let's go.

I guess that's it.

There goes our chance
of making some money.

- That's great.
- It doesn't matter.

Don't worry. There's another way.

- Sounds too easy.
- Hmm.

Hey, you there.

Ah, ah, Mr. Tan! It's you.

Good morning, sir. How are you, sir?

Tell me, what's your name?

Ma yongzhen.

From shantung?

You're very bad-tempered.

Shanghai's tough. You won't survive.

If you treat money as an enemy.

Here, money is power.

Believe you me, this is my cart.

Clean it up for me now.

Come on. Now, wash it.

I can afford a dollar.

Ma yongzhen, you disappoint me.

Just one dollar isn't worth picking up.

Er, you wanna be rich?

My watch is worth a couple of tens.

Hmm-hmm.

Now, how does that grab you, buddy?

Why not come and get it?

You mean, steal?

Sure, I mean steal.
Doesn't everyone, hm?

Move back.

Mr. Tan, you're as good
as they say you are.

Quite a reputation.

Hmm.

Reputations are pretty hard to come by.

I... I'm pretty good, too.

Brother, you'll soon learn.

And that dollar still yours.

Tan, you just hang on.

Wait.

You can stick your lousy dollar.

Good. Well done.

Hey, brother ma, are you crazy?

Why did you throw away the money?

Someday I'll be just as rich as he is.

Hey... I got 20 cents.

Brother ma, at i-yu-chun
we can listen to broads singing.

I-yu-chun

Come! Come on, you guys,
let's run them out of Shanghai! Out!

Come on, you bastard!

Hey, why did you kill him for, then?

What's going on?

You!

Hmm. What about me?

Hmm. Well, now, things have changed.

Even this little punk here
wants to fight me.

That should be a laugh.

Hmm.

Reckon you can handle him?

Get away!

I'll take him.

Ah-ha. Now, tell me.

What's making you so unhappy?

Know why I'm here?

None of my business,
so why should I ask?

Listen, you,
this place is ours now.

You'll go on singing here.

You take a lesson
from what happened to tan's men.

We're giving those bastards a bad time.

Hm! Kill the lot. I don't give a damn
what you do with them.

You be careful.
Better be nice to me.

Brother fang! Brother fang!

Haven't you finished them all off yet?

The entire gang were beaten up.

Some other guy moved in and fought.
Brother li was wounded.

Oh? Was he a member of tan's gang?

No, sir. He wasn't. He's a stranger.

Get him!

Brother, mind your arm.

Guess he doesn't know me.

Listen, you! Fang ah-gen.

He's the oldest and toughest
of the four champions. You get it?

I've got no quarrel with you guys.

But that guy just killed somebody
and tried to blame me.

Oh? Aren't you one of tan's men?

Hmm. No one owns me.

Well, now, you've been here long enough.

Haven't you heard
of the four champions, hm?

Hmm. Not only heard of them,
but I've... also fought with them.

The guy with the knife,
hmm, he's useless.

- Who?
- You better watch your tongue!

Look, I've got nothing against you guys.

But if you insist, then I will fight.

Who the hell are you? Where do you live?

Ma yongzhen and I live where I like.

Hotels or on the open road.

Right. I'll remember that!

Come on! Come on!

Let's go!

Brother, why let him get away with this?

Forget it, forget it. Come on, come on.

- Come on.
- Right.

Hmm.

Ooh, listen.

I tell you, this guy has an iron fist.

The bastard
must have been training for years.

Hey, where's he from?

No idea.

I know that little punk jiangbei.
Seen him before.

- Oh?
- Just a two-bit crook.

No wonder that li broke his arm.

That guy's got a punch like a mule.

- We better tell boss.
- Right. Come on.

Careful.

Give me your hand.

Brother ma,
you still wanna hear her sing?

Hmm. And why not?

It's better than just wandering
around the streets I guess.

But you've just beaten up
two other champions.

No, three.

Fang was scared stiff of you.

That'll keep him quiet for a while.

Jin and ju, come here.

Sure.

Which song?

But I have no money.

You have a chance
against the champions,

so it's our pleasure
to help you, my friend.

