WAREHOUSE IN MOPON

MOKOK CHECKPOINT

Open your mouth.

Raise your tongue.

Next.

Tongue.

Next.

Next.

Stop.

You, stop!

Stop.

-You little brat! -Stop right there.

What are you doing?

I passed Long's inspection. It's not my fault.

What are you doing?

All right.

You little brat, what are you doing?

Tie him up. Chase that one with me.

How dare you bite me!

Do you want to die? Stand still, you little brat!

HAISHAN GEM-MINE, MOKOK

Don't go down there, it's dangerous. It's dangerous.

You little brat. I told you not to run.

-Bro. -What are you doing?

Duan Si, you can't go down. There are detonators down there.

-How come? -We just buried them yesterday.

Look, this is the fuse. Mr. Wu wants to detonate it.

If you go up and down and create a spark, it will set off an explosion.

Fuck!

I told you not to run.

Si. The Bo tribe workers want to take the child.

Go take care of it.

What's going on?

Lock it.

L… lock it?

Lock it. You said there are detonators.

Let's go.

Please let me go.

Don't lock it.

Let me go. Let me go.

Let me go, please.

Go away. Go away.

Get back.

Mokok hasn't seen

such a large Pigeon Blood Gem in decades.

This is not a Pigeon Blood Gem, just an ordinary ruby.

Get lost.

Get lost.

There's nothing to see here.

2,000,000 BOMO CURRENCY REWARD

For tissues, it is a square with a twig on top. Like the character for Zhan.

For instant noodles, it's a circle with a cross.

A circle with a cross.

For Coke, it is two circles.

Like Lv?

For cigarettes, it is a spiral circle.

A spiral circle.

For alcohol, it is an inverted triangle.

Instant noodles are 50 a piece.

Coke is 30.

-They are in Bomo? -In RMB.

That expensive? A bottle of Coke costs 30 yuan?

Drug traffickers in the mountains

have more trouble spending money than making money.

So these are not expensive.

They don't know what the prices outside are anyway.

Do they trust Mr. Cai that much?

No, I didn't mean to doubt Mr. Cai.

Aren't all drug traffickers locals?

Mr. Cai is Chinese and speaks Cantonese.

How did he and the drug traffickers…

Have you heard of General Bobei?

Mr. Cai's father was from Guangdong.

He dealt in the herbal medicine business.

He came to the Trilateral Slopes decades ago to collect wild lingzhi.

Unexpectedly, he married General Bobei's daughter,

so he stayed here.

To be honest, all the drug traffickers in the mountains

used to be soldiers who fought with General Bobei.

To some extent,

they have all been taken care of by Mr. Cai's father,

so they respect Mr. Cai.

After General Bobei fell from power in the '90s,

Mr. Cai gave up the chance to be the king of the mountain

and the opportunity to sell drugs to support troops.

Making a living by supplying water,

he is the most suitable candidate.

-Why? -Because he has no conflict.

With drug traffickers of any kind, when it comes to profit.

Why doesn't Mr. Cai himself deal drugs?

Supplying water is just to make money off the drug traffickers.

Remember.

Mr. Cai's people in To-pan never deal drugs.

This is the bottom line.

It's time to go.

The next step is fetching water. You can try it yourself.

You drive on the right on the road to the Trilateral Slopes.

But there are many Japanese cars on the road,

and those steering wheels are also on the right.

Do you even know how to drive?

That doesn't matter.

You just need to adapt and pay more attention.

The road condition of Kyu-lawn is not good.

But the daily goods are resilient to the conditions. Just drive.

Be careful when you come to a fork in the road.

If you're not careful and take a wrong turn,

you won't find a place to turn around within even a few kilometers.

Once you're off the national highway, it's just bad roads.

Just be more careful.

Be careful if it's raining.

Whether it rains the day before or it suddenly rains,

you must bring tow locks, tow-ropes and such.

If you're not in luck and encounter a landslide,

then don't take that road anymore.

There are two other roads for you to detour to.

In short, be bold but careful.

Even if knives were to fall from the sky, the goods you pick up that day

must be stored in the warehouse on the same day.

Don't worry about bumps and scrapes.

In the Trilateral Slopes,

this vehicle is used for transporting people and goods.

It's equivalent to your vans.

Here, the food is expensive, but the cars are cheap.

GOOD, PEOPLE

Good luck.

And bring small bags of rice, flour and oil.

Good luck.

You could interpret it as charity.

But actually this is the best way to save trouble.

There's a flat stretch of land in the middle.

The local army has set up a checkpoint there.

There's a post there day and night.

