The Justice

Episode 11

She has been hanging around here since she was a kid.

I also wish you can stay here for a little longer.

It's just that maybe you won't like to

hear what I'm about to say.

Professor Lu, please say it.

I heard that you worked hard for the election

of the director

of the General Chamber of Commerce this time.

Secretary Feng dislikes Mr. Huang all the time,

but he was persuaded by you.

He tried his best to help Mr. Huang run for election.

Professor Lu, it's nothing.

It's just that Mr. Huang

has been a businessman for many years.

He's more

capable and respected than other candidates.

He should be elected as the director.

The goal of the General Chamber of Commerce

is to expand business and make business booming.

Its director is the leader

who helps industries

and takes power.

More importantly, it's his duty to revitalize the economy.

If Mr. Huang is elected as the director,

he'll help industries

and boost the economy.

Will he do that?

Why won't he do that?

Maybe you don't know that

Jing'an Branch

is busy building the Wande Garden

on Rue Amiral Bayle

to benefit people

and provide hawkers with

a great place.

Without Mr. Huang's help,

I'm afraid that

we can't do anything.

I'm afraid you said that too early.

After the Wande Garden is built,

its use may be

different from what you think.

In order to be elected as Chinese director

of the Municipal Council of the French Concession,

Huang Ruhong also promised that

he would do something for the benefit of Chinese.

However, after he was elected as Chinese director,

what he did first

is opening a new casino

on Bixun Road.

I knew nothing about that

and I didn't take part in it.

Yizhi,

you have a lot of capabilities.

What on earth are you gonna use them for?

Professor Lu,

I've already done so many things.

After you reminded me,

I managed to

provide Shenqin Cotton Mill with

all the money they need.

There was no chance left

for Zhaozheng Bank.

Is that enough?

Professor Lu,

I'm just a manager of the private bank.

Is there anything else you want me to do?

I want you to

stop using the word "just"

to describe your career.

You're an owner of the private bank

and a financier.

No one is more closer

to vanity than a financier.

It's easy for you

to go against your beliefs

and start to chase after wealth and fame.

I hope you

can stop being led astray

by Mr. Huang.

If chasing after wealth and fame

is wrong,

what can give me dignity?

Only after you realize that

your money

is no longer for chasing after wealth and fame

and it's now for helping industries,

benefiting people

and even promoting the development of the society,

can you have the real dignity.

Lu Caifu Taiwanese Company From Wu Zhifu

Lu, please open the envelope.

I've stayed in Chongqing for a week.

Today I called Lizi.

Because I went on a business trip suddenly

and I missed her speech.

She was so angry that

she declared that I was no longer qualified to be a father.

She wants to call me brother in the future.

My daughter is a teenager,

but she's of sharp intelligence.

Just now, she had a question for me.

"Since the financial sector

makes a profit on the interest

and in essence, it's about the exploitation,

why do you devote your life

to it?", she said.

I was very nervous.

It reminded me of

the fact that I discussed

loaning money to villages with you before.

We can't make a profit by doing that,

but it can benefit people.

Like what you said,

the financial sector

should use money to help people

and I should

adopt this policy as soon as possible.

No one is more closer to

vanity than a financier.

It's easy for you

to go against your beliefs

and start to chase after wealth and fame.

Listen.

The dignity I mean

is not being moderately well-off

or being a little bit successful.

It's the real existence,

which can make everyone

admire you.

I hope you

can stop being led astray

by Mr. Huang.

Boss,

I still haven't

found anything about the Rejuvenating Powder.

Have you visited all the gang members?

I've asked every gang member about that.

Gangs didn't do that.

What about bars of Nanyang

and brothels owned by foreigners?

I've been asking everywhere.

They have nothing to do with that.

Then start a rumor

to frame

Cheng Yizhi.

Yes.

I heard that Wande Garden

was already under construction.

Yes. People are busy

building it.

I know you're busy,

but I still need you to do something for me.

Master, please let me know.

A new club has been opened on Bixun Road.

It's the account book. Read it.

Account Book

People all pay attention to me

because I'm the new director.

