"First year of the revived cultivating ceremony by His Majesty the King." "Rice seeds from the royal palace experimental plantation were sown." "...for ploughing ceremony at the royal field."

Blues, Blue Day, Love at Sundown, Magic Beams," "Candlelight Blues, Near Dawn, and Smiles - as a part of the film." "Has it rained?" "There was some." "It's been unusually hot this last couple of days." "Come on, let's share it." "Come on, let's share it." "Come on, let's share it." "What's this?" "Have you finished what you took just now?" "It is not without a collateral." "I've got this ring." "Fifty." "What?" "It's half a Tical in gold." " Fifty." " Eighty." "Sixty." "Seventy bahts, madam." "Sixty." "If you don't repay, I will keep it." "If there is anyone else, come quickly." "I've got something good to share." "His Majesty's rice, grown in the palace." "It was sown at the royal field just this year." "I struggled for it at the ploughing ceremony and got only this much." "You kindly gave me a ride." "I'll give you some." "Just one?" "What's going on?" "I hear you went to Bangkok, Nankam." "What's that?" " Royal rice!" "He's got lots of it." " Not much." "Royal rice?" "Let me see it." "Planted by His Majesty in the palace." "Give me a couple." "I'll keep them for worship." "I don't have much, madam." "Please, I want them for blessings." "I'll even buy them." "Give her some." "She's no stranger." "That's right." "We're neighbors." "Don't tell anyone." "Let me grow them first and then I will have plenty to give to anyone." "Thanks." "If you ever need anything, please visit my store." "I have all kinds of food and drugs." " Come if you need anything." " OK." "I don't need anything right now." " Thank you very much." " OK." "Daddy's here." "Dad!" "Have you bought some toys?" "What have you bought?" " Plenty." " Sweets?" "Yes." "I thought Bangkok had captured you for good." "How was it?" "Was it fun?" "It's like heaven." "It's colorful." "I bought you some clothes." "For your kid brother, Neung, a toy for kid." "It's beautiful." "Look here, Thip." "There is no need for that." "You shouldn't waste your money." "You looked after my kids for days." "No problem!" "We are neighbors." "It's nothing." "This trip I got something good to share." "Royal rice, grown in the palace." "I scrambled for it at the royal field and got this much." "Here, plant it in the field for good blessings." "Here's another one." "And one more." "Thanks." "It is the best." "Thank you." "It's OK." "We're neighbors." "Let's go home, kids." "You said you bought water pistols." "I've got something for everyone." "What about my dolls?" "Don't worry." "I didn't forget." "I'll give everything out after you are all fed and cleaned up." "Did you buy comic books?" "Yes." "I bought several, and other books too." "Learn a lot when you read them." "Plenty of pictures." " Aren't they good?" " Yes." "Where are the water pistols?" "Be patient." "Soon." "I went to Bangkok because I knew that his Majesty would sow rice in the royal field." "I want it to grow in our field too." "His Majesty's blessing will give us plenty of rice." "Thousands of people were at the royal field." "I scrambled and got a little rice." "Here it is." "That's it all there is, but every grain is priceless." "I will plant them separately." "When they are grown, they will be parent stock." "Soon, all our rice fields will only have royal rice." "Early tomorrow morning, I will plant them in the field." "Who will go with me?" "We can all go." "OK." "Keep them for now, up high on that shelf." "Go." "I think it's going to rain." "Dark clouds and wind are coming over there." "Let's get everything inside." "Quick collect your things, a storm is coming." " Dad!" " Art..." " Dad!" " Bring me that piece of cloth." "Dad." "Watch your brother." "Go." "Watch out." "Watch out, kids." "It hurts." "Don't follow me." "Hail, hail storm!" "Let's get out." "Watch out." " Dad!" " Dad!" "Brother." "How are you?" "Thip is getting medicine from madam's store." "She went this morning and she'll be back soon." "How bad is it?" " What about the rice?" " What rice?" "The royal rice that I got from Bangkok." "It was windy." "Storm and hail must have blown it miles away." "Get over it." " Where is the patient?" " He