Wrap up 100,000 Bomo by using the newspaper.

Just hand it over.

Mr. Cai has already taken care of the military.

What's this for?

Delivering goods.

What's this for?

Don't move.

Don't move.

Don't move.

Hands up.

Don't move.

Mr. Cai. Mr. Cai.

How was it?

If you're really not used to it,

then go deal with the small orders in Monung.

How?

In To-pan, apart from supplying water,

the remaining major part of the business is delivering electronic products.

Mobile phones in the Trilateral Slopes can't connect to the internet at all.

These things basically have no market locally.

But it's different for tourists.

These things are cheaper here than in the duty-free stores at the airport.

If I do this, no one will point guns at me, right?

It's safe. Just delivering mobile phones.

Okay.

This is a left-hand drive car previously used by Mr. Cai.

You should be able to get used to driving it.

We pick up the goods in Landpley,

enter Bomo through the Kyu-lawn checkpoint,

and finally supply to those duty-free stores in Monung.

We've already taken care of the border inspection point.

That.

But these parallel goods are of high value.

They're tightly checked, so you can't be too conspicuous.

Make sure they're not seen that easily,

and then there will absolutely be no problem.

Alright.

Isn't this smuggling?

You pay the taxes and life is getting better and better.

We pay taxes, but they don't do anything at all.

Then can I

not deliver this anymore?

Where are the cookies?

I got a separate box before I left.

This needs to be taken back to To-pan. Mr. Cai wants to make a gold statue.

With cookies?

Isn't Mr. Cai's village very big?

Why did he get you such a place to live?

I'm not one of their people.

I'm just a driver who runs errands.

What's wrong with staying here? Isn't it quite nice?

That's true.

It's better to keep your distance from those people.

Here you are.

What do you think?

I have no idea how I'm going to get my uncle back.

Aren't you going back to China?

It's more reliable to make money back home.

I want to go back too.

But my parents are wanting to get divorced again.

Staying at home makes me feel bad.

Might as well stay far away.

Just the money for my mother's treatment and my sister's education.

It's not like I can't earn it in my own way.

Alright. Let me know if you need my help.

I'll definitely help if I can.

Let's try it.

-Okay now? -I think so.

I'll take another look.

-Your phone is ringing. -It's not my ringtone.

Hello.

-Hello. -Why do you have Shen Jiandong's phone?

-Where is Shen Jiandong? -Shen Jiandong is my uncle.

You know where he is?

Your uncle?

I am a friend of Shen Jiandong. Now the site is empty. What's going on?

He went to ask Sangkang for the project payment.

He couldn't come back from the war now.

Can you reach him?

Hello. Can you hear me?

I'll try.

Thank you.

Hello.

Who is it? Is it news about your uncle?

He said he was my uncle's friend.

He said he could help me find my uncle.

Can't believe it. Is he reliable?

Xing.

It worked it out itself.

That's a good sign. I think you will make it.

Good sign.

Chinese.

Come pick up the goods.

Just go.

What are you going to do?

What are you going to do?

I'm sorry.

Can't you do it or don't you want to do it?

What's wrong?

Look.

Come here.

Mr. Cai wants you to drive this car to the Gem-Market of Mokok

and stay for two days, and then bring these two back.

Deliver people? Why didn't Mr. Cai ask me to go?

Tuo. Perhaps you can ask Scrag to do it.

I don't know the road to Mokok.

Mokok?

Then I'm not going.

Let him go. After such a big thing happened,

it's a mess these days.

Now delivering people there, Mr. Cai might…

Why are you so talkative?

Tuo, what's wrong?

Big things happen in the Trilateral Slopes every day.

There's nothing new about it.

Who are these two people?

Opera performers.

Opera?

With the puppets?

The driver has to stay there for two days.

To-pan has no idle man now, except you.

If you go, I'll go talk to Mr. Cai

to give you twice the money for supplying water.

The opera is the national opera of Bomo.

The people at the mine love to watch it.

Be careful when you're driving.

Don't break them.

Drive out from the Mopon and take the main road.

Keep going straight and you will see a bridge.

Don't take any shortcuts to save fuel.

The roads not patrolled by the Bomo army have daily fatalities.

Here.

Once you cross the bridge, you're at the Mokok.

Give them this pass when you go through the checkpoint.

Lift it up.

Once there, call this number

and someone will pick you up.

WU HAISHA

Where are you going?

MOKOK, GEM-MARKET

-What do you want? -Rice crackers.

They sell them upstairs.

Hey, it will get cold if you don't eat it.

Let me check.

I bought this piece in Hong Kong, China.

