=Young Babylon=

Boss Hu,

I see the articulated truck has arrived.

Are we handling
some big business again soon?

Definitely.

Once we finish this job,

I'll take you to Singapore,
Malaysia, and Thailand.

Great.

Where's Laowu?

He's cutting the watermelon.

It's been a while.

Laowu!

Boss Hu!

Boss Hu!

Surprised to see you here,

Lu Dajiang.

You timed it perfectly to join us
for watermelon, didn't you?

I warn you.

Don't mess with my cousin again.

Hey, Lu Dajiang,

you're wrong here.

Your cousin and I

have no grievances.

I'm just getting paid to do a job.

Besides,

what has your cousin been up to?

Don't be impulsive. Listen to me.

Your cousin's been undermining
others' businesses,

and messing with others' women.

If this were the underworld,

that would get him killed.

Dajiang,

you'd better go back

and advise your cousin to stop.

Don't be impulsive.

Let's talk this out calmly.

I'm a law-abiding citizen now.

I don't want to get physical with you.

But my cousin is my red line.

If you dare touch him again,

even if it means I end up in jail forever

or pay with my life,

I won't let you off.

I promise you.

- Boss Hu!
- I swear.

If I touch your cousin again,

may lightning

strike me down.

Alright?

What era does he think this is?

Still playing that with me.

I'll find a way to settle this
once and for all.

=Episode 24=
=Never Thought of Parting=

After all this,

I didn't even get you to the hotel.

Stay here for the night.

I've got everything prepared for you.

I know you're worried.

If you stay here,

Huang Qing might do something to me.

He didn't want the factory to restart,

so he had someone beat up Master Niu.

He didn't want us to collaborate,

so he had someone beat you.

I really don't know

what he might do next.

From the day I returned to Fucheng,

I've been losing.

What's more ridiculous

is how much I trusted him.

I thought he would help me.

I thought
I could revive the food factory.

Turns out

I was too naive.

I don't want you to get hurt.

Please try this. Have a taste.

Sure.

Does everyone have it?

Here, give it a try.

- I have one too?
- Sure.

Try it.

- What's this?
- I've never seen it before.

This drink was personally mixed
by Mr. Lu for you guys.

You can have a try.

Is it good?

Over the years,

our company's sales network

has been able
to spread throughout the province,

all thanks to our wholesale partners.

I sincerely thank everyone here.

Mr. Lu,

by calling us here today,

are you planning to distribute money?

You won't want

my little money.

Actually, today I invited everyone here

to ask for a favor.

What favor?

Looks like such a big deal.

As you know,

I was also

a part of the food factory.

Recently, an investment company
from Shanghai

became the major shareholder
of the food factory

and even plans to demolish the factory
for land redevelopment.

This not only means

the workers
wouldn't get the money they're owed,

but they would also be laid off.

These past few years,

such cases have been
too numerous to count,

all mired in disputes,

and nobody can do anything about it.

But we can't just watch the workers

struggle to make ends meet.

So,

my good friend from Shanghai,

the experienced investment manager
Bai Lan,

and I have decided

to develop a new product

for the food factory

for the workers to produce.

We'll handle the sales,

allowing them to earn their due wages

through their labor.

What's this new product?

The one you're holding now.

Try it again.

It tastes

a bit like the popular
Taiwanese milk tea recently,

but the flavor of jasmine

seems a bit stronger.

Our new product

is the "Golden Peacock Milk Tea".

This milk tea powder

was personally developed by Mr. Lu.

Besides having a unique flavor,

it's also easy to transport

and has a long shelf life,

suitable for sales nationwide.

Bai Lan and I will invest together

to retrofit the existing equipment.

The production might not be large,

but we're not aiming to make a profit,

just to ensure the workers

can live normally.

I must say

if the initial production volume is small,

distributors like us

might not see much profit.

If it doesn't sell well,

then we're all doomed.

That's right.

I understand.

If it loses money,

I, Lu Xiaolu,

owe everyone a debt.

I will repay it,

even if it means
selling everything I own.

But if it makes money,

aside from the workers' share,

I want nothing.

All profits will be distributed
among you all.

