[ "Tomorrow There Will Be Clear Skies" by Estelle ]

♫ Chasing down the moon and stars one by one, whistling and urging my horse into the west wind when the north is snowy ♫

♫ Elatedly using my sword, to remove and leave behind the three thousand worries like hairs from my head ♫

♫ A mountain that touches the sky and a river, meeting by chance once in the secular world ♫

♫ Love and hate enhance the journey, moving forward over time ♫

♫ Drifting through clouds like a lonely wild goose on an unfurled painted scroll ♫

♫ How much more dazzling the blue dome of heaven is as a pair! ♫

♫ My worldly heart is focused upon a pot of wine and a small fire ♫

♫ Tomorrow there will be clear skies, laughter and sorrow surging like a gathering storm ♫

♫ This life, though free and unfettered, is also shared together ♫

♫ Gratitude and grudges both target me, spellbound as though in a dream ♫

♫ Tomorrow there will be clear skies, in the twinkling of an eye, as gentle and tender as in the past ♫

♫ Rushing toward that rainbow's end... ♫

♫ to embrace each other ♫

♫ Bevies of tea girls come in to play with elder brothers and old officials who love to eat spicy food ♫

♫ Clamoring like startled crows, grabbing at Imperial troops, moving to and fro with laughter ♫

♫ Heads like empty gourds, disobediently getting up at midnight to sweep the courtyard ♫

♫ Oh what a nice little drinking house, blessedly sheltering one's excesses... ♫

♫ drink up! ♫

[ Jiu Liu Overlord ]

[ Episode 8 ]

Long Aoyi!

Master has ordered that a demonstration on how to draw a design on the canvas should be completed.

Gold thread clothing production is officially starting!

Sister, are you really leaving?

The gold thread has been recovered. I should be on my way as well.

But... but I am loathe to part with you.

It's all right.

I am just leaving the workshop, not Yincheng.

If you ever miss me, we can meet in the southern part of the city!

Chief Long, you probably are unaware of it,

but the silk store and Dragon Bamboo Gang normally do not communicate with each other.

Both groups are separated by a distance of one hundred and eight thousand li. (T/N galaxies apart)

Right, yes, yes, yes. We normally work all day during ordinary days.

Even our Master rarely leaves the silk store.

I do not want to see him.

A lot of things have happened recently.

I haven't been out of the store for months.

It's all right. No big deal. I will just dig a dog hole for each of you in the corner of the wall.

I will personally create each and every of them!

All right, do not be unhappy.

Are we not having a celebration dinner tonight?

Very well then.

[ New Silk Road ]

The gold thread was found. The business has also started to turn again.

It is time to get back the money I invested with interest.

But Dong Zi died.

Who is in charge of the accounts?

Second Master?

Chief, knowing that you will be leaving the silk store today,

the brothers have prepared a banquet already.

It's a barbecue. First, to give you a welcoming dinner

and second, to disperse the bad luck around you.

We have everything ready. Let's go back and celebrate!

It is truly a great time to celebrate.

First, because Dragon Bamboo Gang was cleared of the suspicion of stealing the gold thread

and we were able to clear Dachun's name who died in vain.

And second, because I can finally get out of this hellhole!

There is one more thing to celebrate.

The money we saved for our brothers has already brought a lot of interest!

Master Li?

Uh...you do not have to rush me out. I'll leave as soon as I collect the silver.

Uh, thank you for your cordial cooperation.

Let's meet merrily, and part peacefully!

You cannot leave!

What do you mean, Master Li?

Do you want to go back on your word perhaps?

I have never owed a favor.

Manager Li went out on an errand today.

I will definitely give you the money tomorrow.

He is not here? All right.

Anyway, you do not have to rush. I will come again tomorrow.

Second Master, let's go.

Wait!

You and I were not the only ones suffering from the gold thread incident.

Even the people from the silk store have suffered.

So?

So I want to take this opportunity and give everyone a holiday

so that everybody can relax.

I want to invite you, Second Master and Xiaoqin to join us.

Chief, I think it would be ungracious not to accept Master Li's kind and sincere offer.

