In this chapter, we learn the identity of the man who saved Lin's life. He's called "brother wolf" and we learn that he's from the military. Lin asks his uncle if he has any business with him, and the uncle says that he does. Lin is a veteran who came to China to find work, but he lost all his money on his way to the city. He asks if the uncle has any money. The uncle says he does, and that he lives nearby, so the uncle can call him if he needs anything. Lin tries to remember the man's name, but the man has left him his number. Lin says he doesn't particularly need money right now, so he'll just wait for the uncle at the "dynasty hotel" . Once there, the uncle will say that he is there to meet "someone called brother wolf" , and some men will escort the uncle to the hotel. Lin wants to check out the hotel, and he asks one of Brother Wolf's men to come with him.