I didn't help you to fight
and I don't want any favors.

Hmm. Take a few bucks.

To tide you over.

And when I see Mr. Tan, then I...

I'm ma yongzhen
and Mr. Tan knows me.

You go and tell Mr. Tan
that I was fighting for myself.

I wasn't helping him.

I don't need your money.

Or tan's money.

The next time I meet tan
it will be as an equal.

Sure.

Ok, remember, brother, the four
champions are from Yang's gang.

Don't bug them too much.

I didn't want to fight,
but what's done is done now.

You're supposed to be
my four champions. My top fighters.

And you ask me for help?

No, no, sir.

Listen, we could
have killed him that time.

We were worried. Afraid that...

Afraid? Afraid of tan?

I told you to take over his territory.

So why should you worry about tan?

Look, boss, trouble is ma yongzhen
is not one of tan's men.

I didn't want him to join tan.

Tan gets himself another fighter,
so what?

You work for me all this time
and still none of you understand me.

Master, but I thought
maybe we could turn him against tan.

Hm. It would save us a lot of trouble.

Figure you don't have to fight any more.

A big shot, huh?

Master, we'll go sort tan out right now.

You guys think that tan
is so easy to handle?

We're going to invite him
to come along here for dinner.

Invite him to dinner?

Mm-hm. You will all be there.

And you will all be nice to him.

Just do as I say.

It'll be all right.

You've got a lot to learn.

Well, then, so what else is new?

Hey, a European boxer
has just stated a contest.

For 20 cents you can fight with him.

If you can knock him out, you win $20.
We could make money on it.

That kind of money
will only buy drinks for us.

Ah, take it easy.

Just remember that we'll be competing
with tan for the opium

and there will be a big fight coming up.

- Yeah, sure, boss.
- Mm.

Hold it.

Ma yongzhen.

This ma yongzhen,
perhaps we ought to go and talk to him.

He might be interested.

He mightjoin us and another friend
is better than one more enemy.

Sure.

Lu pu, did you hear that?

This unknown fighter...

Broke li caishun's right arm
and put fang's fists out of action.

Master, I'll fix him.

Not just yet.

Not just yet.

- Thank you.
- Knock off.

See you. See you in the morning, yeah.

Yeah, knock it off.

- Hi.
- Hey. Come on. Eat up.

I got cash and aftennards,
hey, I'll take you to a brothel, hm?

To a whorehouse?

Ha! Do you think fang's mob
will leave you alone after what you did?

You know,
you could be friendly with Mr. Tan.

Can't you see? I respect him.

Want to equal him, not work for him.

You're already his equal.

He lives graciously. You eat noodles.

He's in bed with a beautiful chick,

while you look for sex in a brothel.

He rides his private cart.
You can't afford a rickshaw!

- Ha!
- I'll be like him someday.

You wait.

- Hey, hey, hey.
- Oh.

How about a toast to Mr. Tan?

- Yeah, have a drink. Cheers.
- Cheers.

Yeah, have a drink.

Cheers.

Mr. Yang, a number of my men had some
trouble when they were fighting today.

They were almost defeated.

But some guy helped 'em.

Ah, ok, I get it.

My men have already apologized,
haven't they?

So why talk about it anymore?

Ok... by me!

Brother, the shipment
that's coming to Shanghai next month.

Hey, Mr. Yang, this isn't the time
or the place to talk about that.

It's nearly midnight.
Tell me, where is your friend?

He went to a brothel.

But he didn't say which one, though.

I'll try and find him.

Ah.

One of the four champions, Chang, is
heading this way. Better hurry. Quickly!

Don't be scared. I've already met them.

Oh?

Little jiangbei said that you...

Don't you worry. Nothing will happen.

We're in touch.
See each other every day.

We always help each other.

When I finally become rich,
I won't forget those who help me.

Brother ma!

Hey, cool it now.

Ma yongzhen, we came here to see you.

- Jiangbei?
- Yeah.

Back.

You don't believe it.

Look.

Well, what do you want?

Yang sent me here to ask you
if you want a job.

- Are you interested?
- Hey, he's got a job!

What kind ofjob?