Mr. Lu,

that would be

too great a sacrifice for you.

If Mr. Lu's money isn't enough,

I can share the burden with him.

Anyway, our promises are written

in the contracts.

If we fail to fulfill them,

you can sue us.

We know Mr. Lu's character.

We still trust him.

I have no problem

with giving it a try.

I agree.

What about you all?

Sure.

Mr. Lu,

you really haven't left any way out
for yourself, have you?

It's so nice of you
to help the food factory like this.

I truly admire you

from the bottom of my heart.

So,

if there's anything you need,

just tell me.

Just tell us.

Sure.

Thank you, everyone.

Let's have a toast then.

- Let's do it.
- Come on. Cheers!

Come on.

Come on.

Take care on your way out.

Thank you. Thank you.

Take care.

- Take care.
- Thank you, thank you.

- Hey, sir.
- Take care, take care.

- Thanks for your support.
- You're too kind.

Just send me ten cases to start, okay?

No problem, no problem.

- Take care.
- Remember that.

- Take care.
- No problem.

Definitely. We've got you covered.

- All set, all set.
- Thanks, thanks.

Take it easy. Slow down.

Thanks!

- Keep in touch.
- Take care.

Thanks.

(Xiongdi Food Trading Company Ltd)

My mom says

it can protect you.

(Dajiang Entertainment)

Mr. Huang,

what brings you here?

Where's Miss Bai?

From today onward,

I'm taking over all matters
at the food factory.

You're really decisive.

Just as you arrive,

our factory

starts up again.

Did you hear?

Many workers came back to work today.

Back to work?

Yeah.

Mr. Huang.

Since they're back,
what can we produce now?

Will it make money?

Yes, it will.

Well,

Manager Bai said

we're going to use the factory workshop

to make a batch of this milk tea powder.

After selling it,

the money will be returned to everyone

to make up

for the wages owed

and cover the medical expenses.

Who do they think they are?

On this list,

anyone over fifty,

with a record of absenteeism,

who's been late or left early
more than three times,

and those who returned to work today

without factory notification,

are all fired.

Mr. Ma,

you're nearly fifty, aren't you?

I don't want it to be your turn next.

Mr. Huang,

if you want to fire me,

there's nothing I can do.

But

if you want to drive away my brothers,

I can't do that.

(Security Department)

(Security Department)

My biggest worry right now

is this Huang Qing.

He's capable of anything,

and I'm afraid the workers
won't be able to withstand it.

The workers are the owners
of the factory.

Even if Huang Qing
wanted them to leave,

it wouldn't be easy.

So, this battle

is not yet decided.

You guys go ahead and talk.

I need to step out and make a few calls.

Happy now?

I already know everything.

The Italians breached the contract,

and Bai Lan got fired.

You came just to tell me this?

Xiaolu,

I've said it before.

Let's go.

There's no need
to keep fighting for the factory.

Let's do our own business.

We have a bright future ahead.

I've said it before too.

Once I've decided something,

I won't give up easily.

I just don't understand.

Everything's gotten to this point,

and you still
can't see the situation clearly.

Their mess has nothing to do with you.

People are wicked,

and your kind heart

might not lead to a good outcome.

If you keep going, you'll end up hurt.

So what if I end up hurt?

Did you know me just now?

Lu Xiaolu, haven't you grown at all

over these years?

The moment you see Bai Lan,

you forget everything you've said,
don't you?

She's just using you.

Can't you see that?

I've reported the situation
of the food factory

to the city officials.

They've agreed in principle

to buy 100% of the food factory's shares

and then build a commercial plaza

on the site.

If everything goes smoothly,

we should be

putting out a tender soon.

Don't worry.

As for that,

I'll handle it.

I've prepared all the documents,

so let's sign the share transfer contract
as soon as possible,

to avoid any more complications.

Of course.

How are things on the worker's side?

Don't worry.

I have both soft

and hard measures prepared.

I've blocked every path
to save the factory.

They have no other choice now.

Good.

Then I'll be leaving now.

I look forward to hearing good news.

That person over there
has been following us for two days.

Who is he?

I've checked him out.

