“But I didn’t have an accurate time. You arrived here two hours later, so I bought some things on the way, and happened to run into you,” Xiao Jin said with a smile.
Xiao Jin was totally frank in front of Gu Chaoyan. No matter what she wanted to know, Xiao Jin would always answer her, though the answer could be quite straightforward.
Gu Chaoyan threw a look at Xiao Jin who was riding a horse.
Her face twitched.
So what he meant was that she liked to sleep in, and she did sleep in longer than he had imagined?
!!
That was not something Gu Chaoyan could not counter.
She pursed her lips.
Actually, Xiao Jin was right. She was delayed because of the Min Family. If not for the visitor from the Min Family, she would have arrived around lunchtime.
That was Xiao Jin’s merit. Because of his careful observation, and the way he thought and believed, he could make it to where he was now.
So she was extremely happy that she had entrusted Xiao Jin with missions.
It had been a couple of months since she met Xiao Jin for the first time. Xiao Jin had changed a great deal, and he looked more open.
Gu Chaoyan was very happy to see one of her employees becoming so much better.
Xiao Jin took them to a relatively quiet alleyway.
There was a large yard in the alleyway.
Xiao Jin bought the yard directly, by Gu Chaoyan’s order. Gu Chaoyan had never seen this one before, but she was very satisfied by the yard. Xiao Jin was always good at what he needed to do.
As they came to the gate of the yard Xiao Jin offered his hand to help Gu Chaoyan, but she hopped off the wagon directly.
Xiao Jin smiled.
He almost forgot that his Elder Miss was different from ordinary girls. She was not that weak.
He smiled as he led Gu Chaoyan into the yard.
He said as he walked. “They should have already eaten lunch so they are receiving training on the playground.”
“…”
“Both men and women will receive martial arts, and they need to be well-trained so as to run a business.”
“…”
“As for the others, they could be trained for what fits them.”
“…”
“Sword Three says that within one year’s time, they should be useful,” Xiao Jin said as he pointed forward.
Gu Chaoyan watched those people who were being trained on the playground.
There was an equal number of women and men, some old and some young. Gu Chaoyan bought those children who were poor and were sold as slaves, or got them directly from the orphanges.
Xiao Jin had done a great job – he was a man but he chose women to join them too.
There were both men and women here.
Gu Chaoyan did not care about genders. She only needed suitable people.
When she came to the playground Xiao Jin smiled brightly.
He clapped his hands, and told them to look at him.
When all the children were looking at him, Xiao Jin said with a firm voice, “This is your future master. Greet your master!”
Those children greeted her.
They were not kneeling down, but greeted with fists. That was what Gu Chaoyan wanted to see.
However, several of them did not want to greet her.
A slightly older man said to Xiao Jin with an unconvinced tone, “Brother Xiao, why is our master a woman?”