is inside." "How bad is it?" "Let me look at you." "What happened to you?" "I'm not too bad." "Please tend to my son's wound first." "It's OK now." "Take the medicine." "Clean the wound and apply it daily." "It will heal in a few days." "As for the houses, the authorities will help repair them." "This storm has damaged vast areas." " Many districts are in trouble." " Yes, sir." "I'll be off." "Good luck." "Sir, I wish you good luck." "Thanks, kid." "Good luck to you too." "Which grade are you in?" "He has finished primary school." " Any further studies?" " No, sir." " Why not?" " Exactly." "What about you, do you want further study?" "I do, sir." "Maybe I can help find a scholarship for you." "If you really want to study, I will help." "Sir, thank you." "I will check on our house first and will be back to help after I clean up." "Let's go, Nueng." "Dad!" "I found the royal rice." "Dad!" "I found the royal rice." "Written and directed by Bundit Rittakol" "More than ten years later." "Why just got here, Kaew?" "Don't know where Sam-Arng is." "I have to do his chore." " Quickly, I will wait." " OK." "Would you like to go out with me tomorrow?" "There is a movie at the temple." "I don't like movies." "How about concerts?" "I don't like concerts." "Kaew..." " Kaew, is your father home?" " Yes." "Remind him that his mortgage on the farm is due, and I need the money." "Dad said he would like to extend it." "No!" "I need the money." " Let him extend it a while, mom." " Don't interfere." "There was a drought these past years." "Rice farming was a loss." "Dad has no money." "Then, I can help sell the farm." "Whatever I get, I'll deduct the debts and return the rest without commission." "But, if that doesn't cover it, then you will have to find the balance." "That is correct." "Am I right?" "I give you seven days." "I scrambled for them, down on my knees for a few grains." "Cultivated them for over ten years." "Now, our fields only grow royal rice." "I don't want to see them confiscated or sold." "Why not, dad?" "With this drought, why would you keep the farm?" "If it is sold, then what are we to do?" "If not farming, what can we do?" "We can't." "What nonsense." "That's because you're stupid." "How long has dad been farming?" "What has dad got to show for it?" "We don't know if there is enough water this year." "Potable water has to be bought, and there is no rain." "Only some buffalo water holes." "We should have moved on long ago." "Sell the farm, and use what is left to live in the city." "This is our homeland, Sam-Arng." "Not important." "Many have left home to live in the city." "We can take any kind of work." "Dad farms and what do we get." "He gets rice to feed you." "We are not going anywhere." "No one can take our farm, our land or our home." "But, you owe her money, and expropriate, she will." "There is hardly any money for food, with what money can you pay?" "Frankly, a city beggar earns more than your farm." "How can you say that to dad?" "Believe me, just sell whatever." "He is crazy." "Please don't mind him, dad." "He's young." "No, I don't mind." "Sell the buffaloes!" "Sell the land and the beasts." "They can make meatballs." "Noodles and meatballs are nice." "No need for rice." "Don't do it, dad." "Don't sell the buffaloes." "I nurtured them from very young." "Please, don't sell them." "Dad, don't sell them to be slaughtered." "Don't worry." "They will be sold to work." "You know it's necessary." "I won't sell them if it isn't." "Let's tie them here." "Wait for me." "I am selling my buffaloes." "Wait a minute." "We will take care of it." "Thanks." "Selling buffalo, are you, Saokam?" "I am told you are here to sell the buffalo." "Yes." "No water." "No farming." "No money." "They have to go for now." "Yes, me too." "I have just sold mine." "I met a master." "What master?" "Water." "He's a water seer." "Wherever there is underground water, he sees it." "He is well recommended." "That's good." "Call others to join and dig our own well." "So, we don't need to buy water from madam Buaruen." "It hurts having to buy it from her." "OK?" "Is the master for real?" " Is it expensive?" " No, it is not." "His magical visions are the talk of the town." "In that case, I am in." "After the sale, I