It's 1801 and a woman working in a floating brothel in Guangdong province marries a pirate. She becomes known as Cheng Yi Sao (which basically means Cheng Yi's Wife). But history doesn't just remember her as a woman who married a pirate. Instead, she is remembered as one of history's most successful pirates herself. And this is her story.
