Roadside Got Ghost

Cai, a cunning operator who runs a small-time scheme with his two accomplices Fu and Shou, returns home after a successful con where they posed as a religious priest. Richard Low plays Cai. Hunger drives the trio to improvise: late at night they nab oranges from roadside offerings meant for the Hungry Ghost Festival, and Cai grumbles that the fruit is tasteless. A phone call soon after promises Cai a first-class return ticket to the United States from a lucky draw, which he dismisses with a sharp rebuke.