-It's a 1997 Return memorial edition. -Yes.

I'm telling you, you can't find it on the market.

But this one… A Rolex is a Rolex.

It has a set price.

I'm not making it difficult for you.

-Just go a bit higher, man. -It's high enough, bro.

If you don't believe me, I can take you to see for yourself downstairs.

Among all the Gem-Market currency exchange shops,

let's see if anyone will outbid me.

No one.

What's with all this mess?

Make it quick. Just go with the price you mentioned.

And then give me more.

-Twenty million more. -Twenty million?

No way.

It's a memorial edition. It's a limited edition worldwide.

-A Rolex bought in Hong Kong, China. -No way.

I can't do this business. Try the next one. Sorry.

Come on.

You're quite skillful.

If you have something to say, say it nicely.

-Take a seat. -It's a memorial edition.

I have been observing WIN-WIN's two stones for several days now.

Understood.

All I need is this money.

Be straightforward.

This Rolex watch, for you. For free.

For free? I don't believe it.

Do as I say. Go buy those two stones.

Let's form a partnership.

If we win, we split it 50-50.

It's not about splitting it 50-50 or not.

We are not allowed to join the field.

Don't do this to me. Switch to another one.

Alright. I give up.

-I'll sell it to you. -You'll sell it?

You should have said so earlier.

I want to check.

Don't worry. If your watch is genuine, my money won't be fake.

Make sure to zip up.

Let me tell you.

You're going to miss the chance to make a fortune.

Let me tell you. You need to be agile when doing business.

You, fool, can't be a boss.

A message dog just wants to serve the boss.

Then I wish for you to get a big gem soon

and to become a big boss soon.

I know everything.

Waiter.

The money is on the table.

What are you doing?

Don't get me wrong. You said you know everything.

In Chinese?

Yes.

After all, I'm a Dog.

My name is Wang Anquan, the safest to find.

I was born and raised in the mines.

I am the best local Dog at speaking Chinese.

Boss, feel free to ask whatever you want to know.

Dog?

I want to find someone.

This person is currently in the restricted zone.

How much for news from the restricted zone?

Are you kidding?

It's a restricted zone. So the news must have been sealed.

Boss. You can also inquire about local news.

Four thousand for a piece, very cheap.

Four thousand per piece? That's so expensive.

In Bomo. It's only 20 yuan in RMB.

I won't talk nonsense if I don't know.

A message worth 20 yuan? And do I still need to ask you?

-Wang Anquan. -Yes.

RARE STONE

Chinese boss and Chinese characters.

This is Wu Haishan's retail store.

All of this area.

We were just on that second-floor there, right?

Yes, right there.

-Is it 50 meters from there to here? -No.

And you're asking me for 4,000 for this?

It's not expensive.

Not expensive.

-Stop bothering me. -Please.

RARE STONE

RARE STONE

Hello, I'm from To-pan.

I'm here to deliver someone to Mr. Wu Haishan.

Is he here?

He is not here.

What do you want with Wu Haishan?

I'm the driver who's here to deliver people here.

Who are they?

The opera performers.

He's not here?

Mr. Wu.

I think you already knew that Wu Haishan wasn't here.

Don't say that to me.

Don't.

Don't you just want the money?

I'll give you another 4,000. Take me to Wu Haishan.

You know that I know?

Aren't you a dog?

I am not a dog. I am a Dog.

Let's go.

RARE STONE

Mr. Sun is here to pick some stones.

Come on, are we not looking for Wu Haishan?

Let's see what he picks.

These are top-quality goods from Pugan.

Look at the shell and the texture. It's perfect.

It's a life gamble. If he fails, he is done for.

The color is also good. You could totally carve a hole from here.

All my goods are good.

All in good condition. It's really hard to choose.

If it were me, I'd take them all.

-I'll take these two. -Okay.

Ten million Bomo per piece, okay?

You've also inspected it under the lamp.

These two are definitely for sale.

Can this price be the same as the others?

Twenty million for only one piece.

-If you don't have enough money… -Wang Anquan.

You can check out that cabinet.

-I just want these two. -You?

You have no money.

-Let's go. -Check it out.

Then pick one first.

It needs to be sold anyway.

How about this? I'll give you 20 million.

-Okay. -You sell me both pieces.

Listen to me.

If it's an emerald,

I'll give you another 20 million on the spot, okay?

What do you think?

I want it.

-Which one do you want? -Let me choose one.

Go on.

Hurry up.

This one?

Or this one?

-Hurry up. -I want this one.

This one? Are you sure?

-I'm sure. -Okay.

I want this one.

-This one? -Yes.

I trust in fate.