It should not be a problem to allow our brothers to relax for two days as well.

Fine.

Then... joint meal?

Oh my, this will not do, this will not do.

Your taste is too plain!

Go to a traditional opera? No... this will also not do.

Those gifted scholars and fair ladies,

royals, generals and ministers are uninteresting.

Forget it! Let's go back and eat some meat.

Chief...

How about... the hot springs?

Hot springs are not bad. They easily relieve fatigue.

I have my own hot spring at the foot of the mountain in the southern part of the city.

What a wonderful coincidence. It is suitable both for the old and the young.

It is decided then.

It's a deal then. It is just for two or three days.

The silk store will not move away.

That's it then. Let's go.

[ Suyong Hall ]

You're telling me he is still producing things normally after changing the suppliers.

He has no shortage of the supplies nor a shortage of funds.

I thought that as long as we cut him off of his supplies

and accepted the silver allocated by the royal court,

Prince Zhao would support us?

But not only did he not fail,

he also regained his vitality with the recovery of the gold thread.

But for us, this month's interest

is quite equal to our principal input. This...

Who let them take a turn for the better and be out of danger?

It seems that the top position this year must belong to him.

We tried to steal the chicken and ended up losing the rice used to lure it. (T/N lost the advantage)

Now, instead of profiteering, we all got ourselves hobbled!

Respectfully greeting Your Royal Highness.

Your Highness, several bosses made a special trip here to sincerely give the monthly interest in person.

This subject has ordered someone to collect it. This is the total amount.

Then... what about the head merchant's selection?

Your Highness, ignorant people talk a lot. Everyone in our profession knows that

Shen Yiguan is not an easy man to talk to.

Yet Li Qingliu easily won him over and resumed production.

Maybe there is something fishy behind this?

Royal court's real money was placed in front of him,

but he did not take it.

He decided to stretch out his hands and turn to Jiangnan instead!

Why would he exert such an effort to avoid it?

Li Qingliu is currently tied down with the production of the gold thread clothing

but is still not well received by the local authorities.

He truly shows no respect for the royal court!

Forget about him!

This subject specially prepared some good wine for Your Highness.

Your Highness, please take the seat of honor.

I will not wine or dine.

Lord Du, please arrange for several tax officials

to enter the New Silk Road tomorrow.

Sending Your Royal Highness off with respect.

[ Suyong Hall ]

Your Highness, when you first came to Yincheng,

our followers have audited the New Silk Road's account book.

It seems that there was nothing wrong with it.

Have you seen these old campaigners?

They want to borrow my sword to take the lead.

Very well. I shall push the boat downstream. (T/N take advantage to further his own goals)

Maybe we will be able to catch a lot of fox tails in one go.

As for Li Qingliu, it may not be a bad idea to kill his spirit.

Before Sister came, Master never took us for an outing

to participate in such collective activities.

How come?

It is common in Dragon Bamboo Gang to go out to eat and drink together.

Your master does not understand how to link his "caged rabbits" together.

- "Caged rabbits"?
- Yeah.

You all work like you were imprisoned.

Occasionally you just have to go out and hop about like a rabbit!

What a miser...

Master Li, you look young, but you are running such a big family business.

You are really capable.

I'm flattered.

With all due respect, how old are you?

I was adopted by the Li Family when I was young.

It was probably during Shangyuan era. (T/N: During the reign of Tang Emperor Gaozong, from 674 to 676 CE)

Shangyuan era.

Freshly cooked hotspring eggs.

Miss, when are we going back to the gang?

Soon.

We won't have to see that stinky face of that person in the future.

But after spending days with him,

I don't think Master Li is that bad?

Think about it with me, he's a profiteer,

but he didn't go after the gold threads.

Instead he saved you.

Come on. I have to thank the Earth God

that I didn't break my bones.

Chief, how much money did we get?

I have done the calculation.

With the reward of ten thousand taels of silver,

we get eighty thousand taels of silver in total.

That's enough for us to open a few more stores,

and purchase a few more mu of land for silkworm farming. (T/N 1 mu = 0.165 acre, or 666.5 square m)

One is enough. You can't get married if you are too fat!