will return the money to madam, and then I will ask others to join the dig." "Sit down." "There's no rush, do sit down." "I sold my buffaloes to return your money." "No, no rush." "Please, sit down." "You are good, better than others, and responsible." "You pay back your debt when due." "Just let me know when you need it again." "I'll be happy to lend you." "Don't forget." "If I have it, I will lend it." "I won't if I don't have it." "Now, it is good that you're paying me back." "How is your boy, the King's scholarship student?" "Has he graduated from overseas?" "Maybe soon, madam." "Good." "Even though my buffalo is sold, I still need to beg you to be merciful." "No problem." "I am merciful." "Money from the buffaloes is not enough to pay you in full." "It covers only twelve thousand bahts." "What's this!" "It is a thirty-five thousand bahts debt!" "You only paid back twelve thousand." "Not possible." "I need the money this time." "Have mercy, madam." "After our rice is sold, the rest will be paid back this year." "What?" "After rice is sold?" "You haven't planted any yet." "No water." "No rain." "How can you grow rice?" "It is real trouble, madam." "Please, help us." "Not OK!" "If you can't pay up, then I will seize your farm." "My leniency had led too much abuse." "When you asked me for the money, you promised to pay on this day." "I was too soft." "I thought an old man wouldn't break his promise." "You are no different from the rest." "Be warned!" "If you don't pay in full, I will seize your farm." "Do it, dad." "Let her expropriate it." "No use talking to her." " Just watch me!" "I will burn it all." " Sam-Arng!" " Wait!" "What are you going to do?" " Don't bother me!" " Don't do anything crazy!" " Look!" "Dad sold the buffaloes for her." "No use talking to her." "I don't want dad to hold on to the farm." "But, if she seizes the farm, then you just watch me." "I am not afraid of her!" "Don't do anything crazy!" "If you don't help, then I have no choice." "I will take back this money." "You can expropriate the farm." "It's OK." "If I don't expropriate the farm, we will need to redo a contract." "There will be more interest." "Nowadays, money is harder to find." "It is harder than before." "Do you understand?" "If you agree to increase interest, I will extend the time." "After the harvest, pay me back in full." "If not, I'll expropriate the farm for sure." "Do you agree?" "Why don't we dig on the other side, where Sam-Arng likes to hang around?" "There should be more water there." "That water is polluted." "It can't be used." "Let's help." "Hurry up." "Have we reached water yet?" "Have you found water?" "Let him see." "Rocks are everywhere." "I can't dig anymore." "I want to buy some water." "Not for sale!" "I hear you found a seer to find a new well, why must you buy water then?" "Sell it, mom." "I will sell it to her." "Don't do it, Prasit." "Not for sale." "But, they don't have water to use." "Are you crazy?" "Don't interfere." "Go!" "Oh, mom!" "Go now!" "Go!" "Go tell your dad and his friends, if they want to be independent, to rebel to stop buying my water, then they don't buy anything here." "Not anything." "No water, nothing." "Go!" "Where are you going with all these things?" "Hill side." "Take it easy." "Do I have to pay you to be careful?" "No problem." "Do we leave now?" "We leave when it is full." "Nueng!" "Kam-nueng!" "Is it you?" "Kam-nueng!" "Art!" "How lucky!" "Meeting you before getting home." "You are the first." "How is our overseas student?" "How many diplomas did you get?" "I hear you got an honor's degree." "Nothing like that, second." "It is a second-class honors." "It is different over there." "It was easier to study." "There was no distraction." "I didn't know anyone so I studied in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening." "And I even slept on the textbooks at night, just to get some brain osmosis absorption." "You still talk too much just like old times." "And you are still nodding like before." "How about you?" "So, so." "What can you expect from a government job?" " My education is much less than yours." " What is it like then?" "Not much." "I get to transfer each year." "Here and there." " Erm..." " This time, it is back here." "No matter