[comprehensive] die with peace
Chapter 26
"Lanlan, don't cry, listen to me."
"Half of the money earned from opium was exchanged into gold and sent back to the country, but the time was wrong and it was not taken out. It was the start-up money I left for the future Chinese people, and your dowry was also in it."
"Tsk, it's just a pity that I couldn't go back..."
The middle-aged beautiful woman on the bed got up and opened the curtains. The maid opened the door in time and put the soaked Longjing on the table. "Ma'am, Mr. Ruan has sent a secret letter."
"Understood." Some hoarse female voice with a kind of metallic coldness, Liu Lan picked up the cup and took a sip, then waved her down.
Although she knew it was not good to drink tea on an empty stomach early in the morning, Liu Lan didn't bother to change the habit she had developed over the years.
They all evacuated from Great Britain at the beginning, only Ruan Qiang and a small number of people who followed Ruan Qiang hid, waiting for an opportunity to continue to do what they had done. That time, they only lost one person.
That was the elder brother who picked her up and brought her up.
Liu Lan's life was not very good when she was a child, because the golden-eyed family has always been disliked by the villagers, and she was faintly rejected, but later, the village was destroyed, and Liu Tao, who was not a few years older than her, picked her up.
Today's Europe has become a powder keg, which is very dangerous. Even in the east, Liu Lan's news has always been accurate and timely. She knows that the conflict between the old and new European nobles is becoming more and more obvious, and a big war is about to break out , but she doesn't know how many people will be swept in. At this time, she only hopes that Ruan Qiang will get out of this war.
"Lan, see Xin'an.
There is bound to be a major war in Europe, Britain has been at the helm for too long, and the kids down there are growing up and wanting more.Forgive me for not being able to follow your arrangement. This time is also a rare opportunity for us. We need to profit from this war and earn more capital for our weakening motherland. No one else can do it like me Rest assured, only I can better cooperate with your actions in China and guess what your next action will be.
I hope I can still visit the leader with you. Please remember to send flowers to the leader in Qingming.
— Ruan Qiang. "
Liu Lan closed the letter and lit it on a candle, watching it burn to ashes.
The children who used to follow her elder brother Liu Tao have grown up, and most of them followed her. During this period, some of them went to Great Britain again, and went to Ruan Qiang's side.
Now that Ruan Qiang is getting older, he should find someone to take over his work there slowly, but this time he will come alone.
Too much involved.
Liu Lan, who is nearly 50 years old, will be calm now when he thinks of his brother, but Ruan Qiang always remembers that his leader is only Liu Tao. After his brother died, he continued to do what his brother asked him to do there, and he never returned to China. .
Seeing that he is getting old, the senior members of the gang hope that he can return to China and spend his old age in peace, and don't continue to be active in the undercurrents of the British underground world at such an old age, but Ruan Qiang has declined the kindness of the senior management time and time again.
His daughter was tricked and sold by an opium-addicted uncle, and his wife was hanged at home because of this. When he found his daughter, he only had time to see her for the last time. In his whole life, the words "sleeping his old age peacefully" did not exist.
Liu Lan stood in front of the wall after breakfast and looked at the world map pasted on the wall. Finally, her gaze fell on the land where she had lived for several years.
There is Ruan Qiang there, she does not need to go there, she needs to go to another place, so - France.
The current relationship between Germany and France is sharp. France lost to Germany in the Franco-Prussian War and lost its position as the hegemon in Central Europe. As far as she knows, Germany is not prepared to continue to take back their things after France becomes stronger. Actively develop armaments, in this regard, France is much worse.
In this war, the hat of the foolish money and speed on the head of France cannot be dropped.
Ruan Qiang was in charge of opium as early as 20 years ago. In the past 20 years, Liu Lan has developed an arms business.
The arms dealer who once looked down on her because she was a woman is now a tall grave. As a Medusa in the arms industry, Liu Lan has long since changed her nationality.
Those who are not of my race must have a different heart. This sentence is not limited to China. For better activities, Liu Lan doesn't mind the loss at all. It's just that she always lives in China when she has nothing to do. As for that Zhang's French nationality... Heh!
"Now there are more and more young people in the gang...Sasha, pack your things and go to France with me."
Wearing sunglasses to cover inorganic eyes, Liu Lan always finds it funny when she recalls running around in a short cheongsam with cat ears and looking back at the photos on the table, "Liu Guang is easy to put People throw it, cherries are red, plantains are green, I almost don’t remember how you stole steamed buns from me when I was a child, brother.”
For 30 years, Liu Lan took out the dowry that Liu Tao left for her, and grew up little by little. She was never ready to marry in her life, nor would she be suitable.
"Madam Lan, you are back."
"Peter, is there anyone coming to visit during my vacation?" Liu Lan handed the coat to the servant next to him, and asked the butler who was guarding here while walking to the study.