Wait for me.

Master.

This place is really nice.

Shui Sheng and Qi Zheng were so happy, they kept wanting to thank Chief Long.

These two men are bathing inside. Forget it.

If I may say,

you have a different attitude toward Chief Long.

See,

the silk store never welcomes visitors,

she is the first.

All staff in the silk store take a vacation.

That hasn't been heard of for years.

Women can't get close to you. You even keep a distance from Miss Du!

But these last two days, you and Chief Long have spent much time together.

The two of you went out together and left me alone.

All in all, you are blaming me for not bringing you with me.

No.

From a businessman's point of view, the time when you went after Dong Zi,

you should have been going after the gold thread!

Instead, you saved Chief Long. Why?

You are such a fool!

The gold thread was not only important to our store,

it was also a problem which Dragon Bamboo Gang had to resolve.

Others may not give their best, but she will.

It turned out not only the gold threads were recovered,

she got the reward and got rid of suspicion on herself as well.

This is a business that benefits both of us.

Profiteer.

Lord Lu, I was sent to ask if everything went well.

Please report that we have clues about the man you are looking for.

But to make sure nothing goes wrong,

once I have the concrete evidence, I'll report back in person.

I'll take my leave now.

[ New Silk Road ]
By order of the envoy to Yantie Manor, we are here to inspect the trade tax.

The accountant of New Silk Road must cooperate!

Sir, please have a look.

Sir, if you need anything, please wait for our Master to come back.

Look here, you have made a mess around here!

I can't explain this to my master!

I'm in charge of the salt and iron trade.

This time, inspection of trade tax is carried out in the whole city.

You don't have a say in this. Take him away.

- Sir, you can't do t-this!
- Go.

Sir.

Head of the Li Family!

- Master, look, look at this.
- Stop.

Are you injured?

Withdraw.

Master Li, are you trying to resist the law?

Lord Du, since you are inspecting the accounts, please do so according to the rules.

Either you check the accounts of one year, or those of two years,

either it's replenishing of stocks or delivery of stocks.

You just check all accounts at the same time.

Should we report to you

how much rice we ate today?

Master Li, we

don't want to bury ourselves in the ledgers.

But we were given a specific order

to check all accounts.

Master Li, please do cooperate.

Rules are rules.

I won't give you the excuse to break the rules.

What if I continue with the inspection?

Move. Go away!

Move!

Get back!

Be careful.

It's you. Thank you.

Don't mention it.

Your Highness, perfect timing.

I was checking the accounts with my men,

but Li Qingliu stopped us with no reason.

Your Highness, please uphold justice and decide.

Li Qingliu, previously you publicly rejected the government's capital,

now you stopped the officer from checking your accounts.

What tricks are you playing?

I dare not play any tricks, I'm just following the rules.

Very well.

Since Master Li follows everything by the rules, I will set a rule for you.

From today forward, the accounting office of New Silk Market is closed for inspection.

You can't reopen it until the officer has finished checking.

Closed for inspection?

What will happen to the money I deposited in the store?

- Master.
- Master.

This...

Yi Wen?

Yi Wen, come.

- Hold it.
- No. No!

- Hold it.
- No.

- Hold this, will you?
- No.

Chief Long, no matter how many chicks you give me,

I still can't agree to your request.

I don't believe you.

I'm giving you my favorite chick.

Do me a favor. Please give us our money back.

Chief Long, my goodness, Dong Zi has passed away.

I'm just taking care of the accounts temporarily.

Now that His Royal Highness Prince Zhao has closed the accounting office,

not to mention your money kept in the store,

even our monthly salary and the money used to purchase goods

can't be taken out!

You mean the accounting office is closed,

the silk store has no money now?

That's exactly what I meant!

Now all the money can't be taken out of the accounting office!

Yi Wen, what are we to do?

We can only go in ourselves.

- Leave.
- My money is inside.
- Leave.

- Leave.
- Let me go. My money.

- Give me back my money!
- Stop.
[ Yincheng County Office ]

Your Royal Highness Prince Zhao.

- Withdraw!
- Yes.

