As the eldest son in the family, KEI has to earn the living for the whole family after his father's death. Ile falls in love with RYAN, a girl his mother introduces to him and they get married soon. In a neat coincidence, he runs into LIN, a son from wealthy family, and they soon become very good friends. KEI makes up his mind to earn a better living in Hong Kong, and then leaves Lama Island. LIN suggests him to invest in taxi business and very soon, KEI becomes the owner of five taxis. His success is a result of his ambition and assiduity.

KEI's success in taxi business makes him better off and he brings for his family a new house and also supports his brother, YIU, to study abroad. Later, he decides to invest into real estate, and sells all his taxis but his inexperience and ignorant speculation bring him to poverty again. On great depression, LIN and KEI go to Macau where they make friends with KOO. KOO is a fickle-mooded person and getting along with him is difficult. His cousin MAY adore him very much but is always embarrassed by his indifference.