You know, between boss Yang and tan,

there's never been good relations.

Tan hasn't got any good men.
They're stupid.

Wouldn't be difficult for you
to get a piece of the action.

Boss Yang wouldn't bother you.

Is that so?
And that's how Yang would help me?

Hm. You think it over.

Hey, Yang will help you out
if you need some men to fight.

Forget it.

You go and tell Yang.

I've only met tan on one occasion.

But he has my respect.

In comparison to tan, I'm just nothing.

But I'll always consider him a friend.

You intend to fight against us?

That bothers you?
You've got men and knives and power.

Why, half of Shanghai belongs to Yang,
so what can I do?

You daren't fight against us

cos you're yellow!

Hmm.

- Hey, brother ma! Brother ma!
- Oh, man!

Hey, ma yongzhen,
you're becoming big time.

Why don't you move in upstairs
and take a room,

instead of sleeping on the floor?

It's too expensive. I can't pay.

Forget it.

You can pay later.

And the sun's rising in the west,
if you're gonna pay!

Shut up! Come on, come on! This way!

Brother ma, he's gonna make it.

- Brother ma!
- Hi, jiangbei.

Brother ma, a foreign boxer,
reckon you can beat him?

What foreign boxer?

A European guy started a contest.

It'll only cost you 20 cents
to get up and fight with him.

And if you can knock him down,
then you can win yourself $20.

- $20? Come on.
- Yeah.

Come on! Get him!

Quiet, quiet! Your attention, please.

Is there anyone else who wants to try?

Anyone who knocks him down
will win $20!

Ah, ah. Right.

Just lately the takings
have been increasing.

They all want to get rich.

Come on! Yeah!

Ma's here.

What's he doing here? Damn him!

Ma yongzhen?

Coming here to fight?

I've heard that tan's
turned over i-yu-chun to him.

He gets the takings.

So far, all the money, it's still there.

It's not been moved.

Ma didn't collect for ten days.

If he's here for a fight,
it's not for the prize money.

Yeah, come on! Get him!

Come on! Get on your feet.
On your feet!

Brother ma, can you beat him?

Look at him!

Yeah, you give it to him, man!

Yeah, go on!

Ok, this guy looks good. Let's see.

I could take on any two of you!

Everyone, sit down, please.

Think twice before coming up.

You might win.

On the other hand you might get smashed.

This guy's unbeatable!

Anybody else around here!

Hey, what about this guy?

What about this guy?

I'll have a try.

Go ahead.

Ah!

Yeah, go on. Go get him! Go, go!

Go on! Go get him!

Hey, go! Go!

I think I win.

Hey, come on! Move it!

Move it! Get out of here.

Ma yongzhen, this place
is our territory. You get it?

That may be the way you figure it,

but not the way I see it,
you cheap crook.

You watch out
or I'll make you eat your words.

Got no words, just fists!

Hm. Hm!

I see your arm's better.

You win, brother. Take the $20 and go.

I don't wanna go. Not yet.
There's something I wanna tell you.

What is it you want to say?

I advise you to see the doctor again.

I've only dislocated your arm.

If you can't stand that pain,
you're just plain yellow.

Yeah, yeah. That's right!

Come on.

Beautiful! He broke that arm!

- Time I checked out i-yu-chun.
- Yeah.

You three, go and fetch my friends
from the inn.

- Yeah.
- I'll wait for them there.

Ok. Come on. Let's go.

I-yu-chun

- Come on!
- More! More! More!

Sir, you just order anything you want.

The cashier's coming.

- Cashier's coming?
- Yeah.

- Do I owe you something?
- Boss ma, you must be joking.

Me, boss ma?

Me, boss ma.

Ah, the cashier's arrived.

Brother ma,
we've been waiting a long time.

You must be busy. Here's the money
for the last ten days. Please count it.

Hey? What money?

Sure.

What's this?

After you had that fight
with the four champions,

i-yu-chun tea house
and all of the shop owners...

Haven't paid them.

And tan said, er, he couldn't take it.

The four champions
were beaten by you.

Therefore you get the pail.

Brother ma, the area's small.

We collect five bucks a day.

