The Good Earth Page #5

You have food! We're starving!

You have food! Food!

I have nothing!

I dig for roots, for my children

You have food hidden! Food and silver!

Food? Find it!

He's got it he's got it!

Wong Loong has food!

I told you, he has food!

But... it's earth!

It takes hunger, and it's warm

Ching! Hunger makes man mad!

Come come! You're little man now!

You won't cry!

Look! Your sister doesn't cry!

Little one she never cries now

What is it? Why?

If you could have a little food

you'd have the strength

to bring the child

I'll find it.

Tomorrow I...

When have you had food?

There's a thing in me that hurts,

and not hunger, that a man has no words

No words, but I know!

Oh Lang, the earth has forgotten us!

The earth... I hate it! I'll sell it!

No! For a constant length! No!

No not the land! Not the land!

We're ready nephew

Are you safe? Yes, safe

Huh! Another mouth to feed.

My poor man!

For the sake of your children,

we'll give you

a better price for your land

than you can get

anywhere else in these times

We'll give you 12 pieces of silver

What? 12 pieces?

For all my land?

Huh! I paid a 100 times that much!

But who was starving then?

Please! Please!

And well you know I must sell

No! Not the land!

We'll not sell the land

We'll keep it, we'll go south

And when we return

we'll still have the land

But I've arranged it!

I brought these men here,

you must sell!

Is it your land?

Did you buy it bit by bit?

The land is our life

and it's better to go south,

or die walking, than to give it to you,

for nothing!

What a pity! What a pity!

How can you walk anywhere?

With the child?

The child is dead! Dead?

But I heard it cry?

The child is dead!

What do you say father?

Shall we ride in this fire wagon?

It ain't safe for your old back

He said it crawls on these iron poles!

Grandpa says it's a god of fire!

These wagons chained together

Do it again find a thing?

We sit in it while it walks off!

With these mats we can build a home

Well then get to work!

Get to work all of you!

You'll look at me and listen!

Take the bowel in your right hand so

and hold it out to everybody that passes

and cry out to them:"

A heart good sir! A heart good lady!

A good deed and you shall prosper!

The small cash, a coin you throw away!

Feed us starving child!"

Have a kind heart!

A good deed that bring you fortune!

The small cash the coin you throw away

give for the child died!

Have a kind heard!

A good deed to bring you fortune!

The small cash feed the starving child!

Feed the good fortune!

Bring you a good heart!

Small cash for starving!

Poor little child!

Feed the good fortune!

Bring you a good heart!

Small cash for starving!