"Many people know that you go to the East for vacation every winter, so they avoid this time to come to you. There are only some greeting letters. Would you like to read them?" The butler, who looked in his 40s, leaned over and asked respectfully.
"No need, throw it away."
In the eyes of those who don't know, Liu Lan is a strict oriental woman, introverted and mysterious. This kind of personality is not suitable for France, which likes romance, but Germany. They don't know Liu Lan who followed Liu Tao more than 30 years ago. How cute.
"By the way, the little granddaughter of the Viscount Cancia has been found, and she is currently being taken care of by the housekeeper of the Viscount's mansion. I heard that she will go to her British aunt soon. Do you want to meet Madam?"
"No, the Viscount Kancia and I are just a cooperative relationship. Since the Viscount is dead, the cooperation is over." There have been rumors that the Viscount Kancia admired her over the years, but Liu Lan knew very well that it was not her that Kancia admired, but The business and resources in her hands have always been nothing more than superficially friendly exchanges between them, and Liu Lan has never lowered her vigilance.
The situation is becoming more and more tense, and more and more people from the upper echelons of France are looking for Liu Lan to cooperate, but there are underground rules, and now Liu Lan herself has a modest title in France, they can't do anything to her .
She still remembers that her brother Liu Tao once pointed to the cultural relics in the British Museum and smiled meaningfully.
Antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times.
Liu Lan has her own plan in mind, and the cooperation with these Westerners is not just about making money.
She wants to make money, and if she has the opportunity, she will not give up getting back what should belong to China. In the end, importing arms to the country and supporting the country at critical moments are all in her plan.
Hard work is hard work, but Liu Lan is very satisfied.
Hearing that Viscount Kancia's granddaughter wanted to visit him before leaving, Liu Lan agreed without much hesitation.
Lana Kancia led her deacon into the living room under the leadership of the butler, but the girl in her teens had a serious expression, not at all like a child of this age, "Hello, madam, grandpa has a relic here, I think it should be in your hands, it belongs to you."
As soon as Liu Lan came in from Lana Kancia, she put down her glass, took off her sunglasses and stared at the young man behind Kancia. The boy looked up at her. His blue eyes were still as beautiful as before, like sea water.
Liu Lan waved the butler down, and then said, "We haven't seen each other for 30 years, little count."
"Sveck?" Lana turned around.
"Long time no see, blue cat." The little earl did not deny his identity, but at this time he was no longer some Earl of Phantomhine, but a demon who traded with people in exchange for the soul of the other party.
He was supposed to have his soul eaten by Sebastian after the murder angel Angela died, but the pendant that Liu Tao gave to the butler before leaving saved him once, and then Sebastian never had another chance.
Since their contract has not been eliminated, Sebastian can no longer get rid of the former master of the little earl. Although his status in the devil world is not low, the little earl will always be his master, so that every time Sebastian Bastian hated Liu Tao so much.
Although the little count became his lover, Sebastian did not regret that he hesitated at the beginning and didn't kill the little count when he was a human, turning him into a demon so that he had an extra master, but he took the initiative It's not the same as being passive.
This was the first time the little Earl went out to look for food by himself, and he met Liu Lan unexpectedly.
The old man met, and the little count found himself speechless.
Liu Lan also had nothing to say, but couldn't help but think of her brother's life in England when her brother took her. In the end, all words turned into a sigh, and she waved her hand wearily, letting Lana leave.
"Although my brother planted it on you, in general, he has never been sorry to you. He has done what he promised your father. Look, he is actually soft-hearted. He can do even better." Leaning back in the chair, he whispered.
The little count who had already walked to the door listened to all the words.
I know, otherwise I wouldn't have pretended not to have noticed the Oriental in that cabin.

Liu Lan, French-Chinese.
During the First World War and the Second World War, it supported countless guns to the country, which minimized the losses of China, which was backward in technology, in the two world wars, and strongly supported China in the post-war agreement.
At that time, known as Medusa, she was already the queen of the underground in Europe, with many terrifying arms resources in her hands, and successfully influenced the signing of the agreement with one person.
At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a number of cultural relics lost in China were donated.
After death, the underground forces behind him are automatically disbanded.
He was 89 years old.
The author has something to say:
no regrets
As for the laments of the little angels who "died again", this is actually inevitable. As long as Xiao Mu is not going to take a vacation, he will die when he leaves. The only difference is whether this death will save people.
It's really just a matter of convenience, it's like walking on the road, just picking up someone else, if you say it's because of kindness, it's really not much =-=
How can I be so self-sacrificing? I generally don’t set my protagonist as the Virgin, because that will only make me hate iron and steel. I hope that the person I meet is the Virgin, but I don’t want the person I love to be, Because people who are too kind are always more likely to suffer, okay?
By the way, what do you think of the Legacy of the Three Kings?Unit [-] wants to write about his perspective
