Uncle To can do nothing about it.

What happens to me if you go to jail?

Shut up! Men are talking!

You want a beating?

Why not kill her and do the

job while you're at it?

I wouldn't stop you!

Let's draw lots!

I'm not a Luk.

I'll do it.

Don't worry, Jau.

You didn't go to jail in vain!

Tell us if there's any

way we can repay you!

Fine.

Give me back my leg.

Sure!

Left or right?

The middle one.

OK, it's yours!

Help yourself!

Ms Luk!

Everyone's here for the inspection?

Ms Luk!

You've come out.

Yes, I was just released.

And this is?...

Our brother, Jau.

Good to see you, Mr Luk.

My surname is Law... Law Wing-Jau.

Mr Law

Jau's mother was a Luk.

He may not share our family name.

...but he's as close as a real brother!

Never say I didn't warn you...

Jau is our enforcer! A real fighter!

Fu.

Good thing you're here.

What?

The building materials I ordered

will be delivered tomorrow

Have you alerted the villagers?

Yes, Sir! Everything's under control.

Then I'll tell them to deliver at 9am.

Let me have a drag.

What was that position called?

You guess.

You're so naughty!

Hey...

You guys... Finished already?

Premature ejaculators, are you?

What?

Did you take good care of him?

He's been dry for 5 years!

I gave him full service, Chuck!

Show me.

Piss off.

Looks dry to me.

Not enough?

Let's go...

...for another round.

Go after him instead.

...he looks famished.

You know me.

I've had 2 rounds already!

I ain't like you!

You're full just looking at Yu!

What a wimp!

Everyone around knew...

Miss Luk was...

Jau's first and only true love.

You looking for a spanking?

Listen, my dear sex workers...

The brothers have things to do.

You can go now

Thanks.

- Have fun next time.

- This way.

- This way.

- Bye Bye.

Bye!

So naughty.

How naughty?

Huge b*obs!

You can have her next time.

Jau.

We've bought...

2 Ding Grants for you Ding Grants.

Construction fees included...

...you don't have to pay a cent.

You get 2 flats...

worth $20 million each.

Small change.

We can discuss later.

I want to work with you guys again.

Jau.

I want you to take a break.

Because I'm crippled?

I want you to take a break.

Noted.

Come on, cheers.

Paul, we need more booze.

You hear that?

"My life once stretched before me...

...like a plain under the white clouds"

"My heart pounded joyfully

like the blue sea"

"Those were my childhood years,

caressed by the wind"

"That was when we vowed...

...our love would never change"

"But the world is ever-changing...

...and we took different paths"

"Who had the power...

...to uproot the plain?"

"Who had the power to turn the sea...

...into a raging torrent?"

"The wind still caresses us...

...our vow withstands the storm"

"Even if the sea dries up...

...and the hills crumble to dust... "

"Our vow will never change"?

"Who had the power...

...to uproot the plain?"

"Who had the power to turn the sea...

...into a raging torrent?"

The wind...

We've got 4 hours before the drugs wear out.

Insert their SIM-cards here.

Counter-surveillance alarm.

They probably each have one.

Check them all.

Put these on the alarms.

Moon! Forget it.

Call a tow truck!

We'll chip in for the truck fee.

We've been waiting for 3 hours!

I'm starving to death.

Hey, pal.

Help me out!

Say what?

Help me out!

Sorry.

It's night soil.

You'll get used to the smell.

Spare tire?

I don't have one.

So what do I use?

We drive the same truck.

I've been waiting all night for this.

You have a spare tire, right?

Hey, hey...

I'll pay you back for sure.

I always repay my debts.

...you can ask anyone.

I don't have the money for a tow truck.

Please...

Can you really fix this, pal?

Screw it tight, pal.

If this falls off and hits someone...

...there will be hell to pay.

Give me your number...

I'll return the tire tomorrow

You don't want to?

That's fine!

I'm Moon, I live in the next village.

Here's my number.

Remember to call me.

Protect our home!

Return our land!

Protect our home!

Return our land!

Sir, we don't care who owns the land?

We have a big shipment to unload.

Sir...

what do we do about...

...the dispute at the village?

The entrance is blocked with villagers.

All the villages around here know...

...that I own this road.

I even have the land deed.

I decide who passes and who doesn't.

No one can change that!

Come closer...

...and we'll douse you in sh*t!

Uncle Nine, it's all ready.

US$3,300

So expensive?

$100 per bucket of night soil.

$500 per person.

5 persons, 12 buckets.

That's $3,300

It's a hell of a deal!

I'll pay $3,000

There's already a discount!

Then you can go!

I'll keep the sh*t.

$1,000 for 12 buckets?

Fine, $3,000

I'll take it.

Thanks a lot!

Here, $400 each.

Thank you!

Take the buckets over there.

If reporters show up...

...remember...

...to burst into tears.

Don't worry.

We know what to do.

Moon.

You're so trustworthy.

Kuen says Hung gave her only $300!

Huh?

You think there'll be a fight?

Hung offered $100 extra for a fight.

Come on, Auntie Gil.

Will you pay $100 extra for a fight?

Huh?

Fine... $100 extra.

OK, all clear!

Got it, Ms Luk.

Jau wants to work with us again.

Working together is OK...

...but how much does he want?

We've already spent...

...loads on him in these 5 years.

How much more does he want?

But he can see you flaunting your money.

He can buy half a flat with

what you spent on that watch!

Who knows what he's thinking?

We're at war.

We can use an extra man.

For what?

Get him to rat on Uncle To?

Disclose that...

Uncle To ordered Yuen's hit?

What are you saying?

If he admitted what he did...

we'd be dragged down with him!

How about this?

What if we turn Jau over to the cops?

Yeah, we could do that.

Over these few years...

...everyone's changed a lot.

Is that so?

They haven't changed at all.

I thought things would change...

...once the Ding Grants are repealed...

Ding Grants.

...and the high-rise project

takes off, but...

Don't worry.

It'll be fine...

...once we take care of them.

I've bought something for you.

This looks exactly like...

...the pair you gave me before.

I got it at the same shop.

The owner remembers you.

He asked what happened to...

...that bully with the curly hair?

Really?

I should grow my hair and perm it.

Then go ask him for protection fee.

Don't do that.

He gave me a discount!

Don't come here again...

...unless it's essential.

There are some things...

...you should stay away from.

Thank you.

Wan wants to see you.

Meet us here tonight.

What's up, Jau?

Can we start?

I was waiting for you, Joe.

This is the Control Programme.

For the past six months...

I've followed every step of your plan.

There's a camera in their

offices, cars and homes.

One for each place.

They all transmit via 3G

Without the telecom support

arranged by Ms Luk...

we couldn't have done this.

Thanks.

It's my job.

Try it.

1 is Keung.

2 is Fu.