how many transfers, I am still a sergeant." "I just don't have the know-how." "Isn't there any promotion?" "Yes, a fortune teller said possibly one this year." "Good." "After all the years, he said this would be booming year." "Has there been a boom then?" "Yes, the first boom came over from the Khmer side, it landed at our base." "Followed by another boom, I narrowly escaped into a ditch." "Good." "It is really funny." "Many were injured and died." "No, it is not funny." "How much longer is this talk?" "How often do you get to go home?" "Wonder what is it like back home?" "There has been drought these past years." "Rice farming has been bad." "People are in debt everywhere." " My father too?" " I think so." "They should try growing other things." "Some things are pricier than rice." "It is the drought." "Nothing can grow there." "Believe me." "What?" "In other countries, even in the desert, people can still farm." "You studied this." "Find a way to help us." "Take it." "Take what you need." "Take it." "What's this?" "Stop this at once!" "Prasit!" "You stop this now!" "This is not a public well." "How did you get in here?" "Get out!" "All get out!" "We are here to buy water." "Haven't I told that it is not for sale?" " You can't do that." " It is mine." "I won't sell." "If you won't sell it, we will take it for free." "This is robbery." "This country has law and order." "I can choose to sell or not to sell whatever is mine." "People have no water to use." "The village has only this well." " Not sharing." "This is a bully." " Underground water belongs to everyone." "Take it." "Let's take it." "Mom, don't." "Come quick." "Water is free for anyone who helps." " Take it." " Take it." "Let's take it." "Get out!" "All get out!" " Get out now!" " Don't give in to them." "Take it." "Mom." " Get out!" " Wait, wait for now." "We don't have to be afraid." " Hey!" " Kaew, sorry." "I didn't see you." "Nuts!" "Stop!" "Water from this well is mine." "I have a right to it." "Mark my words, whoever mortgaged or borrowed from me... they had better pay me back when due or I will expropriate them." "They can all get lost." "Cool it, mom." "Don't interfere." "Shut up!" "Why don't you appeal for royal artificial rain?" "Without rain to farm and having to buy water, surely we can get his Majesty's help." "Our village is too small and remote." "Dad!" "No matter how small or remote a village is if there is trouble, His Majesty has always helped." "Now that I have graduated," "I will be stationed at the royal project on the hill." "Don't worry." "I will quickly pursue this matter." "Hello." "Anyone here?" "I am delivering water to you." "I am delivering water, home delivery." "I thought madam said not for sale." "Selling, yes." "She has no problem." "She doesn't mind because she doesn't know." "You'd better take it back." "Trouble, when she finds out." "Don't worry." "I will take the responsibility." "No potable water is not a small matter." "Just consider this as helping each other." "I waste my effort if you don't take the water." "Take it, dad." "We are short of water." "Take it, Kaew." "Where is the container." "I will deliver it." "Let's do it." "Don't worry." "About the royal rain, I'll take care of it." "I promise you." "You will get all the water you need this year for farming." "This will not be just ordinary water." "It represents the spirit of His Majesty." "Be attentive in your work." "Serve His Majesty well." "Don't be picky." "Don't be lazy." "His Majesty has given you high education." "You have to do much for him." "It is both my dream and intention to do that." " Please wrap this up." " Yes, sir." "Kaew, please wait here." "I have to order something there." "Just one more thing." "Here it is." " Thirty bahts." " Thank you." "What is the hush, Nueng?" "What hush?" "Oh, that." "It's nothing." "I see happy people so I just hush up in support." "When will you talk sensibly?" "Even since we were kids, you haven't changed." "I always have bad habit, my words are not nice, my intelligence and status are even worse." "But, I've got just one good thing, my good-looks." "I can't help it." "But, it is not like someone who has everything." "Kaew..." "I am off." "Be happy." "Get lost." "What happened to the royal