He's Lu Xiaolu's partner,

named Li Guangnan.

He seems troubled.

Maybe we should help him.

So you really resigned?

Then all your years of effort

are wasted.

Let it be.

If it's the wrong path,

the further you go,
the harder it is to return.

Have you heard the story
of the little fish searching for the ocean?

Once,

there was a little fish

aimlessly swimming in the water.

One day,

another fish told it

that far, far away,

there was an ocean

where the waters were much broader,

and it might
live a different life there.

So this little fish

began searching for the ocean,

swimming hard every day,

exhausted to the brink of death.

Until one day,

it couldn't swim anymore.

It followed a big fish
swimming in the river

and asked it,

"Do you know where the ocean is?"

The big fish said,

"This is the ocean."

I feel like over these years,

I've been like this little fish,

searching for the ocean.

I've worked tirelessly,

trying to become stronger,

because only then

will others not bully me.

But according to your story,

isn't the little fish getting closer

to its ocean?

Not really.

Because the path to success

has no end.

It was only during my return to Fucheng

that I realized

during my time in Shanghai,

I worked relentlessly,

always pushing forward,

but I had forgotten

what I was searching for.

You always make decisions so resolutely,

following your heart,

without even a fallback plan.

Should I call you brave

or crazy?

That's what life means.

Living freely,

and doing what you want.

Loving who you should.

I've truly come to terms with it.

You should be happy for me.

So, have you found the person you love?

I've seen how things have developed

between you and Xiaolu.

Why don't you try

following the call of your heart?

Following what call?

Right.

How are things with Li Guangnan?

Ever since he fell out with Xiaolu,

he's been like a lost soul,

wandering outside every day,

coming home late

with a smell of alcohol.

I really don't understand these two.

They've been brothers for so long.

Why can't they just talk it out?

They've been partners for many years.

Li Guangnan has given a lot.

If it were me,

I'd feel terrible too.

Speaking of giving,

Xiaolu has given the most.

You don't know

how hard he's had it these years.

Big Feet is working outside,

so he's been giving his salary

to Xiaoying,

even when he made no money.

Li Guangnan

is big-handed in his business,

always wanting to invest

with what he's earned for more profits.

He often lost more than what he gained.

In the end, it was always Xiaolu
who took care of his mess.

Sometimes,

I feel he's had it tough,

but he's like someone in a frenzy.

Without Xiaolu,

none of us

would be where we are today.

But both of them are stubborn.

Neither is willing to back down.

Spend more time with Li Guangnan.

After I'm done with my busy days,

I'll invite him for a meal

to make amends.

Yeah.

He's so stubborn.

Left to his own,

he'd come up with nothing.

His birthday is coming.

Let's properly spoil him.

Mr. Huang, you asked me to meet you.

Isn't it because you were interested
in me first?

Looks like you know everything.

Catching mice is no fun.

I like to be straightforward.

Mr. Li,

have some coffee.

Since you like to be straightforward,

let's skip the pretense.

Tell me. What do you need?

Mr. Li, there's no need
to be hostile towards me.

Although you're Lu Xiaolu's partner,

I'm Miss Bai's boss,

and we stand on different sides,

we don't necessarily have to be enemies.

What do you mean?

I'm well aware of your current troubles,

because I face the same troubles.

Why don't we collaborate

to set things back on track?

You mean

you want me to help you
stop their cooperation.

We both understand

their impulsive actions

will result in mutual destruction,

which neither of us

wants to see.

You underestimate them.

Together,

they're like one person.

I can't separate them,

neither can you.

It seems you really understand them.

Compared with my wife,

Lu Xiaolu might be the one
I know more about.

You wouldn't want

all of Xiaolu's efforts over the years

to go to waste, right?

Once this is done,

I'll leave Fucheng with Bai Lan,

but I know your business is expanding.

After it's settled,

I can help you
enter the East China market,

and even

invest in you.

Forget about investing.

It looks like
you invested in a food factory,

but you're really
just interested in the land.

Working with someone like you

would probably cost me sleep.

Mr. Li, that's a fresh perspective.

I like it.

Stop pretending.

The food factory has long been defunct.

It's worthless.