Tan mentioned
that if you need some more men,

then we should help you
and we're ready to help you.

To all of us, brother ma,
you're like Mr. Tan.

Hmm.

Brother ma! Go get him!

Check, check! The total's $67.80.

Oh, eh, see that?

Brother ma's got a lot of men.

His latest rake-off is still too low.

Brother ma should get more
and I reckon that it's ok.

Sure.
We just wanna run our own business.

Hey, enough, enough.

- Hey, jiangbei?
- Yeah?

The i-yu-chun tea house
belongs to us now.

How about that?

Hey, hey, hey!
You can even drink any time you like.

I'll pay for it!

Yeah, come on, fellas! Get out!

Hey, miss Jin,
it's brother ma's first day,

so let's hear something happy.

Sure, sure.

Hey, hey. Come on.

Boss ma... What shall we play?

Any song?

Keep it. It will serve as our payment.

Lingzi, what's the big idea?
This is brother ma.

Whether it's Mr. Tan,
brother ma or chen before,

whoever comes after,
we still have to pay you.

So who cares?

Damn it!

If we don't collect,
then you won't get protection.

You play!

Sure, sure.

Don't pull a long face.
I want you to sound happy.

Ah, never mind.

You don't have to sing.

Brother, I'll get her.

No, don't. She...

Hey, more drinks over here and hurry!

- Yeah, come on!
- Drinks over here!

Come on! Hurry up!

Hey, you shouldn't get mad.
We have a struggle to make ends meet.

Hey, that's it.
Yeah, come on, fellas, drink up.

Hey, all, have a drink! Come on!

Yeah, sure. I'll drink with you.

Yeah, I'll have another drink.
Cheers!

Ah, all right. It's ok.

You guys are ruining my reputation.

Boss Yang, there's something
strange about ma. I don't get it.

Tan's given him i-yu-chun
and he's already collecting.

He's gonna be very powerful
when he gets more men.

Don't worry about it.

It could be
one of tan's schemes against us.

And right now our main aim
is to get tan out.

Ah, boss Yang.

What is it?

The opium...
Will be here in two months.

Two men are bringing samples.

They'll arrive in 20 days' time.

Tan's already sent someone
to contact 'em.

What's the arrangement?

I don't know yet,
but I bribed one of tan's men.

He'll tell us when the contact is made.

Hm.

What's wrong? This is not the first time
somebody's asked you to sing.

- Never bothered you before.
- Oh, you leave me alone!

Right. I will.

But you said recently
that ma's a good person.

Remember? And you smiled.
Why the change now?

You saw him just now.

He's no different from the others.

Just another crook!

But I think he's been kind to you.

If you were anyone else, hmm-hmm,

you'd be in trouble now.

I don't need his help.

Lingzi, that temper of yours

is going to get you into trouble,
believe me.

Uncle... let's get away from here.

What the hell? What the hell's going on?

What's up with you all?

Brother ma's gonna make sure
we've all got plenty of money!

So we don't need all these rags.

Come on.

Xingcheng carriage company

Hmm-hmm.

All right.

Well, now, look at this cart.

Just like Mr. Tan's. Exactly like it.

Who's the big shot who owns it?

Ma yongzhen. Brother ma.

Oh? Brother ma?

Never heard of him!

Take a trip to i-yu-chun.
Then you'll find out.

Hyah! Hup!

Shanghai gets him.

I've seen it so many times before.

Men rise and fall every day.

Hyah! Hup! Hyah!

- No, please, don't.
- Come on! Come on!

Forgive me! I... er..

Why are you still around here?
You haven't paid up.

I'm sorry, but business is bad.

Please give me just a little more time.

If it's bad, get out!

But, you see,
it's just as bad anywhere else I go.

He owes us cash for three days.
Shall we beat him up?

No, don't

oh. Er...

What's the use of beating him up?

He'll pay when he has money.

Most of us start off poor.

And if we're not careful, we'll all
end up broke one day. Let him go.

- All right.
- Sure.

Hmm.

"Ma"

- Hey, that's quite a cart.
- Yeah.

Please.

- Hey, Jin lingzi, is she back yet?
- Sir, not yet.

