You Call This a Police Officer? He's Greedier and More Brutal Than a Warlord

[Republican Era] [Warlord Era] [Turbulent Times] [High Status and Power] [Explosive and Exhilarating]

If money can buy it, it's called business. If it can't, someone has to disappear.

The turbulent Republican Era!

From the start, a local gang boss blocks the police station entrance and tosses down two silver dollars to humiliate him, ordering him to act like a dog.

Gu Jianyuan laughs. “I am the law.”

“Ding! The Black and White Authority System has been activated!”

From then on, the Republican Era loses a timid police inspector who tried to smooth things over, and gains a ruthless scourge.

On the legitimate side, he is greedy, lecherous, and a shameless flatterer. His superior wants money? Ten gold bars are enough to knock him senseless. He uses the dead man's money to buy power over the living!

In the underworld, he looks out for himself above all else. The gangs refuse to submit? He mows them down with machine guns, wipes out entire families on rainy nights, and seizes their million-dollar fortunes without mercy!

He tramples county magistrates, destroys merchant guilds, battles warlords, and takes control of the shadow networks.

From a lowly inspector in a remote county, he kills his way up to become Commander-in-Chief of the garrison forces, the uncrowned king of half of China.

Years later, with warlords battling across the country, Gu Jianyuan sits in his mansion, smoking a cigar with a famous beauty in his arms, and calmly gives the order:

“The military handles war. I, Gu Jianyuan, set the rules. In the underworld and the legitimate world alike, everyone must kneel and welcome me!”

The Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Statistics Bureau? They're all eyes and ears for Master Gu!

Foreigners in the concessions? Break the rules, and they'll be dragged off to be burned alive, just like anyone else!