There's something that I don't want others to know.

Since you work in Longying Private Bank,

edit those

profits for me.

Account Book

Shanghai Deposit Bank is selling their shares publicly.

Zhou Guangxian, 41 years old.

He was graduated from

Keio University of Japan.

He majored in economics.

Stock Market Accounting Exchange Rate Analysis Quotation Exchange

Eight years ago,

he was the director of Shanghai Deposit Bank.

After your father passed away,

he was recommended by the board of directors

and became the new general manager.

Is that all?

On the reverse side of this prospectus,

there's all the current organizational structure

Organizational Structure of Shanghai Deposit Bank

of Shanghai Deposit Bank

and heads of all departments.

If you want to know

who are relatives of Zhou Guangxian,

find them in the picture.

Organizational Structure of Shanghai Deposit Bank General Manager: Zhou Guangxian Deputy General Manager: Jiao Bozhong

Manager.

Are you still beavering away at the accounts?

Where did you go?

I seldom see you here.

Our facility on Bixun Road

has brought us a lot of money.

We can't balance

such a great amount of money.

Cheng Yizhi won't tell Heart-shaped Face that

the amazing profit in the account book

has made him worried.

He really has been affected

by Professor Lu.

He started to doubt that

there is an abyss behind

the pursuit of wealth and fame.

However, the Eldest Master

is standing on the road

which Professor Lu disdains.

Well,

have you donated the money allocated

to Tongzhou Charitable Foundation?

No. It's closed.

Is it closed?

Yes.

I heard that Jin Yishan had a stroke.

It happened two days ago.

Say it.

Master,

I've discovered something about

what you asked me to investigate.

The result is kind of surprising.

What have you discovered?

The person who's most related to the Rejuvenating Powder

is the assistant manager of Longying Private Bank.

His name is Pang Feng.

People call him Heart-shaped Face.

Heart-shaped Face?

And he's

the most trusted subordinate of Mr. Cheng.

A lot of people are involved in this matter.

I don't know if I should keep investigating it.

Lan.

Father, I'm here.

Lan,

help me put on my military uniform.

Help me put on it.

Father, take your time.

We'll celebrate the New Year together.

Lan, I can't protect you anymore.

Huang... Huang...

Huang Ruhong.

Huang Ruhong.

Father, I'm here.

Father.

Father.

Father!

Father!

Huang Residence No.8, Pushi Road

Mourning

Liao Lan Mourning

Father, please rest in peace

Ms. Lan,

sorry for your loss.

Mourning

Shanxi is the control of Yan Xishan.

Commander Liao is already over the hill.

Without

the Eldest Master,

how could he stay in the German Hospital

and receive treatment from Dr. Gu?

You've seen it this morning, right?

In the early morning, Commander Fang

came to flatter our master.

Does he want to become the commander-in-chief?

Can he become the commander-in-chief?

It all depends on

our master's willingness to support him secretly.

Those service members are smart now.

They know that times have changed.

In the past...

Mr. Lei, stop talking.

Maybe our master will get mad

after hearing what you said.

Don't worry.

Master is not here. He can't hear it.

Mr. Lei.

Lizi.

Not long ago Commander Liao passed away.

Ms. Lan treats you well

all the time.

Go there with me.

Why are you here?

Are you here to see Cheng Yizhi?

Where is he?

He went to Fuxiang Hall with our master.

Fuxiang Hall

is the other residence of our master.

I don't know why they went there.

But I heard that

women in Fuxiang Hall

are all gorgeous and charming.

They sleep with men.

You only drank with men before.

Can you satisfy Cheng Yizhi?

Mr. Lei,

your mouth is stinky today.

Go home and rinse your mouth.

Master.

Talk inside.

Come in.

I'm comfortable.

Do you know what it is?

No, I don't.

It's the Rejuvenating Powder.

It's made from opium.

It has been marketed since half a year ago.

It's getting more and more popular in Shanghai.

It's irritating.

It's very easy for people to become addicted to it.

During these days,

many people died because of

using it.

Its production, transport and selling

are all serious and secret.