[ Accounts Office ]

Miss Long, why haven't you gone back now that the gold thread have been found?

I was about to leave after I get back my money.

It's all because--

You can tell me anything.

I say, why are you causing so much trouble?

It's official business of the Imperial Court.

Do you have anything to do with it?

Well, let's have a chat over some drinks.

How do you know I love to drink?

Everyone in Yincheng knows that you are a good drinker.

And I know something else about you. Do you want to know?

You're an interesting man.

But I'm not eating meat and drinking wine recently, next time then.

I thought of something. Perhaps it's useful to you.

What is it?

Last time at the big bazaar, you were looking for pepper?

Right.

Are you serious?

Just have a look and you'll know it.

My money. It's killing me!

What are we going to do?

When will it open?

All the money is inside.

It's all gone now.

The silk store at Dongmen wanted to employ me at double the rate,

should I go?

Get back to work.

Let's go.

Miss, what's scary right now is...

What?

Because of that principal money, the rental for the wine and meat shops have more than doubled.

Many of our men have lost their jobs, and are waiting for subsidies from the gang.

But our money...

You did it out of a good heart,

but it's just ...bad timing.

Very bad timing!

Just a two hour delay and we can't withdraw our money!

No. We must think of something.

At the worst, I'm going to borrow some money.

I cannot eat pork "elbow". Eating it would be an offense. (T/N pork shoulder)

Chief, hurry up and think of a way!

Qingliu, the silk store has been thrown into confusion by the accounts auditing now.

It is not suitable for Chief Long to get involved again.

I have a sense of propriety.

I always feel at ease when you handle affairs.

Let's talk!

Chief Long, you should knock at the door before entering.

Nevermind.

[ Exactly five thousand taels ]

What is this?

Ten thousand taels. This is my personal silver.

Chief Long, this is your reward for finding the gold thread for us.

If you need anything after you leave the silk store, let me know.

What should I do?

It's fine to take these ten thousand taels, but should I not care for fifty thousand

invested by the brothers?

Chief Long, rest assured. I took this silver out a long time ago.

You do not have to worry about the government auditing it.

Miss Du, did you not look in the mirror before going out today?

Chief Long, what do you mean?

Give me your ear.

Since Chief Long has something to say, I do not want to whisper about it in private.

Very well then.

I just wanted to say that your nose hair is so long that it shows.

You really do dismantle the bridge immediately after crossing the river! (T/N discard helper no longer of use)

The recovery of the gold thread does not only mean saving a lot of compensation

for your silk store,

but it also relates to the operational reputation of many years.

Do you think it will be settled with ten thousand taels?

I do not need these ten thousand taels.

What do you want then?

I want to learn how to do business from you.

You want to learn to make ready-made clothes from me?

You are endowed by nature. I won't be able to learn it.

What I want to learn is how you plan and manage your business.

How to force the opponent to lower the price,

how can I charge someone in advance without producing the actual items.

Another example is how to fix the price so the other party will get a toothache,

and still foot the bill voluntarily?

Chief Long, have you perhaps been mistaken?

I guess I must have been mistaken!

Miss Du is such a fairy maiden,

how could she have any nose hair?

You...

What were you talking about just now?

I... was asking Master Li for advice.

Uh...

Here... the knowledge about cultivating flowers!

This is a famous literary piece by Tao Zhu Gong about the art of merchandise. (T/N Fan Li, forefather of Fan Zhongyan. Fan Li was a retired statesman who was successful in business, worshiped posthumously as the God of Wealth.)

Is that so? Is its name not deceptive?

I am just ignorant of how to ask for advice.

Uh... I still have something to do. I'll go now.

Master Li, think carefully about the question I just asked.

I will come back and see you another day.

Who are you people?

Save the chatter, open the door!

I...

Your Highness.

Who keeps these things here?

Young Lords, isn't there a name written on it?

Pepper is more expensive than gold.

The amount of the tribute paid to the royal court is only ten dan. (T/N 10 dan is about 600 kg/1320 lbs)

There are thirty dan in here.