rain?" "It has been weeks." "It is hot." "Stop complaining." "Am is nobody." "Who would grant his request?" "Don't dishearten him." "I suggest to move and everyone disagrees, so stupid with this farm thing." "Others have money." "Lots of it." "Our father has debt, lots." "I'm tired." "What are you doing?" "Out with Prasit again?" "What's wrong?" "I don't like him." "I don't like both him and his mother." " Are you crazy?" " They look down on us." "They look down on dad too." "They say one thing and do another," " especially his mother." " You talk too much." "The water you're drinking comes from Prasit." "Did you know that?" "I don't need to drink it." "Crazy." "This one is 3,500." "That one is 3,000." "Both I sell cheaply, 7,300, OK?" " Is that right?" " Right." "That's not right." "3,000 and 3,500 make only 6,500." "Only 6,500," " really?" " Really." "This is cheating." "What cheating?" "7,300 for two is correct." "Get lost if you won't buy." "I won't buy them." "Don't buy then." "Others are more expensive." "Damn!" "Damn, no sale." "Thanks for saving me from the cheat." "No problem." "Where are you from and what are you doing here?" "I live at the hill side." "Home is boring so I am just looking for fun." "Would you like to visit our home?" "I would." "Is it far?" "Not far, just over 3 hills." "Coming?" "This is my father." "He is the village chief." "Hello" "He asks if your nodding means you understand what was said?" "No." "Wait here a moment." "I have to talk to Chator." "You wait here." "Sam-Arng, what are you looking at?" "She is beautiful." "Which one?" "The one with the sack, walking away from the group." "That's Naja, sister of the deputy chief." " Do you like her?" " I think so." "Me too." " I have to go with Chator." " Where to?" "Far away, maybe to Shan state in Myanmar." "Sorry I cannot take you." "But, you are welcome to stay on the hill." "Wait, Chaha." "Can I come too?" " No." " Why not?" "We're friends, aren't we?" "The path is arduous." "I am OK." "I am not afraid of difficulties." "You can come." "Is his sister coming to?" "Yes, she goes wherever her brother goes." "She is like a boy." "Dad!" "Royal rain is here." "A plane to make rain, there it is." "Don't worry, dad." "I am going." "I am off, Kampan." "Right, where is Sam-Arng?" "Where is Sam-Arng?" "We had an argument this morning." "I don't know where he is." "Arng!" "Arng!" "Have you seen Sam-Arng?" "No, I haven't." "Where is he?" "He may be wandering." "He may go to the city." "He talks of going to work in the city." " Delicious?" " It is delicious." " What is this?" " Dog meat." "Dad." "Dad." "It is going to rain." "Dad." "It is going to rain." "Art, it is going to rain." "Where is dad?" "It is about to rain." "Dad." "Dad, aren't you hungry?" "Have something first." "It is windy." "It is windy." "The wind takes away the rain." "Let's go home." "The sun is about to set." "Main problem is wind direction." "It is changing." "No certainty." "We cannot map out the exact area." "Look over there." "Here it comes again." "The rain is here." "Over there, it is raining." "Do you see?" "It is raining." "It is raining." "The reason I had you come here is because I want you to pack and leave." "I will expropriate the house, land and farm." " We are beginning to farm." " If you evict us, then we are finished." "Sorry, your mortgage has never been paid back, neither the interest nor the loan." "So, I will seize it." "Please, have mercy." "We are poor." "Without rain or rice, we have nothing." "No money to get by." "We didn't try to stay away." "But, we really have no money." "Everybody says that." "Now there is water." "When our rice is sold, we can pay you back." "No." "We are neighbors." "You know we live here." "We have never been anywhere else." "Have mercy on us." "No mercy." "We have known each other for years." "Eviction is not called for." "Because I know someone, I can't evict him?" "Then how am I to do business." "Frankly speaking, I have already decided." "Your farm will be leased out." "There may be no one living in your house, but you have to move out anyway." "Just to set an example, so nobody will prolong paying me back." "You are cruel." "Go!" "Get out of my house!" "Now!" "If you will not move out, my men will deal