The identity of the initiator remains a mystery.

There is convincing evidence that

our Jing'an Branch of Longying Private Bank

is related to this incident.

Master,

you know that

I hate the opium so much.

It's impossible for Jing'an Branch

to be related to this incident.

Hope you can investigate.

It is said that

the person involved is the assistant manager of Jing'an Branch.

His name is Pang Feng. People call him Heart-shaped Face.

You like him so much.

Heart-shaped Face?

Master,

Heart-shaped Face is not an addict

or

an evil man.

He can't be related to this incident.

I'm afraid that there's something strange about it.

Other people don't care about that.

They'll just

relate you,

Jing'an Branch of Longying Private Bank

and me

to this incident.

Think.

The director of the General Chamber of Commerce

is related to the Rejuvenating Powder.

How can I explain to others?

Master,

Heart-shaped Face is my subordinate.

His fault is also my fault.

Master, please give me ten days.

I'll investigate this incident thoroughly.

If Heart-shaped Face did do that,

I would take all the consequences.

Go investigate.

Who are you?

Me.

Bro, you...

Why are you here?

What's this?

Nothing, bro.

Get your hands off it!

Bro.

How dare you keep calling me bro?

Well, bro, listen to me.

After you forbade me from

using the opium last time,

I have never

touched it again.

I just want to use it to earn money,

honestly.

There's money to be made from it.

Bro.

Heart-shaped Face,

I've told you that

I hate the opium most.

As long as a person uses the opium,

he'll turn into

a ghost.

Bro.

Why did you sell it?

Bro.

Bro!

Let me go!

Bro. Bro. Bro!

Bro, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, bro.

I'm very disappointed in you,

Heart-shaped Face.

Bro, please... Please don't be like that.

I... I haven't started to

sell it yet.

I... I made it

with them yesterday.

I just got it yesterday.

I haven't started to sell it, honestly.

Even the Eldest Master knows about that,

but you said you hadn’t started to sell it.

No way!

I haven't got it

until yesterday, bro.

I swear.

You swear? How can you swear?

Before you swore that

you wouldn't sell the opium

or touch it.

But what about now?

I... I swear to God.

OK? Bro.

Then swear to God!

OK. I'll swear to God.

I'm Heart-shaped Face.

No.

I'm Pang Feng.

I swear to God

if I say

anything untrue today,

I'll be struck by lightning

and died painfully.

OK.

You're not allowed to stand up now.

Tell me. Who sold it to you?

Yin.

Yin, it's me.

Where is he?

I... I don't know.

How did you know Yin?

I met him in Huxi Restaurant.

But I don't know him well.

I just begged him,

and wanted to get goods from him.

You were being used.

By whom?

The Elder Master just became

the Director of General Chamber of Commerce.

How many people

are gunning for him?

What you did

involved our Longying Private Bank.

What do you

want the Elder Master to do?

Am I going to die?

Am I going to die?

Bro... Bro...

Bro Cheng, save me.

Stop it.

The priority is

figuring it out.

Go.

Go!

Good evening.

Wait.

Am I smelly?

Where have you been this afternoon?

Ms. Lan looked for you everywhere.

I ran errands for master.

What errand?

A smell of perfume.

A smell of perfume?

Yeah.

It's the smell of burning money.

Lei said

you and master

went to the demimonde.

What else did he say?

He told me

Fuxiang Hall was a guesthouse of master.

He's a giant blabbermouth.

At least he didn't go there.

The women in Fuxiang Hall

are all sexy and

hard-core.

Can't you guys reject them

when you see them,

right?

Who told you that?

Do you... you...

because we didn't...

you... you...

Is that right?

What... what did you say?

Say it again.

You know what I am saying.

I know

you're jealous.

Go, go, go away.

What jealous?

Who's jealous?

You can go

wherever you want to go.

You can get

whoever you like.

I'm a man.

I admit, I always wanna...

have sex

with you.

But it doesn't mean that

I have to get another woman

since I don't have sex with you.

Are you clear?

Trust me.

You didn't take a mistress.

Did the Elder Master do?

Keep it to yourself.