Money.

That's the money you just gave him, right?

Yes.

You take that one. Don't touch this one.

Boss, go cut in my cutting stall.

I had imperial emerald come out at my place the day before yesterday.

I have imported grinding machines.

I can give you a discount.

Mr. Wu isn't here.

Thirsty?

Did you see?

Someone with a red headscarf kept staring at me.

I think I've seen him before.

Someone with red headscarf, red hair, and red hat.

There are plenty of those in the market. I'd recognize them if you say the name.

Anquan.

Let me ask you.

Why is this checkpoint so strict?

You want to find Mr. Wu. Don't you know about such a big deal?

This is the biggest news in the Mokok.

Only giving me 4,000, you are so stingy.

The biggest news, right? It's like I could ask anyone about it.

Wu Haishan's mine

has dug out a top-quality Pigeon Blood Gem.

Pigeon Blood Gem?

You don't even know what a Pigeon Blood Gem is?

The finest among gems is the ruby.

The best of the rubies is the Pigeon Blood Gem.

The finest Pigeon Blood Gem. You know what it means?

Such a large one.

What does this have to do with the strictness of the checkpoint?

Here at the Trilateral Slopes,

basically, all the gem business is monopolized by the Bomo Federation.

It was only in 2003 that they allowed private mining.

Most of them are local bosses.

Foreign bosses have come too. All disrupted by them.

The only one who's stayed all these years is none other than Wu Haishan.

Impressive, right?

So you mean

the federal government has secured the checkpoint

to get Wu Haishan's Pigeon Blood Gem.

That's all?

Ten thousand.

This counts too?

I've answered three questions for you. I gave you a discount, Mr. Shen.

Look at the cars parked over there.

All are the most expensive cars in the Mokok.

All the big shots from the Mokok are here.

Mei.

Is anyone using upstairs now?

-Anquan, go ahead. -Thank you, darling.

Who are the big shots?

The biggest shot is the Deputy Minister of the Mining Department.

-How do you know he's here? -Through my Dog senses.

This…

So Wu Haishan is here?

Right here.

Look. The one wearing glasses.

Are they here for the Pigeon Blood Gem from him?

Let me check the cabinet.

Doesn't seem like it's there.

It's not there.

I really don't understand.

What you dig up here must be handed over to the nation.

Then why contract it out to individuals?

There are limits on weight and size.

Wu Haishan's piece is definitely over the limit.

It's a national treasure-level Pigeon Blood Gem.

There's no problem getting him to hand over to the nation.

You talk as if you've seen it.

Do you know where that Pigeon Blood Gem came from?

It was taken from the belly of a child.

After the surgeon did it, his whole family moved away.

And they haven't come back since, just disappeared.

They were killed.

If there wasn't something shady, they wouldn't make such a big fuss.

Since this is so dangerous,

just hand this stone over to the government.

The government's price is nothing compared to the market's asking price.

You wouldn't give it away if you had it.

Why does Wu Haishan like the puppet so much?

-Was he an opera performer? -What opera?

With that puppet. For the show.

-Isn't this a custom here? -Yes.

When do they usually perform the opera at the mine?

Quite often.

Wait, what are you looking at here?

He really got it?

It's the same over here.

What does this mean? Is this stone good?

Look, two sets of diagonal windows, up, down, left, and right.

They're all bright. When you shine a flashlight from above,

you can't see the edges. It could be a whole emerald.

A whole emerald?

-A whole emerald! -A whole emerald!

-A whole emerald! -A whole emerald!

-A whole emerald! -A whole emerald!

-A whole emerald! -A whole emerald!

Twenty million!

Twenty million!

Seventy million. Give me.

-Sixty million. -Seventy million.

Sixty million.

Eighty million.

I got it.

Nailed it this time. Absolutely nailed it.

Honey.

Honey.

I made it!

I didn't lie to you.

It's a whole emerald.

I'll come back once I've exchanged it for money.

I have been treating you shabbily.

After I've exchanged it for money,

I'll buy you a house, and a car.

As long as you forgive me.

I can't believe you bought my stone with counterfeit money.

-Give me back my stone. -No way.

What do you think?

I didn't.

Pick them up yourself and look. These are all fake.

Open your eyes and see.

Do you see it? He used counterfeit money to buy my stone.

Impossible.

Take all this money back. Give me back the stone.

Give me back the stone.

I understand now.

You saw that I'd get a whole emerald

and tried to swindle me in this way.

-Don't think I don't know. -You cheater.

Don't talk any more nonsense.

Take your counterfeit money back. I picked it up for you.

-Do you understand? -The sign is here.