It's just that the land is still valuable.

You really think I don't know

that little scheme of yours
with Mayor Bi?

What are your demands?

Don't touch Xiaolu,

or the people at the food factory.

Come on.

I'm just doing business.

It was your men

who hit my master and Lu Xiaolu, right?

You could never

let Xiaolu and Bai Lan
revive the factory.

Just say it outright.

What's your next step?

Are you planning
to remove Xiaolu as an obstacle

or to dismantle the food factory?

That depends on which one
you least want to see.

Give me some time.

I'll help you stop their cooperation.

Good.

I like working with smart people.

Now, Mr. Li,
will you drink the coffee I offered?

Sure.

But

after you acquire the land,

I want permanent leasing rights

to the piece
on the east side of the factory.

I didn't expect it to be so popular.

That land used to belong

to the hottest skating rink in Fucheng,

and it's something I owe someone.

It seems you value your promises.

But sorry,

that land has already been claimed
by someone else.

Then it depends

on whether you think I'm worth it or not.

Are you hungry?

Here, have some water.

You haven't come to see me these days,

nor answered my calls.

What have you been doing?

I've been a bit busy these days.

Dajiang,

would you consider

becoming the security manager

at the hotel?

Don't you want to work with me
every day?

I can see you every day
even as a street sweeper.

Being a sanitation worker is so free.

Unless you despise me now.

I...

I don't despise you.

How could I possibly despise you?

I just can't stop worrying about you.

Are you going to
keep hiding things from me?

I run a hotel.

All sorts of people come and go.

What news don't I hear?

That Huang Qing from Shanghai

is going against Xiaolu
with Boss Hu, right?

You're not the person you used to be.

Now, you're no match for Boss Hu.

Huang Qing and Mayor Bi

are his backing.

Xiaolu is no match for them.

But I can't just watch him be bullied.

You're too naive.

Boss Hu is just looking for a chance
to retaliate against you.

Don't deliver yourself to him.

Dajiang,

have you thought about leaving Fucheng

for a different life?

I have a few friends in Southeast Asia

who want me to expand my business there.

I'm thinking of buying a hotel

in Pattaya, Thailand,

and then you can help me run it.

We could get away from Fucheng,

away from Boss Hu and our enemies.
How about that?

What about here?

I've talked to Xiaolu about it.

He fully supports you leaving with me.

Later, I'll gradually

liquidate the assets here.

Do we really have to go?

Yes.

Let's go to a place

where no one knows us,

away from all these grudges.

I believe you'll start to be happy.

Then do me a favor.

Huang Qing is so bold.

Surely, he's in league with Mayor Bi.

I need to know what they're really up to.

You're right.

Sticking with Xiaolu hasn't helped much.

I have to find their weakness.

That's the only way to truly help him.

After this is dealt with,

will you leave?

I've told you.

I won't leave you again.

Wherever you go,

I'll follow.

Mr. Li,

what are you and Mr. Lu up to?

Surely, you two

are not just joking with us, right?

How could that be?

There's something
you might not know yet.

I've split from Mr. Lu.

I stand here today

to represent Shanghai Huaxing Group.

Mr. Huang of Shanghai Huaxing

is about to buy the land
of the food factory

to build the largest

and most luxurious shopping plaza
in Fucheng.

Actually, I know

Mr. Lu asked for your help
with the food factory

to help the workers earn more money,

but this act

has seriously interfered
with the city's plans

for the food factory.

Your endeavor is doomed to fail,

and you won't gain any benefits.

What exactly are you trying to tell us?

It's simple.

Terminate your cooperation
with the food factory.

Of course,

we won't let you walk away empty-handed.

Mr. Huang has said

that if you agree
to terminate the cooperation,

when the shopping plaza opens,

if you want to rent a shop,

you'll receive a substantial discount.

And

Mr. Huang has prepared 200,000 yuan.

If you agree today

to terminate the cooperation,

you can take the money right away.

Mr. Li,

you're really

undermining Mr. Lu here.

No, no, no.

I'm saving him.

Even if you team up,

you're destined
to lose against Mr. Huang.