Don't tell Ms. Lan.

Commander Liao just passed away.

If Ms. Lan knows

her husband took a mistress,

how will she be okay?

Did you know it a long time ago?

No. I didn't know until today.

Take off your clothes.

Strip down.

Take off...

For what?

What are you thinking about?

You... you take off

your clothes

and I wash them for you.

The smell's giving me a headache.

Well.

Wait for me

to take them off one by one.

Take them off.

Fine, enough.

Stop. Stop.

Alright!

Don't take them off.

Go inside. Go.

Take a shower.

And get your clothes

clean.

Go.

Don't take them off?

Go. You suck.

My God.

Did the Elder Master do?

Keep it to yourself.

Don't tell Ms. Lan.

Did you know it a long time ago?

No. I didn't know until today.

Why don't you ask Cheng Yizhi

to buy some paintings from me?

I have some Mi Fu's paintings

which are good imitations.

Have you been to Fuxiang Hall?

Don't underestimate me.

It's the most famous demimonde.

So many celebrities

linger there.

In order to collect information,

I've been there many times.

Huang Ruhong's guesthouse is there.

Are you sure?

What opium would you like?

Rejuvenating Powder.

Everyone wants it.

But it's expensive.

Do you have cash?

Is that for here

or to take away?

For here.

OK. Please wait here.

I'll get it ready right away.

Yaen University

Yu, come on.

Go home earlier after your rehearsal.

OK.

Don't be too late.

Here you are.

Papa, bye.

Bye bye.

Mr. Jiao. How are you doing?

What are you doing here?

Drive.

Yaen University

Boss, here he is.

Mr. Xue.

Miss Zhiyun

of Linglan Parlor dispatched me

Zhiyun

to pick up some goods from you.

What goods?

You know.

How much does she want?

Please sit down.

Lad,

a carton weighs five Jin.

Listen to you.

What's Linglan Parlor?

And Who are the guests

of Miss Zhiyun?

The two cartons are not much at all.

Let me start by saying

the price per Jin should be this amount.

Or you walk.

If Miss Zhiyun didn't want them urgently,

I wouldn't pay you this amount.

Now we have a deal

that you have to supply from stock.

No problem.

The Rejuvenating Powder

costs more day by day.

If we stock them,

we'll make much money.

How about supplying me with some?

I'm so sorry.

If you want some,

you have to wait for four days.

Four days?

Mr. Xue, are you

serious?

As it's so popular.

I want to sell it every day.

But you know,

it's scant.

Even so,

you still have it in stock.

Boss! Boss!

Oh, something happened.

Boss!

What... what are you doing?

How many goods do you have?

Hand them over!

There might be a misunderstanding.

The goods are not mine,

not mine.

We worked for Mr. Wen

with the generation name of Tong.

How dare I smuggle those goods

under his nose?

Right?

He offered you opium in Yunnan and opium in Sichuan

but you didn't want to sell them.

What on earth do you want to sell?

Rejuvenating Powder?

No...

You might not rejuvenate.

Let's go.

Pull over.

Leave us alone.

Mr. Jiao.

I thought

you were involved in my father's case

and worked in Tianjin Branch.

I didn't expect that

you came back

within a couple months.

And you even became the vice general manager.

Lizi.

Both my transfer away from and back to Shanghai

are the decisions of the bank.

Moreover,

I heard about

what happened to you and your mother.

When I returned Shanghai,

I was asking about you

but found nothing.

Really?

Yeah.

It's true.

Mr. Jiao.

My father carried out stock reforms

in Shanghai Deposit Bank,

with you being his trusted aide.

Mr. Jiao,

Mr. Zhou

and my father were enemies.

Out of everyone,

you should know that.

How...

How could you

succeed in

becoming

Zhou's aide

so easily?

I'm so confused.

Lizi.

You're so young.

You don't know

how complex the banking affairs are.

Young as I am,

I also know

there must be conditions

behind benefits.

You...

Mr. Jiao.

How the hell did you sell out my father

to gain Zhou's trust?

Mr. Cheng.

