The Pirate (大海盜)

Take a look, that's the place

Just like I told you. Exactly what I said.

What do you say?

That's the pirate country over there

Yes sir, over there near the shore.

Can you see that?

Chang

Ah, Chang Pao-chai

Full speed

Fire on signal

Fire

Fire

Fire

Fire again

Follow me

You stabbed him in his back

He'll never rest in peace

Well? Surrender?

Xiao Bao, watch him

Watch him

Okay

Come here, hurry

I am Chang Pao-chai, you must have heard of me

We'll protest to your government

and would ask for the damages

That's another story

There's no point telling me now

Set sail

Such good fortune!

Pao-chai, that foreign ship is armed

Must have caused us serious damage this time

Close the box

Water is getting into the front cabin

How come?

The ship must have been hit just now

Pao-chai, the ship will not make it

We won't be able to get to Lantau to meet the others

Let's abandon the ship

No, Brother Zheng Yi has given instructions

that the ship cannot be abandoned

It's our very lives

But...

Hang on

Change the course towards the shore

Pao-chai, there's just a few of us

what would happen if we ran into the authorities?

Come on, let's go

After all they won't recognize us

Remember, once ashore, get materials to repair the ship

Tell the men not to go ashore

Once the ship is fixed we'll leave immediately

Go

Pull in...

Hua Er Dao has been arrested, come and see

A great man isn't afraid of death

Damn it, it's not time yet for the execution

What's the yelling for?

Chopping the head off is no big deal

I'm not scared

Move

Move

There's nothing to see now

Bring more people here to watch when I am beheaded

Upstairs please...over there

Second madam, what's up?

Be seated, you two are officals

you should give me guidance

You are joking

I heard that you've caught Hua Er Dao

Yes, this bastard went back to his homeland

to see his mother

The news leaked and we caught him

What are you going to do with him?

Be forthright about it

We've instructions from the top that

once a pirate is caught, he must be executed right away

There are 4 assistants of Zheng Yi

Next to Chang Pao-chai is Hua Er Dao

I want to make a deal with you

Hand Hua Er Dao over to me

He's a great robber wanted by the law

What do you want him for?

I've heard that Chang Pao-chai is very handsome

Even the wife of Zheng Yi shows interest in him

This Hua Er Dao...

2nd Miss

Stop talking nonsense

The East India Company has offered great bounty

for Hua Er Dao

I'll take him back to Macau for the bounty

We can share the reward

Hua Er Dao, get up and follow us

What's the situation?

Not bad, we're near the shore

There are more holes in the front cabin

Never mind, in any case

they will have to be repaired

Tell the others whoever goes ashore

I'll have his head cut off

Yes

Brother Guo Xiong, go ashore with me

Alright

Get inside the cabin

Don't leave so many people on the deck

Go

What do you want?

What are you shouting at?

Hua Er Dao has escaped

If he's not caught

he'll bring the pirates back for revenge

Don't use catching the pirates as an excuse

to give us trouble

The pirates had not clone anything to us

But someone could come to rob our things

Since you say such a thing, you are a pirate

You...

Arrest him

We're officers, it'll be okay after we search the ship

We'll have nothing left after you've searched the ship

Please don't search the ship

Please don't give us trouble, please

Sir...this foreign money

is all that I've got from yesterday's sale of fish

Please give it back to me

Rubbish, if not a pirate, how do you have foreign money

You are the pirate

Search carefully

These bastards are good for nothing

except hiding the money

Found anything?

Yes, guess where the silver

was hidden?

Where?

Inside the incense container

Give it back to me

Brother, let them take the money

No, we fished for a long time

before we could get the money hoping to buy a new net

Let go of me, give it back to me...

Brother

Let go of me, give it back to me...

Take him away, he's with Hua Er Dao

Go

Master Xiang

Not that we don't want

to do business, but Master Xiang

instructed that all materials used for building ships

must be approved by him beforehand

Is this Xiang a government official?

No, but he's even more powerful

What's in it for him?

A lot

Like today when Hua Er Dao escaped from detention

He brought his men to search the boats

Not to say he pillaged while he was at it

He'll make some damage in each boat

then he could name his price for fixing the same

People even have to sell their children for it

Gentlemen

Master Xiang, got a lot this time, right?

You gained a lot, what did I get?

Our gains are visible

They are limited

Yours are invisible

Boats have to be repaired & new nets have to be bought

I think you'll be able

to buy more girls for your home

We might be in the wrong place

Is the ship working?

It may have to stay here for a few more clays

Remember not to go ashore

Hear that?

Send someone to stay on watch

Tomorrow, we'll try to buy some decent clothing

to make some dealings with Xiang

Not bad

Look, Pao-chai looks like a fine young gentleman

when he's dressed up

Brother Ma, I've an uncle living in town

I'd like to go and see him

I've got some relatives whom I've not seen for years

I want to go too

I know that your uncle has a gambling house in town

and your relatives must be in the whore houses

Pao-chai instructed that no one is allowed to go ashore

Didn't you hear that?

Hurry and get back to work

Wanted: Zheng Yi Reward-200 taels

Wanted: Mrs Zheng Yi Reward-200 taels

Wanted: Hua Er Dao Reward-150 taels

Master Xiang...if you could help,

regarding of the price,

our young boss wouldn't care

Don't mention money, I just want to make a friend

but two or three clays will be needed

I'll invite Mr. Chang to stay in my place

Thank you for your kindness

Young boss wants to take care of merchandise on board

It's up to him

Although this place is small, there are