with you." "Go!" "You people have never realized how much I have helped." "Yes, I am cruel." "But, that is my money, not yours." "Mom." "Mom." "I don't want to go." "I don't want to go too, but we must." "Go help your dad pack." "Kampan." "Kampan." "I have to go." "The house and farm have been seized by madam." "Where?" "Where will you go?" "I don't know yet." "All I know is here." "I have lived here since birth." "I know each grain of sand, each piece of dirt, grass and trees, and the farm I care." "Do we love one another?" "Of course." "Go to my house." "Don't go elsewhere." "It rains this year." "There is water." "Help one another." "Make an extra effort." "Sell the rice till there is enough to buy back this house and land." "Let's live together, Thip and Nueng too." "There are already many people." "It is hardly enough as it is." "When there is more, don't we live together?" "Now, there is less, why can't we live together too?" "Let's go, Kampan." " Brother." " I said go, then go." "Sa-Art, Kaew." "Let's help take these things." "Let's go, Kamnoi." "Let's go, Thip." "Let's go, Kampan." "You must understand, Kaew." "I have nothing to do with my mother." "Everyone knows what she is like." "She won't listen." "No matter what I say." "I pity Kamnoi." "What a pity." "Was it pity for Kamnoi or Kam-Nueng?" "Don't say that." "I don't like it." "I was just joking." "You shouldn't joke like that." "Nueng, he is Kampan's brother." "He is like a cousin." "There is nothing more." "I said I was joking." "Can't you talk to your mother about Kampan's home?" "There is no use talking to her." "She's not like anybody." "You know that." "Yes, but I don't like it." "Now, people know about us, dad and Kampan included." "Really, it is up to mom and her alone." "Prasit said about your house that he can't help because the decision is made by his mother." "Did someone ask for his sympathy?" "No." "I just want to tell you that Prasit is not involved." "What are you laughing at?" "Nuts." "An old adage says nothing stops a woman from getting her man." "What is that?" "What do you mean by that?" "Nothing." " Who you mean?" " Nobody." " Who is getting her man?" " No one." "Do you mean me?" "Not so... not so wrong." "Damn it." "Among all men in the world, your face stinks the most." "Ever since we were kids," "I have never liked your face, not one bit especially when living under the same roof." "Same here." "I won't stick my stinking face around here for long." "By all means." "Nueng, when will you be back?" "It will be for quite sometime." "You don't have to worry." "I am going, Kamnoi." "I will write you stories." "I will mail you some toys." " Good luck." " Thanks." "I am going." "Uncle," "I would like you to come back soon." "Certainly, I will be back soon." "I will take you to stay in our house." "Or, you can come to stay with me." "Don't be naughty." "Pay attention and study well." "I am off." "Beginning this year, we will stop planting opium, and we will farm His Majesty's plants instead." "Do you agree?" "The chief will discuss it with the villagers." "Don't worry." "Everyone loves His Majesty." "Good." "I will be back in a couple of days." "Bye." "Go on." "I met him on the hill, among the opium dealers." "Opium?" "Here's my money." "I give it to you." "Use it for the house." "It is for everyone." "Isn't cash scarce around here?" "Keep your filthy money, no one wants it." " What filthy?" " That kind of filth." "The source of your money hurts dad's feelings." "Enough!" "The reason I went is to help dad and the house." " If you can stay calm, so why don't you?" " So what?" "Stop!" "Silence!" "Everyone stops it!" "This ends now!" "It must never happen again." "Take it, Sam-Arng." "Your money, I don't want it." "It is sin money." "You shouldn't keep it either." "Give it away." "Do whatever you like with it." "From today on, you must end your affairs with the hill people." "Come back for more when you have finished." "Do it slowly." "Watch out, Kamnoi." " The school uniform is expensive." " Slowly, son." "Be careful." "Don't run." "It's slippery." "Why do the Kampan's have to live in our house?" "Dad asked them." "Why had you got to ask them?" "They have been friends long before you were born." "Kampan was in