Brother ma, you keep on coming here.

Jin lingzi still hasn't shown up.

You want me to have some men try
and find her for you, force her back?

Hmm. No, don't.

If she doesn't wanna come,
it doesn't matter.

Brother ma,
miss Jin's a beautiful woman.

No doubt about that.

- The two of you are a good match.
- Hmm.

Nonsense. There's plenty of other women.

The payoffs seem to be getting less.

Brother, I just put the squeeze
on a candy seller.

Tomorrow there might not be a dollar.

Don't press 'em too hard.

They can't help it if they're poor.

Tan has plenty of money.

Where does he get it?

Ah, tan has several gambling dens.
Big outfits.

Brother ma, don't try to crowd him.

I'm not gonna touch tan's territory.

What about the other rackets
in the area?

We've got to get a casino
operating pretty soon.

Othennise we'll be back
where we started.

Well, east of here is tan's territory.

Westward is controlled
by the four champions.

But there is chunfu terrace,
the casino and brothel.

Would make us 30 or 40 bucks a day.

That's bread.

With that much cash...

Why hasn't anyone moved in?

|'|| tell you.

A month ago a guy tried it.

Iron-fist chen. He was killed
right there in the terrace.

Well, then, who wants to go with me?

- Er, well...
- Well...

All right. Then I'll go alone.

You wait for me outside the entrance.

If I win, then come on in.

But if I don't,
then you'd better find a new boss

cos I won't be around.

Brother ma, you?

I've been thinking, if a guy's
satisfied, with what he's got,

well, then it's certain,
he won't keep it for long.

Let's go. Chunfu terrace.

Yeah.

Hyah!

Well, takes guts.

Just like Mr. Tan in the old days.
We sure found the right boss.

Hold it.

Chunfu terrace

Well, jiangbei,
I've come along here to fight.

You'd better drive the cart home.

If I don't make it,
then you sell the cart and get away.

Brother ma, you're alone.

I... I wanna help you.

It's not your fight.

Now, please leave.

Do as I say.

Hyah! Hyathup!

Chunfu terrace

Come on. Over this way.
We'll show you a good time.

Beautiful girls, come on.

Over here.
Look, here they are. Right here.

Take your pick. Come on inside.

Yes, come on.

Guys, come on. Here they are.

Which one would you like?

Come on inside.

Hongfu casino

Hey, hey, come on. Play.

Put your money down.

Hey, girl. Thanks.
Give us a drink there.

Fetch down here, please.
Fetch down. Last fetch.

This way, please.

Sit down.

Here, sir.

Mister, do you wanna cash some chips?

I wanna see your boss.

Yes.

That's him there.

- Get the men.
- Sure.

Hey, hey, come on.

Hey, roll on that, fella.
Come on. Come on.

- Hey, come on. I'll take another.
- Hey, hey.

Hey, come on, you. Get down there.

Well, now, what do you know?

It's my lucky day. It must be.

It's Mr. Chang himself.

Ma yongzhen, you're doing all right.

Frankly, no. I'm not too happy.

Taking from the poor,
that's not really my bag.

Oh? What do you want?

Not much.
The gang can afford to lose a little.

Chunfu terrace is the kind of place
I want. I'm taking over.

Ma yongzhen.

You've got a nerve coming in here
and trying to take over.

You better believe it cos I mean it.

Right. Come on.

The place is small and too crowded.

It's a shame to make a mess.

Step outside and talk.

Any time.

Oh, come on, fellas.
Let's take another one there.

Run, run!
Hurry up! Hurry up! Get inside!

Come.

Ma yongzhen, you walked in,
but you'll be carried out! You bastard!

Not before you all die.

What's up?

Boss Yang, ma yongzhen and his men
are trying to muscle in on us.

- We need some help.
- Hm?

- I'll settle 'em.
- No.

I have an idea. You get Chang back here.

Remember that tan is our real enemy.

Ma yongzhen isn't the problem.

We'll get him later.

But, boss, if Chang comes back,

then chunfu terrace may be...

Give it to ma yongzhen.
We'll get it back later.

Go get Chang.

- Yeah.
- Sure.

