The young master of the xiao family, Lin, is waiting for him in the street. He sees a white-faced man and asks where he got him from. Lin tells him that he has been accompanied by his brother-in-law, who has been protecting the family. He asks the young master if he is interested in learning more about the local markets. Lin replies that he is in "jinling" , which means he is flirting with the white man. Lin is angry and says that he does not care about him anymore. He also says that the white faced man has been beaten by the second master because of his flirting.

He tells his brother that he should follow his plan to buy the shop by himself. Lin asks his brother why he is so unwilling to do this. He wants to teach his brother a lesson.
