Set in the early Republic era, the Jiangbei con artist Qu Xiaohai (Zeng Jiang) has been dominating the underworld for years but is about to retire. Unexpectedly, he meets the warlord's widow Ye Ling (Yu An An) on a train, stirring within him a desire for both wealth and beauty. A minor con artist becomes a hero (Wen Zhao Lun) also captivated by Ye Ling's beauty; both wish to share the spoils. Upon arriving in Shanghai, Qu and Cheng manipulate circumstances to befriend Ling, biding their time to scam her. However, they discover that the governor Song Renjie has ulterior motives toward Ling, and with his malicious wife Yao Juan (Liang Shun Yan) nearby, they hesitate to act, as financial power lies in Jie's hands, leaving Ling powerless.

Weighing the pros and cons, Qu decides to pause their conflict and collaborate to drive Jiang Peng and Tao Hong away.