You'd better go along, too.

Patience is a virtue

and, besides,
tan is likely to think we're scared

and that we're useless.

Stop fighting!
The boss wants to talk to you!

We don't need any words!
We need some more men.

Ma yongzhen, you've got courage,
so we're turning this place over to you.

What? Brother fang, what?

Boss's word, so let's go.
Take all the men with you.

Ah?

Be sure to thank your boss for me.

Hey, come on. Get going.

Come on.

Come on. Let's go.
What's going on? Come on.

Right.

Get all the managers and staff out here.
I want a word with them.

Yeah. Ok. Right. Sure.

Boss ma, please do come in, won't you?

You were terrific. You were great.
Please, please.

- Please, this way.
- Uh-uh.

Boss Yang,
what they said is on the level.

Repeat it.

Tomorrow, tan is due to meet them.

They will hand over some opium.

When he's checked it, I'll negotiate.

The meeting place is near taichang.

That's definite.

Supposing something happened to Mr. Tan.

Then they would have
to find a new buyer,

in which case
you'd get the deal for sure.

Excellent. You'd better go now.

Be careful. Tan is very clever.

He might be suspicious.

Boss, I'll go first.

Come on.

Are you sure you know what to do now?

Tan isn't likely
to bring many men with him.

You just wait for him.

Oh, it's too easy!

Ma yongzhen won't bother us.

We'll leave him alone for a few days
and fix him later.

Where's the girl?

No, no.

Pour some for me.

This is my sixth meal!

I'll have to make this the last one.

I can't eat any more.

Why don't you have
another drink, then?

Here, here! Come here!

Look at this.

Mr. Ma, take your pick.

Which one of these girls
do you like the best?

Mr. Ma?

Hey, brother ma,
let's go check out a few other places.

Hey, you don't know
what he's thinking about.

Ah, I know brother ma's
got a girl on his mind.

That's nonsense.

Ma, listen. There's a girl I know
in zhen hui fang.

Looks exactly like Jin lingzi.

She has the same big beautiful eyes.

And she's slender. Yeah.

And what's more, she can sing.

See?

I know just the kind of girl
brother ma wants.

That's rubbish.

I've been to zhen hui fang.

Sure, I've been there
a lot of times.

I'll ask little jiangbei
to go get the cart.

Hey, hey. Get away. Get away.

- Hey, hey, who did the paintwork?
- Come on. Leave it alone.

Leave it. Come on. Leave it.

- Master tan.
- Hi.

Whose is the cart?

Oh, er... it's brother ma's.

He had it made
exactly the same as yours.

- Brother ma?
- Yeah.

- Ma yongzhen?
- Yeah, sure. Right.

Go in. Hi there. It's Mr. Tan.

You tell him that Yang's a tough cat
and a clever bastard.

Chunfu terrace may be ma's now,

but he had better watch out.

Hey, Mr. Tan, come on in.

Thanks. I'll tell him that.

Yeah, yeah. Right, baby, yeah.

Let's have another drink, then.

Oh, come on, now.

You come...

To I yu chun with me, then.

Ma, finish your drink.

Hey, hey.

Go to taicang. Hurry.

Hey! You there!

So, Yang's a cunning bastard.

Tan doesn't stand a chance.
Let's get out of here. Come on.

Never figured this.

Killed by a traitor.

Brother ma, tan just left a while ago.

Find him. I wanna have a word with him.

Oh, no problem. I heard him tell
the driver he's going to taichang.

Hyah! Hyah!

Brother ma, look!

Brother ma, tan must have been ambushed.

Let's get out of here.

Come on. Hurry.

Hurry!

Hyah, hyah, hyah! Hyah!

Boss, cheers to you.

Well, finally, you did the job properly.

There's no doubt about it,
we'll get that opium.

Cheers.

Now, tan's other rackets,
what about them?

We took them all over.

However, most of tan's men
have gone into ma yongzhen's gang.

I'm afraid of ma yongzhen.

I have a surprise for ma yongzhen.

You go and tell him

that I would like to meet him
at chen lin kuo tea house.

And I will see him alone.

I'll only be taking lu pu with me.

