[comprehensive] die with peace

The ship moved slowly on the sea with a whimpering sound. After many days of driving, the passengers who had been enjoying the scenery on the sea had long lost interest and stayed in the cabin one by one to pass the boring time.

Mu Gui stood on the deck and looked into the distance, with a woman in a short blue cheongsam standing beside her.

It was too windy on the deck, and I was tired of looking at the sea scenery, but Mu Gui really didn't want to go back to the cabin, there were too many people, it was smoky, and it was too noisy.

His current identity is Liu Tao, the head of the Shanghai Youth Gang—don’t ask him why he is the head of the Qing Gang instead of Du Yong. When Liu Tao left Shanghai, Du Yong was not yet born. Later, he could almost use Du Yuesheng to represent the Qing Gang Du Yong naturally does not exist.

At this time they were on the steamer bound for Great Britain.

It was the end of the nineteenth century, and the industrial revolution in the West was booming. Mu Gui originally thought that he was going to be an ordinary person in this era, but the world told him that he was thinking too much.

This is not a normal human world, not to mention the east, but the west where the story takes place. There are gods of death, demons, and angels. As for the Shanghai where Liu Tao stayed, as an ordinary person, Liu Tao has never seen those magical existences.

As the leader of the Green Gang, Liu Tao left the East for the UK just to spread his business to the UK. As for what business to do... of course it was the opium that the UK used to destroy China. The Green Gang was originally a gangster, earning money from the Chinese I still have scruples about making money from these British guys, but there is no pressure at all, it's just reciprocity.

Europeans used opium to destroy the long-coveted ancient oriental country, so the control over opium is naturally strict, which is why Liu Tao went to Britain in person.

Although it was a bit troublesome, Mu Gui didn't plan to turn around and go back. Mu Gui felt that he was still a person who loved his motherland, and besides, he had to take care of the original body's wishes and ideals.

If his identity is European, he may ignore it, but since he is Chinese, he is very happy to be able to cheat this group of Europeans.

Liu Tao's personality is called black-bellied in modern terms. He has a pair of sharp and sharp eyes, so most of the time his eyes are squinted, making it difficult for people to see his eyes clearly, and the corners of his mouth are always raised. It's hard to see what he's thinking.

Except for a dozen or so Chinese on board, the rest were Europeans who had returned from panning for gold in the East.

Since the first Opium War in [-], the backs of the Chinese have never been straightened in the eyes of this group of Europeans. In addition, the history behind it also tells us that there are always some racists in the West who are not very good at thinking, so The treatment of the dozen or so Chinese on the boat was really not that good.

Fortunately, except for two real businessmen, the rest were brought by Liu Tao.

"Boss?" A middle-aged man who was also wearing a long gown drifted past the two Chinese businessmen from the corner of his eye, asking Mu Gui for his opinion.

"Don't worry about it. It has nothing to do with us to be treated like a dog and bullied to death. We didn't go to Great Britain for these people." Mu Gui inserted the long pipe back into his waist, flicked his sleeves with his fingers, and the corners of his mouth With a faint smile.

"Yes!"

Mu Gui is not a person who puts a smile on his face all the year round, even if it is a fake smile, it is just a habit left by his original body.

Five days later the steamer landed in London.

As soon as he landed, Mu Gui waved them away, and he took the short cheongsam girl along the bustling streets of London.

"elder brother?"

"It's okay, let's find a place to live first."

【World, how long do I need to stay here? 】Knowing the shortest time, he can make arrangements. As for the stay outside the required time, he still wants to pay off the cause and effect as soon as possible, so that he doesn't have to stay too long when he doesn't need to rest.

[About four years. 】

"Four years..." Mu Gui folded his hands into the wide sleeves of his gown, how many things can he do in four years?

Mu Gui's start in the UK was not smooth. At this time, the Chinese had no status here, and it was normal to be looked down upon. Fortunately, Mu Gui didn't want the eyes of those so-called gentlemen. Gangsters, didn't they just rely on their hands? Kung fu, the underground world follows the rule of respecting strength more than the above-ground world, which couldn't be better for Mu Gui.

Neither he nor the former Liu Tao are easy to provoke.

It took him half a year to establish a firm foothold in the east of London, and to get the underground forces in the east of the city in his hands. Then he passed on the news that the business can be officially opened. Oh, it's really good to think that the sterling is about to be in hand. .

"It's the earl, you're here, and if you're far away, what's your business?"

The man in standard aristocratic attire curled his mouth and smiled, "I just heard that there are newcomers here, let's pay a visit."

"I have no power or power, and I only have the territory created by my hands, which made the earl laugh." The servant brought tea, bowed and bowed, and then quietly retreated.

Mu Gui didn't dare to underestimate the man in front of him. Although he looked thin and gentle, their family also belonged to the dark world, but the other party was a nobleman who handled some shady matters for the queen, while he was a commoner.