If you still remember

the good Mr. Lu once did for you,

then don't hurt him anymore.

Mr. Li,

we've already promised Mr. Lu,

remembering his kindness to us,

so we won't do anything dishonorable.

Don't speak so absolutely.

We're all businessmen here.

Who doesn't want to make money?

Today, we're not making it hard for you.

If you agree,

this crisp 10,000 yuan

is yours to take immediately.

Mr. Li,

whatever personal grievances

you have with Mr. Lu

are none of our business,

but a man's promise

is worth its weight in gold.

We can't just back out

of our agreement with Mr. Lu.

- Yes, exactly.
- Right.

- Makes sense.
- So,

we definitely can't

take this money.

We can't accept it.

Mr. Li,

in this world,

the word "'honor''

must be engraved in our hearts.

Honor?

Are you all blind?

Turning down easy money?

Are you mad?

Mr. Li,

sorry,

but this is money

we can't afford to enjoy.

- Right. Let's go.
- Let's leave.

Don't just drink.

It's bad for your stomach.

If it hurts, it hurts.

I probably won't live
many more years anyway.

Stop saying that.

Nonsense.

You're not that old.

You still have to contribute to society.

Contribute?

The factory is nearly gone.

What contributions can I make?

China is so big.

You can contribute anywhere.

Why stick to this broken factory?

You don't understand.

When I was this tall,

I entered this factory.

I've touched every machine,

every pipe,

every valve,

every switch

in the factory.

For decades,

I've watched them

from shining bright

to rusty now.

They're broken

and leaking.

Whenever it's windy and rainy,

I seem to hear them calling to me,

"Master Niu,

come,

and have a drink."

Dad,

I need to talk to you.

Just talk.

Why are you taking my cup?

You know

that Xiaolu

merged his business with the factory,

and because of this, he and Li fell out.

Logically,

I support Li,

but emotionally,

I can't blame Xiaolu.

He's not wrong,

and he just did

what many people wish to do

but dare not.

But being caught in the middle,

I feel really down.

So, I talked it over with Big Feet,

and we've decided to leave Fucheng.

You can go wherever you want.

No one is stopping you.

I want you to leave with us.

How can I leave you here alone?

I was born in Fucheng,

grew up in Fucheng,

and I'll die in Fucheng.

Dad...

With the factory facing such difficulties,

you expect me to leave?

I can't do it.

- Dad.
- I...

It's about to rain.

I need to go check on the factory.

You've just had a drink.

It's okay.

I'm fine.

You old fool,

if I wasn't afraid of you
being bullied again,

do you think I'd want to leave Fucheng?

Something's wrong!

Hurry!

Master Niu,

someone's trying to smash
our golden peacock statue!

Smash it!

- What are you doing?
- Stop!

Get down from there!

Stop! Stop!

What are you doing?

Hurry down!

Who are you guys?

What unit are you from?

What does it matter to you
who I am, which unit I'm from?

- I...
- The factory's shut down.

Why do you need this thing anyway?

Smash it!

Stop! What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Don't hit anyone!

Stop messing around!

We have orders from our leaders.

The whole factory has to be demolished.

It's no use resisting.

Which leader said that?

Name them.

Which leader?

- Try smashing it!
- Stop!

I'm telling you.

If you dare smash it again,

today you won't leave

without severe injuries.

- Right!
- Watch your stick!

I'm telling you the truth.

The Golden Peacock Food Factory,

this broken factory,

is going to be demolished
to build a shopping plaza.

Plaza?

If it's not today,

it'll be demolished tomorrow.

You can continue this commotion.

There's a reason

behind your failure.

Let's go.

- Get out!
- Get out!

- Don't be afraid!
- Get out of here!

They came to deliver a message.

We weren't raised to be scared.

Mr. Ma,

we probably need to keep someone
at the workshop overnight.

- Right.
- Otherwise,

these kids will cause trouble.

There's nothing else we can do.

- Okay, I'll go notify everyone now.
- Sure.

You guys keep an eye on the main gate.

Alright.

You two go up and check.

If anything's loose,

secure it.

Otherwise, it could fall
and hurt someone.

- Alright, Master.
- Go and check.
