"Sir."
The next morning, Su Xiu came to Frank's dining room for breakfast as usual.
The three Shelby brothers stood nervously in front of Su Xiu.
After all, today was their first day of work.
John looked excited, while Arthur and Tommy looked much calmer.
"Tommy."
Su Xiu put down his knife and fork and said slowly," I remember you said that you were working for the gang at the dock?”
"Yes, sir."
Tommy said hurriedly," But we will find them to quit today.”
"Withdraw? Why did you quit?"
Su Xiu shook his head and asked with a smile.
"Then, you mean…"
Tommy looked at Su Xiu carefully.
"Tommy."
Su Xiu wiped his mouth under the considerate clothes of the blonde maid and said casually," I need guards. I need someone to protect my manor and my house. So, do you understand?"
"Of course, sir."
Tommy nodded silently." You need a lot of manpower, not just the three of us.”
"So,"
Su Xiu snapped his fingers and said leisurely," I have a task for you. You have to set up your own gang within a week. At the same time, you have to make a name for yourself in the London area. Is that okay?"”
Tommy trembled. He understood what Su Xiu meant.
"Of course,"
Su Xiu said calmly," You can also refuse. You don't have to do anything dangerous. You just have to be my guard and protect me.”
"No problem, sir!"
Tommy said without hesitation," I'll set up my own gang within a week.”
"Very good, your aura is not bad."
Su Xiu nodded in satisfaction." You can do whatever you want at any time, but I need to see a satisfactory answer in a week.”
"Of course, sir."
Tommy nodded solemnly and left the restaurant.
"You want them to be your black gloves?”
Cecilia, who was sitting next to Su Xiu, suddenly spoke.
"Yes."
Su Xiu nodded without hiding anything." Our business also needs such people to protect it.”
"I see."
Cecilia lowered her head, thinking.
Most nobles had their own black gloves and white gloves, and most of the black gloves were from the underground gangs in London.
The reason why the gangs of the British Empire could run rampant was not because they were powerful.
Instead, it was because these forces would obediently abide by some agreed upon 'rules' over a long period of time.
The most important rule was that they had to become the black glove of a certain noble or capital.
As for the use of the black gloves, it was naturally to deal with some dirty things for the people behind it.
Just like the two biggest gangs in London-
One was the Italian gang, and the other was the Jewish-American gang.
These two gangs were backed by nobles and capital that needed their services.
This was no secret among the nobles.
Although Cecilia was proud, she wasn't a young lady who didn't know anything about the world. She knew about these secrets.
She did not think that Su Xiu's actions were inappropriate.
After all, with Su Xiu's current status, he indeed needed some people to help him deal with some matters that he couldn't handle personally.
"Don't think so much."
Su Xiu rubbed the girl's soft long hair." If you're late, go back first. These are not things you should consider."”
"Yes."
Cecilia nodded with a complicated expression, but she still nodded obediently.
He stood up and walked back through the street with a few maids.
"Su."
Frank walked over and asked in confusion," I admit that Tommy is not bad, but do you really believe that they can succeed? What if they fail to complete the mission you gave them?”
"If they fail to complete the mission, what do you think I will lose?”
Su Xiu didn't answer Frank's question. Instead, he asked with a smile.
“……”
Frank frowned and thought for a moment. Then, he realized that Su Xiu would not suffer any losses.
Even if Tommy Shelby was killed by the gang because of this, how much loss would it cause to Su Xiu?
In the end, they were just hired.
Would Su Xiu be heartbroken and cry bitterly because of his death?
This was obviously impossible.
If he couldn't do it.
He had just wasted a week, and after that, he could find someone else to replace him.
In the end.
This was just a small matter that Su Xiu did casually.
"It's good that you know what you're doing."
Frank didn't say anything else. He just shook his head and returned to the front desk.
In an alley not far from the restaurant, a fierce argument broke out between the three brothers.
"Tommy! Are you crazy?"
Arthur grabbed Tommy's collar tightly and pressed him against the wall with a roar." How are you going to build a gang in one week and seven days? Do you think that just because you shout on the street, a large number of people will come to you? What right do you have? Because of the clothes you're wearing or because you're Mr. Smith's dog?”
"Calm down, Arthur."
Tommy's voice was unusually calm." I already have a plan.”
"What plan?"
"Kill Bob."
"You're really f * cking crazy!"
Arthur was in disbelief.
Bob was the boss of their original gang.
They weren't famous gangs, and they weren't even fit to carry the shoes of the Italian and Jewry gangs.
But even so, they were still gangsters, the kind with hundreds of people under them!
"I'm not crazy."
Tommy pushed Arthur away, tidied his clothes, and said in a deep voice," As long as we get rid of Bob, we can replace him and integrate the gang. This way, he could easily complete Mr. Smith's mission.”
"You still dare to say that you're not crazy!"
Arthur lowered his voice, but it still sounded like a roar." Bob has killed before. He has at least killed several people! Moreover, he had at least five or six underlings following him at all times. How could he kill him?”
"Only five or six people."
Tommy said without hesitation," You deal with three and I'll deal with two.”
"I can handle one!"
John said excitedly.
"John, are you crazy too?"
Arthur looked at the excited John in shock.
"No!"
John couldn't hide the excitement on his face." I just think it will be very exciting!”
"Arthur."
When Tommy saw that his third brother supported his decision, he chuckled." You're the boxing champion of Stockholm. It's just three or five people. Are you afraid?”
"I am very good at fighting."
Arthur said angrily," But what's the use of fighting? That damned Bob has a gun! We won't even be able to get close to him. We'll be beaten into a plug by him!”
"We have guns too."
Tommy said without hesitation as if he had expected it.
"Mr. Su?"
Arthur's expression changed as he suddenly thought of something.
They were no longer hooligans who were helping the gang look after the warehouse at the dock for a meager salary, but were working for a big shot.
If he had a gun, then perhaps…
"Why?"
Tommy Shelby looked at his brother seriously.
"Damn it, I must be crazy!”
Arthur cursed and punched the wall.