- But, boss...
- Oh, no.

There's no need for anyone else.

Surely I can go
to a tea house on my own.

Listen, why not let me take ma?

Well, we'll see what happens later.

These three men
have fought with ma before.

I know very well that they're anxious
to get their revenge, right?

Put us a little money on that.

- Put one over here.
- Roll on that, baby.

Here. Good.

Ah, ok.

I'll take a little more...

Come on, fellas.

Brother ma, this meeting with Yang.

So, I wanna make the big time
in Shanghai.

I've got to go. My mind's made up.

Oh, but you...

Mr. Yang's got a reputation
here in Shanghai.

I'm sure he'll keep his word.

What's more, he said
that he would be alone.

Chen lien kuo is a tea house
and it'll be crowded.

What can he do to me there?

I'm afraid it's an ambush.

So, Yang will sit beside me.

Anything goes wrong...

I'll kill him, I swear.

Ask jiangbei to come in.

- You keep watch outside.
- Sure.

It's the only way to get close
to that evil bastard Yang.

Mr. Tan, I will avenge you.

Hey...

Little jianbei,
take 100 bucks from the cashier.

Tomorrow morning, get away from there.

Brother ma, you...

See, jiangbei,
the kind of life we're leading

isn't for an honest guy like yourself.

I'm doing all right, being your driver.

Suppose that something happened.

What would you do, then?

Think of tan's driver. He's dead.

Take the money and buy a piece of land.

You settle down. Maybe even get married.

Now, go on.

Do you need more than 100 bucks?

No! 'Course not! No!

Listen, now. You must leave tomorrow.

Right.

Brother ma, anything you say.

Last bets.

Chen lien kuo

- Hi there.
- Hi, sir.

- Good day.
- Good evening.

- Waiter, more tea.
- Coming.

- Please, please.
- Thank you.

Oh, Mr. Yang, Mr. Yang.

This way.

- Mr. Yang.
- Hello.

Oh, boss Yang, boss Yang.

Yes, sir.

I've come here to see a guy.
Some of my men will come in later.

I want you to make sure
that you ignore them.

Sure, sure.

Don't worry.
Whatever happens I'll be responsible.

Yes, anything you say. I'm not worried.

- Hey.
- Come on.

What's going on?

Sir...

Listen, all of the waiters on every
floor and all of those selling food

will be switched for our men.

- You get it. You understand?
- Sure, sure.

Listen. Don't worry.

We break anything, then we'll pay.

Sure, sure.

Go now.

Everyone, I'm sorry, but we're closing.

Sorry, sorry.

Early closing today, gentlemen.
I'm sorry.

Sorry, we're closing. We're closing.

Sorry. You'll all have to leave.

Sorry, gentlemen. Closing time.

Come on. Let's go.

Boss.

Everyone, get out of sight.

And wait for my signal.

Hey, hey.

- Remember, it must be boiling.
- Sure.

Chen lien kuo

Ready?

Mr. Ma, Yang is waiting for you.

- Mr. Yang.
- Yeah. Come in. Come.

He's... he's my bodyguard.
You understand.

Mm. One of the four champions. Lu pu.

All right, but don't mind.
He won't talk.

That doesn't bother me.

But maybe he can fight.

Don't worry. Listen, man...

I've heard that in a fight
you handle yourself better than tan.

I doubt that!

A real man!

Too modest! Let's have some tea.

Sure.

I'll get to the point.

I'm prepared to let you have
chunfu terrace. I don't want it.

Chunfu terrace.

Funny. I don't want it, either.

Right now, Mr. Yang,
I want something else from you.

- What is it?
- Revenge for tan's murder!

Ma yongzhen, you are finished.

I'm not finished yet.

Brother ma!
Brother ma! Brother ma!

- 'Brother ma!'
- Kill him!

Ma yongzhen...

You're finished.

You're gonna die!

Hey, look out! Come on! Quick!

Quick!

Get 'em! Get 'em!

For Christ sakes, kill him!

Boss Yang, don't worry. He'll never
make it up here. He's nearly dead.

Mr. Yang, now we can really...

Ow!

Just talk... alone about your death!