Zhu Chengzhi is one of the five officials

in charge of salt and iron trade in the Yincheng area.

How can he have such ability?

This humble one is just a doorkeeper. This humble one knows nothing about it!

Your Highness, what should be done with him?

He is right.

He is a mere doorkeeper, why should we punish him?

But you should think carefully.

This is such a big treasure.

With such a big treasure inside,

how could this be so safe in Yincheng?

Don't tell anyone about what happened today.

Not even the Lord Military Commissioner.

This humble one has not seen anything. He did not hear anything either!

Miss, what are you doing?

Silk store is in trouble, so I have to pull with the tide.

Miss, have you forgotten? It was Prince Zhao's decision.

If you do this, Old Master will get angry!

Xian'er.

Father.

I heard that the accountant's office of the New Silk Road was seized by Prince Zhao.

Yes, Father.

As my daughter, you should understand how to behave in the current situation.

Father does not need to repeat himself

for you to know when to free yourself, right?

What does Father mean by this?

New Silk Road will be short of money now.

- If you...
- The jewelry that I threw away

just did not look good.

Father, I know your career is rising steadily.

As your daughter, I will definitely become an honorable person.

Only the best jewelry and the best men are worthy of me.

Good, you are worthy of being Du Changfeng's daughter.

Father promises you that as long Father is here,

he will definitely let you marry Great Tang's prince!

Miss...

Go and collect everything.

And so, brothers, I still have to stay in the silk store for some time.

- No...
- At that time, I said that you should not go.

Now, their accountant's office is closed, and we are stuck with them!

Chief, our brothers are still afraid of him as a clothes seller.

- Yes.
- Exactly.

Listen to me. My going back this time

has nothing to do with Li Qingliu.

The most important thing is the conflict between the shops in Yincheng these days.

Everyone can be affected by this.

The impact of it is too great.

Not only is the dock business worse than usual,

even the rent of the wine and meat shops has doubled. I do not earn enough to pay.

In addition to farming, whether it is doing odd jobs or normal jobs,

you still have to have some connections. People will only hire us

when they need our strength, otherwise they will just kick us out!

That's right!

That is why I have to revitalize our livelihood in the silk store first.

I have been observing the buy and sell transactions in the New Silk Road carefully these days.

I found out that their operations are not as simple as making and selling things.

They have so much money, it is natural for them to have the drive for it.

We cannot learn from them.

We cannot learn this.

What is the most important thing in doing business?

Is it money? I do not think so.

The most important thing in doing business is information and personal connections.

But are these two things not natural for people who rove the country as we do?

So what Chief means is...

that our brothers should work as secret agents in the silk store?

Don't dismiss it as a joke yet. Gengzi, specify the number of silkworm farmers in our hands.

- Check how many people produce them, and how many they gather.
- All right.

The other thing. I ask the Second Master to gather all unoccupied people from the gang that have working capacity

for the next silk production season. We are going to supply the raw silk to New Silk Road next time.

No matter how big his silk store is and who sits in the chair of the chief of the board,

if Dragon Bamboo Gang makes a move,

maybe we can even outgrow him in the future!

We can accomplish something big.

Become another Tubo... and then repeat it all over the world. (T/N Great Tibetan Empire - Tubo dynasty of 7th-9th century CE)

- Good! Good
- Very good!

We shall grab the whole world!

Chief,

have you seen Master Li's father and mother in the silk store these days?

He is like me, he has no mother or father.

He was brought up by the wet nurses. Why?

It's nothing. I was just chatting at random while drinking soup.

Xiaoxian, I'll accept your kind intentions.

But I don't wish for there to be any animosity between you and Lord Du because of the silk store.

I was doing it for...

The silk store is unable to come up with the money at present

and at the same time, outsiders are trying to sabotage us.

I'm worried that this burden you're carrying will cause you to lose both the money and your life.

Don't forget, my role is also to look after the affairs of New Silk Road.

Chief Long, you're still here?

What's the matter? Are you going to send me off, Miss Du?

There's no need to be so courteous.The only thing I have with me is this little bundle.

All of my precious belongings are in here.

You jest, Chief Long.