Open your eyes wide to see it clearly. See it clearly now.

Counterfeit currency is prohibited.

Every store has this sign.

Either you compensate by paying a fine and go to jail,

or you return the stone to me.

You're messing with me!

I will smash the stone. I am not kidding.

Why are you so excited?

Please.

Come in.

Mr. Wu.

-Say it. -The stone stall at the corner.

They got a whole emerald.

But WIN-WIN's boss, Decha, said that person used counterfeit money

and demanded the return of the stone.

Now a crowd is causing a scene at the stall.

Why don't we just call the police?

Anyway, it has nothing to do with us.

What for? The police chief is right here.

Good luck.

I'm not in uniform today.

Mr. Wu,

you are the rotating committee member of the Gem-Market.

So the market is your business. You go handle it.

Let's learn what you mean by mutual benefit and mutual wins.

Then I'll go check it out.

My honored guests,

please excuse me.

Deliberately messing with me?

Aren't you supposed to be supporting a wife?

Don't smash it.

I'm telling you, you picked the wrong person.

-Put it down. -Watch it closely.

Take it easy. Let's talk properly.

Make way, Mr. Wu is coming.

Make way!

If you smash it, you'll have nothing left.

-Put it down. -No way.

-They bullied me. -Stop talking nonsense.

I am the rotating committee member of the Gem-Market.

I can handle it.

We are all Chinese. Trust me.

Mr. Wu, you're the rotating committee member,

and you must be fair.

You can't defend him just because he's Chinese.

Let me tell you, in the Gem-Market,

if you use counterfeit money, your hand will be chopped off.

Right, using counterfeit money is absolutely prohibited.

Isn't that right, everyone? He is bullying us.

-Chop his hand off! -Chop his hand off!

Shut up!

If a death from a fight happens here today,

then no one will come here again.

This is a matter between Decha and the tourist.

What are you guys doing around here?

It's peak tourist season. Look around.

So many customers can't buy anything now.

What are we doing business for here?

For money.

What is money?

Time is money.

That's what I want to say.

Please feel free to go.

Disperse.

Come down.

You've been at the market

for over a month now.

Was all the money you brought used to pay for the lessons?

They said, the best stones are all taken from here,

so I came over to take a look.

I'm a stranger in this place.

It's really impossible for me to cheat.

Where did you get the money to carve the stone?

Did you pawn something?

The Dog. My watch!

The Rolex I bought for my wedding anniversary.

I sold it to a Dog.

He gave me the counterfeit money. It was all from him.

What are you doing?

Sit down. Don't run away.

Alright.

The matter has been cleared up.

He is also a victim of the counterfeit money.

How much was this stone?

Twenty million.

But there's 6.2 million in counterfeit money.

I bought this stone at the standard market price.

I'll go get the money now.

But you had 6.2 million in counterfeit money

when you bought the rough stone.

So I'm going to give 30% straight to Decha.

What's the standard market price?

Four or five?

Can't you count?

Decha.

Are you okay with this?

You call the shots.

After the stone is put into storage later, clean this place up thoroughly.

Mr. Wu.

You didn't ask me when you made the decision.

So much money, if I had to give away 30%,

deducting the principal,

I have not won back the money I brought to the Mokok.

Aren't you the rotating committee member?

That guy called Wang Anquan. He's in your Gem-Market.

What are you doing?

We are all Chinese.

Aren't you going to help me?

I need to clarify

some things.

I've never dealt with stone gambling in so many years in the Mokok.

Essentially,

you guys gambling on stones are no different from the gamblers

in Kyu-lawn's casinos.

If you were not Chinese,

I would never help you today.

Minister.

You can hide it, but don't let me find it.

Or you'll be kicked out of the Mokok.

The Pigeon Blood Gem is really just a rumor.

We welcome you to inspect us at any time.

You won't be able to sell this stone,

or take it out.

Good luck.

Tidy up the office. Then stay at the stall.

-Keep in touch. -Alright.

Mr. Wu.

I'm the driver sent by Mr. Cai in To-pan

to deliver the opera performers to you. My name is Shen Xing.

Sorry.

I was busy at the cutting stall just now and didn't greet you in time.

It's alright. I called you, but you didn't answer.

So I thought to come in and look for you.

There's a lot going on today.

Where are Mr. Ban and the others?

They're in my car.

-Let's go. -Okay.

Drive the car to the entrance of the market.

Good luck.

How about this?

Mr. Ban will take my car. And you'll take him.

-Okay. -Sorry for not greeting you properly.

This way.

Please take the front passenger seat.

COMMON

Go.