trouble." "Dad had to help out." "Isn't dad in trouble?" "Don't bring those dealers' selfishness here." "Don't talk about opium." "Don't ever talk to me about opium." "You just have to rub it in all the time." "Arng..." "Naja..." "I am so glad you come." "I am really glad." "I come to tell you I am moving elsewhere." "Where are you going?" "Why do you have to move?" "Chator and the chief had an argument." " Chaha's father?" " Yes." "They want to stop planting opium." "Chator asked us to move to another area." "I had to go too." "Where to?" "Myanmar's border." "Naja, do you wish to stay here?" "Stay with us in my father's house." "I can't." "Wait, wait for me." "Do you want to learn to ride?" " Really?" " Yes." "Is it hard?" " No." "It is easy." " OK." "It is a nice breeze." "When the rice is sold, whatever is left after I pay madam," "I will share it with you." "We slowly save up for about three years." "There should be enough to buy back your home." "You need not share it." "Pay all of it back to madam this year." "We can think about that next year." "I paid her back twelve thousand already." "The remaining, despite higher interests, shouldn't be that much." "I heard that this year's price fetches 1,900 per cart of rice." "Our rice comes to over 20 carts." "There will be plenty of money left." "Not to worry." "Dad, the chosen rice for stock, should I take it upstairs?" "Yes, take it up." "OK, go." "Royal rice, I am proud of cultivating this rice for over ten years." "I will go to madam tomorrow." "I will see the balance of my debt." "I might even mention about buying your land." "Keep that rice high." "37,400." "But after today, it will increase accordingly." "What's this?" "The loan was 35,000." "I sold my buffalo to pay you 12,000." "Why is it now at 37,400, more than the original loan?" "Don't I have to take interest?" "How many months has it been?" "The new contract is 10% and accumulated too, not 5%." "Let me tell you, when it is due and if you don't pay me back," "I'll surely seize your farm." "What?" "Am I fed on dirt and sand?" "I need interest." "Don't pretend to be stupid." "Never." "Where would you fetch 1,900 per cart?" "You better check around." "It is only 1,700 per cart now." "That is the best price." "Never mind if you don't want to sell." "Some even paid for transportation to the big mill and only get 1,700." "I come here and offer 1,700 just like everyone else." "What more could you want?" "What is it going to be?" "Sell it or not?" "If not, then I am going." "Sell it." "Don't worry about having to share it with me." "Pay back the debt to madam." "Pay it all first." "What's it going to be?" "Please, sell it." "If more rice is out, the price will drop further." "It may be worse." "Sell." "OK." "Not wholeheartedly?" "My dad said he would sell." "What more do you want?" "OK." "Let's do it." "Hurry up." "Quick." "Quick." "Dad." "Dad, at 1,700 per cart, is enough to pay the debt?" "I don't know." "How much do we owe her?" "It was 37,400 the other day." "I don't know what it is today." "Count them." "1" "Leave it there" "Help each other carry that down" "Hurry up." "I heard you sold your rice." "I just stopped by." "I will keep the contract and your deeds with the buyer." "If the rice pays the debt, then you get your deeds back." "He will bring the money back to me." "But if not, you can get lost." "I will surely seize your farm and your house." "It is finished." " Is it finished?" " Finish" "How much?" "Let me see." "Not enough." "There must be 22 carts to meet the debt." "This is not quite 22 carts." "Madam said there must be enough for 37,000 or more, but this isn't enough." "Not quite 22 carts." "What do you say?" "Wait." "Dad." "Hey!" "Actually, it is still not enough." "But, never mind, I will give you that." "Here is your contract, and the deeds." "Let's go." "Keep it." "It is still ours." "Never mind." "We can begin again." "We used to have just a few grains." "Dad." "Here is my salary." "I share it with you." "I live on the hill." "I don't use much." "I have to go now." "I have to work early tomorrow." "I am going." "I will live elsewhere." "Find something else to do." "Price of rice is low." "I can't take it anymore." "A co-operative should be set up to coordinate our