Dealing with shameful things for the superior should be dealt with when the time comes, but I don't know what the man in front of me thinks, Mu Gui doesn't believe that he can't think of these obvious things.

In fact, Mu Gui's guess was completely correct.

[He was indeed dealt with by the Queen of England for doing too many of these things. The Queen does not need to know her so many dark secrets to be alive. Many people in the upper echelons of the UK know what he did, but they chose to ignore it because of the Queen's relationship. But after his death, his nine-year-old son was miserable. ] The world muttered in his mind, obviously he knew the Earl in front of him very well, 【Their family is not popular in the upper circles of England. 】

【It's not important. In fact, it would be nice to be able to cooperate with him, but I don't know how long he can live. I don't want to find a partner who dies within two days. Hearing what you said, he seems to be dying? ] With such an understanding, it seems that the earl in front of him is also the person Liu Tao might have contacted in the first place, otherwise the world would not know so clearly, even knowing what the future of the other party's son will be, and it is possible that the person who contacts Liu Tao is not him but his son?

[Xiao Mu, you really don't want to know that information? 】

[I don't need to say what is not important. 】

The world thought about it, and it seemed that it was really nothing important and would not endanger Mu Gui's safety. If Mu Gui wanted to know something, he would naturally ask him, so he would not talk too much.

Mu Gui had a very happy conversation with the young earl, and he didn't send him away until evening. As soon as the door was closed, Mu Gui withdrew the smile on his face, not talking about others, anyway, the world didn't understand what they were talking about.

He is a good person, both in character and self-cultivation, which is a pity.

【Xiao Mu, if you think it's a pity, you can save him. 】

[Why should I save?The nation that is still suffering today has not been saved, how to save such a stranger?I haven't been kind enough to think of myself as a savior. 】

The world shrank its neck and stopped talking.

"However, it is possible to have a short-term cooperation. After all, it is an earl. There are not many earls in the whole of England. It is much more convenient to have a noble status to support it, especially this kind of earl who is active underground."

If you ask Mu Gui if he will feel uneasy about doing such a business, Mu Gui's answer is no!

He didn't try to lure others to smoke opium. Although he was doing underground business, he sold it to others based on the principle of what you want and what I want. As for how others use it, it has nothing to do with him.

Moreover, these Westerners have never had a disturbed conscience, so why should he be disturbed?As for ordinary people who were accidentally tricked... Heh!Mu Gui never thought about it.

Not only did he know that they were innocent, but he also knew that those Chinese who were tricked into taking opium and thinking it was a fetish were also innocent.

Mu Gui tucked the hem of his clothes into his belt, picked up the Tang knife beside the training field and waved it.

Liu Tao hardly opens his eyes completely, but there is one situation where he always keeps them open, and that is when practicing swords.

The too sharp eyes almost freeze the surrounding air.

Mu Guizheng was training, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a slender figure approaching and attacked without hesitation. Tang Dao was held firmly by two big hammers, and then he put down the saber with the corner of his eye twitching.

"Brother?" Seeing that he stopped, the other party seemed a little dissatisfied, and swung two big hammers at Mu Gui. Mu Gui had no choice but to continue beating her.

After 15 minutes, the last hammer came out, and the two stopped.

Mu Gui looked at the girl who was going to pick up the weapon and helplessly helped her forehead.

He really didn't understand why a girl with a good figure and not a hot personality would use two gold-plated hammers to ruin her image. Not to mention girls, even men seldom use such weapons, so he didn't understand why she would Prefer this thing.

Every time I see her hitting someone with a hammer, I can't bear to look directly at her. She is obviously a gentle and quiet oriental girl!

"It lasted for 15 minutes this time, it's good." Mu Gui put Tang Dao on the weapon rack, picked up a towel to wipe the sweat off his face, took the water handed by the girl and said, "However, you really don't Are you ready to change your weapon?"

The girl didn't speak, just stood quietly and looked at him.

"Blue cat, you can go out more and don't have to follow me all the time, I won't be in danger."

The girl still didn't speak, so Mu Gui didn't force her when she saw this.

The other party was with him almost 24 hours a day, but Lanmao and Liu Tao grew up together, and later lost their relatives because of the Opium War, and they depended on each other for many years. When they were young, they couldn't eat enough. Later, Liu Tao joined the Youth Gang and their lives improved.

I just don’t know if it’s the shadow left by my childhood. The blue cat seldom speaks, always expressionless, almost desireless, and just follows him as a thug all day long. People who don’t know her will almost think that she is No feelings.

Blue Cat has a kind personality, but it is extremely important to her to raise her up by the original body. If it is the original body's request, she will not hesitate even if it is to kill someone. Because of her attitude, Mu Gui never asks her to kill someone. .

For Blue Cat, Liu Tao is the whole world.

The author has something to say:

There are two opinions about Liu Tao on the Internet, one is that he is a high-ranking member of the Youth Gang, and the other is that he is the leader of the gang.
