Synopsis

Simple and honest Sung Lai-wo (Sunny Chan) is a close relative to the Tong family – a noble clan of Xiguan. The gangster So Fei (Raymond Wong Ho-yin) deliberately flatters him in order to gain profits from the new dock run by Lai-wo; but Lai-wo is merely an idler of the Tong family, and the one at the helm is actually a pre-eminent businesswoman in Guangzhou and the eldest daughter of the Tong family – Tong Nga-wun (Sonija Kwok). She is not only very skillful in taking advantage of various situations, but also bold and resolute at work. However, she sacrifices her youth to take care of her family business, above which she has even spoiled her sister – Tong Nga-man (Lin Xiawei). Nga-man, with a rebellious temperament, deliberately fools around with So Fei so as to irritate Nga-wun. While the Tong family is leading a befuddled life, the valiant mayor of Guangzhou – Wong Kai-yiu (Law Lok-lam), is shot by accident, creating a furore among the city. Lai-wo is then appointed as the mayor of Guangzhou. Seizing the opportunity at the mayoral inauguration ceremony on the fifth day of the first lunar month, forces of evil and people from all circles that have been dormant for a while turn out in full strength to wreak havoc.[1]