You've been busy forming cliques and winning over many people's hearts in the few days that you've been here.

I wouldn't be able to send you off even if I joined the queue.

Xian'er, why don't you go back now.

What are you doing?

- I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
- You can hit me anywhere else but the face.
- I'm sorry! It was an accident.

Why did you scare me like that?

What are you doing at my Master's study?

You can't be... You aren't secretly in love with my Master, are you?

I'm spying on my Young Miss.

I saw Du Xiaoxian leaving with a cold look on her face.

My Miss and your Master are in there right now.

Are they alone?

They made Miss Du angry so she left?

I'm telling you, you can't see anything from this angle. I'll take you someplace else that has a better view. Let's go, let's go.

- Really?
- Really.
- Hurry up.

- Will we be able to see them clearly?
- Yes, we will.

Hold onto this hand, the other hand!

You must be aware that the business transactions dealing in silkworm eggs was originally controlled by Qiyan.

But after that gambling bout at Wanhua Tower, the sericulturist became a turncoat and I took over half of that business.

By right, their raw silk has to go through many layers of refinement before entering your warehouse.

One of the reasons your profits keep doubling over and over is due to your manufacturing costs.

If I became your supplier for the raw silk instead,

I would sell it to you at only one tenth of the original manufacturing cost. How about it?

Don't forget that you're the one who suggested this. Learning to do business from me.

Since you're not willing to teach me how to do business, then let's talk about forming a partnership instead.

And where is this capital you'll be using to contribute to this partnership?

Here. It's the ten thousand taels you gave me!

You're hard-pressed at the moment. I'll do it!

It'll help you cut down on manpower and physical resources.

I'm not profiting from your misfortune at all.

I'm just being "business-minded".

What are your terms and conditions? Tell me.

I already told you, I only want a tenth of the profits.

Isn't there anything else that you want? I want you to make yourself clear all at once.

I need you to agree first if you think everything is suitable.

You're only starting this business venture now when you could have started it ages ago.

Even if you have sericulturalists at your fingertips now,

reeling in silk from the cocoons is a very complicated job which requires a massive force of manpower.

It's not that easy

starting in this line of work.

I want to enter and reside in the silk store.

There are just too many issues for both parties to mediate the business transactions.

Everyone in the silk store has their own duties to perform.

If another person was assigned to this particular task, that would contribute to increasing the production costs.

It's the same for me. If I become that person,

I will be the most suitable mediator for this job.

I'll be the go-between for both parties, and I'll resolve all your conflicts. By living here in your store,

it'll be like like those places in Chang'an, like those... Like those... What are they called...

- Lodging houses.
- That's right! That's right!

In any case, it'll be just like having a live-in office. It'll be more convenient for me when I'm working.

I don't think you're incompetent.

However...

What do you want me to do?

[ "Transportation" (T/N specifically goods shipped with armed escort) ]

Wait. I have to calculate this bill first. I'm not going to let you slyly obtain our services for free.

It's been so long. Why haven't they come out yet? What are they doing?

Miss, you have to stay. Otherwise, we won't be able to answer to our brothers.

Let me tell you. Everything's going to be fine.

There won't be a problem as long as her clothes aren't in disarray and her hair isn't disheveled.

The Master must let her stay.

Otherwise, how will I be able to see Sister Qin every day?

Move aside!

If I get a ten percent cut for every order...

So if you get fifty orders per month...

Then in a year, you will get...

Goodness gracious! We'll be able to rake in hundreds of thousands of taels in a year!

We've already settled the purchase agreement for the raw silk. I want to add another clause.

I want us to be in charge of transporting the goods as well.

Of course, it will be arranged according to your demands. How much will we be paid?

I'll move, I'll move away.

I'm fine! I'm fine.

- Are... You all-
- Please get out!

- And our... Partnership...?
- I'll agree to it!

Great!

She's coming out! She's coming out! Let's go quickly.

- Her clothes are in disarray.
- Her hair is disheveled!

Being in love is frightening.

Money is still the best!

♫ As we grow old and the vision comes to an end, ♫

♫ Awaiting you, to leave this life together. ♫