efforts." "All related business in a village, financial support, equipment and agricultural tools all of them come under a co-operative." "We would be better off." "Another thing is working with hill tribe people." "We are ready to help." "Don't worry." "Help in finding alternative crops to rice." "What are you doing?" "Nothing." "What is nothing?" "Why did you hit it?" "Where are all the people?" "Where is Kampan?" "Not here." "He went with dad." "Thip and Kamnoi went to pick vegetables." "Come on up to the house." "No." "I've just stopped by to leave a message and I will be off." "What message?" "I saw Sam-Arng with the opium dealers." "We've been ordered to take drastic measures." "I can't just segregate him out." "It would tip them off." "I came by to say this in case Arn can get him out." "He is in contract with the hill tribe people." "Arn is with dad." "Don't let anyone hurt Sam-Arng." "I have my duty." "Frankly speaking, this message in itself is not proper practice." "I see Sam-Arng as a brother." "This is the best I can help." "I am going." "Nueng!" "Nueng!" "You must help Sam-Arng." "I will quickly tell Arn." "But, you must not let anyone hurts Sam-Arng." "Arn went with Art to see the hill tribe's chief." "I hope they find a guide to get Sam-Arng out." "Don't be anxious." "Nueng can help Sam-Arng." "Let it be." "Let it be." "Naja." "Naja, go quick." "Don't run." "Don't shoot." "Don't." "Capture them all." "Go get them." "How are you, Chai?" "Do you wish to kill your friend?" "Did you bump into him?" "Or, are you one of them?" "Soldiers, come help quickly." "I have to report this to the general." "Whatever the investigating committee says, I don't care." "I am through with you." "How is Nueng?" "He's been shot." "Moreover, he has been charged for conspiracy." "He knocked his friend's gun." "When we got there, he had been sent to hospital." "Arn is checking the hospital." "Nueng helped Sam-Arng." "It must be because of him." "Him." "He troubles everyone." "Nueng." "I was the one who asked Nueng." "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Nueng." "I am sorry, dad." "Uncle Kampan, I am sorry." "I am sorry." "Never mind." "Never mind." "Let's go, son." "Is it better, Narong?" "Is it better?" "It is better." "Does it still hurt?" "Is it better?" "Is it better?" "There was a letter at the base, but I didn't bring it." "Get well soon." "Rest plenty." "We will come back in the evening." "Nueng, how are you?" " Does it hurt much?" " Not much." "You need not get up, just lie down." "I was here yesterday, but they were taking your bullets out so I went home." "It was nothing." "Is Sam-Arng back home?" "He is back." "Good." "It is just him causing all the troubles." "Forget it, he is still a kid." "The co-ops have solved many problems, financial debts, land issues." "If we are all united and really determined, all the problems will be gone." "Recently, some hill tribes have become involved and have joined our co-ops." "Nueng." "I thought you were coming back next week." "The committee that investigated me finished sooner." "So, I come back." "What did they say?" "They discharged me from duty." "Is dad home?" "Yes." "Nueng is here." "I passed by the town." "So, I stopped to pick him up." " Have you fully recovered?" " Good." "Dad, he was discharged." "What?" "Discharged?" "I thought there would be some punishment, but not a discharge." "Forget it." "After all, it is nothing." "I am sorry." "It was my fault." "OK, it wasn't that important." "The salary sucks." "Titles and ranks have no meaning." "Actually, they are meaningful." "It is OK." "Forget it." "We are men." "What has passed is past." "Begin again." "Believe me." "There is nothing more important than a new beginning." "Especially, for wandering men like the two of us, it is time to stay home." "Wait." "Please, help look after it." "The buyer will come in a couple of days." "Give him the keys." "Not to worry." "Mom, let's go." "My boss told me to appeal to be reinstated." "They would reconsider it." "It's good then." "But, I would rather do farming with you." "That is good too." "So, do you want me to go or to stay?" "Haven't you noticed that everything is going well vegetables, beans and mushrooms are booming." "Price are good too."