I investigated outlanders' favorite

Kaiqi Apartment and Fengsi Dancing Hall.

And I also looked into

Rd. Glock Opium,

the favorite of traders from Nanyang.

They and prostitutes there

are all buyers of Rejuvenating Powder,

not sellers.

According to them,

they found the powder

when they came to Shanghai.

It seems that the powder

doesn't come from Europe

nor Nanyang.

I heard from Yin

that it might be

sold by gangs.

No.

What gangs sell

is traditional opium.

Moreover, since Rejuvenating Powder

entered the market,

the monthly fall in opium prices

put a squeeze on profits.

Now all gangs

are investigating the powder.

Anyone

who smuggled it

would receive the death penalty.

Who the hell is the seller?

Mr. Jiao.

As my father died for no reason,

you couldn't possibly ignore that.

That day when

you told me

and my mom his death,

you weren't faking

to be frantic.

If you care a little bit

about your relationship with my father,

please tell me

what Zhou did

to my father.

Your honesty today

would be the best compensation to my father.

Lizi,

I've treated you as my daughter.

You lost your father

so I'm gonna let it go by.

But if you keep messing me about,

I...

If you want me

to compensate your father...

How about

bringing you to the office

of the general manager of Shanghai Deposit Bank,

and letting you

confront Mr. Zhou,

OK?

Do you dare?

Lizi.

You'd better

get out of the car.

Did you have a nightmare?

I saw you struggling

but I dared not awake you.

I'm fine. Go back to sleep.

How could you be fine?

Drink some honey water to calm down.

How about

singing a song for you?

Sing a song?

Like putting children to sleep.

When you had a nightmare,

did your mom sing you to sleep?

When I was young,

I lost my mom.

Let me sing you.

♫ Lullaby, ♫

♫ and good night ♫

♫ Moon and clouds hung low ♫

♫ With lilies o'er spread ♫

♫ Is my baby's sweet head ♫

♫ Lullaby, ♫

♫ and good night ♫

♫ I'll sing you to sleep ♫

♫ Lullaby, ♫

♫ and good night ♫

♫ I'll sing you to sleep ♫

I got wrong information.

Huang Ruhong has a mistress indeed.

This man

keeps his identity well hidden.

Oh,

pay attention to Cheng Yizhi.

He... he... does he have a mistress too?

Nonsense.

So... for what?

He has been behaving unusually these days.

Unusually?

He has always had nightmares at night.

He told me

the Elder Master

sent him on errands.

But he never told me

specific details.

What do you expect me to find out?

Should he have a problem

or not...?

It depends on

what you can find out.

OK.

Well, do me another favor.

Chunqiu English Club is

about to rehearse Northanger Abbey.

Could you please

get the casting director's business card?

What do you wanna do?

Please.

Sir, please,

give some money.

Madam, please,

give me some money.

Gongji Store

Madam, give some money please.

Sir, sir.

Give me money.

Give me some money.

Give you money to smoke opium?

Without opium, I would be painful.

Have you heard of rheumatism?

Sir.

Thank you.

-Sir. -Heart-shaped Face,

you go to the pharmacies,

clinics and hospitals

right away.

Check

if there are patients

who had

some wonder drug

to relieve the symptoms sharply.

The drug might not be

supplied anymore.

So they had to live with Rejuvenating Powder.

You must find those patients

who think

wonder drug is extremely similar to

Rejuvenating Powder.

Pharmacies, hospitals...

Sir, it's...

Opium possesses properties of anesthesia.

It can be used to ease pain.

And Rejuvenating Powder

which is extracted from opium

works wonders on easing pain.

If the powder

isn't from Europe,

nor Nanyang,

nor local gangs,

it might be possible

used in medical purposes.

But some canny businessmen

made a profit on it.

Go check.

Yu,

you are playing so well today.

Father, you're back!

Why are you so happy?

I’m so excited.

We are playing the piano.

Come on. Come on.

This is the casting director of

Chunqiu English Drama Club, Miss Daisy.

This is my father.

He's the manager of Shanghai Deposit Bank.

Mr. Jiao, nice to meet you.
